Saw your comment earlier, soon after you posted it, and was not going to reply, because others had already done so, but on second thought, I decided to reply, because I realised I had something more to add, that others had not mentioned (much):
>And Python got popular cause of LLM AI thing.
Python got wildly, maybe exponentially more popular because of LLM AI thing (sic), but only in the last few years.
There, fixed that for you.
Much before that, Python was already quite popular for a long time (although it was slow to take off initially), and was used in a lot of areas, including web dev - Django (Disqus, Instagram?), Flask, TurboGears, Pyramid, Tornado (FriendFeed), Zope, Plone, and many more web frameworks, and apps built on them, PDF generation (ReportLab, more), scientific programming (Numeric, NumPy, SciPy, more), data science, ActiveState, system administration (e.g. on some Linuxes, at least Ubuntu, IIRC), and even GUI app development (PyQt, Tkinter, wxPython). I read somewhere, quite a while back, that the Dropbox GUI clients on both windows and Linux, maybe on Mac OS too, were written using Python and wxPython.
Google some of those project names, and see the start dates of those projects. That will give you a clue about how long it has been in use.
Google was using Python a lot from many years back, on the front end of its web properties, apart from other uses that I would not know about.
And tons of startups and corporates used Python from long back, and still do.
I know some of these things, because I have worked with Python from a long time, starting with v1.5, with light use, and with heavier use from v2.0 or so.
