First, I’m glad you made it to the fediverse Loon-god, you’ll always be a Warrior’s legend.
Second, anecdotally even the crappy results generated by LLMs have value for me. Writing emails, jira tickets, documentation, etc. are all incredibly painful for me. I’ll start an email and suddenly folding laundry I’ve ignored for 2 days is the most important thing in the world for me. Then the email that should take 5 minutes takes me an hour and turns out being way to long and dense.
With an LLM I give it a few bullet points with general details, it spits out a paragraph or so, I edit the paragraph for tone and add specific details, and then I’m done in about 5 minutes.
LLMs help me to complete tasks that I really really don’t want to do, which has a lot of value to me. They aren’t going to replace me at my job, but they’ve have really upped my productivity.
