This vibes with my experience as well. In terms of actual long term value, this kind of educational exploration is promising. It acts, in a way, as a domain expert who understands your language and can help you orient yourself in a domain which is otherwise difficult to penetrate.
I also am happy that language-as-gate-keeping, which is plaguing so many fields both in academia and business, is going to quickly be “democratized”, in the best sense of the word. LLMs can help you decipher text written in eg law speak, and it also can translate your own words into a form that will get grand poobah to take you seriously. Kind of like a spell/grammar checker on steroids.
