These probably aren't tasks you need done but;

LLMs are pretty good at translation between human languages which makes sense since they are language models after all. They are better at this any any other technology.

The state of the art image ones can also probably do OCR and handwriting recognition better than any other software though may be expensive to run in large volume. But if you need to take picture of a notebook page with your camera phone an LLM can quickly OCR it.

Not quite true; LLMs are very expensive to run; bert or other tranformer specfically built for translation can be cheaper to run.
