LLMs help a lot of users with making FOR loops and things like that. At least it's been the case for me, I'd never tried to use PowerShell before but with a bit of LLM guidance was able to cobble together some useful (for me) one-liner commands to do things like "use this CSV of file names and pixel locations, and make cropped PNG thumbnails of these locations from these images".

Stuff like that which regular users often do by hand, they can ask an LLM for the command (usually just a few lines of a scripting language if they only know the magic words to use).

The only people I see complaining about AI are those that have the most to lose.

My wife and I are both paid to work on AI products and we both think the whole thing’s only sorta useful in-fact. Not nothing, but… not that much, either.

I’m not worried about AI taking our jobs, I’m worried about the market crash when the reality of the various failed (… to actually reduce payroll) or would’ve-been-cheaper-and-better-without-AI initiatives the two of us have been working on non-stop since this shit started break through the hype of investment and the music stops.

Using it isn't optional though, its forced through corporate policy. If my boss would shut up about it that would be enough for me
