All of those feel like gimmicks imo. Fun, sure. But exciting? Revolutionary?


I like to to use LLMs for rude poetry.

No one is going to get a billion dollar investment due to that. It's why all the corporate speak and marketing is harping on about productivity, robot takeover and deus ex machina in corporate language.

Normal people will use it for creative writing aid, scrapbooking and other extremely unprofitable non-technical stuff.


I mean those were the items my non technical friends shared with me so far...

Personally - i was able to get mockups of interior designs based on the photo of a building under construction using chatgpt - this would've cost me both time and money if i went to a real designer.

Gemini has been summarising meetings i could not attend (scheduling conflicts etc...) and saving me from hours of watching meeting recordings.

I was really skeptical of things because of the horrible results I've had 2 years ago with copilot and chatgpt, but things have improved drastically. To the point that it's already empowering certain people/jobs while having the opposite effect on others.

Is it perfect? Nope. The mockups did have weird glitches. But they were 75% there and good enough for the task I wanted. The meeting notes were as good as a real human.

So it's definitely eroding more of these kinds of jobs and so we are
