Would you trust a fresh out of college intern to do it? That's been my metric for relying on LLM's
Yup this is the way to think about LLMs, infinite eager interns willing to try anything and never trusting themselves to say "I dont know"
It might actually help the intern if they use it:

I've been speculating that people raving about these things are just bad at their jobs for a bit, I've never been able to get anything useful out of an llm.
If you have a job that involves diagnosing, or a wide array of different problems that change day to day it's extremely useful. If you do the same thing over and over again it may not be as much.
