I use it all the time to spark my creativity. Something like “I need to write an email about this and that to such and such people. Give me five suggestions”

It also generally work great for tech support, and lowers the skill requirement for installing and maintaining a Linux distro. Nowadays I will usually just redirect tech support questions from family members to an LLM.
Just because it won’t solve cancer in 10 years like the tech bros preach doesn’t mean the tech is without uses.

I run tabletop roleplaying adventures and LLMs have proven to be great "brainstorming buddies" when planning them out. I bounce ideas back and forth, flesh them out collaboratively, and have the LLM speak "in character" to give me ideas for what the NPCs would do.
They're not quite up to running the adventure themselves yet, but it's an awesome support tool.

Yeah, it’s really tiring when there are so many good uses from both image LLMs and chat LLMs. They shouldn’t be used to produce a final product, but it can get 50-80% of the way there.
Just their use as upscalers (which I know isn’t a LLM) are magical, and far far better than JPEG compression. With the right upscaler, you can double the size of an image and it looks just fine.
Instead, we are far too engrossed in how “AI is taking our jobs” and shit. No, AI isn’t taking your jobs. The greedy corporate assholes are taking your jobs.
