Such as? Just curious what people use LLMs for.
I handle so many text files in my job and LLMs help make the scripts for me to handle these text files. I know it is important to at least know stuff like regex but I am not a superhuman. It is difficult for me to heavily specialize in scripting while also specialize in the technicalities of my job. To help show why it is difficult to specialize scripting, I work with hardware description languages which have a different syntax from scripting languages. Handling different languages causes confusion on the proper syntax even with a basic if else statement because the syntax is different between languages.
Aside from this, it can also help me automate describing what the sequences I created in the file for easy documentation. I just have to instruct the "patterns" it needs to look for. I just need to proofread the output and do minor fixes.
