What do you guys use LLMs for, that is proven to work well with them? (lemmy.world)

When I search this topic online, I always find either wrong information or advertising lies. So what is actually something that LLMs can do very well, as in being actually useful and not just outputing a nonsensical word salad that sounds coherent.

Results

So basically from what I've read, most people use it for natural language processing problems.

Example: turn this infodump into a bullet point list, or turn this bullet point list into a coherent text, help me with rephrasing this text, word association, etc.

Other people use it for simple questions that it can answer with a database of verified sources.

Also, a few people use it as struggle duck, basically helping alleviate writers block.

Thanks guys.

JIRA queries, rules, automations, etc. Suggestions for how to make my rage-fueled communications sound more reasonable and professional Meeting Summaries. Not having to take notes is HUGE.

Meeting notes are the ideal use case for AI, in the sense that everyone thinks someone needs to write them but almost nobody ever goes back and actually reads them.

But when I got curious and read the AI generated ones (the ones from Zoom at least)... According to the AI I had agreed on an action that hadn't been even discussed in the meeting and we apparently spent half of the meeting discussing weather conditions in the various locations (AI seems to have a hard time telling the difference between initial greetings or jokes and the actual discussion, but in this one it became weirdly fixated with those initial 5 minutes)

This is one area where, at least for me, CoPilot is very good. In most other areas, CoPilot is not very good.
