I've seen people claiming - with a straight face - that mechanical refactoring is a good use-case for LLM-based tools. Well, sed was developed in 1974 and - according to Wikipedia - first shipped in UNIX version 7 in 1979. On modern machines it can process files at speeds of several GB/s and will not randomly introduce errors while processing them. It doesn't cost billions, a subscription or internet access. It's there on your machine, fully documented. What are we even talking about?
@gabrielesvelto This parallels the discourse that says "LLMs are useful to automatically send template emails dozens of times a day". My Brother In Ohm, email templates have existed for decades at a fraction of the cost of a single token. You are just Dunning-Krügering yourself into thinking that the idea has just been solved today because you had never paid any attention to this problem until the day you wanted to search for an use case for a toy that you want to have an excuse for buying.
