@peter I feel like one of the best use cases I've come across for LLM coding is for like, having it write a script for a semi-tech-literate person to accomplish a task that then can fade into the ether. E.g., develop a script to extract this data from this set of PDFs I have.

As you said, maintaining and distributing software is not easy and it's not something LLMs are equipped to handle from what I can see.

@joe yep! it's useful for scripting and one-off tasks
