   @thomasfuchs I've had a number of coworkers use them to generate templates like risk models, SteerCo charters and things like that.

   I've used it to brainstorm project names because I've found catchier names get more funding and attention

     @thomasfuchs isn’t that similar to asking “why write unit tests if you are writing the code”? We also do code reviews because a lot of people are worse than LLMs :)

     As others mentioned it basically comes down to being worth it when the cost of synthesis is higher than the cost of validation/fixing.

     Also, we’re mostly all in learning mode I think.

     @thomasfuchs I had a code LLM turned on in vscode while I was learning a new language from a book and it was autofilling in the code for me. At first I thought it was cute how it knew the book contents, but then I realized it was actually robbing me of the actual learning process. Turns out the act of writing out those examples myself was important for the way I learn.
