I’m still not so sure on that part. Maybe, eventually? But it feels like we are still trying to find a problem for it to solve.
Has there been any actual, life transformative use cases from an LLM outside of code generation? I can certainly sit here and say how impactful Claude code has been for me, but I honestly can’t say the same thing for the other users where I work. In fact, the quality of emails has went down since we unleashed Copilot to the world, and so far no one has reported any real productivity gains.

Content analysis and summarization is a big win in my view.
Having also been around during the emergence of the personal computer revolution I'm reminded of how having a home computer could be helpful for keeping recipes and balancing checkbooks -- it was the promise of "someday" that fueled optimism. Then the killer apps of spreadsheets, word processing, and desktop publishing sealed the deal.
Following that analogy we're at the Apple ][ stage -- it works and shows capabilities but there's likely so much more ahead.
