If you told me that LLMs should be trusted to drive cars or operate any other weaponry, I'd tell you it's never going to happen. But they're not: the jobs they'll be doing are the liberal arts/management jobs that have a tremendous fudge factor, close is more than good enough, and failure has few consequences[*]. If an LLM doesn't give me what I want, I can tweak it and try again; absolutely no sweat. Difficult to do after a fatal car accident.
edit: and the ability to construct intention from input has to make them ideal for interfaces (from an ignorant layman's pov.) Is anybody using generative AI to create interfaces for prosthetic limbs or other peripherals? Search engines offering them in order to interface with the internet seems like the least interesting thing to do with them, although (as I mentioned above) with artistic/creative output it's difficult to define failure.
