IMO LLMs are another form of computer. A computer turns everything into bits and processes things from rendering to money. A LLM turns everything into language tokens and processes different kinds if things.
LLMs are still very primitive for their potential, kind of like logic gates.
For example, computers gave us (A)D&D games, wargaming, and the whole RPG genre that's too tedious to play on paper. LLMs are making RP-heavy systems like Cypher and FATE possible.
On a more serious level, they're a pretty good search engine and can process all kinds of information. I expect the next generation of use to be diagnosis tools, like debugging, medical, fixing cards, reading your contracts and so on. They're not replacing expert humans yet, but are an extra tool to reduce error.
