LLMs are that 'blurry jpg of the internet' but now also more finetunable/specialized.
I'm going to look at siccing some LLMs on old Jenkins errors today, ideally it will give me more time to spend on building things (and hopefully less fires later).
I obviously don't expect it to magically fix everything but I have a good idea of what they're capable of, what they need help with, and what their pitfalls are
I can now have some scripts and some "agents" scan through 250GB of logfiles and do various sanity test things and either report back or make a branch and try to fix it, before i even need to look at it. It costs almost nothing and if it finishes early I can have it "go do the same thing but in rolling 3 month windows to see wtf happened when"
FWIW I think LLMs are more powerful for the language side of things. I get a lot of the programming improvement from python/metaprogramming/etc - but the combination is like having a group of interns you can make do a bunch of tedious/shit work that nobody wants to do.
