> They’re not “better” than mature OSS (in fact they are often brittle and narrowly scoped) but they solve my exact problem faster than learning how to install, configure and use a new tool. Maybe this is an artifact of just having been around for a long time, but it's extremely rare that I need to use a new tool to solve a new problem. 99.5% of the time, the existing ones are just fine. In the rare cases they aren't, I'll write up a quick script or program to do the job. I don't use genAI for that because I can do it faster and better myself. In any case, my answer to the main question is no, LLMs have had no impact on my use of OSS.
