    Your anecdote checks out with a study I heard about. Office teams that were using LLMs for a few months reported that results are faster, but editing took longer than doing it conventionally in the first place. Generating boiler plate code and documentation could be another very useful use case in software dev, and I don’t really care if that’s used. Like in your use case, spell/grammar checking, using LLMs is a natural development of the tools that we already had. Your text processors marks errors, who cares if it’s powered by an LLM or by a huge heuristic rule set?
