You can take “justifiable” to mean whatever you feel it means in this context. e.g. Morally, artistically, environmentally, etc.

I find llms useful for some things,
Sometimes the duckduckgo ai summary of results can include a source I was looking for that was buried in the results (I don’t trust the ai much since it literally cited Ireland’s Nazi party uncritically once, but it does link to sources). Formatting text is also really useful, or turning something from csv to a markdown table and vice versa.
Its also able to extract text from images a lot better than “dumb” ocrs (which I still use for basic images), and can format it in a certain way (e.g., take this screenshot from an ebook and format it as a quizlet).
I have try seeing what they’re like for programming every once in a while, and my verdict is still shit. They can do very basic stuff thats basically regurgitating functions that were written before, but not original stuff (they’re very poor at making regexes). They’re similarly bad at debugging, though they can sometimes point you in the right direction.
The response from ai-bros for the programming thing is usually something along the lines of how you should try Claude opus, but I am never paying a cent on any ai thing. At that point it’s easier to just use my brain.
I think we had very different experiences, i tried Ollama with Claude Code (just to use their free models, i don’t want to pay a cent) and it helped me a lot with debugging and writing the boring stuff (or sometimes even refactor old code that i was too afraid to touch by how much it was done poorly), and it also helps with reading the logs of something ex: i had a problem with a minecraft mod that crashed the whole game, i couldn’t find a shit in the logs so i just asked to the clanker to search for me and while i took a piss he found the problem, it would’ve taken me a lot otherwise
Yeah, parsing large text to find relevant stuff is very useful for stuff a simple CTRL-F doesn’t work for. I found it useful for parsing .har files to find how a specific value is made for a request.
I also can find phrasing stuff hard at times, so being able to send a word salad to a chatbot and get a proper sentence is useful. Or suggesting words.
