Putting this up front, I am NOT pro-AIβ¦ Iβm just lazy and LLMs are very useful if you are lazy.
This is so far one of the best uses for #LLMs iβve found, having it figure out the mess of issues that come up when attempting to compile random shit I donβt have the time nor desire to troubleshoot myself.
Here is an example, I am checking out Nostr clients and this one called gossip has an AUR package, but it failed in building for some reason and ran into multiple issues some of which i could probably have figured out myself but others Iβd have just given up on and probably written off even trying the software. I told GeminiCLI
do the needful to complete the compilation and creating of package for gossip nostr client archlinux package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gossip
So it does whatβs needed and solves each issue as it comes up. So far Iβm 2 for 2 with fixing AUR packages this way.

Sidenote: I love that phrase βDo the needfulβ, I use it all the time with LLMs, but Iβve never in my life used it with humans. To me it sounds sort of rude (like βJust get it done damn it!β), but I donβt care about being rude to a clanker.

Iβm not at all saying this makes LLMs worth paying for, in fact the only reason I even use Gemini over anything is because unlike similar tools it works for free and more over I was able to buy a google account on the darknet with a year of access to their ProAI for under $10 (none of which goes to google, its a free student account made by someone in someplace like Pakistan or Nigeria).
