I find it very useful to review the output and consider its suggestions.
I don’t trust it blindly, and I often don’t use most of what it suggests; but I do apply critical thinking to evaluate what might be useful.
The simplest example is using it as a reverse dictionary. If I know there’s a word for a concept, I’ll ask an LLM. When I read the response, I either recognize the word or verify it using a regular dictionary.
I think a lot of the contention in these discussions is because people are using it for different purposes: it's unreliable for some purposes and it is excellent at others.
