Definitely.... I just bought a new NAS and after moving stuff over, and downloading some new movies and series, "Vibe coding" a handful of scripts which check completeness of episodes against some database, or the difference between the filesystem and what plex recognized, is super helpful. I noticed one movie which was obviously compressed from 16:9 to 4:3, and two minutes later, I had a script which can check my entire collection for PAR/DAR oddities and provides a way to correct them using ffmpeg.

These are all things I could do myself but the trade off typically is not worth it. I would spend too much time learning details and messing about getting it to work smoothly. Now it is just a prompt or two away.
