It's a good point but in most of the places i've worked an average person could leverage any 2026 llm to improve things 50% easily. And I'm more anti-llm than not somehow.
- fixing regular computers issues (confusing browser or os behavior)
- finding more possibilities with your current programs (around 2020 someone once asked me if I knew a way to capitalize a word on a computer, when she realized there was a dedicated shortcut she became ecstatic)
- having a rubberduck to discuss your daily work dead-ends
- thus decoupling from team friction as you need to ask less questions to people that might hurt you.
In more technical places, having a llm write small automation would also add up.
