Once you make a model fast and small enough, it starts to become practical to use LLMs for things as mundane as spell checking, touchscreen-keyboard tap disambiguation, and database query planning. If the fast, small model is multimodal, use it in a microwave to make a better DWIM auto-cook.

Hell, want to do syntax highlighting? Just throw buffer text into an ultra-fast LLM.

It's easy to overlook how many small day-to-day heuristic schemes can be replaced with AI. It's almost embarrassing to think about all the totally mundane uses to which we can put fast, modest intelligence.
