Tbf that sounds like a strong bias from someone who works exclusively in software development and simply hasn't found other uses. But I have worked with integrating LLMs across quite a few applications and departments by now and I can comfortably say that programming is not the only thing where we see extreme benefits. I wouldn't even say it's the area that has seen the most benefit so far. There used to be a lot of mundane work outside of software development that was easy prey even for early models. And with the current cutting edge models I'm pretty sure that you could replace >75% white collar jobs if you just get the context engineering right. That's the hard part right now, not the raw intelligence necessary for arbitrary data processing. But frameworks are getting there fast.
