They're sophisticated tools at much as any other software. About 2 weeks ago I started on a streaming markdown parser for the terminal because none really existed. I've switched to human coding now but the first version was basically all llm prompting and a bunch of the code is still llm generated (maybe 80%). It's a parser, those are hard. There's stacks, states, lookaheads, look behinds, feature flags, color spaces, support for things like links and syntax highlighting... all forward streaming. Not easy https://github.com/kristopolous/Streamdown
In I genuinely don't understand why some people are still bullish about LLMs
