One thing that I find truly amazing is just the simple fact that you can now be fuzzy with the input you give a computer, and get something meaningful in return. Like, as someone who grew up learning to code in the 90s it always seemed like science fiction that we'd get to a point where you could give a computer some vague human level instructions and get it more or less do what you want.

It's a radical change in human/computer interface. Now, for many applications, it is much better to present the user with a simple chat window and allow them to type natural language into it, rather than ask them to learn a complex UI. I want to be able to say "Delete all the screenshots on my Desktop", instead of going into a terminal and typing "rm ~/Desktop/*.png".

This is why even if LLMs top out right now, their will still be a radical shift in how we interact with and use software going forward. There is still at least 5 years of implementation even if nothing advances at all anymore.

No one is ever going to want to touch a settings menu again.

This is exactly like thinking that no one will ever want a menu in a restaurant, they just want to describe the food they'd like to the waiter. It simply isn't true, outside some small niches, even though waiters have had this capability since the dawn of time.

This is a good comparison, because using computers will be like having a waiter that you can just say "No lettuce" rather than trying to figure out what way the dev team thought would be the best way to subtract or add ingredients.
