Something I've noticed from using LLMs is a real sense of relief. I have pretty crippling dyslexia. Spell checkers don't really work for me — for that to work, you have to get close enough to the word AND be able to recognise which one is correct from a list. I often have to fall back to checking definitions. My usual workaround was to Google the word, see what came back, then double-check I had the right one. It's really exhausting. But talking to an LLM, it doesn't care — and it does a much better job of figuring out meaning and the correct word from context. I've been able to stop doing all that extra cognitive labor. It feels liberating and relaxing. The same is true for coding. I'm good at systems thinking — knowing how things need to come together, holding the complicated picture in my head. I've built a lot of interesting projects that work. The hard part was never figuring out what needed to be done or how it should work. It was the damned syntax. Kind of like being able to work and think in my native language rather than one I learned as an adult, where I'm constantly doing the mental work of translation.

Same experience. I used to spend ages fretting about how to structure a paragraph properly. Not I can just lay out the logic of my thoughts and it structures it pretty well.
