What did these tools do? I don’t see any LLm being used to creating anything working from scratch, without the human propmter doing most of the heavy lifting.

Mostly internal data cleaning stuff, close etc, which I accept is less in scope than you’re original comment.

The things you are describing sound like if-statement levels of automation, GitHub Actions with preprogrammed responses rather than LLM whatever.
If you’re worrying about being replaced by that… Go find the code, read it, and feel better.

The code was non trivial and relatively sophisticated. It performed statistical analysis on ingested data and the approach taken was statistically sound.
I was replaced by that. So was my colleague.
The job market is exceptionally tough right now and a large part of that is certainly llms.
I think taking people with statistical training out of the equation is quite dangerous, but it’s happening. In my area, everybody doing applied mathematics, statistics or analysis has been laid off.
In saying that, the produced program was quite good.

Certainly sounds more interesting than my original read of it! Sorry about that, I was grumpy.
