I recently set up a LLM to run locally on my desktop. Now that the novelty of setting it up and playing with different settings has worn off, I’m struggling to come up with actual uses for it. What do you use it for when not doing work stuff?

    Nothing because it sucks and isn’t worth the effort if you have an Internet connection and any knowledge on how to use a search engine.

      If you are not sure how to search for a specific problem and can just describe it in a few sentences then it’s definitely worth the effort.

      And for the state many search engines are in today that is sometimes the better way to find stuff.
