    All my homies hate regexs. That’s actually the best use case I found for LLMs so far : I just tell it what I want it to match or not match, and it usually spits out a decent one

      Oooof. I feel like trying to figure out what’s wrong with some regex I didn’t write is much harder than writing it myself personally.

        I’ve never had to use it for important stuff tbh. But alongside a regex tester and a sample of the stuff I intend to use it on, I’ve had good results with an incremental approach where I tell the LLM what I want to change with the expression until I’m satisfied

      That sounds…

      Easier to get almost right than actually learning the subject.

      Much, much harder to get completely right than actually learning the subject.

      So yes, basically the archetypal use case for LLMs.
