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?

    I’ve had pretty good luck getting cocktail recipes out of chatgpt. They sometimes need a little tweaking but it hasn’t steered me horribly wrong yet.

    I’m also going to be officiating a wedding for a friend in a few months, so I’ve been using it to work out what I want to say for the ceremony.

    I have a coworker who’s been taking some college classes. He struggles a bit with writing papers, he knows all the material just doesn’t quite know how to get started putting things down on paper. I told him to give it a try, with some strong warnings to rewrite and fact-check everything it spits out, and so far it’s been working out great for him and he’s been heeding my warnings, he pretty much punches in some prompts and bullet points and then goes through and rewords everything it spits out and fact-checks it as he goes.
