LLMs are quite good at text based tasks such as summarization and extracting entities.

These generally don't require advanced logic or thought, though they can require some moderate reasoning ability to summarize two slightly conflicting text extracts.

Lots of corporate work would be enhanced by better summarization, better information dissemination, and better text extraction. Most of it is pretty boring work, but there's a lot of it.

VC hypes seem to want to mostly focus on fantastical problems, though, which sound impressive at dinner parties but don't actually work well.

If you're a VC, do you want to talk about your investment in a company that finds discrepancies in invoices, or one that self-writes consumer iPhone apps?

Only one of those is actually doable today.
