My favorite thing about LLMs is that they can convincingly tell me why I'm wrong or how I could think about things differently, not for ideas on the order of sentences and paragraphs, but on the order of pages.
My second favorite thing is that it is amazingly good at deconstructing manipulative language and power tactics. It is scary good at developing manipulation strategies and inferring believable processes to achieve complex goals.
