Can you use Python and Scrivener together?

Same here. In a well-defined problem with examples and guidance, an LLM is basically a junior coder. It can pattern-match with supervision, and do it fairly well. “Good enough” for most solutions. Python is my primary language these days, and I would completely consider using an LLM to make a filter for me. I’d even turn it loose on Lua, of which I have a reading understanding.

For creative writing content and Scrivener projects, LLMs are kept away with the proverbial ten-foot pole. For professional code where the industry is in a “use or perish” state, for sure.

It’s a weird place to exist.

The key difference is that you don’t need the “A.I.” and you understand its limitations, when it goes off the rails and why, and how to get it back on track or take over. If a pilot engages the autopilot, that’s not a concern. If the pilot gets replaced by a random passenger using the autopilot… well.

a great analogy:

also, keeping your eyes open on landing helps.
