People argued the same about calculators. This person literally described their situation as one where they're utilizing it due to having no other option, and as a means to begin increasing their skills. LLMs are mostly garbage, but to say they have 0 benefits is being deliberately obtuse. The other commenter literally took the initiative and adapted the technology to their situation, that's literally the opposite of what you're complaining about.
I say this as someone that hasn't touched an LLM in 3 years.
...wait a minute
