The other day I asked chatgpt (o3) to help me compare a bunch of task orchestration systems and arrange them according to some variables I care about (popularity, feature richness, durability, whether can be self-hosted, etc.). I ended up using https://www.inngest.com/ -- which was new to me -- and that single tool sped up my particular task by at least 10x for the week. That was a one-off project, so it won't generalize in a clean way, but I keep finding individual cases where the particular strengths of LLMs can save me a whole bunch of time. (another example: creating and evaluating responses to technical interview questions). I don't expect that these are easy to quantify, but they are significant.
This is not to disagree with the OP, but to point out that, even for engineers, the speedups might not appear where you expect. [EDIT I see like 4 other comments making the same point :)]
Hi there, I was wondering if you'd be willing to share that ChatGPT chat with me (or everyone). I'm the CEO of a competing product (DBOS) and I'm just curious what your question and responses were that let you elsewhere. Thanks!
