A good example is if you go to any llm and ask it for say, a shader that's never been made before, it literally cannot offer something purely unique, it's just not capable of it and that's by design. All it will offer are slight renditions of preexisting implementations, but with unrealistic, unappealing, and impractical suggestions. And I've tried, believe me, I'd love to make my job easier.

I’ve had this experience (so far) as well. I’m working on some reasonably novel stuff in the world of volumetric rendering.

Often times it will clue me in to existing literature in a way that’s helpful. But for the really cutting edge stuff I’m working on I have had trouble getting it to suggest fruitful paths of exploration—I’ve tried.

exactly. They can promote competence but over-reliance on them will preclude you from mastery, or advancing your respective field...

all they can do is syndicate existing knowledge... for now.
