I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to make this comment, thanks.
I do see how this can be helpful for a lot of things, but I think in my situation (namely a bunch of neurodiversity and brain fog, and no existing interest in or experience with LLMs), having to learn how to deal with an LLM to a point where I get results I'd be confident enough in to trust without having to double or triple check, is probably a bigger hurdle than just diving in to figuring out security camera set ups. It's putting one more thing in the way of the information I actually need, which means my brain is much much less motivated than it already is to get the information, if you see what I mean..
I do understand what you mean, but I think you're probably significantly overestimating the difficulty of using the tool. One of its major strengths is its ability to just understand you, like you'd talk to anyone human, with the benefit that you can even instruct it to use a style you prefer. Just say "I'd like your answer to be terse, let's see if we're on the right track before getting into details". Just as an example.
With all that said you know what you want and need better than anyone else, that's all I've got to say on it, cheers!
Thanks again 👍
