To yes, and this —

I've started doing something similar on the command line with Claude Code that works incredibly well:

claude -p "use ffmpeg to convert myvideo.mov into an h264 video suitable for youtube upload" --dangerously-skip-permissions

Highly recommended! I use --dangerously-skip-permissions because I just want to set it and forget it and dont need to babysit the run.

`llm cmd` by simonw is even better for one-off commands. It spits out the invocation and you can repurpose as suits your needs. Thanks Simon!

		simonw's llm is amazing. Basically disappointed me for trying to build any LLM powered cli tool

Em-dash alert.

Not OP, but the whole "AI using em-dashes when people writing would use commas" is very annoying given that the em-dash is readily available on my phone (hold on - to get one) and on my computer (compose - -), and I only started using it because people pointed out that commas are incorrect in this instance :(

FTR I don't, and have never used AI to write or do any "creative work", because it's not creativity if it doesn't come from you.

I also have regularly used hyphens, en dashes, and em dashes since college. Way preceding LLMs. Now I second guess my literary style.

		Yeah, same. To be clear I'm frustrated and annoyed that people are using LLMs to replace writing just... normal everyday things, that it is beneficial to think through and consider and form in your mind; it is likewise frustrating that immediately the first thing that anyone really did with AI was spam online submission forms for writers groups hard enough that they got taken offline.
