LLMs will accelerate the proliferation and searchability of ideas. Many times I've been using an LLM and it'll suggest ideas I would have never come across naturally that have been beneficial to whatever I happened to be implementing. For learning in general, it's been the most delightful tool I've ever used.

On the other hand, if you're working in an industry where you and your coworkers are developing novel solutions that aren't widely known, chances are you'll still be doing that by hand with some light LLM automation. There are industries with a lot of gatekept secrets where LLMs will be less useful. What I will say on that matter is this: if you weren't surprised frontier labs stole copyrighted work for training data, you'd do well to mind what you push through their systems.
