I see it as the first step towards removing entire workflows like this.

Once the humans are removed, there is far less motivated reasoning to keep that process alive if it’s just robots burning tokens passing paper back and forth.

I will likely somehow be proven wrong, but it is one of the main uses I am optimistic for in the AI space.

Yes that is a good point and AI also gives us tools to make traditional systems more quickly. It could actually deliver on some of the original benefit promised by computing.
