Travis Frisinger - The Value of LLMs - Why Stupid Machines Are Smarter Than You Think

#LambdaConf2025 took place in Estes Park Colorado this past May 12th and 13th.

Despite these apparent limitations, LLMs have proven to be incredibly useful tools across various domains, from content generation to automating complex workflows. This talk explores why these systems, while not 'intelligent' in a traditional sense, hold immense practical value due to their iterative, co-creative capabilities with humans. I'll examine the emergent behaviors that make LLMs more than just predictive engines and why their simplicity is actually a key strength. Attendees will gain insights into effectively leveraging LLMs, understanding both their limitations and their potential to enhance productivity, creativity, and problem-solving in real-world applications.
