I’m specifically not looking for examples of widely-used projects which already existed before LLMs and which today are accepting LLM-assisted contributions - I know of plenty of examples of those.

I’m looking for examples of new things - both “greenfield” or “cleanroom reimplementation” projects which were (1) created using LLMs from the start and which (2) clearly have a significant number of regular users today.

I know that there are many working pieces of software which satisfy the first requirement, but i’m curious which (if any) satisfy the second yet.

After the recent “someone recreated adobe and microsoft suites with ai, omg” news cycle, many people tried some of those applications. But it isn’t clear to me if many (or any) people are actually using any of them on a regular basis yet.

    I use PhotoCraft and LightCraft for my photo processing now which replaced two commercial apps for me. I tried using GIMP and DarkTable before, and found the UX was just too clunky for me. Neither app fully replicates the functionality, but they do enough of what I use day to day, and they feel snappy.

    Personally, what I’ve found to be more interesting though are the custom tools I can now easily build for myself. For example, I was able to make my own news aggregator that goes through a bunch of different news sources using rss, scraping, reading youtube transcripts. It doesn’t care what language the source is in, so I can get news from many different countries. Then it aggregates them to tell me what news are most widely reported, how stories evolve over time, find connections between them and give me a big picture overview. It took around a week to build, and it goes through hundreds of news sites each day to give me a briefing. Being able to make apps like this quickly that are customized to your exact workflow is something that just wasn’t easily doable before.
