I don't buy strong claims about AI, and I'm particularly sceptical about agents. But I also find LLMs like ChatGPT a massive improvement on Google for all sorts of purposes. Yesterday, I had to fix the electronic gear changer on my Canyon bike. Basically a matter of swapping out a button battery.

But when it didn't work, I was stuck, not wanting to risk damaging an expensive component. Google and YouTube got me nowhere, but ChatGPT walked me through all the steps until I got it right. Chat mode is great here, because of step by step interaction.
