AR glasses plus an LLM would be great for DIY maintenance, renovation tasks. Plumbing, electrical work, kitchen renovation, etc… often times it’s just knowing what to look for or check.
I have a cousin who has a certain fearlessness when it comes to home DIY projects. Unfortunately he could probably use a little more restraint, but on the whole it's an interesting quality that I noticed LLMs/coding agents help with quite a bit. They give me, an impostor syndrome type/overthinking type a certain confidence to move forward that really helps break into projects. I think this could probably be very effective in other domains like home improvement. And in case of my cousin, might also help avoid some missteps.
Yeah, this would be a much better version of the well-meaning but poorly produced youtube videos I typically use to fix things up around the house. Probably a lot of value there.
Doing electric work based on solely on LLM output sounds like a recipe for disaster.
I do simple electrical work already on my own, like adding or swapping an outlet. I'm not talking about the stuff you could get an electrician for, and you should always have work inspected even if DIY.
