I find the idea of using LLMs for emails confusing.
Surely it's less work to put the words you want to say into an email, rather than craft a prompt to get the LLM to say what you want to say, and iterate until the LLM actually says it?
My own opinion, which is admittedly too harsh, is that they don't really know what they want to say. That is, the prompt they write is very short, along the lines of `ask when this will be done` or `schedule a followup`, and give the LLM output a cursory review before copy-pasting it.
I am writing to inquire about the projected completion timeline for the HackerNews initiative. In order to optimize our downstream workflows and ensure all dependencies are properly aligned, an estimated delivery date would be highly valuable.
Could you please provide an updated forecast on when we might anticipate the project's conclusion? This data will assist in calibrating our subsequent operational parameters.
Thank you for your continued focus and effort on this task. Please advise if any additional resources or support from my end could help expedite the process.
