In logistics, I would suggest LLMs as an assistant to workers. The worker would still make the judgements, but an LLM could fill out forms, suggest alternatives, remind of unfinished tasks, or help look up information such as the right contact person at customer or vendor Xs. These features mostly reduce tedium, but keep judgement in the hands of the person

Future LLMs should gradually become more powerful, and any work on such an assistant today will be good preparation for more powerful assistants

Vertical specialties like logistics are in fact the BEST place to use LLMs, quoting from the article:

"The most interesting (and likely valuable) companies are the ones that take boring industries and find non-obvious use cases for AI. In those cases, the key is having a team that can effectively distribute a product to users, with or without AI"
