>Naive use of LLMs by non-technical users is annoying, but is also a straw-man argument against the technology. Smart usage of LLMs in o1/3 style of emulated reasoning unlocks entirely new realms of functionality.

I agree in principle, but disagree in practice. With LLMs available to everyone, the uses we're seeing currently will only proliferate. Is that strictly a technology problem? No, but it's cold comfort given how LLM usage is actually playing out day-to-day. Social media is a useful metaphor here: it could potentially be a strictly useful technology, but in practice it's used to quite deleterious effect.
