I like that most LLM UIs show your previous queries prominently. When figuring out where LLMs are useful in your workflow, it's nice to see what worked well (or not) in the past. Web search doesn't have this property. I rarely look at what I've previously googled.

One interesting consequence of the rise of LLMs: there's more demand for tools that handle untrusted input. Arbitrary HTML+JS can be safely run in a browser. Lean can check an arbitrary proof. These work really well with an LLM that can be wrong, but sometimes gives exactly what you want. Are there other tools in this family?

... and my third refactoring with Cursor changed some function calls that I didn't want it to modify. Subtle. I've had the most success with AI coding tools when I know exactly what I want the output to look like.
