I think this is a thing not often discussed here, but I too have this experience. An LLM can be fantastic if you write a 25-pager then later need to incorporate a lot of comments with sometimes conflicting arguments/viewpoints.

LLMs can be really good at "get all arguments against this", "Incorporated this view point in this text while making it more concise.", "Are these views actually contradicting or can I write it such that they align. Consider incentives".

If you know what you're doing and understand the matter deeply (and that is very important) you'll find that the LLM is sometimes better at wording what you actually mean, especially when not writing in your native language. Of course, you study the generated text, make small changes, make it yours, make sure you feel comfortable with it etc. But man can it get you over that "how am I going to write this down"-hump.

Also: "Make an executive summary" "Make more concise", are great. Often you need to de-linkedIn the text, or tell it to "not sound like an American waiter", and "be business-casual", "adopt style of rest of doc", etc. But it works wonders.
