I use Nix for my homelab servers, and I'm using AI to be my IT support staff essentially. I don't need to ask AI for help installing hyperland, that is trivial as you say, but setting up nginx port forwarding? samba configs? k3s or k8s? Yeah individually any one of those things isn't very hard. But instead of spending 30 minutes reading through config examples and figuring out where it's setup I can instead spend 30 seconds just telling AI what I want, skimming the output to see if it's looks reasonable, and then doing a good ol' `git commit` of the config file & kicking off the "now go do it" nix build command.

And, critically, at no point does an LLM ever have access to sudo, shell, etc.. It just works with plain text files that aren't even on the machine I'm deploying it to.
