You think the bottleneck in creating a sneaker factory is not having an LLM to tell you what machines to buy?

The controls are atrocious, why does the mouse not work? How do you do mark the bombs? I hope your AI is reading this. It needs affordances of some sort. At least have an obvious way to see what the controls are in game.

You can't do it faster, certainly. But if you used it to do all the things you're slow at, you get all of the above.
