My experience is that they're better than me at a lot of the process, so probably worse than someone who's a full time reverse engineer but as good as or better than most. They'll definitely get some small details wrong that would derail the entire thing, so having some skills that are pretty much "This smells wrong" helps a lot, but I think for many scenarios they'll unblock someone who has little RE experience.

Also verifiable. LLMs shine when they can know when the task is completed correctly. Otherwise they will finish and hand over something that's wrong.
