I agree they are over-hyped. Maybe the problem is that all the things LLMs are great for are essentially quality of life improvements. There are a dozen killer apps worth of functionality I get out of LLMs - near instant proofreader, one-shot code bugfixer, excellent cursory research tool, bibtext generator, etc. All of these things extend what I can do a bit but none of them instantly result in me being able to generate category killing apps. They still make stupid mistakes, they don't reduce my workload, but they reduce cognitive load on mundane tasks.
