Why not use them yourself if you have access? I have been using Claude 3.5 Sonnet for gardening recently, and while it's not perfect(and can be a little blind unless you tell it to focus on a specific thing), it's helped me understand how to keep my plants alive in some challenging conditions(for me; this is my second or third attempt at gardening so it's all challenging lol). But just a experiment with it and see where the capabilities lie. I do agree that certain classes of visual data are challenging for it.
