I see n8n everywhere and while I love automation I can’t think of a use case, that couldn’t be realized in Bash instead.

So I’m wondering, if you use n8n what are you using it for?

    Also would like to know. Bad title.

    Edit: it’s more AI agent shit. Disregard everything. I don’t want to know more.

    Edit 2 for some of you:

    n8n gives you more freedom to implement multi-step AI agents and integrate apps than any other tool.

    Right on the frontpage.

      n8n can be run with the assistance of AI, and n8n can also be run without AI.

        Anything that puts on the front page of its project site the use case for itself to relate to AI agents instantly makes me suspicious and not interested. I can’t help it.

          I get it. Some of us are staunch anti-ai. That’s fine. I am not an n8n sales person, but I just wanted to make it clear, there are two versions and you can integrate a host of thing into it. Personally, I would run the AI version with a private AI that doesn’t need an external LLM. But my equipment is not that new and it takes some power to run AI efficiently and effectively. No issues with anyone, it just seemed that there was some confusion.
