    To me the biggest problem, that AI might solve is documentation.

        How about this:
        Humans (or humans assisted by AI) write documentation
        Users (devs includes) can either choose to read the manual the old fashioned way or utilize it like a sort of swagger api documentation to give

        1. Information to a question (How to do x)
        2. Provide a general example
        3. (Assuming it’s used with an IDE or has information about the project) Provide a personalized example on the implementation.

        Have you tried to use AI for <thing>? It’s pretty shit.

          Translation, proofreading, summarizing, brainstorming, boilerplate code, protein folding…

            protein folding

            We’re at the point where, due to how b2c tech services work, I think a lot of people think AI === LLM

        I’ve used AI to give me a good enough guess that I know the right keywords to search for too find the real documentation.

        I’ve had pretty good experience with using AI to find what I’m looking for in documentation, especially if the docs are in context

          I think they mean having an AI read code and then write documentation for it. Not having an AI read documentation.
