I’ve been dealing with this at my job too, I’ve been trying to review technical documents “written” by another developer who is 100% using AI to generate the technical docs. I find the docs totally unreadable. I don’t have much in the way of review comments except “can you re-write this part in a more human-readable way”? * 1000. Then the re-writes happen but again it’s clear the prompt was just “AI, re-write this in a more human-readable way” and it’s still just as unreadable just in a different format.
.
But then again, I’m always unsure, are we at the point where we aren’t expected to be able to read these docs, and are they just meant to be ingested by a different AI agent to then use them to do something else ?
or are they just meant to be ingested by a different AI agent
Given that these models are (ideally) trained on good, well-documented human code, I’m guessing that poor documentation will also lead to poor results, so they’re probably not meant for LLM input, but of course, they’ll probably end up as it anyway.
