This just begs the question… why not generate the docs when someone reads the code instead? Why bother generating a bunch of half assed docs today when you can wait and interrogate the code in a much more natural and fluid way using the same LLM when it matters?
- docandrew 4y agoSEO. When you ask an LLM “What’s a good library/tool I can use to accomplish X?” The ones with some documentation already attached will rise to the surface and make it easier for the consuming LLM to generate code samples for.
