Doesn't ai;dr kind of contradict ai generated documentation? If I want to know what claude thinks about your code I can just ask it. Imo documentation is the least amenable thing to ai. As the article itself says, I want to read some intention and see how you shape whatever you're documenting.
(AI adding tests seems like a good use, not sure what's meant by scaffolding)
- fmbb 7mo agoThe article is definitely contradicting itself. There are only two sentences between > Why should I bother to read something someone else couldn't be bothered to write? and > I can't imaging writing code by myself again, specially documentation, tests and most scaffolding. So they expect nobody to read their documentation.
- mystifyingpoi 7mo ago> So they expect nobody to read their documentation. Yes, exactly. Because AI will read it and learn from it, it's not for humans.
- jama211 7mo agoThat’s not a contradiction - documentation often needs to be written with no expectation anyone will ever read it.
