> Half of what goes into documentation is stuff that isn't obvious from the code!

I’d say that greatly depends on your code. I’ve had GPT write JSDoc where it explains exactly why a set or functions is calculating the German green energy tariffs the way they do. Some of what it wrote went into great detail about how the tariff is not applied if your plant goes over a specific level of production, and why we try to prevent that.

I get your fears, but I don’t appreciate your assumptions into something you clearly both don’t know anything about (our code/documentation) and something you apparently haven’t had much luck with compared to us (LLM documentation).

You’re not completely wrong of course. If you write code with bad variable names and functions that do more than they need to, then GPT is rather bad at hallucinating the meaning. But it’s not like we just blindly let it auto write our documentation without reading it.
