And it often generates a bunch of markdown docs which are plain drivel, luckily most devs just delete those before I see them.
My favorite is when it generates a tree of the files in a directory in a README and a description for each file. How the fuck is this useful? Files will be added and removed, so there’s now an additional task to update these docs whenever that happens. Nobody will remember to do so because no tool is going to enforce that and it’s stupid anyway.
Sure, document high level directories. But do you really need that all in the top level README?
But for real if anyone in management is listening, take it from an old asshole who has done this job since the 80s: AI fucking sucks!
Nothing to add. Just quoting this section because it needs to be highlighted lol.
