I’m mostly cool with it because they disclosed it was AI up front. Its also a summarization (vs OC), so even if it isn’t exactly correct it probably just mixed up a year/dollar value pairing at worst.
Yup, this (I feel) is one of the few areas where AI is valuable.
I’ve got a buddy who just got hired on at a large company as a software developer. Apparently their code base is so arcane and in such unusual frameworks that they recently fed all their documentation to an LLM and are using that to help onboard new employees (vs trying to have experts try to train up people personally).
While I think having a clean and clear codebase should have been their priority, patching it over with an AI teacher is far from the worst solution.

Must be the time of day, as I’ve disclosed before and been downvoted to oblivion. This place is exhausting at times.
To think I found people more cynical than me, now that’s impressive.
I did skim a bunch of articles first, all with the same info, but they were too long-winded or paywalled to link to. This summary seemed just right…
