AI drafts documentation — writers make it understandable

AI generates documentation from code and APIs automatically. But clear, useful technical writing that helps humans understand complex systems requires human editorial judgement.

What's already changing

1

AI-generated documentation from code and APIs

AI will handle this

  • API reference documentation generation
  • Screenshot and diagram creation
  • Translation of standard content
  • Broken link and freshness checking

This stays yours

  • Making complex concepts accessible
