Serious question for those using #AI to write code comments and code #documentation :

Isn't the kind of documentation it generates trivial?

I mean: if you are just describing what a method or class do, I can read that on the (clean) code myself. I don't need that repeated.

What I am interested in is the parts I can't infer from a quick read of the code. Why this decision was made. Why this method looks weird. Why this class hierarchy. Why this code that seems useless can't be deleted.

Unless, of course, you are not using clean code. You generated the code vibing and it is spaghetti unreadable code. Then that makes sense.

It is the only use case I can see.
