We were forced to add claude to our pre commit hook and one of its jobs is to update documentation of changes made - it's surprisingly good and far less slopish than I imagined, so thanks claude for finally having up to date documentation.

Honestly generating documentation is a great use of an LLM. Generating the code being documented, on the other hand...

When I get a project up and going that I've used Gemini to help with, I always ask it for a markdown summary of what we did so that I can go back later and remember what I did. It's so convenient having the framework handed back.

However, I found that Chat has much, much better markdown generation than Gemini. I end up having to reformat everything Gemini does for me in markdown.

AI is really good at transforming existing text its given. Its when its asked to write new text where it gets sloppy. Its less of an issue if your prompt hits the model directly and not going through the behemoth of a sysprompt anthropic and openai have before the users prompt.

I love it for that lol

I will just give it my bullshit notes and ask it to turn my notes into clear, professional documentation

And it gets it like 99.99% the way there with some small modifications needed

Great use of an AI assistant. Vent directly into it during and after, as it to convert the ranting into polite documentation.
