    Damn even Nvidia is putting out fully Claude-written articles.

      I get the impression that Nvidia employees don't care too much - I started seeing fully AI-written "documentation" on some of their smaller projects more than a year ago (i.e., before it was even slightly a good idea).

        People never really read documentation before. Agents do read it now, and they seem to understand LLM-written text just fine.

          The heck you talking about? How do you think we wrote software for the last 50 years?

            My absolute greatest skill in my career, that has consistently set me apart from my peers, is that I read documentation thoroughly.

            It is shocking how much of a differentiator this is. You will discover that the software you’re already using is much more capable than you realized.

              The good news is your attention to actually reading and understanding documentation will differentiate you more and more as others (short-sighted, IMO) outsource understanding to an LLM.
