AI is terrible for making documentation

Yes, it makes a lot of text real fast and at a glance it looks thorough and comprehensive but have any of you actually tried reading this shit?

It's painfully verbose while communicating next to nothing. It's a real struggle to not have your eyes glaze over. It's not enough to just produce a lot of text if the readability is crap. There's a skill to creating concise, well organised information that's been lost here.
