Using AI to Write Documentation

Use AI for drafts AI is useful for turning notes into structure. It can create headings, summarize decisions, and rewrite rough text in a more readable way. ## Give it constraints Tell the model the audience, tone, required sections, and what not to include. Constraints matter more than clever prompts. ## Verify every claim Documentation becomes harmful when it sounds confident but is wrong. Confirm steps, commands, screenshots, links, and product behavior before publishing. ## Keep ownership clear The person publishing the document is responsible for the final content. AI can help, but it should not become an excuse for vague or unverified docs.
