Comment on Ask HN: Do you still read docs for Python/NPM libraries or use AI on codebase?

Comments

I use LLMs as a last resort, when I can't find something in the official documentation first, unofficial documentation second, and the code itself third. And I assume that at least part of what a language model encodes about a library would've been derived from the documentation, and scanned code directly derived from that documentation, anyhow.
