With LLMs/ChatGPT, i would prefer fine-tuning a model and have it auto-generate bash commands with my natural language description.

I remember, I used to keep a diary with landline phone numbers of relatives etc. I used to remember at least a dozen of those numbers for emergency. With mobile and digital contacts, now that number is down to just 2.

Wonder, what the programming is going to look like in 10 yrs. If no-one dedicates so much of their time and effort to document, the programmers then would feel helpless. right?

1. Or at that point, LLMs will be intelligent enough to read the source code and figure out the commands.

2. They can generate data by running commands, and train themselves using this simulated data.

What other scenarios will occur once we stop generating data using human effort because we all are so dependent on LLMs to generate those commands?

There's a middle ground alternative where the LLM can read the source, give you a high level description (aka documentation), plus cite the relevant parts of the code. Fingers crossed.
