There was an article on hackernews a few years back (before LLMs took over) about jobs that could be replaced by a sign saying "$default_result" 99% of the time.

Like being a cancer diagnostician. Or an inspector at a border crossing.

Using LLMs is currently a lot like going to a diagnostian that always responds "no, you're healthy". The answer is probably right. But still we pay people a lot to get that last 1%.

If people paid for docs as an independent product, or had the foresight to evaluate the quality of the docs before making a purchase and use it as part of their criteria (or are able to do that at all), I think attitudes around docs and "docs bots" and their correctness, utility etc. would be a lot different.
