- Developers are increasingly structuring documentation for AI tools to enhance autonomous solution building.
- Technical writers are evolving into context curators, focusing on content strategy for both human and AI needs.
- The quality of AI outputs depends heavily on the clarity and structure of the input context.
- Large language models (LLMs) require well-structured context to function effectively, akin to feeding them a 'docs cartridge'.
- Technical writers are now involved in API design and development, leveraging their expertise in selecting the right words.
- The future involves making content accessible to both LLMs and humans, with tech writers acting as context curators.
