- Creating and maintaining documentation
- Example: Using AI to document legacy code by generating function descriptions and usage examples

According to industry surveys, 72% of developers report that AI tools help them learn new programming languages more quickly, while 68% express concerns about potential security vulnerabilities in AI-generated code.⁴

1.3 Setting Realistic Expectations

Creating a balanced view of AI capabilities in technical contexts:

What AI does well
