But you see, developers have been self spamming their code with obvious, misleading, and/or wrong comments for decades. Especially with those pesky “everything must have a doc-comment” linters. Think of all the time ChatGPT will save doing it for them!

It mostly only need the function and the type definitions (typescript) and it is usually very good at writing them and it does save me time.
