I think it’s the reverse - people were too lazy to read the docs so nobody was motivated to write them.

With an agent I know if I write once to CLAUDE.md and it will be read by 1000’s of agents in a week.

I like this insight. We kind of always knew that we wanted good docs, but they're demotivating to maintain if people aren't reading them. LLMs by their nature won't be onboarded to the codebase with meetings and conversations, so if we want them to have a proper onboarding then we're forced to be less lazy with our docs, and we get the validation of knowing they're being used.
