I agree with the general spirit, but:

"AI tools hallucinate, all of them. When they do so in your docs, you won’t know until someone complains to support."

Surely that's not true, right? AI or not, you should at the very least be reviewing docs before publishing them.

You are right, but in practice, a lot of things happen.

Docs that get generated end up in a huge PR that people glance over.

Sometimes the reviewers aren't senior enough, so they don't even see the issue, etc.
