Next-Gen Documentation with AI
summary
Claims that LLMs can auto-generate API and code docs get tested: a Streamlit UI pulls Python files from GitHub, runs open‑source models (Mistral, Llama, IBM Granite) via oLama or hosted APIs, and evaluates outputs with BLEU/ROUGE, an LLM scorer and human reviewers. The system produces usable templates but also frequent hallucinations and low automatic scores versus hand‑written docs, so it works for rapid prototyping on laptops and for on‑prem privacy deployments yet still needs human‑in‑the‑loop validation and tuning.
