That's a game changer for a new Open source contributor's onboarding.
Put in postgres or redis codebase, get a good understanding and get going to contribute.

Isn't that overly optimistic? The postgres source code is really complex, and reading a dummy tutorial isn't going to make you a database engine ninja. If a simple tutorial can, imagine what a book on the topic could do.
No, I am not that optimistic about LLMs. I just think that something is better then nothing.
The burden of understanding still is with the engineers. All you would get is some (partially inaccurate at places) good overview of where to look for.
