What I find a bit annoying is that if you sit in the llm you never get an intuition about the docs because you are always asking the llm. Which is nice in some cases but it prevents discovery in other cases. There’s plenty of moments where I’m reading docs and learn something new about what some library does or get surprised it lacks a certain feature. Although the same is true for talking to an llm about it. The truth is that I don’t think we really have a good idea of the best kind of human interface for LLMs as a computer access tool.
FWIW, I've had ChatGPT suggest things I wasn't aware of. For example, I asked for the cleanest implementation for an ordered task list using SQLAlchemy entities. It gave me an implementation but then suggested I use a feature SQLAlchemy already had built in for this exact use case.
SQLAlchemy docs are vast and detailed, it's not surprising I didn't know about the feature even though I've spent plenty of time in those docs.
