A project that's 2/5/10/30/100m LoC is obviously not going to be understandable entirely in someone's head. Documentation is critical. But if I'm reading your code, and I come across something confusing or you wrote something in a weird way and I want to understand, then I just... Come and ask you. "Hey, why did you do this this way? Did you consider x?" With an AI you can't do that. IMO this point is especially important if your code base is widely deployed to the point that people use it as a learning resource or a good source to learn good practices.
