i wonder if people who use llm's for business critical documentation would have the same opinion, and if so why?

I have used LLMs for safety sensitive tech writing and so have people I know. It’s pretty good at it, and you usually have a 95% ready to go product at the end of it. The last 5% can pretty easily be filled in by technical experts with way less time spent battling the type writer.

Is it perfect? No. But it suffices most of the time in a pinch.

Can’t speak to the nuke industry, but it’s pretty good at aviation related things.

  • A good compromise would be to have the LLM write the outline. That also helps get over the activation energy of starting.

    Then elaborate in small chunks so the human domain expert can remain focused during review.
