I think there are new solutions—and associated challenges—coming in this space as well. For example, there's a rise now in AI assistance for writing documentation. I think a large percentage of the documentation that produces is likely to be horrible to read and unusable.

There's also things that work the other way. Rather than bloated AI docs you end up with frequently curated docs. For example, Runme is an OSS tool to make documentation interactive and runnable. In that scenario, your docs writer probably becomes an editor and UX eye on the documentation; the teams using the docs become the writers and updaters because they're executing out of them.
