My take on AI-for docs is - it’s good. But you need to have a human review.

It’s a lot easier to have someone who knows the code well review a paragraph of text than to ask them to write that paragraph.

Good comments make the code much easier for LLMs to use, as well. Especially in the case where the LLM generated docs would be subtly misunderstanding the purpose.
