It's a best practice to document things about the code base, so that other devs (even senior devs) don't start to do things differently. This will probably not change

What I think is short lived is this insistence in separating LLM instructions from general documentation for both humans and AI. LLMs can read human docs, and concerns about context window size will probably disappear

But maybe future docs will be LLM-first, but people won't read them directly. They will ask a LLM questions about it
