Coaxing quality output from generative AI

This post covers work done under the Sovereign Tech Fund investment . The work is coordinated by the Scala Center . The work described in this post was done by Bill Venners and Chua Chee Seng of Artima . One of the tasks funded under the STA project is to improve Scala’s API documentation. Such a task looks like a natural fit for generative AI, because the work is repetitive and the code to document is nearby in the source. But handing the work to an AI raises two challenges. The first is quality: an AI model will readily produce documentation, but it may be mediocre or wrong. The second chal…
