AI * DesignOps * Automation
TL;DR
- AI works for repetitive, well-defined tasks with human review.
- Documentation generation saves real hours.

Key claims
AI-generated component docs cut documentation time by 60%.
Unvalidated AI code increases technical debt.
Steal this
- Component doc generation prompt template
- AI code review checklist
- Automation decision framework (automate vs assist vs avoid)
