Seems pretty bad?

    That example someone posted where the AI refused to explain the oklch CSS functional notation, and instead said it doesn’t exist, pretty much exemplifies why this is a bad idea, although I can see how maybe there was good intentions by whoever implemented it.

    In my opinion, the “AI explain” is unnecessary, as I find the MDN contributors already do an excellent job of explaining things as-is, especially in the Examples section under the documentation itself

      If an executive saying “find ways to use ChatGPT so we can be on the cutting edge” and a developer saying “eh, I guess maybe…” counts as good intentions.

      Agreed, and the questions I have that MDN doesn’t answer would probably be ones even less likely for the AI explain to get right.
