How valuable will all of that code be without the context added by human conversation emphasizing and explaining aspects of code?
Sure, this will work for programming languages that are unchanging and dead, but as people begin to need to learn new aspects of programming language this system will spectacularly fail. AI does not beat high quality human conversations about a technical topic, it can only badly summarize them.
