I have a datalogger at work that has, and I am not joking here an inch-thick manual that is about as helpful as a chocolate teapot. I needed to program the device to take some custom-built load cell platforms but got nowhere.

So I instead enslaved Gemini's deep research model to write me a better user guide. It took 10 minutes to trawl through 30 websites and spat out a 6-page guide that not only let me get it set up but also introduced how to program the thing with my own routines.

AI does have the power to make us incredibly lazy its true, but it also has the power to save us a lot of time in teaching ourselves new skills.
