Docs accessibility, for robots
About the talk
Ever wonder if the writing tips you've been using all along work just as well for AI? Spoiler: They do. In this talk, we'll take a behind-the-scenes look at how AI systems consume your docs and how clear technical writing can streamline that process.
We'll start by breaking down the technical steps of AI content ingestion, such as crawling, parsing, and chunking. With that foundation, we'll explore practical writing techniques and formatting tips that enhance both content ingestion and information retrieval, such as:
- keeping paragraphs short and focused
- using tables for clear data presentation
- building structural hierarchies with proper headings
The talk will show a few before-and-after examples of changes that help both humans and robots find what they need more easily.
Join me for a session that explores how good writing isn't just for people; it works just as well for AI. We'll look at practical examples that prove well-organized content delivers accurate, helpful results in the age of generative AI.
