In this episode of the Knowledge Base Ninjas podcast, Netra Pawar, Lead Documentation Engineer, shares how AI is transforming content creation and evaluation in technical writing.

Netra discusses key metrics for content quality, retrieval, and impact, and how AI can help scale evaluation. She also talks about the evolving role of technical writers, the importance of error analysis, and how partnering with engineering and ML teams can improve content performance.
