Code comments decay and mislead over time, creating more problems than they solve. Instead of writing manual documentation, LLMs can generate explanations on-demand from the code itself, ensuring freshness and accuracy. By integrating LLMs into the build pipeline to measure a Code Interpretability Score, teams can enforce readability as an objective quality gate—if the LLM can't explain the code with high confidence, the build fails. This approach eliminates the need for comments entirely, forcing developers to write inherently clear, self-documenting code.
