The premise
DevRel for AI works only when demos are real and limits are stated; AI can draft posts but cannot replace shipped artifacts.
What AI does well here
- Convert technical notebooks into clean blog drafts.
- Draft talk outlines with code-runnable examples.
What AI cannot do
- Build the working demo or run the live workshop.
- Replace community trust earned over time.
