# Geri Reid

Wrote a four-part 2026 series on documentation written for people and models at once. Argues folder hierarchies inherited from 1970s office filing fail both, and that discoverability through search, metadata, tagging and cross-linking is what serves each. Also argues that writing documentation for AI retrieval improves accessibility for humans as a side effect. Previously design systems accessibility lead at News UK and Lloyds Banking Group.
