-    Copy the contents of the source tensor into the destination tensor. This
-    operation is guaranteed to bufferize to a memory copy.
+    This op indicates that the data of the `source` tensor should materialize
+    in the future buffer of the `dest` tensors. Both tensors must have the same
+    shape and element type at runtime.
+
+    By default, this op bufferizes to a memcpy from the future buffer of the
+    `source` tensor to the future buffer of the `dest` tensor. However,
+    transformations such as "empty tensor elimination" may rewrite IR such that
+    a computation is performed directly in the future buffer of the `dest`
+    tensor and no memcpy is needed.
+
+    Note: "tensor.insert_slice" could be used for the same purpose, but since
+    tensor dialect ops only indicate *what* should be computed but not *where*,
+    it could fold away, causing the computation to materialize in a different
+    buffer.

If this lowers to a memcpy doesn't it also materialize in a different buffer? Do you maybe have a concrete example in mind that you could add here? Or explain in a bit more detail why materializing in a different buffer is a problem?
