    I’ve been on SO like ten times altogether since ChatGPT came out. It’s so much nicer than the condescending pricks of Stack Overflow. My favourite is when some genius links a question as a duplicate of something that’s vaguely similar.

      The problem is that fewer people are generating the new content for gpt to slurp up.

      Free information stops working when people stop caring about creating it.

        Yeah, I’ve thought about that as well. Doesn’t mean I’m gonna miss Stack Overflow specifically. Perhaps something better replaces it when AI gets poisoned by its own output too much.

            Sure, that’s why a good service doesn’t create an environment which supports people being dicks. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what SO does with the way it works.

      What do you ask ChatGPT? I rarely get a correct answer really, it’s all made-up bullshit usually.

        I usually have good answers with only minimal bullshit when it comes to coding. If not, it at least points me in the right direction.
