Wonder where chatgpt will get its training data in the future, as it’s known not to extrapolate well. Where will it learn new frameworks, languages, … from?
Its going to starve itself.
Let it die
I doubt it ever scraped SO, otherwise all the answers would be smth along the lines: “I cannot answer this question due to low quality effort!” closes browser window
The documentation?
The irony of it all is SO making deals for AI to scrape their site for machine learning but in doing so more people are using chatgpt and copilot more because it’s easier and just as accurate. AI/ML is really going to destroy these websites and yet it’s the websites signing off on their own death sentences.
I think they see the writing on the wall and they’re trying to make a buck while they still can.

Now that’s just a signal for training reinforcement
It’s also around the time they did away with their jobs board thing isn’t it? I got a job through it in 2021 and somewhere after that they sunset it, which was an insane business decision because it was the best job search platform out there.
Isn’t this when Safari and Firefox started blocking third party trackers by default?
That wouldn’t stop page views from being counted.
Guilty <-
But can ChatGPT downvote answers into oblivion?
Do they actually publish this data?
I’m raising their traffic,by slowly poisoning my answers & questions.
Why would you want to also make Stack Overflow worse?
I didn’t consent to ChatGPT using my stuff. So they get 💩.
But so do the Stack Overflow users
Interesting. I actually thought of it as a replacement for Google. With Google search being broken for years it’s the only easy way to get information now.
They are really bad for getting correct information and putting it in context: Information literacy and chatbots as search
There are other search engines.
Is this finally the dusk of SO? It helps alot, but also suck alot.
The first dip is all of us back filling answers with “F U ChatGPT” and getting temporarily banned :)
Down voted. If you’re just going to post a screenshot, you must include a link to the source. This is a link sharing platform.
I thought I was going to be rickrolled but this is better.
