    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.

        I think not. The problem isn’t in a service, the problem is in people.

          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.
