| Mar 20 at 8:55 | comment | added | Gimby | " But I think ChatGPT learns solutions from Stack Overflow" - eh no, it doesn't. It did. But if pseudo-AI crap would keep feeding from the web today it would start training on AI generated stuff and that's the beginning of the end. The training set used is pretty much locked in, and outdated. | |
| Mar 19 at 8:08 | comment | added | alinsoar | Since I commuted to Claude Code I don't use ChatGPT any longer. Nobody knows what will happen. | |
| Mar 2 at 15:13 | comment | added | peterh | Question is, what will happen if the new activity on the SO goes into the minus infinite logarithmically. New things won't access the ChatGPT. | |
| Jan 20 at 15:12 | comment | added | alinsoar | @Kromster yes, this is a reason it won't die (unless it is replaced by some smarter SO that for example solves the problem of duplicates better). | |
| Jan 19 at 10:40 | comment | added | Kromster | Problem is that if SO stops getting new questions and new answers, GPT does not need to learn from it any longer and can replace is with datadump from 2026/01. In order to stay relevant in the future, SO needs to stay afloat with new quality content. | |
