After seeing this graph about the fall of StackOverflow, it’s clear to me that I’m not the only one who has stopped using it in favor of LLMS (large language model) alternatives. With the rise of generative AI-powered initiatives like OverflowAI by Stack Overflow, and the potential of ChatGPT by OpenAI, the landscape of programming knowledge sharing is evolving. These AI models have the ability to generate human-like text and provide answers to programming questions. It’s fascinating to witness the potential of AI as a game-changing tool in programming problem solving. So, I’m curious, which AI have you replaced StackOverflow with? Share your favorite LLMS or generative AI platform for programming in the comments below!
This is definitely my issue. I’ve experimented with LLMs for code generation, but more often than not the code will be unusable, and occasionally it will have grotesque practices like unused function parameters in it. As far as I can tell we are nowhere near an LLM capable of generating ethical code.
