The Fall of Stack Overflow - programming.dev

Stack Overflow has seen a substantial decline in traffic over the last year that appears to be accelerating.

I bet this is directly related to ChatGPT
People prefer having something generating shitty code and not checking it, instead of asking or searching on internet for a substantially better solution
You can have it generate shitty code and then compare it against examples it finds online to iterate that code. Also, it was trained on the whole internet, including those good solutions, and can often reproduce them on its own. but you have to tell it to do all that, rather than just asking for the code.
