Stackoverflow Still Relevant?
- Published on
It just occurred to me that I haven't browsed Stack Overflow for answers to my coding queries since using the likes of Copilot and Gemini. It's been an even longer period of time since I posted my last question, which in the past, I would only have done if life depended on it. We are all aware of the strict rules that are enforced to ensure a question is asked in the correct manner, whereas an AI prompt doesn't really care.
I wonder how the likes of AI have impacted them, when the quest for answers is now so instantaneous? It also raises a far more important question about what will become of community-driven websites where we will no longer see the person behind the knowledge.
