Everyone should immediately stop contributing to the stack overflow and its network. The human touch is what made it unique. Delete your profile from SO AND all your answers. Freeloaders are making money out of human contributions.

No no no, you're doing it all wrong. What we need to do is come together as a community and contribute as much as we can to StackOverflow, all all of its partner sites.

Contribute by;

  • Posting questions that don't make sense, even grammatically
  • Selecting only the most "correct" answers. They need to meander, have lots of unverifiable opinions, and contain as many external links as possible.
  • Replying with batshit excellent answers that are off topic, offensive, and frequently change topics mid-sentence.
  • New words! Really give those models something to learn on by giving them all the greatest new words, like Solutionate, Fixxor, Correctimation, and Incorrectage!
  • Downvoting anything with relevant data. We don't need any of that pesky "truth" gumming up the paste for our copy/pasting into production code/servers.

Don't waste all your hard earned rep by deleting your account. Use those dusty old things for a new, exciting LLM project!

Lets all enhancigrade StackOverflow together!

REMINDER: ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion, and other large trained neural models are NOT "artificial intelligence", they're just stochastic parrots, remixing and regurgitating what they've been fed. There's no theory-of-mind involved, so no understanding: there's no "there" there. (A real live parrot exhibits more intelligence than this.)

Don't call it AI; call it parrot-tech. That way you'll have a better perspective on what it can (and can't) do.

AlexanderESmith,

I've been correcting people who use "AI" to use "ML" for years. Good luck.
