With any luck it'll provide the authentic sort of answers developers have come to expect from a quality site like stack overflow. Like telling you to read the documentation, use the search feature, marked as duplicate, why you're even using that programming language for this, or shilling it's new JavaScript framework that came out last week. All the while reminding you that it's superior and really can't be bothered with your stupid question.

Man, jokes aside, if StackOverflow dies in this current wave of corps going belly up, that'll be a huge blow. StackOverflow and Reddit accounted for about 90% of useful search results on tech topics.

In ChatGPT there is no accountabilty or expectation of veracity. It was really just a demostration. Hopefully newer models will do better than that.
