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!

    ChatGPT+, Github Copilot and Copilot X. I’m pretty green yet so maybe I’m getting more out of it than a seasoned vet would. I just feel so much more productive and I’m learning faster since Copilot will offer 10 solutions and there always seem to be one that intrigues me with its novelty.

    I like the conversational nature of ChatGPT and I love that I’m not getting judged. I can ask the dumbest questions all day long and not sweat that it’s going to cost me the next promotion. Not too say I don’t reach out to people, but I keep the really dumb shit between me and GPT.
