StackOverflow partners with OpenAI. What do you think?

from Web Dev with Matt · host Matthew Setter

If you're not aware, on May 6th, StackOverflow and OpenAI announced a partnership where OpenAI will have access to StackOverflow's API. This will allow ChatGPT to be trained, with attribution, from StackOverflow's large corpus of data. If you're a StackOverflow user, are you okay with this? Do you feel comfortable knowing that your contributions, which may be uneditable and unremovable, will be used in this way? Are you not bothered by it at all? I'm not wholly comfortable with the announcement, so am sharing my thoughts in this episode. I'd love to get your take. Links from the episode Partnership announcement from OpenAI Stack Overflow bans users en masse for rebelling against OpenAI partnership — users banned for deleting answers to prevent them being used to train ChatGPT (via Tom's Hardware) Stack Overflow users deleting answers after OpenAI partnership (via Hacker News) Stack Overflow users sabotage their posts after OpenAI deal (via ArsTechnica) The End Of StackOverflow Want to grow your knowledge further?
