In my opinion, SO doesn’t really have much of a choice here. Not only has the quality of questions and answers been on the decline, the entire SO experience is notoriously hostile for new comers. I find that ChatGPT/GitHub Copilot tend to give much better answers for the vast majority of programming related questions. It’s much faster, easier, and less intimidating to ask your tools questions knowing that you’ll most likely get a high quality answer and not get admonished for having asked the question in the first place. |

I'm not so sure about this.
Firstly, ChatGPT seems to hallucinate quite a lot, which can result in me wasting a lot of time, especially when the hallucinations aren't immediately apparent.
Secondly, presumably the content of Stackoverflow had been used to train ChatGPT... so if Stackoverflow and all of it's human-generated content disappeared, to be replaced by AI-generated content, that could be a bad thing for ChatGPT in the long run.
