Stack Overflow is rolling out AI generated answers

Funny.<p>I was recently doing some JavaScript programming, which I haven&#x27;t done for a while. My search results were full of usual slop, with reams of overly verbose context and restatements of the question finally (sometimes) leading to a possible answer several pages in.<p>By contrast, Stack Overflow, while perhaps a little dated in its content, was relatively succinct, and overall was a much better source of information. Ultimately, &quot;mdn&quot; was the solution to my search quality, but I&#x27;d still sometimes fall back to SO for different perspectives.<p>I said to a colleague that I thought SO actually had a goldmine of valuable information there, and if only they could hold out until the AI hype passed, they&#x27;d reap the benefits.
