Interesting article: [Wayback/Archive] Stack Overflow’s forum is dead thanks to AI, but the company’s still kicking… thanks to AI – Sherwood News. with this important quote:
The complex questions still get asked on Stack because there’s no other place. If the LLMs are only as good as the data, which is typically human curated, we’re one of the best places for that, if not the best for technology.
I wonder about how far it has declined now, and also think these are reasons for the decline as well:
Anyway, the graph in that post is just a sexy version of a query you can create yourself on the SEDE (Stack Exchange Data Explorer). That’s why I included both below.

LLM eat a lot of energy and are their hallucination are bad: [Wayback/Archive] LLM-generated passwords ‘fundamentally weak,’ experts say • The Register
Your AI-generated password isn’t random, it just looks that way
…
AI security company Irregular looked at Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, and found all three GenAI tools put forward seemingly strong passwords that were, in fact, easily guessable.
…
Basically they are almost as good as the 2007 XKCD “four” number generator, the 2013 XKCD “I’m So Random” or the 2001 Dilbert “nine” number generator further below (don’t read the latter if you dislike Scott Adams)
Is it a coincidence or are these two using two small squared numbers?
Anyway: avoid LLM whenever possible, as most often they do more bad than good.
And for passwords, better use the blog post that was already scheduled for tomorrow: Generating random strings for passwords and uuids/guids on both Windows and Linux using base64 and hex encoding, plus: “Hive Systems: Are Your Passwords in the Green?”

Below this post, there are some great responses as well.

The below blog post sparked my thought into finally having words for what bothered me for such a long time using LLM for coding:
When using LLM for coding, you basically unlearn to solve simple problems. That practically also removes your ability to solve the difficult problems that LLM cannot help solving.

Because the day we stop struggling with hard problems is the day we stop being programmers, and become something else entirely.
