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:
a lot of fundamental questions for each topic have already been asked
few new programming languages gained popularity over the last decade (I think golang was the last major one)
discussions on GitHub and to a lesser extent GitLab have taken over a lot of traffic
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.
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.
The next step by their moderators is to delete the question, which will lose the valuable material forever.
Stack Exchange also dislikes humour.
And Embarcadero keeps deleting useful sites.
So for posterity, here is the question plus answers in full, amended with archived versions of each link when still available (I used † to mark the dead ones):
A while ago, I wanted to convert the dl delimited list htmlelement on a web page into a regular table so I could more easily reorder the data into cells.
So I ran the below bit of code in the Chrome Console after first putting the mentioned table with id here_table in the place where I wanted the table to be included:
