This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Maybe we should start asking questions that iterate loops billions of times. Something semi-malicious that a person would recognize but an AI wouldn't.
Nah, the training data probably doesn't quite work that way. The AI would be very unlikely to test code, just regurgitate the most likely response based on it's training sets. Instead just filling posts with random bits and pieces of unrelated code and responses might be better.
Maybe we should replace Stack Overflow with another site where experts can exchange information? We can call it "Experts Exchange".
First, they sent the missionaries. They built communities, facilities for the common good, and spoke of collaboration and mutual prosperity. They got so many of us to buy into their belief system as a result.
Then, they sent the conquistadors. They took what we had built under their guidance, and claimed we "weren't using it" and it was rightfully theirs to begin with.
I mean, they could just do what reddit does and restore from backup automatically lol
Messages that people post on Stack Exchange sites are literally licensed CC-BY-SA, the whole point of which is to enable them to be shared and used by anyone for any purpose. One of the purposes of such a license is to make sure knowledge is preserved by allowing everyone to make and share copies.

Can we change our answers? Change your answers to garbage, don't delete them. Do it slowly.
If you have low karma, then edits are reviewed by multiple people before the edit is saved. That's primarily in place to prevent spam, who could otherwise post a valid question then edit it a few months later transforming the message into a link to some shitty website.
Even with high karma, that just means your edit is temporarily trusted. It's gets reviewed and will be reverted if it's a bad edit.
And any time an edit is reverted, that's a knock against your karma. There's a community enforced requirement for all edits to be a measurable improvement.
Even moderation decisions are reviewed by multiple people - so if someone rejects a post because it's spam, when they should have rejected it because it's off topic (or approved it) then that is also going to be caught and undone. And any harmful contribution (edit or moderation decision) will result in your action being undone and your karma going down. If your karma goes down too fast, your access to the site is revoked. If you do something really bad, then they'll ban your IP address.
Moderators can also lock a controversial post, so only people with high karma can touch it at all.
... keep in mind Stack Overflow doesn't just allow editing your own posts, you can edit any content on the website, similar to wikipedia.
It's honestly a good overall approach, but around when Jeff Attwood left in 2008 it started drifting off course towards the shit show that is stack overflow today.
It's a shame, only corporate are going to be benefiting from hard work & labour of so many talented people.
In the article the dude was banned for 7 days for changing his answer.
So wait a few days, then do it slowly.
I'm almost sure the site has already been scrapped of current contest for the LLM.
Yup, but that's not the point IMO, it's to remove quality content from the site so visitors see how crappy it is and stop using it.
Weren't all the answers already trained on ChatGPT last year?
