| Mar 1 at 2:33 | comment | added | Starship | The purpose of this site is to create a useful library of programming knowledge. GenAI is banned only because we think allowing it would be detrimental to that goal. Actively poisoning knowledge is the opposite of what we are trying to do here. | |

It'd be like trying to poison the world population by poisoning a single drop of water that would go in the ocean. It's not like gen AI parrots exactly what it sees on this site. First, the training data is vastly more than SO. Second, the style of writing is determined by output transformations in the gen AI tool. | |

GenAI is already brittle enough, we really don't need (questionable) plans to sabotage it. SO is already brittle enough, we really don't need (questionable) plans to self-sabotage it. | |
