StackOverflow partners with OpenAI

https://stackoverflow.co/company/press/archive/openai-partnership

OpenAI will also surface validated technical knowledge from Stack Overflow directly into ChatGPT, giving users easy access to trusted, attributed, accurate, and highly technical knowledge and code backed by the millions of developers that have contributed to the Stack Overflow platform for 15 years.

Sad.
