Stack Overflow, the go-to question-and-answer site for coders and programmers, has temporarily banned users from sharing responses generated by AI chatbot ChatGPT.
"The primary problem is that while the answers which ChatGPT produces have a high rate of being incorrect, they typically look like they might be good and the answers are very easy to produce," the site's moderators wrote. "For now, the use of ChatGPT to create posts here on Stack Overflow is not permitted."
ChatGPT is an experimental chatbot created by OpenAI and based on its autocomplete text generator GPT-3.5. While many users have been impressed by ChatGPT's capabilities, others have noted its persistent tendency to generate plausible but false responses.
