I wonder how well LLMs would do without SO's data
Or Reddit, or Linux forums.
Exactly this. LLMs are already bad at answering questions about very old technology, and I assume they are equally bad at answering questions about very new technology. Also bad at answering questions that have never been asked. We're doomed.
