CTOnews.com May 12 news, the well-known programmer question and answer platform Stack Overflow issued an announcement on May 10, announced that it will cut about 10% of its workforce, and will launch products based on AI / ML (artificial intelligence / machine learning).

"I made a very difficult decision to lay off about 10%, or 58 employees," Stack Overflow's CEO Prashanth Chandrasekar said in the announcement.

"We are supporting these employees through this transition through severance pay, expanded healthcare benefits and re-employment services," Prashanth Chandrasekar said. "our focus this fiscal year is on profitability. In the coming months, we will launch products focused on AI / ML, pursuing agility and flexibility. Our commitment is to continue to provide customers and users of public platforms with the level of service they expect."

With the emergence of AI chat robots such as ChatGPT, more and more programmers are looking for code solutions from AI chat robots instead of Stack Overflow for answers.

According to CTOnews.com, Stack Overflow has recently introduced new rules banning the use of AI chat robot "water answers", and violators can be banned for up to 30 days. In addition, Stack Overflow plans to charge AI algorithm developers in the middle of this year, which means they don't want to be trapped by AI data crawlers.
