Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Alejandro86 for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, October 17 (Xinhua)-- Stack Overflow is a programmer question and answer platform where users can ask and answer a variety of programming questions, but the number of users of the platform is declining. CTOnews.com previously reported that Musk claimed in July that "the Big language Model (LLM) killed the platform."

Prashanth Chandrasekar, the platform's chief executive, announced yesterday that Stack Overflow would cut 28 per cent of its workforce. (CTOnews.com Note: Stack Overflow has 790 employees, so it is expected to cut 221, according to statistics agency growjo).

Over the past 15 years, we have built Stack Overflow into an important industry knowledge base for millions of developers and technical experts. During this period, we have experienced years full of opportunities and challenges. This year is no exception, from tireless efforts to successfully launch OverflowAI to dealing with the continuing threat of customer budget transfers caused by macroeconomic pressures across the technology industry.

This is why we are so focused on profitability while we are committed to Stack Overflow for Teams's continuous product innovation and ensuring the healthy development of public platforms by enhancing our artificial intelligence / mobile language capabilities.

We have taken many measures to reduce expenditure this year. We have carried out reforms from the point of view of minimizing the impact on Stacker's life. Unfortunately, these changes were not enough, and we made an extremely difficult decision to reduce the number of employees by about 28%.

As we finish this fiscal year and move on to the next, we focus on investing in our products. So we are significantly reducing the size of listed organizations. Support teams and other teams throughout the organization will also be affected.

As I mentioned, our focus this fiscal year and next is on 'profitability', coupled with macroeconomic pressures that have led to today's changes. As we refine our priorities, priorities and strategies to better meet the needs of users, customers and partners, as part of our commitment to product innovation, and OverflowAI's continued momentum on Stack Overflow for Teams and our public platforms. Our new team structure will best enable us to succeed in these initiatives.
