Hi,
Chatgpt is definitely unreliable.
So is stackoverflow, you have no guarantee
to get a realiable answer. Sometimes they
have even biased nonsense, due to the over
representation of certain communities on
stackoverflow. But ChatGPT it is easier to
re-iterate a problem and explore solutions,
you don't get punished for sloppy questions,
or changing topic midflight exploring corner
digging deeper and deeper.
ChatGPT certainly beats stackoverflow.
Also stackoverflow is extremly hysteric about
keeping every comment trail, and has a very
slow garbage collection. I think stackoveflow
automatically deletes a answer with negative
votes after a while. On the other hand ChatGPT
keeps a side bar with all the interactions,
and you can delete an interaction any time
you want to do so. There is no maniac idea to
keep interactions. Stackoverflow possibly
only keeps this interactions to be able to
send people to their virtual prison. Basically
they have become a perverted para-governemental
institution that exercises violence.

Neither.
One is a joke, the other is not reliable.
The few people in stackoverflow aren't there to tell you what the
solution to a particularly difficult, or novel, question is. They're
there to learn from _you_. In interacting with those Bozos you'll end up struggling more and more to find the solution because of how idiotically
they behave and try to make you hopeless, and when you at last find the solution all by yourself, they know you'll be tempted to show it to them
to prove your point. And that's how those suckers suck others.
Even the now defective Google Search beats stackoverflow. You just have
to ignore its numerous references to stackoverflow.
I mentioned "the few people in stackoverflow" because 99 percent of
people who are nominally members have left that site forever and out of disgust. But SO keeps their membership alive to boast a large pool of members. They're actually a bunch of 10 or 15 people, all of them
moderators, all of them cluless like any moderator actually is.
Chatgpt is definitely unreliable. It can only throw you on some form of starting point that makes some sense. You must do the rest, including
using other starting points.
