But SO and tutorials are still very useful if you're smart about hwo you use them. Same thing with ChatGPT - having a general interactive "answer-anything, tutor-me-on-anything" tool is a big deal; you just need to be smart about how you use it (prompting it well, verifying the outputs), and the results are surprisingly good especially with GPT-4.
