You gave them permission to use it, and they used it in such a way that GPT benefits from it as training data. I'm sorry you misplaced your trust in Stack Overflow for not protecting your public writings. Knowledge is awesome, though, in that it's like a candle and by lighting a new flame, your initial candle is not diminished in any way. It's not even your sole candle but merely one in a roaring bonfire.

> misplaced your trust in Stack Overflow that's a great way to put it, I'm very disappointed they aren't the ones to innovate in this new direction, even though people gave them all the power (and data) to do it. Which they chose to give away to "Open" AI aka Microsoft and now spend their time bickering over GPT detectors and writing nonsensical CEO "vision" posts. Basically, they really are now in a position to fizzle away at this rate, which is a shame, because I believe a community of acknowledged authors is a much more appealing way to advance knowledge than Microsoft anonymously milking the world for their sole profit and credit.
