ChatGPT generally solves stuff quicker and more precisely for me.

I have yet to receive a badge but could add that to the prompt or custom instructions as an alternative to its encouraging words when I'm nearly there.

It does now. If StackOverflow stopped then it would certainly not be as useful in several years time.

It will just learn directly from the code suggestions it gives you. Did you use the suggestion it gave you? Did you fix it manually? Did you generate or write a test case that passed for the suggestion. There are many ways for such a system to learn.

the context ChatGPT provides around some of my error message inquiry is incredibly useful. on stack overflow, I have to read and discern the context.

this is the whole value of GPT so far, they can pivot the structure and align it to the context at point
