"Code Red" at @StackOverflow in late 2022 🔥
Our entire ad-based model was at risk from the AI shift.
We pivoted hard: become the trusted enterprise context layer for humans *and* AI agents.
What we learned (thread 👇):
- Customers guided us to verified context, not just more data
- Stack Internal was born: gold-standard knowledge for devs + agents
- Evolved public Stack Overflow with @OpenAI & @Google partnerships
Biggest lesson for tech leaders: Listen to users, move fast, build the compounding layer.
What AI-driven pivot has *your* company made? 👇
We had a full "Code Red" moment at @StackOverflow in late 2022. 🔥
Ad-dependent model wasn’t going to survive the AI shift.
So we made a brutal pivot: double down on becoming the trusted enterprise context layer for humans *and* AI agents.
Here’s what we learned →

Agree with this perspective from @cdixon and @DavidGeorge83 of @a16z. The basic model of the internet is rapidly changing and the "covenant" or implicit agreement between content / knowledge providers is being re-written as we speak.
We at @StackOverflow have proactively moved quickly to construct a new knowledge solutions framework called Knowledge As a Service, where we work symbiotically with the big AI labs and cloud hyper-scalers like @OpenAI and @Google amongst several others, to ensure we bring the best of Humans and AI to our users and for the world to keep going around, responsibly.
“What happens to the billion other websites if they aren’t getting traffic?”
@cdixon raises a topic few are talking about: AI isn’t just disrupting search—it's changing the internet's economic model.
For decades, websites provided platforms with content in exchange for traffic. AI flips this—content fuels its model, but traffic doesn’t always flow back.
As users turn to AI for answers instead of the traditional search, control is becoming increasingly concentrated in the hands of a few dominant systems.
He’s worried about the future of the internet, and what this shift means for creators. To address this, he asks: What new incentive structures or architectures should we be thinking about?

Enjoyed my conversation on the @SliceofTC podcast in collaboration with HumanX on:
1. AI's Impact on Developer Ecosystems: @StackOverflow’s role in supporting developers as AI shifts how code is written and learned.
2. The Rise of "Knowledge as a Service": Integration of Stack Overflow's resources into AI tools like GitHub Copilot for seamless developer access.
3. Tackling AI Challenges: Addressing trust, LLM brain drain, and AI-generated knowledge gaps to support innovation.
4. Future Vision: Stack Overflow as an authentic, human-centered community for technologists amidst evolving AI ecosystems.
5. AI Democratization: Lowering barriers to entry for new developers through prompt engineering and AI-assisted coding.
We discussed AI's Impact on Developer Ecosystems and more in episode 48!

Thank you to @WeAreDevs for the opportunity to share @StackOverflow's vision of becoming the Knowledge As A Service engine for the AI stack - the most trusted and accurate knowledge store of technology information that brings together Humans & AI to ensure developers and technologists get their answers to their questions wherever they are in their workflow - in GenAI tools, ChatOps tools or their IDEs.

In my latest article on the @StackOverflow blog, I discuss how vector databases, like @weaviate_io, are designed to be AI-native.
E.g., we discuss the importance of a tight integration with the GenAI tech stack, such as vectorizers & LLMs.

15 anos de Stack Overflow!
ALT poster celebrativo dos 15 anos do stack overflow. é um grande e complexo (e confuso, desculpem) infográfico mostrando a evolução da plataforma nos últimos 15 anos. no centro do gráfico, o número 15. Saindo do centro, em sentido horário, uma espiral segmentada nos últimos 15 anos mostrando quais tags foram mais populares em cada ano, uma pergunta popular, e um acontecimento importante do ano. Por exemplo, em 2014 (ano em que entrei no Stack Overflow), as tags mais populares foram Javascript, Java e PHP. A pergunta foi "What's the difference between tilde and carret in package.json". O acontecimento foi "Sillicon Valley estreia na HBO". Se você leu isso via ferramentas de acessibilidade e se interessou, me fala que eu faço a descrição dos outros anos!
