Stack Overflow

Stack Overflow, a prominent online Q&A platform for programmers, is a rich source of data for research on code generation, question quality, and developer behavior. Current research focuses on leveraging large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and others, along with neural network architectures such as Transformers and CNNs, to improve code generation, predict question quality, and even automate information highlighting within answers. These studies aim to enhance developer productivity, improve the quality of information available on the platform, and understand the evolving relationship between human expertise and AI in software development.
