[Bruce Scherzinger]

Ironically, perhaps, is the fact that Stack Overflow and technical community forum sites like it are what provided (and still do) these AI databases with their globally accepted "facts". In the end, we may only be left with (maybe) users of AI correcting AI when it's wrong. Of course, that likelihood seems low since if a person already knows the right answer, they likely wouldn't have asked the question in the first place.

So will AI ultimately succumb to the ills of social media alternative facts? Guess we'll see, huh?
