Most questions on SO these days are very specific so I doubt ChatGPT would be able to come up with good answers for those. All the easy questions have been answered long ago.
Especially since ChatGPT can’t think of a new answer, right? It’s working off data that’s already somewhere online. It’s just using predictive text based to determine the next word based on what users have typed. So most of these answers people get from “AI” are out there for these people to get from real people.
I don’t know why you’re getting down voted. That is how it works to my understanding (as a layperson). It was fed training data and is very good at predictive text. I don’t think it can take concepts it’s learned and apply them in novel ways.
This is hilarious but I don’t think fully answers the question. This is a good example of something novel that GPT can do, ie manipulating language according to new rules to create rhythm and rhymes.
However, to give a more over the top example: if you removed all mention of planes from its corpus, leaving only information on air resistance and materials science, and then asked it for the best way to cross the Atlantic, it would never invent a plane for you.

Sure it can: https://chat.openai.com/share/6e0ab777-a9c4-4b70-8636-ccac19a78136

I swear, uninformed people who underestimate AI will be the death of us
