Ask HN: Has the use of 'Ask HN' posts decreased since the release of ChatGPT?

I'm curious about this trend. Perhaps someone could reply with data and their methodology.

Unfortunately the Hacker News BigQuery dataset hasn't been updated since Sep 2022, otherwise this question would be as easy as a SQL query.

Why don't you ask ChatGPT? ^_^;

Here it goes:

"As of my last training data up to April 2023, I don't have the capability to directly access or analyze real-time internet data or databases, including those from Hacker News. Therefore, I can't provide a specific answer or data on trends related to 'Ask HN' posts in relation to the release of ChatGPT."

For once an accurate answer.

ime, "Ask HN" is not a place you go looking for a specific answer, it is a place for advice, personal stories, and general discussion. Those are the _last_ things I'd ask ChatGPT about.
