Stack Exchange's Questions per Month

TLDR: There are currently 5,025 questions posted on StackExchange in December 2025. And while the month is not yet over, by month's end it will come extremely close to having the fewest number of questions posted since Stack Exchange's second month on record (August 2008), when 5,346 questions were posted.
I was just wondering the other day (after a long back and forth with some AI about a technical issue involving PostgreSQL) how AI was impacting this platform. What a massive loss in interactions! Is there anything besides AI that could explain this?
I'm sure AI is the final nail in the coffin, but SO allowed the community and culture to cannibalize its growth long before AI became relevant.
