Hi all, Considering how Discourse determines what Suggested Topics to show, is there a way to also determine suggested topics based on relevance to the current topic the user is reading? Instead of showing topics that are completely unrelated to the topic I have clicked on? Or is best practice to limit suggested to category?

Thoughts on current algorithm on meta?

On meta I notice Related and Suggested topics. Is there a setting I need to enable so I can display both sets of links on my forum?

Just to round this out - Discourse AI now has the Related Topics available: :partying_face: [תמונה]Discourse AI Semantic Related Topics When you get to the end of a topic, Discourse presents you with 5 suggestions of topics to read next. Nowadays, we pick 5 random topics for anonymous users and use the unread topics for logged-in users to populate that list, making it quick to generate but not very useful when you are researching a specific subject. With the new Semantic Related Topics feature, we will use Semantic Textual Similarity between the current topic and all the other topics in your instance to suggest topics that are potentially more relevant to what a person is looking for. This is enabled here on Meta for all, including anon Semantic Search This used the same logic we used for semantic related topics, but to power search results.

That’s actually an upcoming feature that should be available more widely soon.
