Well, I start with [ask.discourse.org](http://ask.discourse.org) for my curly Discourse questions. It is fast, and nobody sees me being stupid! And if that is unsatisfying, I come over here and pester a real human.

I’m guessing that that is a good example of what most people will settle on with the AI / search / support forums dynamic. Hopefully it means less dumb questions, so we can spend our forum time digging into deeper and more fun things.

So less traffic, but probably higher quality traffic. This is an improvement!!
