Here is a glimpse of using the Discourse AI - AI Bot.
For those who have used ChatGPT plugins that let you chat with a PDF, the same could be done with a Discourse site.
As we know, a majority of the questions asked on a forum are already known and available on the forum if a user just looks but many would rather just ask a question first. So why not let the AI give an answer based on the information in the forum.
I don’t recall seeing this suggested and was surprised that it has not been suggested sooner.
