However, sam revealed that this feature is already implemented, and EricGT clarified that access is currently limited, indicated by the presence of a robot icon in the upper right corner.

Here is a glimpse of using the Discourse AI - AI Bot.

Discourse AI - AI Bot glimpse

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.
