The [Discourse AI plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-ai/259214) is open-source and free to install, but you have to either host your own AI service or utilize a third party like ChatGPT, which will have a cost related to how much it gets used.

You can follow the guide to install plugins: [Install plugins on a self-hosted site](https://meta.discourse.org/t/install-plugins-on-a-self-hosted-site/19157)
