As we aim to provide Discourse AI features to more of our customers, we are excited to announce that Discourse AI - Summarize is now available for Standard, Business, and Free tiers without the need for a 3rd party Large Language Model (LLM) provider.
This means Discourse is now providing a hosted open-weights LLM for customers to enable Summarize.
How do I enable Summarize?
You have the power to enable or disable Summarize at any time from the What's New section. All related customizations, such as who can generate and view summaries, are available within the Discourse AI plugin settings.
What does being an experiment mean?
This means that the AI feature is subject to change at any time, including its feature set and availability. We are using this as a means to test things out while opening the doors for more users to enjoy new features and give feedback.
Hey @patrickemin, yes this announcement is specifically for those using our Standard, Business, and Free hosting tiers. We’re providing the summarization feature for customers without the need for a 3rd party Large Language Model (LLM) provider.
That being said, if you’re self hosted, the Summarization feature is still available to you, although it will require you to setup a 3rd party LLM in the Discourse AI plugin for it to work. You’ll need to grab API keys from a provider and insert those details in the plugin settings.
Sorry for the inconvenience @jonasrosland. There was a small bug preventing the toggle from being shown when rolling this out. This should now be resolved for you.
