What are all these *_bot accounts on my Discourse that are all TL4, please? ![]()
AI-generated summary
The discussion addresses the appearance of numerous *_bot accounts on Discourse instances. Richie inquired about these accounts, which are all identified as TL4. awesomerobot explained that these bots appeared due to ongoing AI development work that moved agents to individual user accounts. Users who do not utilize the AI bot feature or plugin can remove them, and a fix is being implemented to prevent their creation for those with AI disabled. Richie acknowledged the explanation and noted a related post regarding managing bots in the admin interface.
There’s some related discussion here: Unwanted bots
The tl;dr is that these appeared for everyone due to some ongoing AI work that moved agents to individual users, but can now be removed if you don’t use the AI bot feature or AI plugin
Thanks for the details @awesomerobot
