Now that ChatGPT has moved the world of bots and AI closer to center stage, starting to see mention of using the data from a Discourse forum as training data. As such this topic seemed like one of two possiblities for such, the other being the Discourse Rest API.

I know admins have the ability to grab a backup and then santize the data, having a known standard would be prefered.

Can we get a current status on this even it is only, no change since last time. 🙂
