This change is deliberate.

We used to create users per language model, this is very confusing and was very hard to explain.

Instead we now create a user for **every** AI agent that has `AI Bot` enabled. This is a far easier to explain state of affairs.

You have a user for “forum helper” cause you are allowing users to talk to “forum helper”

I know this was disruptive, but at least the current new state of affairs is a lot easier to explain.
