Note: I am not a Discourse employee and not a OpenAI employee but a category moderator on the OpenAI forum (creators of ChatGPT and GPT 4) and have been using many of the Discourse AI features even during development.

Yes it is part of the [Discourse AI plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-ai/259214) specifically [Semantic Related Topics](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-ai/259214#semantic-related-topics-8).
