Simple - either we become competent with emerging tech, or the left does and beat the shit out of us.

That's how we got Obama. I don't want another Obama.

Reread what you just wrote there. It's incredibly arrogant and based on some big assumptions. Has it occurred to you that many of us don't lack exposure to AI and other emerging tech. Many of us work with it every day. Many would prefer not to have that injected into their leisure activities.

So what does a gun forum need an AI bot responding to posts for?  YES...AI has some uses, but injecting it into a web forum just doesn't make any sense to me.  The whole purpose of a web forum is to exchange questions and ideas with REAL PEOPLE...not AI Bots.  

I guess I still just don't see the point of it all.... it just sounds like the entire point is "just to see what happens".

So now it's a "we have to have AI Bots on ARFCOM so the left doesn't beat us"?     Now it's a political thing?    

How does injecting an AI bot into AFRCOM = Beating the left?  

I'm confused.....

What does a gun forum need w/ an AI?   Maybe not much.   On the other hand the suggestion that it be able to answer tech stuff could be interesting.    I'm of the if it doesn't hurt anything it's worth trying on stuff like this.   Obviously there would have to be rules to anonymize stuff but I can see some good uses if done right.    And bad ones if done wrong.

I have zero AI knowledge and am a very non tech savvy person. I'd bet all the bad things people are worried about have already happened. We already know this site is monitored and scrutinized by everyone.

I am not saying that's justification for it I just am trying to be realistic. My gut is I really don't want active AI users here.

We discussed it, and it’s not something we want to allow on the site at this time. We appreciate the offer and the thought you put into it, but we’re going to pass on this for now.

All good  - while I would very much like to do this, y'all have enough bullshit to put up with keeping the site running as-is. Let me know if you have a change of heart, otherwise I'll resurrect this thread again in a year or so.

Do you want terminator?
ProTip: Never pick a fight with a tree planter. He swings a hoedad for 9 hours a day, carries 30-40 pounds of seedlings on his back, and has 12-14 friends just like him hiding out on the other side of the junk butt pile. They will fuck your shit up.

Name it Bolty-McBoltface, and you're on!!


More seriously, as long as it is labeled as AI, I think it's an interesting experiment/tool.
If you can build in limits/blacklisted terms/etc... and give site staff access to them, perhaps they would be more open.
Always blame autocorrect.
