Thank you all for the constructive discussion. Everything I wanted to point out has already been included in my previous posts. I believe that the open-source forum software Discourse has set forth effective standards for AI. I hope all the forums that played a role in establishing the concept of online forums in the past will follow Discourse example by studying the new AI capabilities developed https://www.discourse.org/ai Respect to you all.

I am not trying to push your views toward entirely AI-generated content. On the contrary, what I wanted to highlight is that there should be supportive tools to help create AI-generated content if the forum administrators wish to do so. And if they prefer to prevent it, they should also be free to do so. In other words, what I want is to provide both the tools and freedom to those in charge—namely the forum owners—to do what is best for their forums, rather than leaving control in the hands of the forum software developers to decide the source of the content. As things stand, we currently have no AI capabilities. It is as if we have, unfortunately, not yet awakened from the coma that the rest of the world suddenly emerged from in 2022, when everyone was hit by a sweeping wave of AI fever. Forum developers must make AI tools available and leave the decision on how to generate content, choose its source, and integrate it to the forum owners alone, as they alone are responsible for those decisions—not the forum developers. Now that I have clarified my perspective, what tools for AI integration has your team implemented? If the answer is, “Yes, we discussed it but did not implement anything,” then I regret to say that development is drastically lagging behind. I call upon management to provide the company’s clients with complete transparency, a clear roadmap, and a defined timeline for implementation, so that we can make the right decision at the right time.

What guarantee is there that I, as a human, would share any content on a platform whose continued existence is not assured? The current preference is to share content on social media platforms, and there are platforms that have surpassed this issue, but they are limited, well-known, and heavily supported. The managerial direction of your platform must change. You are operating with a 1990s and early 2000s mindset, giving priority to human-produced content under the pretext of encouraging human content. I consider this self-deception and a clinging to the classic ideas from when forums were first built. There needs to be a rethinking of the very purpose of forums. From my perspective, a forum is a platform for sharing content—whether that content is produced by humans or generated by artificial intelligence, which is itself originally rooted in human creation. After all, humans are the source of the content, even if AI makes predictions or generates it. I believe we are facing a crisis in how we think about forums, their role, and their scope. The time has come for an end to relying solely on human-generated content to enrich forums; the reality now is that content may be created by either humans or AI, whether we like it or not. We cannot escape this fact. I hope your next product advertisement will be something like this: “Our forums provide AI compatibility: you can set up AI members to help manage and refine content, assign tags, respond to posts under specific conditions, and produce periodic administrative reports to the human forum administrators to evaluate overall performance on all levels—including server performance, search engine metrics, and the volume and quality of content.” This is my vision. You can accept it or reject it, but if you reject it, be prepared—unfortunately, you will not have much left to offer in this era.

Forums, in their traditional sense, are on the verge of extinction because the current trend still focuses more on design than content. The goal of design is to facilitate access to content, encourage its creation, and promote participation through various available methods. In the age of artificial intelligence, AI must be integrated with design in content management, content generation, and even responding to content when necessary. The absence of this mechanism means we are all heading toward the certain extinction of forums. Therefore, AI must be integrated with forums to enrich them with content and make this content accessible to the audience seeking information, whether through traditional search engines or AI platforms that offer the feature of searching for information and its sources. I hope that forum platforms will be re-engineered to reflect the modern trend for all users. This is a great opportunity to re-engineer the concept of forums, which was primarily based on human participation. Now, I imagine it should primarily focus on AI-generated content, followed by human-generated content. We must all wake up before we regret not keeping up with the current advancements happening with the help of artificial intelligence. @Matt@Ehren@Matt Finger@Ryan Ashbrook@Charles@Lindy

I need to see AI agent in the forum to be as an admin member can reply to the orphan topics without reply and also can add tags and sort the topics and move it to the appropriate forum If there is option to do this by adding api keys related to AI module and automate a lot of administration processes

Why the main theme not inheriting the dark mode from windows. Are there any option for this?

You are right., I'm using responsive ads from Google AdSense but the issue the page layout seems to be not compatible 100% with the responsive ads
