How bizarre! What do they get out of being on that site??

[Steve Miller]

Bots my line!

[AdagioM]

Bots wanna have fun?

Training AI models?

Maybe they'll learn civilized discourse.

Ha ha. I feel like we all escaped to a closet to continue our conversations outside of their scrutiny, but they are running wild around the house. Is there anyone watching us here?

@pique - Too funny.

Is there anyone watching us here?

Good question. I looked at the admin forum dashboard and I do see some statistics for forum page views, and one of the categories is Bot Page Views. Not sure exactly what that represents and how it compares to the number of Guests on groupee.

Maybe @Axtremus can fill us in on how this works, and whether we can opt out of being a source for AI training if we choose. Though as @Big_Al said, maybe we'd be contributing something of value to AI.
