What does everyone think of bots on Beehaw? (beehaw.org)

How do you all feel about bots?

I've seen a gpt powered summarization bot pop up recently. Do you find this useful? Do you hate this?

Do you think bots serve any useful purposes on this website or do you think we should ban all bots? Should we have a set of rules for how bots should interact - only when called, needing to explicitly call out they are a bot on their profile, etc?

I'd love to hear your thoughts

Honestly, as a programmer, I'd like the freedom to share bots that can benefit the community. Although, I do think that there should be measures in place to ensure bots don't degrade the quality of the community.

Maybe there could be a community on Beehaw where people could post about their bots and associated commands, so we could learn how they could be called into threads where they would be helpful?

This could be added to docs.beehaw.org ;)
