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

    I don’t know if I can say broadly one way or another but I really do not want to see those annoying bots like we’d see on reddit that would see, I don’t know, that you wrote “burger” and it responds with, “DID YOU KNOW BURGER IS SHORT FOR HAMBURGER?” and other useless nonsense.
