Are Q&A sites like Fluther going to be done for now that AI is getting more popular?

No. Or you would have asked AI for this question. For giggles ask AI this question and post the answer.
I am also here for socializing making friends and improving my grammar.

Good point.
Copied response from AI:

It’s hard to say for sure! AI is definitely getting more popular and can provide quick answers, but Q&A sites like Fluther still have a unique community aspect. People enjoy sharing their own experiences and getting personalized advice from real humans. So, I think there’s still a place for both! What do you think?

That was Snapchat AI to be honest. Did not realize chat GPT was free. Chat GPT says:

While AI’s increasing popularity does affect many online spaces, it’s unlikely that Q&A sites like Fluther or similar platforms will be “done for” entirely. However, there are some key factors to consider in this context:

1. AI as a Complement, Not a Replacement: AI tools like ChatGPT can provide quick answers to general questions, but they still lack the nuanced, human experiences and perspectives that Q&A communities like Fluther offer. People often turn to these sites for personalized advice, specific expertise, and community engagement, which AI may not fully replicate.

2. Human Interaction & Trust: Many users value the authenticity and relatability of responses from other people on these sites, especially in communities where trust and empathy play a big role. AI may struggle to match this in some contexts, like emotional support or nuanced advice.

3. Specialized Knowledge: Some Q&A sites attract experts or niche communities that share knowledge in areas AI may not yet be fully equipped to address accurately. This could continue to make human-powered Q&A valuable, especially for in-depth or domain-specific questions.

4. AI Integration: It’s possible that Q&A sites will incorporate AI in some form, whether as a tool to assist users in generating responses or as a way to summarize or filter content. AI could help improve search functionality, answer quality, or even engage users more effectively, but the human element would still likely be needed for rich, varied interaction.

In short, while AI is definitely influencing how we search for and interact with information, human-driven Q&A sites are likely to continue evolving alongside it, serving specific needs that AI might not fully satisfy.

GQ.

We are friends here so I hope AI doesn’t put fluther out of business. For now, AI can’t have a conversation like a human being to really talk about a topic where communication can be complicated.

I guess Fluther is an exception, most sites like Reddit or Quora do not have a small community where everyone knows eachother. But even then, Reddit has small communities within it so. Yeah, AI cannot beat human bonds

I love that I contradicted myself. Most of reddit is large communities, with some smaller ones. But is not mainly small like Fluther. That is what I meant to say

There is no community in A.I. if anything, it will cause a resurgence of message boards like this.
