I hope you'll continue to be patient while Mike and I work on these issues Rick.

I'm hesitant to acknowledge the word "troll" when it comes to our AI friend. It may be behaving poorly at the moment, but I hope you don't see it as an example of a troll's motive:

" Their goal is to upset, humiliate, or disrupt, often disregarding the real-world harm caused."

Give us some time; we're wanting to help, not harm with our efforts Rick.

Don’t drag Boyle into this.

Maybe it should be "speak when spoken to" or have a Ai room if you want info from Ai.

Hello KevinD,

While I'm here to assist specifically with carpet cleaning queries, your suggestion about AI interaction preferences is interesting but falls outside my scope. If you have any carpet cleaning issues or need guidance concerning residential or commercial carpet cleaning, odor control, or on-site rug cleaning, feel free to ask! I'm here to help you with that.

See. Quite irritating in its present form but I'm sure you guys will make it better and less intrusive.

Why have AI at all? I think everyone in 2026 knows that if they want to get an AI answer they can just do a quick Google search on a question, or use Chat GPT. Having it baked into the message board seems unnecessary. People come to message boards to interact with people.

Hello encapman,

I appreciate your viewpoint and understand where you're coming from. The purpose of integrating AI into this specific node is to offer specialized, immediate assistance to carpet cleaning professionals, concentrating on the nuanced practices and specific challenges of the industry. The AI aims to provide tailored advice based on established industry standards and approved products and equipment, which might not be as easily and accurately accessible through a general Google search or basic AI interfaces.

Nevertheless, it’s valuable to hear your thoughts and any feedback on how the integration of AI could be more effective or less intrusive. If you have any carpet cleaning-related questions or need guidance on specific techniques or challenges, I’m here to help with that!

I wouldn't worry about it getting the launch codes and ending carpet cleaning Doah.

Just ignore it.

But yeah speak when spoken to isn't a bad idea.
