The big idea
Most Discord servers have bots. Some are AI (chat with users, moderate based on behavior). Some are simple programs (give a role when you type a command). Both useful, different.
Some examples
- MEE6, Carl-bot: many use AI for moderation.
- Music bots: usually just programs (not really AI).
- AI chatbots in some servers: real AI you can chat with.
- Custom AI bots: users can build them now (some really good).
