| Dec 3 at 15:00 | comment | added | Ash Zade Staff | Sorry, I thought you meant the home page component. I got mixed up. Unfortunately the answer is the same: because it was hosted off-platform on stackoverflow.ai, we had no way to connect it to users on SO to track and understand behaviour. Now we will be able to. | |

| Dec 3 at 14:57 | comment | added | Ash Zade Staff | @user400654 that's a great question. Given we just launched this yesterday, we don't know yet. My hypothesis is that they will spend more time on site and be served more content from SO than if they used traditional search. We'll share our findings as we collect data and can make more confident inferences. | |

| Dec 3 at 6:20 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | "baking cakes is not on-topic" Maybe you want to write software to run an oven and need some inside knowledge? | |
| Dec 2 at 17:51 | comment | added | Ash Zade Staff | It always ends with that line because we want encourage participating in the community. We take users to the SO ask page because the high majority of AI Assist usage has been for SO topics, but we plan to make the button dynamic to route to the right community or communities where there may be more than one. | |

Also, we might ask, "why" the SO's AI Assist suggests to search "waky cake eggless recipe" ? It should only recommend searching for stuff that exists in Stack Overflow.
