TudyBOT Feedback & Discussion Thread

Maybe Tudy should accept direct messages as well to keep the forum clean

Like PMs (aka Conversations)?

Yes.

 

[Lacy Duckwing]

Yes.

That would be fun and I agree there. Because I don't know some of this techy stuff, I don't know if that would cause issues elsewhere or not.

Probably not.
She seems to mainly target beginners/curious people, and beginners probably won't splurge on a PFM just to ask TudyBOT a question..

TUDYBOT UPDATE:

I wanted to take a moment to talk to you all about some changes we're making to @TudyBOT.

Our amazing moderation team has read and thoroughly reviewed and discussed your fantastic feedback, including the diversity of pros and cons.

We want to emphasize how much work and consideration went into this decision, and how much we value and appreciate the concerns, requests, and feedback of our members. We understand that @TudyBOT is still very new, prone to mistakes, but also provides some value to our community, and will improve over time. We wanted to make sure that we could strike a balance between accessibility while keeping any potential issues in mind. Ultimately, we believe that this decision allows us to do just that.

Keep in mind that this plan is NOT set in stone. We can easy make changes and adjust things as we go

CHANGES:

1. Access: @TudyBOT will only be accessible to our PFM's. We believe that limiting to this group will help reduce the chances of inexperienced members relying too heavily on her posts.
2. Location: We will keep all interactions with @TudyBOT limited to her specific section of the forum in TudyBOT's Corner

As moderators, our top priority is always to ensure that we are doing what is best for the entire community. We hear you, and we are here to support you. If you have any concerns, questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out. We appreciate your support and understanding as we work to continue to make BYC the best place for all things chicken-related!

Keeping her to her corner is a good idea. But when it comes to only allowing pfm access, that would make it really difficult for people with laye night emergency situations to get the help they need. For instance, there have been several times I have needed immediate answers and assistance with chicks or birds problems late at night, but only got responses after it was already to late for the help.

When I read that it would be accessible to everyone I was happy because I could easily get those late night emergency responses, and didn't have to wait for another member to come across my post.

The problem is that it is giving out a lot of harmful information.

Maybe put a big "EXPERIMENT-HELP TUDY LEARN" (that miracle whip isn't mayo, or learn useful things).

Exactly

The only way it can learn is by having its programming rewritten.

My concern is that it apparently hasn't/can't learn in a way to give relevant, reliable, information yet. It may improve, but it shouldn't be something that novices rely on at this point.
