Why would you want to search for the letter I?

That was just a quick example about the strange search functionality, I definitely had times where I searched for 1 character as part of my search. Example above - "Venture X". Similarly "Bugaboo Fox 5"
"Capital 1"
"1 Amex point"

Without the quotes it would include every post that has that letter even if it was in middle of a word.

Even if it didn't have the first word?

Add it to the list of issues with the forum search. Being forced to use quotations and learning how to phrase searches to get semi-useful results is kinda crazy for 2025. We learned how to google 25 years ago yet we still need @TimT to locate highly relevant content.

That is what you get with 25 year old forum software.

we need to adapt AI transformers to the forum,
  • which will directly answer questions based on models trained on DDF dataset.
  • Summarize threads
  • analyze users based on posts
  • detect bots and spammy content
  • Visualize the interests of DDF users
  • Create Friday and Monday worthy AI humorous generated feed
  • Prevent posts about kashrus and halacha in threads where they don't belong

Nice model of how AI posts will look like.

If it's trained on DDF dataset, there will be no direct answers to questions. Ask CV.

Summarize threads

Impossible. DDF is too ADD and multilingual to accurately summerize without things getting lost in translation.

analyze users based on posts

Lol! A la CV's paintings? Don't need AI for that.

detect bots and spammy content

TimT will get flagged a bot for his supercomputer capabilities, and a bunch of regular, well respected users will get flagged for "spammy content."

Visualize the interests of DDF users

This will either result in a virtual hallucinogenic experience, or it will paint the forum as some kind of alt-right cult.

Create Friday and Monday worthy AI humorous generated feed

NTorch will be out of a job and YitzyS will lose likes. You'll have a revolt on your hands.

Prevent posts about kashrus and halacha in threads where they don't belong

Lol! Halacha and kashrus always belong, even when they tick me off. Besides, the post count will drop by 80% and DDF users engagement stats will suffer, so that's a net loss to the site.
