AI Assistant on DCS Website Main Screen

[Crowman]

Hi All.

Just a quick post to enquire about the issue just noticed in the title of this post, have we been assigned an AI assistant for the website or is it something more sinister. I await your posts with interest.

Regards Crowman

Not shure why this is a question...

Just go to https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/ and look on the bottom right corner and you will have your answare.

The new AI assistant has just been made public and can be used to search DCS related topics and questions. It takes information from our website and manuals and has been tested internally for a while now. 

It is pretty good if you ask specific questions, but it is still learning. 

thank you

It's rather annoying that it keeps popping up every page load, even when you acknowledge it and make it go away, and it keeps taking up some screen space down there.

Fine, keep it if you want, but give us some way to minimize it down to a button and stop the "Hi (hand wave) How can I assist you? If you have any questions about our products let me know" messages every page load.

Hi Bignewy.

Thanks for confirming that the AI assistant has been implemented by ED and not by someone else, this is the information I was after Thank you.

Happy Bug Hunting.

Yeah, some answers were impressing but still:

- couldn't answer if I can drive a tank or contact another player in a tank

- confusing RL and DCS aircraft upgrades

- provides made up info or just pure lies about some systems

- didn't know anything about incoming Iraq

me: "hi, what are you able to do?"

AI: "I'm here to assist you with questions related to the DCS (Digital Combat Simulator) and its various modules, including providing information about aircraft, missions, and gameplay mechanics. If you have specific questions about a product or need help with a particular feature, feel free to ask!"

edit:

me: "do you know bignewy?"

AI: "Bignewy is a member of the DCS community and is recognized for his contributions, particularly in testing and support roles. He is mentioned in the context of the L-39 Albatros flight manual as part of the testing team."

I had to educate the bot what do different symbols on Hornet's RWR mean. He was thinking that "5" stands for F-15. Poor bot
