I think that it can be a good change depending on how you interpret it but suppose it becomes part of Google search engine then, wouldn't it allow Google's AI quick summary to search/scrape that and have it part of training process

Or having all of the search/scrape data itself be part of the training process of Google/other's AI process?

A quick LLM search gives me the answer as a "maybe", but knowing the financial incentives at hand and why Discord might be opening up. I remain slightly skeptical as to why Discord wishes to open up to Google*

they aren't opening up to google specifically. any search engine will be able to index the content on the server web pages.

one of the biggest complaints about discord (other than all of the grooming and such) is that communities move to discord and then all of their (previously freely available) information is locked behind a login.

addressing a big complaint that many people have about your service is a good financial move.

Based on what I've read, there will be a short summary then you are given the login page. Not unlike a paywalled news website. Still an improvement, but it does not fully address this criticism.

My apologies. I didn't see that and skimmed through the web-page and I thought that it was a discord-google specific deal.

True, that can very well be the case but my question of AI training still stands. Couldn't this make many discord texts/discussions part of AI training corpus and AI models as has been the case for many such situations.

I but am just slightly worried about all the AI training that can happen but other than that, its a good change!
