Experimental "OpenTelemetry AI Assistant" is now available. Feedback is welcome.

When you click in the website's search box, you'll see a link to Ask AI. This is an experimental feature. Let us know what you think, by giving this thread a thumbs up or down, and/or leaving more detailed feedback.

When are newly released docs taken into account by the AI assistant?
I've tried asking it for CICD span semconv, but it is still using v1.32.0 of SemConv and not the latest docs v1.33.0.

Sources refresh weekly (thursdays in your case)

[chalin]

Is that configurable? Can it be made daily? /cc @austinlparker

[dvdksn]

@chalin yep it's configurable. You can also just reingest at any point in time manually on app.kapa.ai (eg for when you have a particular feature that you release & want to make available instantly).

@austinlparker we have a call friday - suggest we talk refresh cadence then

[svrnm]

If daily is feasible that would be great, otherwise weekly + on certain events would by me second best choice, the events would be when we merge spec &| semconv since they are the most important ones to be on spot

[chalin]

@austinlparker - can you report here or on the Comms maintainers Slack channel with an update?

[shuwpan]

Can we have it open as sidebar ? like when we using copilot in vscode ? or open the chat in a separate page ? I sometimes want to copy information from underlying page, and the floating window makes it a bit hard to do that

[svrnm]

look like this is possible:

@shuwpan if you provide a PR to preview this change we can take a look and discuss if this is more preferable over what we have today

I was wondering if we could add a floating "Ask AI" button in the bottom right corner of the website, similar to how it's implemented in the ClickHouse docs:

My thought behind this suggestion is that although I've always seen the "Ask AI or search..." text in the search input, I never noticed the tooltip that appears when clicking on it.

Basically, it wasn't until yesterday that I actually noticed the tooltip and figured out how this feature works! 😅🥲
