  • I get "User not found. Please ask a question first." when trying to answer. Why would I have to ask another question first?
  • I like it. I asked a real question and got some decently thought-out answers. I answered a few as well, so at least I know it's not 100% AI responses!
  • I got excited by the title, thinking that questions were going to be answered by human monastics. But it's not really "ask a monk," is it? It's "ask a random stranger on the Internet."

    FWIW you don't need an Internet service to ask questions of a real monk. You just need to find a monk in whatever religion or monastic order you want, and ask your question. Some even have email addresses.

  • I was pretty sure it was built by and also run by an LLM (eg. openclaw), the same user setup a tuhat account a few weeks ago
