That explains all the AI crap they've been chasing for a while now. They've been trying to juice up the value to make it look appealing to potential buyers because you can basically slap "AI" on anything and it instantly shoots up in value.

Discord is effectively dead if this goes through.

[...]
The people, who requested anonymity because the conversations are confidential, cautioned that the talks were still exploratory and that I.P.O. plans remained subject to change.

Duuude. Discord is a dumpster fire right now. I'm interested to see how much hotter that fire can get.
