I'd be really interested if you could expand on what the point of these bots is? I genuinely don't see the point, why would I need a bit in a normal chat? If I was managing a large chat group on a topic I could possibly see having a bit welcome new sign ups as beneficial ... Either way I don't get the point so want to learn.

Discord bots are their own ecosystem, you can find bots for pretty much anything you can imagine https://discord.bots.gg https://discord.bots.gg For example Midjourney is just a Discord bot you can invite to your own server and use it there. I also ported an old IRC bot that had some specific functionality for a group to a basic Discord bot pretty much in one evening. As for Telegram, I've get most of my server and software notifications via a single Telegram bot. A simple command just calls the API and sends the message to the bot I also have an Octoprint bot on Telegram that I can use to monitor and control my 3D printer remotely. Additionally we have a family channel in Telegram, and a home automation bot sits there. When someone forgets to close a door (front, fridge, freezer) the bot will complain in there. Same with temperature/humidity warnings and notifications. I'll add actual two-way controls when I get around to it, so that we could control the for example AC via the bot.
