Pro Tip: AI Bots Don't Need Exact Commands
If you're using an AI-powered bot like StreamChat AI, viewers don't need to memorize exact commands. They can just ask naturally:
- "What's your Discord?" instead of !discord
- "What game is this?" instead of !game
- "When do you stream?" instead of !schedule
The AI understands intent and responds appropriately. You still get the functionality, but viewers get a more natural experience.
