After spending a lot of time with AI in general and tons of different AI tools over the past years, I felt there was a need for a forum to discuss AI in a beginner-friendly way. In short, how to use AI but also how to create better AI tools.

My aim: A forum that goes beyond just news, prompts, or AI-generated images—a space for deeper, open discussions (and without unnecessary politicization like on Reddit).

Since 2022, I’ve worked with AI full-time and seen or encountered myself with countless common questions I want to help answer. Instead of a static website, I thought maybe a forum would be a good platform. Creating a Wordpress content site just feels 2015... A forum creates much more open and up-to-date content.

The content creation process in underway...

Some notes about my Xenforo setup:
  • Standard XF style, but with modified colors and fonts. I usually install custom styles, but that created a lot of problems with upgrades I've noticed. So this time I will try the default style, think it looks pretty custom anyway.
  • Mostly background extension like Cloudflare & Better Analytics. Managed to get a pretty good 90/100 score on https://pagespeed.web.dev/
  • Changed the font and lots of font settings. Check it out, it feels different. Much better readability I think.
  • Spent a lot of time improving the front page experience.
Let me know what you think.
 
Looks cool! Best of luck with it. It's a high ranked keyword so organic growth shouldn't be a problem.
 
Looks good. Easy to read . Not too sure about the teal/green black theme but overall it looks good! I hope you have great success with your community!

  • This is a great idea. A dedicated, beginner-friendly AI forum without all the noise from other platforms is definitely needed. The space feels underserved. Good luck!

looks like a solid idea honestly. a beginner-friendly space without hype, politics, or prompt spam is very needed right now. i like the focus on real discussion and learning, not just outputs. the forum format makes sense for evolving topics, and xenforo is a good choice for long-term quality conversations. curious to see how the discussions grow once more people join

This looks awesome! I love the idea of a beginner-friendly AI forum for real discussions beyond news or images. The layout and readability improvements make it feel modern and user-friendly. Excited to check out AI Forum X and see the content grow!
 
This looks like a fantastic initiative—especially the focus on keeping discussions beginner-friendly without overwhelming users. Platforms like this are exactly what the AI space needs right now, where people can actually learn, ask questions, and grow.


I also love how it goes beyond just tools and trends into deeper conversations. That’s something we’re actively seeing more demand for in communities like Honest AI, where transparency, real use cases, and practical insights matter more than hype.


Wishing you great success with AI Forum X—this has strong potential to grow into a valuable hub for both beginners and experienced users! 🚀
