This feature update allows for continuing the conversation with Discobot Discoveries in an AI bot chat. After discoveries gives you a response to your search you can continue with the existing context.
**This update makes a few improvements to search discoveries:**
- [x] in search menu panel: search discoveries should still be triggered when no regular results are present
- [x] in full page search: search discoveries should still be triggered when no regular results are present
- [x] flakiness in search discoveries sometimes not working properly.

This update adds the ability to disable search discoveries. This can be done through a tooltip when search discoveries are shown. It can also be done in the AI user preferences, which has also been updated to accommodate more than just the one image caption setting.
## 🔍 Overview
This update ensures that the streaming for discoveries is smoother, especially on first update.
## ➕ More details
To help with smoother streaming, the discovery preview (which was being tracked as a separate property in the JS logic) will be removed and the entire discovery content will be shown/hidden via the existing CSS. The preview was already receiving the full update even though it was visually hidden, so removing the separate property shouldn't have any negative performance hit. Visually hiding it with CSS only will help simplify the component and also allow for smoother streaming. We will instead remove the buffered streaming approach and instead use typing timers similar to what we did for streaming summarization.
No related tests as streaming animations are difficult to test.
* FEATURE: Experimental search results from an AI Persona.
When a user searches discourse, we'll send the query to an AI Persona to provide additional context and enrich the results. The feature depends on the user being a member of a group to which the persona has access.
