hello,

I have been diving into these anonymous boards and stuff. I wanted to know if anyone use it for any actual purposes like for getting some tech knowledge or something?

Then you sorely misunderstand what 4chan is about and hyperfocus on the offensive parts.

You're right. A real bot trained on 4chan would be too busy arguing about circumcision.

I think i'm missing the context about the circumcision thing. Where did you get that from exactly?

I'm making another generalization about the dredges of content on 4chan. Go to any 4chan porn board or thread from the last 20 years and eventually it devolves into an argument about circumcision.
