⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

A.I. Chat removed from site? (feddit.nl)

I just happened to notice that the A.I. chat is no longer on the top bar of the perchance.org website.

I know it's been having issues the last few days (ever since the summary update, really), but this is concerning, combined with the fact there's been no acknowledgement of the bugs from the dev that I've seen.

I'm just worried that it's being discontinued or removed. I'd be absolutely crushed if it went away. Just wondering what's going on?

Let me know if it you still get the “thread isn’t long enough” message (when typing /sum) after chatting for >10 messages, since that would indeed indicate a bug of some sort.

33 messages in and still no summaries. A.I. doesn't appear to remember things outside of the recent chat content.

Hmm. Summaries are working for me on old threads, and on a new thread I just tried. I wonder if the bug caused summarization in that particular thread of yours to "break" somehow. If you're able to try starting a new chat, and get it to about 30,000 characters, and still don't see summaries, then that would confirm that theory. Alternatively, if you can share a saved thread that is broken, then that would allow me to debug this - you can delete text from the chat that isn't shareable (just make sure you confirm that summaries still aren't working after doing that). There's a save button on each chat thread in the list - use that instead of a full export. But note that it will share the characters from the thread along with the messages. No worries if you aren't able to share anything, of course.

Okay, I started a new thread, got it to tell me a short story and then some, still no summaries. I downloaded firefox and tried importing two threads, no summaries. I can dm you the new thread I made for testing if you need.

Edit: Forgot to mention I also went to older threads, which had summaries, haven't been touched since the update, and can't access their summaries either. So yeah, all my threads are like that.

Edit Edit:

Oh, very strange, I have no idea what is causing the ai chat header button to be missing for you.

Checked it in firefox, it's missing there too for me.

Thanks for sharing test thread via DM! Found the issue and solved it. Let me know if you're still having any problems. The problem was only happening with characters that had custom code, which was the reason I was missing it in my tests. Thanks again for your patience and going to the effort of DMing me an example! Makes bug-finding 100x easier.

Omfg I love you! (I had thought about the custom code as a variable but thought surely changing avatar size was benign.)

I did notice in the last few minutes before I checked here that it seemed to be working a little better. Thanks so much!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Lol, well I figured out what was happening to the header button. I had the desktop scaling to 175% (a recent change), setting it back to the recommended amount (150%) and reloading the tab restored the ai chat button at the top of the site. Weird.

Didn't fix the summaries, sadly. XD
