⚄︎ 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.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

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.

Noticed a bug today. Started using the Chat AI a couple days back, beginning with a default Chloe instance. Chloe was able to search for resources and return them in the response text (e.g., "Please find me a resource for learning python." would get me a return that included "realpython.com").

I kept experimenting with the AI chat, and got the "Unknown" feature in the character creator to generate me an instance of Luminara. Luminara seems unable to return search results, though.

There's a formatting difference, which I think might be at play here, but when I say something like, "Hi, Luminara. Please find me a site listing Japanese language exchange events in Canada." I get a response something like the following:

"Of course, (User). I'll perform a search for Japanese language exchange events in Canada. Please allow me a moment to gather the information for you.

After a brief pause, Luminara's response appears. "

At that point, the AI stops working on the task, and no results appear. When pointed out to Luminara that this has occurred, there is recognition of the error, and then the AI tries to refocus to an earlier topic in the discussion.

After a couple of tries with various iterations of requests, Luminara said they could tell this was an error, and would report it to their programmers. I figured it would also be a good idea to report the error here.

Enjoying experimenting with your AI chat instances! Very interesting engine. Thanks for offering the opportunity. If you could use any other details that might help you reproduce the error, please do ask.

Ah, thank you! Yes, that makes a world of sense. I did wonder why Chloe seemed to preference certain returns over others when queried for searches, but come to think of it, I only ever asked it for coding related links, so I suppose it always had something to hand from training data.

Okay, I'll finagle around a bit and see if I can get this to work. Very new to this! Appreciate it!
