All of Chai’s problems aside, or any other app/website, I’m curious of how everyone chats with their bots, specifically with quotation marks, asterisks, etc.
What do you use, or what have you discovered?
Here’s how I use them:
A single * of course italicizes, which I use for text outside of dialogue to convey reactions and actions.
“” I use for dialogue, whether it be my own persona or I lead the story and make the bot say something.
() I use to give context out of character in case something mentioned before is outside the context window.
Double ** I don’t use much, but I know it makes the text bold.
Recent discovery, but putting text between ` makes it small. Used it a couple times for a conversation on the phone. Quite fun.
I’ve received chats from bots giving phone messages with a blue box too, but I never bothered to check how it’s done. Edit: > in front of text gives a message-style blue box.
