i would honestly like to see a chatbot like C.AI with internet integration or something that uses the web yo search for stuff when needed or asked to do so to “refresh its memory”

I don’t want an AI girlfriend, neither am I interested in role-playing. I want to bring up topics and ask questions using explicit language, I would like as well for the chatbot to collaborate in creating some exotic stories. Is there such a chatbot?

Seeing as character ai is shit now, and janitor’s JLLM has been funny, and ive got no money for proxy, i’m thinking the near future may call for a bot replacement. Does anyone know of a chatbot service with some specific things?

– Free to use (without limitations on chat/time ect)

-preferably without filter

-unlimited personas

-an extensive bredth for bot personality (not limited to like 500 characters or the like)

These were all things char.ai and j.ai had once upon a time, so :/

Thank you for helping me out 😭

Is there a hack or prompt configuration to activate any NSFW mode in Cici?

I’ve been using ai chatbots to help me with studying by giving it my textbook pages and lecture slides and then having it teach it back to me. For the past year or 2, I’ve had a Perplexity Education Pro license that I’ve been using without issues and have been able to give it dozens of files without limiting me. But now, I’ve noticed that it’s been limiting my file uploads a lot sooner and makes it borderline impossible to use it the way I usually do. Are there any alternatives chatbots that offer a high file upload limit at reasonable-ish price? I’m willing to pay $30 a month at the very most. What do you guys think would be my best option?

The AI doesn’t need to be the most accurate model with the craziest reasoning skills, but it needs to be able to accurately analyze documents and teach them back to me.

I’ve seen a lot of people mention that “long-term memory” is one of the most important features in AI roleplay or chatbot experiences, but I feel like it can mean very different things depending on the person.

So I’m curious from a user perspective – what does “good” long-term memory actually look like for you?

Some things I’m wondering about:

• Do you expect the AI to remember everything, or just the important parts?
• What counts as “important” (relationships, personality, past events, preferences, etc.)?
• After how many turns should it still remember things? 50? 100? Unlimited?
• Is it better for memory to be selective and consistent, or detailed but sometimes messy?
• What kind of memory mistakes break immersion the most for you?

Also, if you’ve ever used a bot that felt like it had genuinely good memory, what did it do differently?

I’m trying to understand this more from actual user experience rather than just a technical definition.

been going down a rabbit hole with lorebooks lately (mostly from the SillyTavern side) and a thought hit me. the core mechanic is basically dynamic context injection based on keyword triggers, which is. kind of what you’d want for brand consistency across a content pipeline? like instead of cramming your brand voice guide, product details, and audience personas into every single, prompt, you structure them as lorebook entries and let the model pull what’s relevant per piece. the obvious gap is that tools like NovelAI are built entirely around fiction and have zero native marketing workflows. no scheduling, no CRM hooks, nothing. so you’d basically be hacking something together manually or trying to replicate the pattern in LangChain or a custom RAG setup. not impossible but heaps more work than just using Copy.ai or Jasper with a decent brand voice setup. has anyone here actually tried building something like this for real content workflows, or does the, token bloat and setup complexity make it not worth it compared to just using purpose-built tools?

been thinking about this a lot lately. lorebooks do a solid job keeping things consistent inside a single chat, keyword triggers inject the right context at the right time without bloating the whole prompt upfront. for RP and character work that’s genuinely useful. but the moment you try to scale it across multiple separate conversations, things get messier. most platforms only let you bind one lorebook per chat, so you end up juggling global books or doing workarounds that feel a bit clunky. the token limits are also worth thinking about. something like 740 tokens on a free tier isn’t a lot to work with if your lore is even slightly complex. and because triggers only activate on the last few messages, anything that isn’t referenced recently just. doesn’t show up. so for multi-session setups where context resets between chats, you’re basically starting fresh each time unless you build something custom around it. some people in the SillyTavern community are pushing for AI-driven dynamic states and better multi-lorebook support for group chats, which sounds promising but isn’t really there yet. curious whether anyone’s actually made lorebooks work well for something more structured, like a support bot or internal knowledge tool, rather than just RP. or if you hit the same limitations and ended up going with a vector DB approach instead.

been digging into lorebooks lately mostly from the SillyTavern side of things, but the pattern itself got me thinking. the core mechanic is pretty interesting, you’re basically doing lightweight RAG by triggering context chunks based on keywords or recency instead of stuffing everything into the prompt upfront. for character consistency in RP it clearly works. but I keep wondering how well that transfers to something like a customer support bot or an internal knowledge assistant. like instead of spinning up a full vector DB pipeline, could you just structure, your domain knowledge as lorebook-style entries and let the model pull what’s relevant per query? reckon there’s something there for smaller teams that don’t have the infra for proper RAG. anyone actually tried this outside of chatbot/RP contexts? curious if the maintenance overhead makes it not worth it at scale.
