Recently, GPT released its end-of-year recap reports, and it got me thinking. Sometimes you can tell a piece of text is generated by GPT—hyphens are one clue (though definitely not the only one). What are some other signs?

I haven’t tried many, only a couple that I got advertised over on the NHentai website. I forget the name of the one I used to use, been so long, but I’ve been using SpicyChat, and it was fun, but now it requires ID for the bots set as NSFW. You can still do nsfw things with other bots, but it’s hard to find fun scenarios now. I wish I could remember the other one I used, but oh well.

There are too many wrappers popping up that are nothing but ChatGPT with a prompt injection. If you are shopping around, here are the 3 features you should rate ahead of anything else (based on my testing with MDC and generic bots):

1. Long-term Memory (Vector Storage): If the bot forgets who you are after 20 messages, it’s trash.

2. Persona Control: You need to be able to edit the hidden definition. If I can’t tweak the “temperature” or personality traits, I get bored.

3. Unfiltered Image Gen: A lot of sites promise this but give you weird, distorted limbs. The visual consistency needs to match the chat.

Stop paying for sites that don’t have those basics. And since we’re here, might as well just suggest 5 that hit the mark + stuff you might not like about each of them

• Kindroid: Probably the smartest “voice” model out there. The selfies are cool, but the art style is very specific. If you don’t like their “look,” you’re stuck with it. Also, the chat can get repetitive if you don’t reroll constantly.

• My Dream Companion: Currently using this for the image consistency (the character actually looks the same in every shot), but the onboarding pissed me off because of its strict ID verification. Excellent tech, but the UX feels like it doesn’t match up.

• Nomi AI: Great memory. It remembers small details. The downside is the visuals are way less customizable than MDC or Candy. You can’t really “build” a look from scratch as easily.

• Candy AI: Good for a “gamified” experience, but the chat feels less organic than Nomi or MDC. It sometimes feels like you are hitting pre-written scripts rather than talking to an AI.

• Backyard AI (Local): If you have a powerful PC, just run this. It’s free and private. But if you don’t have an RTX 3090 or better, it’s slow as hell and not worth the effort.

Bottom line: Go Nomi if you care purely about text/memory, go Local if you have the hardware, or go MDC if you want the visuals but don’t have issues with tight verification. https://www.mydreamcompanion.com/

Dunno if it’s spam, in case feel free to delete this post but, in the last months, I’ve been searching exactly for what this one has to offer. I’m having a blast with Friends and Fables, not yet subscribed. Basically, it’s designed for D&D campaigns so why am I posting this here? First: it’s flexible. You can create your own world, rules, points of interest, characters and you can make all ai-generative. Via chat, you can navigate the map and towards the points of interest, you can have characters with you (or not) and the AI will recall informations coherently, regarding places and events. Characters can move as well, interact with eachother, create memories regarding you or themselves, increase or decrease friendship and so on and it’s COOL.

Sure, based of D&D you’ll have the character sheet with statistics and such but you don’t have to include D&D rules or classes or magic or whatever. You don’t even have to fight (you can switch from adventure mode to storytelling mode). You can just use it to create your own world and do whatever you want: you can create a realistic city based on real world, you can create Game of Thrones’ world, whatever you want. It’s flexible, sharp, assistive and has a lot of potential!

im tryna switch ais. I want it to have good memory, not repetitive, and doesn’t jump to nsfw. I’m looking for just entertainment and not nsfw. thanks in advance.

I sometimes or occasionally experience this problem when using Dola (formely Cici AI). This is specially present in custom chatbots that even if the questions are in English, it will respond in any foreign language other than English like Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French, etc. Initially, it will give English responses, but eventually after a very long time, there is a chance that it will switch to any other languages. However, it will switch to English again if I change the topic. Have you ever encountered the same problem? And what can I do?
