The 8B and 70B llama 3 models were released a few hours ago by Meta. Benchmarks look really promising, so this could be a great upgrade to all our chatbots!

The GGUF formats are just coming out, but seem to work in Faraday.dev if you want to try them out locally.

Meta released a base version as well as the instruct version. So far instruct seems to be a little too helpful to play a character, but I’m sure we’ll see finetunes shortly.

Hey guys I am a grad student at the communication science department at University of Vienna and I am conducting a survey on character(dot)ai.

• Your subreddit seems knowledgeable in the field! If you have experience with character(dot)ai chatbots and are over the age of 14 i would welcome you to particpate!
• It is completly anonymus and takes 5 minutes.
• If you are interested i will provide you the survey link via DM.

Thank you so much and kind regards! -EP

I thought that it would be great to have ads on chatbots but I’ve never seen this before.

What do you guys think of it?

Hello!

I have a quick question; do you guys know how I could connect a chatbot (which I would put on a hotel’s website) with a hotel management software (for example CloudBeds or BetterHotel)?

The primary function of the chatbot would be to make reservations, and my idea is that the reservation info and data would be sent directly to the hotel management software which would store it in it’s built in calendar, so the hotel owners and managers have an easy overview of all the bookings.

I was thinkig of using Voiceflow for the chatbot’s creation, but I’m open to recommendations.
