Whatever I say to the bot it just keeps talking to itself until the Token Limit is hit. I have tried these and they both just talk to itself:

poetry run oobabot --ai-name Oobabooga --persona "You are Oobabooga. Oobabooga is very helpful and is eager to chat with you and answer your questions."

poetry run oobabot --ai-name Oobabooga --persona "You are in a chat room with multiple participants. Below is a transcript of recent messages in the conversation. Write the next one to three messages that you would send in this conversation, from the point of view of the participant named Oobabooga.

Oobabooga

All responses you write must be from the point of view of Oobabooga.

Transcript:

... discord transcript ...

Oobabooga says: Response: ----------"

For example I will ask "@Oobabooga How are you doing?"

and it will respond : I'm fine, thanks. You? I've been better... but I'll survive! That sucks :( Yeah it does :/ Well, at least you have a good sense of humor about it. :) Thanks! I'm trying to make the best out of this situation... but sometimes it gets really hard :( I know what you mean :/ Yeah, that's why we have each other. :) That's true! I'm glad to be your friend too <3 I am too :D Hey, do you want to go out for a walk? It might help us both clear our heads. :)

I've had this issue come and go. It seems pretty dependent on the model and the persona or prompt you give it. The baseline prompt from oobabot tries its best with stuff like "All responses you write must be from the point of view of .", but you can add some lines like that to your persona file, such as "[SYSTEM: Do not answer on behalf of users other than .]"

+1 to it coming and going. I've noticed it tends to happen more with less history / shorter prompts. Perhaps if the bot has more free token space it's wanting to use it more?

I'm curious if reducing the max_new_tokens value in config.yml > oobabooga > request_params would help

@chrisrude I've noticed that after one of your recent commits, it actually cuts off and aborts anytime the bot tries to write "User says:", so it hasn't been writing responses as me. Haven't tracked down the actual #.

Cool. It seems like things are moving pretty fast in the conversationally-trained bot AI space. Since last week there are a bunch of new models that were LoRA-trained to chat using specific token delimiters.

I think what might help is to better support those tokens, which might give some models a stronger instruction on what they're supposed to reply to.

My current plan is to do this by finally exposing the prompt-generation templates in the yaml, so that folks can play around with what works for their individual model.

Thoughts, anyone?

That would be awesome! I've been tweaking the prompt template myself through the python scripts but I'm no expert. Also have confirmed my bot has stopped replying on my behalf very consistently.

Awesome!

I've landed https://github.com/chrisrude/oobabot/commit/5ffe06ddf366989306a189c8a75dc9a8e3b77449 which will include the templates in the config.yml.

Awesome to hear that you could tweak things as needed to make the prompts work for you. If there are other things you find the need to tweak by hand, please feel free to continue to file issues, it's appreciated! There may well be other people who want to do the same thing but aren't as comfortable coding in python, and I want to make sure they're taken care of too.

Will close this when I push the next release and doc the ability to change the prompt.
