Spontaneous Responses

I am having trouble having the avatar do consistent spontaneous responses. It is suppose to do a spontaneous response if {{user}} does not reply within 5 seconds, but it is very inconsistent, sometimes going 30 seconds. I am using gemini 1.5.

Hello @Anonymous7,

Welcome to the Convai Developer Forum!

To better understand the issue, could you please share a screen recording and your console logs? This will help us identify what might be causing the inconsistency with the spontaneous responses.

I do not know how to find the console logs, but I got this from Memory. This is when it is in NOT spontaneous response mode, there was nothing in memory for when it was doing spontaneous responses. The Character Description was written by me to specialize to do spontaneous responses so it could just concentrate on that, but it does it on other characters also, but without writing in Character Description the way it normally behaves is after about 45 seconds it says “Where are you.” With a bot written in Character Description it sometimes goes every 5 seconds. So sometimes it works fine, sometimes it does not. My goal is to have personal trainer, yoga, Socratic teaching, etc. characters that should not have to wait for a user response.

@K3 is this a feature? I don’t find its documentation and I’d be interested in this

This is not a supported use case. You would need to implement an algorithm on the engine side to enable it to respond in this way.

Spontaneous response is a GREAT feature, but it is not consistent. It works in gemini 1.5, I do not know about the other AI. I got it working perfectly, then I logged out and the next day I could not get it to do it, then later that day it worked, but totally inconsistent. Opens up all sorts of uses, such as personal training. It gives control of the conversation to the bot.

When you mean “YOU would need to implement an algorithm on the engine side”, do you mean “YOU” as in specifically ME, or “YOU” as in “ONE would do”? In other words, is there a way I could reach into the engine side of the AI generator? Likely there is probably a timer engine side to set off the spontaneous responses that is connected to a random function, with the random function interfering with me trying to get the spontaneous responses to output at a consistent interval.

I mean you specifically. Could you let us know which platform you’re working on?

I use the Convai character core description.

Yes, unfortunately you cannot do this kind of customization on convai.com. You can do it on the game engine side.
