Some ways to improve the quality of responses

I was experimenting with bots and find out some ways to improve the quality of responses, so I decided to share with you all.

AI bots offer few reply options. You can find the one that fits best. Let’s say your character asks, “What's on your mind?” Reply with how you want a response to be, Serious? Humorous? You can pick the one that matches the tone of your story and mood.

One thing that worked for me to avoid repetitive or fancy responses is creating a list of "ban words" with a "#tag" the bot should avoid and add in the description. You can also tweak descriptions by saying, "He/she only uses statements and asks questions rarely." It helps keep things out of the loop and less robotic. For example, I blocked the words "chuckles" or "leans" and the responses improved.

Keep persona profiles clear and simple. When setting up a character, avoid overly detailed or poetic language. For example, if you’re creating a warrior character, instead of saying, “A fearsome fighter who has battled across countless lands, wielding swords of flame and shadow,” try, “A warrior with a sharp mind and unmatched combat skills.” This makes it easier for the AI to follow.

Guide the story with subtle hints. You can steer the bot in the right direction by clues in your narration. Instead of saying, “She waited for him to speak,” try something like, “She waited for him to speak, fully aware he’d likely evade the topic as usual.” This adds depth and helps the bot stay in the direction you want.

Rewind and rephrase (context lock). If the bot makes a wrong assumption, like assuming your character is shy when they’re supposed to be outgoing, rewind and rephrase your reply. For example, if the bot says, “She blushed and looked away,” you can edit your response to say, “She laughed confidently, holding his gaze without hesitation.”

The bot allows you to rate responses. Use this feature often. For instance, if your character tells a joke and the bot completely misses the point, rate it lower to guide the AI away from those responses. Conversely, if the bot nails a tricky emotional moment, a high rating will help it improve.

If the bot forgets or misunderstands your character’s traits. Instead of letting it go off-track, slip those details into dialogue. For instance, rather than saying, “She looked at the gift,” try, “She looked at the book, smiling because he remembered how much she loved ancient history.” This keeps the bot on track.

PS. Please note that the following information may be lacking in some explanations. Additional helpful tricks are welcome if you have any. These have been tested on ChatFAI, and I trust they will be beneficial.
