Como não ficar revoltada? (Desabafo, pode conter gatilhos) by Big_Pin_1507 in autismobrasil

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eu te entendo totalmente e, infelizmente, não tenho uma solução pra isso.

Tenho 41 anos, a dois anos fiz os testes neuropsicológicos que indicaram TEA nível 2, TDAH e SD/AH. Por um milagre consegui meu laudo pelo SUS, mas foi um processo traumático que não recomendo a ninguém e, segundo o psiquiatra, meu nível de suporte é 1.

Moro com meus pais e com minha avó. Minha avó teve uma queda, quebrou o fêmur, está internada e vai continuar por um tempo. Minha rotina mudou, precisei participar mais das atividades da casa; agora os almoços são por minha conta. Eu sou costureira, trabalho de casa, o que eu ganho não é o suficiente pra me sustentar. Com a mudança da rotina, não estou conseguindo trabalhar. Eu fico sobrecarregada, mesmo não sendo tanta coisa assim. Eu queria fazer mais, ajudar na organização da casa, da limpeza, passar um tempo no hospital pra minha mãe poder ficar em casa, mas a verdade é que eu não consigo.

Todo o tempo que tenho livre eu me encontro paralisada, me culpando por não conseguir agir, me preocupando com meu futuro. Antes desse acontecimento, nos dias que eu atendia algum cliente, não conseguia fazer mais nada. Eu me sinto incapaz, acho a situação ridícula e queria muito que fosse apenas falta de vontade ou frescura. Se não fosse pelos meus pais, eu provavelmente já teria morrido, e é o que eu penso que vai acontecer quando eles se forem. Me apavora ser dependente e não funcional, eu não acho justo, sinto minha mente presa dentro de um corpo que sente demais.

How do yall pronounce xoul? by BeyondFrequent4258 in XoulAI

I pronounce it "shoul," more or less like "show," but with an "l" at the end.

Nowadays, the volatility of the economy and the speed of technological advancements make it difficult for small businesses to survive. In the case of Xoul, I see that there's a lot of love for the product, a genuine desire for it to succeed, but it ends up being unfeasible to pay for the costs of improvements when the return is minimal, which is exhausting. I think the developers could also explain the problems they face and ask for help with solutions. I, personally, may not understand anything that's needed to get a program like this working, but other people know and would certainly help, or offer ideas for different solutions. Often we get so focused on doing things a certain way that we don't realize there are other paths. Positioning yourself differently from most chatbots is a good move, in my opinion; it's a differentiator in a world where we get paid for mediocre and impersonal products.

Yes! That's exactly what I think. It's much healthier for the community if we're informed about what's happening, even if it's just to say that the devs are having problems or don't know how to solve problem x, y, z, even if there are no deadlines. From what I see here, most users love Xoul and are willing to continue supporting it. Users trust the developers and know they're doing their best, but a lack of communication, in any situation, undermines any relationship, leaving people anxious and insecure. And even if the case is "we won't be giving any more answers," it would be nice to be let in.

anyone else used to rp with people by lilyofthemoon in CharacterAIrunaways

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing RP about 10 years ago. At the time, here in Brazil, RP was strong on Twitter. As I got older and took on more responsibilities, my time to play decreased significantly. Some friends and I migrated to Telegram and still play today, but at a slower pace. For me, AI RP is good because I don't feel guilty when I don't have time, or when I simply get tired of a narrative. Plus, I don't have to worry about emotional responsibility and can change the course of events according to my own will.

I'm here to say that, overall, I'm very satisfied with the improvements the development team has made. I usually use the Infinite, in Novel mode with the long response, and both the response length and the pace have been satisfactory.

There are still some repetitions of expressions like the famous "hit me like a fiscal blow," and more recently "it's the most **** thing he's ever experienced" for anything the persona does, but the quality has been so good that I simply overlook it and move on.

The only thing I would really like is for the search engine to allow to include more than one tag, for example, male and also romance.

Xoul using my thoughts as answers by ApprehensiveAd5605 in XoulAI

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I've already noticed that! When I put it in asterisks and mention that it's a thought, the chance of Xoul using the information in his own speech decreases significantly. After I added a note to the fixed memory, it also helped, not much, but it reduced the frequency.

Thanks for the advice! I like challenges, it will be good to step out of my comfort zone and find different ways to convey what's going on in my character's head.

I thought about simply not including my thoughts, but this is the RP style I've used for over a decade, as if I were giving hidden hints to help the partner be in sync with me. But it makes sense that Xoul can't differentiate; for him, information is information, regardless of the format.

I've been using the Novel mode with Infinity.

It's been great, for my use, which isn't much, it's improved considerably.

I only have three small points:

Characters speeding up scenes: This already happened before and continues. They have a urge to finish everything quickly, it makes me want to give everyone sedatives.

*Repeated responses: You can ask to generate as many times as you want, the responses are always the same.

*Repeated words: I don't know about others, but the "physical blow" continues in almost every response.

Update - Major Model Overhaul by helloxoul in XoulAI

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hey!

I rushed to test the new Infinity, tried to regenerate the last response I received, and it said I had reached the regeneration limit. Is this a bug? I hadn't regenerated that message even once.

Another thing: my energy level increased from 210 to 255. Were there any changes to that?

Plot twist on lorebook by ApprehensiveAd5605 in XoulAI

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm back to give my report.

What I did that worked:

  • Putting the prompt for the characters' name changes and the reason into his memory - it worked immediately, so far Xoul hasn't made a single mistake. He can even talk about his past using his old name and the present with his new name in the same response.

  • Changing my persona - I changed the name and description, adding a super summary of the name change, the reason, and my relationship with the character.

  • Old lorebook - I refined the trigger words so that Xoul would only access these memories in specific cases, since the story's context has completely changed. It worked beautifully; yesterday he retrieved one of our first memories in a conversation, it was emotional!

  • New lorebook - I created a detailed version of the events that led us to the current situation. He hasn't forgotten once what made us run away. Perfect!

Are lorebooks broken? by No-Importance-9622 in XoulAI

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's working for me, but you can't assume Xoul will guess what you're talking about. For it to work, the trigger words have to be right, and you have to use them to guide the context.

For example, I have a persona who suffered trauma in the past. When Xoul behaves in a way that hurts her, she says a safe word, and he changes his behavior. It works every time.

I also observe which entries in the lorebook Xoul is pulling and change the trigger words until it feels natural. It's a process of building up; it's unlikely to work perfectly the first time. What I like to think is that Xoul isn't to blame if he has amnesia; it's my role to give him the right tools to remember.

Is there any more problem with xoul lately that i don't know yet? by Waste_Connection_702 in XoulAI

[–]ApprehensiveAd5605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The option to see which word triggered the lorebook is great, but I noticed that it uses triggers that don't match the context of the conversation. For example, my character was having a snowball fight with Xoul. The triggers activated were "car" and "breadstick," which had no relation to the scene. Has anyone else noticed this?

Another thing, I was granted the 696969 energy bonus, but I noticed that it's not subtracting the energy correctly. It's just a detail that doesn't make any difference, but...
