How and why the memory manager works (Patreon)

To avoid any doubts, I will explain how the system works and why it achieves long-term memory.

The system provides you with a series of customizable text blocks for you to input information and memories.

That information is injected into the message input box every 4 messages, creating an automatic reminder for the bot to remember what is happening and the importance of your story or character. Therefore, it is ideal that during your role-playing session, you confirm what is happening and add new information to the memory manager to keep a record of the significant events that have occurred in the story.

You can save and load the set of memories in a file to continue the session at another time or to have a starting base (such as a detailed paragraph about the costume and description of your character).

Tips:

• If you load a memory file BEFORE writing to the bot for the first time (or after refreshing the page), the memories will be immediately injected when you start typing, reminding the bot of the current state.
• It is preferable not to introduce memories before they occur. This is important because if you do, the bot will interpret it as information you want to happen or general information, rather than as memories.
• In the extension options, there is a setting to test an alternative injection mode (via OOC, out of context), which can be more consistent and prevent the bot from reacting directly to that information. However, in this mode, the bot may be more prone to making small comments out of context.
• If you receive an out-of-place comment, swipe right! The AI model from character.ai is what it is and not perfect. Sometimes it says silly things, but generating a new response from the bot will provide an appropriate and coherent one based on the memories.
