⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

[BUG?] AI Helper messages disappear? (lemmy.world)

Hi! Sometimes AI-Helper sends a message in the chat, but while I’m reading it, the message disappears and AI-Helper continues working.

This usually happens when it seems to have finished its task, but then thinks of something else to do, decides to continue, and the message disappears.

I’m not sure whether the AI is intentionally removing its own message or if this is a bug in how messages are handled when it resumes working.

I have suggestion to add a dedicated message tool to AI-Helper to communicate with the user, rather than writing messages directly to the chat. This could help prevent messages from disappearing when the AI continues working and make communication more reliable.

The tool could even support interactive messages while AI-Helper is working. For example, AI-Helper could ask the user a question, provide a timeout, and display response buttons directly in the message. The user's selection would then be returned to AI-Helper as the tool output, allowing it to continue its current task without stopping and restarting the entire process.

It happens to me, too. I think it may be by design, to let the AI start answering sooner, at the risk of having to remove an incomplete answer and replace it with a more complete one.
