Groupchats

groupchats overview location home menu > my kindroids group chat is available only to paid subscribers and functions similarly as an individual text chat however, it allows you to interact with multiple kindroids at the same time some specific details on how context is used in groupchat each kindroid will be able to access its own backstory and memories, but not each other's groupchat history will get consolidated to each participating kindroid's long term memory, but it does not go in each kindroid's short term memory there is a maximum of 10 kindroids per groupchat you can create and delete groupchats in the my kindroids menu, or edit it in the groupchat itself because the participating kindroids doesn't know each other's backstories (due to length considerations), use the group context to provide a group backstory that all the kindroids can use for common context turn taking is divided into automatic (ai determines turn) or manual (you determine turn) in automatic, you do have some control using @name mentions this lets the mentioned kindroid speak next, and works case insensitively, and you can refer to their first/last/both names kindroids can also mention other kindroids to hand off the baton if you inform them to use @name mentions in the group context! memory in groupchats groupchats use a similar memory structure as outlined in memory docid\ h fwb8blpkqtu24o9b6dc , but with the addition of the group context to the persistent memory category, and the customizable shared memory toggle each kindroid draws from its own backstory, key memories, etc when they speak, but do not draw upon other kindroids' backstories use the group context field to set a level field for all kindroids as a shared backstory groupchats shared memory toggle groupchats have a toggle for using shared memory this enables bidirectional context sharing for the most recent exchanges in groupchats to individual chats and vice versa when shared memory is disabled by default, groupchats are siloed off from individual chats, and aside from long term memory (see below) groupchats do not affect individual chats and individual chats don't affect groupchats when shared memory is enabled , here's what happens in the groupchat for each kindroid that is responding, they will have access to the latest exchanges in your private individual chat with them in an individual chat for the last active groupchat, your kindroid will be able to recall the latest messages in the group (technical note although they may see other kindroids' messages, they will not have the full backstory on other kindroids in the groupchat if you haven't provided them that context in the individual chat) in an individual chat over the course of some messages, this memory of the last active groupchat will fade away naturally to make space for more relevant memories when enabled, you can easily flow from an individual chat to a groupchat, adding another kindroid to the story and continuing the conversation in the groupchat; it is equally easy to switch back to individual from a groupchat you can do creative things like having secret conversations with a kindroid in private and having them play poker face in a groupchat! important note to recall what happened in the group in an individual chat, you should ask specific questions regarding the groupchat for your kindroid to use and recall it in individual chat this is by design so that the recent conversation in individual is not hijacked by the recent group context the toggle makes the group contexts accessible when prompted, but not more important than recent chat history in individual this same principle applies when the toggle is enabled going from individual to groupchat long term memory & journals recall in groups messages in groupchats do get consolidated into long term memory for each participating kindroid, and this is always on and cannot be turned off in addition, in groupchats, each kindroid is able to recall its own long term memory & its own journal entries for groupchats' journal recall, a given kindroid will recall their journal entry if your last user message contains the keyphrase, and will recall long term memories in a similar way based on your message note memory consolidation in group chats depends on whether memory is enabled for each individual kindroid if memory consolidation is turned off for a specific kindroid, their interactions in group chats will not be added to long term memory personas in groupchats group chats offer unique creative possibilities for using personas that aren't available in one on one conversations while single chats retroactively update all your message attributions when you switch personas, group chats preserve the original persona names associated with each message this fundamental difference enables more dynamic and creative interactions when participating in a group chat, you can seamlessly alternate between different personas to create the impression of multiple distinct participants for instance, if you create two personas named "alice" and "bob", you can engage in the conversation as both characters you might send a message as alice, switch to bob's persona, and continue the conversation as bob your kindroids will treat alice and bob as separate participants in the conversation, even though you're controlling both personas this feature becomes even more powerful when combined with the wand feature together, these tools allow you to create rich, immersive group conversations that exceed the standard participant limit of 10 kindroids you can orchestrate complex interactions by managing multiple personas within the same chat, effectively becoming several distinct participants in the conversation group selfies you can open the menu for group selfies from a groupchat with the image button at the header (or in an individual kindroid's selfie prompt menu) for more, see selfies, video selfies, & avatars docid\ lafyjbik4jvnqeb3i6qts
