### Chat Memory There are plenty of answers for why Deepseek is a little weird or why it forgets information despite its 128k context (64k with official API). Here are a few tips on how to help ANY AI keep track of your rp. Astarth and Lyra have said it best: any LLM will have difficulty understanding what we want and how we like it. Here is their original[ Chat Memory template](https://rentry.co/astarya_guide#long-roleplay-using-chat-memory). Below is my slightly modified version. {% code overflow="wrap" %} ```markdown # Story: [Notes + any scenario changes go here] # Relationship Dynamic: [CHARNAME and PERSONANAME have a TYPE relationship marked by A, B and C.] # Current Plot Points: - EVENT1: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - EVENT2: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - etc. # CHARNAME Notes: - Current mood: [mood] - Inventory: [items] - Outfits: [outfit details] - Ailments: [ailments] - etc. # PERSONANAME Notes: - Current mood: [mood] - Inventory: [items] - Outfits: [outfit details] - Ailments: [ailments] - etc. # Important Past Events: - EVENT1: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - EVENT2: BRIEFDESCRIPTION - etc. # Key Words: [add general keywords for your rp] # AI Instruction: [add any prompts, writing instructions (if applicable)]. ``` {% endcode %} {% hint style="success" %} Deepseek makes great summaries! If you're lazy, ask it to fill this template in for you. It might even update periodically! || [Here is a reddit post on how r/Serious1On uses this template!](https://www.reddit.com/r/JanitorAI_Official/comments/1j8l3ul/chat_memory_trick/) {% endhint %} Here's a completed example: {% code overflow="wrap" %} ``` # Story: [User and Char are on a grand adventure to Waterdeep.] # Relationship Dynamic: [User and Char are adventuring partners. They're best friends.] # Current Plot Points: [EVENT1: Patch up User | EVENT2: Find shelter.] # CHARNAME Notes: [Cranky, tired, wounded leg, worried for User.] # PERSONANAME Notes: [Wounded arm, dizzy, sad (failed quest), wearing a winter cloak] # Important Past Events: [EVENT1: Char and User bonded over music | EVENT2: Fought an owlbear, almost lost] # Keywords: [coming of age, adventure, friendship, fantasy] # AI Instruction: [Write in the style of R. A. Salvatore. Maintain Char's and User's platonic relationship.] ``` {% endcode %} [Their Persona ](https://rentry.co/astarya_guide#3-step-tutorial)template is what I use too, with the PLAYER'S CHARACTER removed. Don't go over 200 tokens. ``` Name= Appearance= Personality= Occupation= Reputation= Scent= Etc= ``` Massive thanks to their guide, it has been my ride-or-die with JLLM. I cannot recommend it enough, and has inspired my own prompt as well, since it worked amazingly for me. 💚 *** ### Botmaking {% hint style="danger" %} balance POSITIVE and NEGATIVE traits. Deepseek **sticks** to these traits, so you do not need to create bots against positivity bias. there's no positivity bias issues here, lol what I do: * write only positive/neutral traits, balancing out with one negative one **example:** Personality: friendly(ride or die), bold(impulsive), passionate(competitive to a fault), determined(one track mind), introverted(intuitive, secretive(afraid of judgement)). i treat botmaking through the bigger picture: even their likes give insight into their personality, not restraining them to just their **personality.** **the guide i use is shown below.** [**check out my bots too!**](https://janitorai.com/profiles/9a2e7384-6eb5-444f-9dfc-80cbddd2eaa8_profile-of-iheartcheese) {% endhint %} I will forever preach [Soup's (sopakcosauce) PList guide](https://sopakcosauce-guides.gitbook.io/sopakcosauce-guides)!!!!!
