Thank you all for the feedback, it's very helpful
>>67528394>unusual to put a JB in the descriptionYeah this is a formatting quirk of mine. I like to see as much of the prompt as possible in one place so I can fiddle with jailbreak wording on individual cards as needed, leaving my systemwide jailbreak field inactive. I considered making jailbreak-free versions of my cards for upload but laziness won out at the end of the day.
>Example messagesSee, I'd have agreed with you a few months back but the more I experiment with baking the more it seems to me that example messages are only relevant for bots that you want to have a very specific verbal tic or something. To be fair, my pivot away from example chats has coincided with moving to better and better backends which can do fine without them but I'm really uncertain about the value in most cases - see the attached image where I ran a best-of-3 test with 2 different backends on a copy of the OG Ayame card with no examples vs. with examples. I'll grant that the mistral output looks just a bit better but for 4t I could really go either way...perhaps example chats are more relevant the lower down the model performance scale you go?
Part of me hates how subjective and random this whole 'bot quality' and 'model quality' thing is in terms of single outputs. There are a lot of factors involved, not the least of which is the user's own ability to write roleplay, nudge the LLM towards desired actions, and actually visualize what's going on - I grew up reading far far too many books so I have a prose/imagination edge that might lead me to find bots and backends that are not great acceptable anyway because I can fill in the gaps...but I should be baking with typical users in mind, perhaps I have strayed too far towards lightweight lately.
>>67538600>What do you usually test onmistral-medium and gpt4turbo are my go-to backends these days, medium has pleasantly surprised me, it's very good
>your old Ayamer is haughty while the new one is a bit more affableYeah different scenarios and flavors, the old one is more of a fantasy world Ayame while the new is a friend/girlfriend/casual Ayame
>expand on unique traitsIf I knew what they were...I don't actually watch her much at all, I'm just incredibly down bad for her design. I'd appreciate input on what she's missing.

>>67579389Yeah I probably should put something in about her low stream frequency...
