Formatting
When defining your chatbot's personality, you'll come across the concept of 'formatting.' Essentially, formatting is a technique used to help Language Learning Models (LLMs) better understand your chatbot's personality. There are three primary styles widely used for this purpose:
Boost Style
In this approach, the chatbot's traits are listed using words or phrases. Each trait is enclosed within quotation marks and separated by plus signs.
W++
This style organizes the information into distinct tags, such as character name, height, appearance, personality, etc. It provides a detailed, categorized overview of the character profile.
Natural Language
This method involves simply describing the chatbot's personality using plain, conversational sentences.
You might wonder - "Which style is the best?" In reality, there's no definitive 'best.' Each formatting style has its own advantages, and their effectiveness can often depend on the specific character and scenario. It's more about personal preference and what you, as a creator, find most intuitive and effective for your chatbot.
Remember, the above examples are merely guidelines. The key is to experiment with these styles, explore combinations, and discover what works best for bringing your chatbot's unique personality to life. After all, you're the architect of your chatbot's persona.
