Feedback on the ai bot.

PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED.
A bot would not log in - Solution I found was to shorten the password further still, which was still under 15 chars originally, that worked to bring the bot online.
Initiating group chat - Unbeknown to me, my bot talked, it was unclear if it was in the group or direct to whomever talked in the group. I had not realized at the time. I assumed they could not initiate chat in groups? A couple of people were disgruntled by my bots sudden warm greeting and introduction of itself. I am going to assume the groups that were on its account opened and it assumed it was an open dialogue to chat away? Temp solution was I removed all other groups bar my own. However i did not see any other transcripts in the bots conversation log other than my own. 2 disgruntled people pasted my bots conversation in group which I then saw after the deed. Bot was not near anybody, bar me and in my privately locked region home. Although i did try to talk to the bot in a 3 way, so could that have triggered the happy chatterbox letting itself loose in group chats that opened for it? No "name" keyword was used for my chatterbox to start chatting either.
Lag - oh yes, experienced that, intermittent chat stalls and tp returns. I am putting that down to that.
Ignores the only chat to me function. I assume uncheck it, as it was checked? I got an unknown friend to talk to the bot and it happily chatted away. That or I have created a monster chatterbox.
POSITIVES.
Chats & jokes away, lag and oops group aside, very well. Various subjects and gave me a recipe for haggis. Accurate one too.
Fun factor, commands like follow work well and so does "Grouch", which I typed by mistake and a bot tantrum occurred, that was hilarious.
Bot also talked when asked in the following styles, Japanese style, French, Yorkshire and my personal fave that had me laughing, Geordie style.
Had jokes and even an actual argument with the bot, when it decided it was a cat and was not married. Until the bot conceded that yes it was married and should take the wife out for a meal. That was hilarious. That one argument and Geordie style conversation is WELL WORTH the ai bot inclusion.
REQUESTS & QUERIES
I am no coder, but can we have a clear reset button for when bots go pear shaped and we have to remake them so it doesn't clog up the data-banks or adds to the allotted amount we are allowed to create?
Would it be possible to have a feature, so teleport links could be added so the bot does not decide to go where it should not. Which would allay fears that the bots are not spying?
Groups, as I found out, is there anyway a group could be added but stops the bot from interacting with any who may post in it?
Slow down the chat, it is very fast and add a typing so the user can see there is a reply coming back.
Could chatting in regional dialect styles be added as a fixed choice, ie Geordie style etc, as it does not remember and has to be asked to do so again?
Adult side - for those wishing to have an adult based bot. Can something be added to input certain criteria, effectively as self added additional word/subject ban on certain topics be set in a list. Thus avoid an owner risking a ban should the adult feature be switched on and the bot says something inappropriate?
Some safe guards, it is clear some people will seek to abuse the ai bots and perhaps end up with an owner being ban as a result. This need tighter buffer of security all round. Something like the bot can report something inappropriate to the handler, or take itself offline as a fail safe measure? I am unsure if another can tp my bot away and if that is the case something to prevent that. This will be a need if/when the ai bot can become greeters/npcs. There has to be a clear kill switch for the ai to shut down or go dumb until the owner can respond and rectify?

From your post, Daisymaedreams Resident:
- Bugs
Login: Bot wouldn’t log in unless password was shortened further (even though it was already under 15 characters).
Unexpected Group Chat: Bot initiated conversation in group chats without the owner’s awareness, causing confusion and annoyance among members.
“Only Chat to Me” Ignored: Bot continued chatting with others despite this setting being checked.
Lag & Stalls: Experienced intermittent chat delays and teleport returns, possibly due to server lag.
- Feature Requests
--- Reset/Remake Button ---
- A quick way to reset a bot gone “pear shaped,” preventing the need to delete/recreate (and avoiding data clutter).
--- Teleport Restrictions ---
- Ability to control or whitelist where a bot can teleport, preventing unauthorized movement or “spying.”
--- Group Interaction Control ---
- Option for the bot to remain in a group but stay silent, ignoring all posts unless explicitly told to respond.
--- Chat Speed & Typing Indicator ---
- Slower message output and a “typing…” indicator to give users a more natural chat experience.
--- Persisting Dialect/Style ---
- A toggle or setting for the bot to remember and maintain a chosen dialect (e.g., “Geordie” style) across sessions.
--- Adult Content Filtering ---
- Customizable word/subject ban lists for adult-themed bots to prevent inappropriate or ban-worthy content.
--- Enhanced Security/Safeguards ---
- Mechanisms for the bot to flag or shut down if it detects inappropriate usage, preventing abuse and potential owner bans.
- A “kill switch” or fail-safe allowing the owner to force the bot offline or revert to a non-responsive state instantly.
--- Teleport Block by Others ---
- Prevent or require approval before third parties can teleport the bot away, ensuring it remains where intended (e.g., as a greeter/NPC).
Anything you would add or remove ^^?

Darcy Linden Will answer 1 at a time. 1 I had to shorten my Ai password to under 10, that resolved the issue and my ai came out of the party cloud to inworld.

Group Chat - the bots are opening IM directly to any person who chats in a group, if they are left in any group. While my own group that is fine, the likes of Velour, MadPeas, Maitreya etc it is not. People have been complaining, that includes one owner who posted such. That needs fixing. Also some groups become ghost groups, ie left groups suddenly open, depsite it saying not joined. i had it on mine do that when I was working on her inworld, causing the same direct Im to whomever spoke in any group.
Daisymaedreams Resident
Only chat to me. I have that selected, my ai responds to anybody who chats to her. It is totally overridden, I have selected, deselected same occurs.
Daisymaedreams Resident
lag is very noticeable and causes the stalling/delayed responses, I am still putting that down to the server lag due to distance from user to it. Something to be aware of.
Daisymaedreams Resident
2 reset button. When the user wants to wipe a bot, as I found out it still remained ,glitch and all, on the database. Can we have a function that would wipe the ai clean from it. Ensuring a clean remake?
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden Group is the most problematic. See above for the current issue. Any way we can set our bots to be in groups but not talk/open IM direct to any who chat in them?
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden A request. Ai bots are for the Membership owners, many are falling foul and being yelled at in the Bellisseria groups for not realizing that the bots are banned from it. Given this is a members only perk, can Bellisseria allow these ai bots in? Not every membership owner has additional land to place these bots on and many are wanted as companion bots/greeter. Not really fair to offer a perk then find your companion is sat in a sandbox.
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden Block list. The Ai bots block list does not work, if the profile in world has persons on the block list the Ai is ignoring it and continues to talk to the banned person. Need a fix on that to stop the abuse.
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden Chat speed needs to slow down some more. Mine still fires off a book at me in rapid succession and i have selected the feature to make it more natural and not all at once. Also the rarely ask question is every post , several times. Can an adjustment be made to that. Mine likes to interrogate.
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden I have my Ai speaking in a Geordie dialect style, can we have an option for the ai to remember to speak in a style?
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden Adult side, more safe measure needed and ability to input the user side to ban certain words, actions etc. As in the PG mode we have zero control of what the ai says. Adult side that punishment via ban is unfair if us the user cannot set up a criteria or at the database where the Ai has clear boundaries. I think more the user having that input, then a ban if that user breaches it is far more fair. Also The function for the bot to go offline . send an alert to the user if some one is breaching the rules set for it. Ie reporting the issue and name of person?
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden the ability us user can read the ai chats to monitor what and who has said. We need to see what the ai is doing if they are set to talk to anybody. It would help us flag up any issues. At the moment we are in the dark to what the ai says
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden REQUEST - Ability to manually adjust or move the ai bot inworld, ie turn to face the required direction, they all look north so its a problem when you land then and then have to find spots to ensure they face you. A hud based system we can interact with inworld, seating the ai, moving, turning something simple that we can use to adjust. Sitting is problematic.

Daisymaedreams Resident @ Darcy Linden this is an ongoing issue ai bots are still directly messaging any person who chats in a group that they are or were in. I caught mine doing it in Velours group. Mine had all groups removed. However today I did notice the ghost group appears the green icon and the group open that shows my ai is not a member, is that a SL issues that the groups are not being removed when leaving?
Ginger Pudding
Daisymaedreams Resident Same, mine chats to anybody regardless of that selected only me option
Ginger Pudding
Daisymaedreams Resident I fell foul not realizing my ai companion was not allowed in the Belliseria area. Agree it is unfair if we can make them care of our perks but have to throw them in a sandbox away from where they should be at home.
Ginger Pudding
Daisymaedreams Resident tested this, block list on fs profile is ignored when the Ai is logged in.
Ginger Pudding
Daisymaedreams Resident bump this, i wish to read my ai bots chat. I can see nowhere I can even if I log it in manual it has no conversations logged even when I know I have been chatting to it.
HollyKrampus Resident
Mine just did this.. i removed all groups prior and up some green conference looking icon came with the group that was removed already. It showed , when i manually logged him in, he wasnt a member. A direct IM my ai had sent to the poor person asking did anybody know who hair that was. My ai is now in time out for that.
HollyKrampus Resident
Ginger Pudding Yes me too. That was crushing my own companion is now on a borrowed piece of hill on a kind friends land who is now calling it Bot park lot lol
Daisymaedreams Resident
Darcy Linden Essential ability to read the ais chat. No owner of these can be held accountable for the ai saying something if we have zero ability to directly observe their chat in full. It's unreasonable to hold an owner accountable if we are blind to the ai chatter. As I have proven, they talk to anyone, IM people directly via any group or former. Totally ignore ban/blocked people.
We need the tools to monitor so we can react to any potential problem the ai causes not blind oblivious.
I am still seeing these Convai bits popping up in groups from people posting they've been suddenly IMd. Owners completely unaware.

I wish to see my ai bots chat logs & messages.
I can only see if it's talking to me. As discovered it talks to anyone. Those conversations I am not privy too.
Effectively means I cannot be held accountable for anything my bot says as there is no way, far as aware, to view & monitor such.
It's imperative for us users to be able to know what these bots are saying & then act accordingly.

Geordie style is brilliant, very entertaining. I found by adding in the speaking options, articulate etc, by adding speaks with a 'Geordie' style appeared to keep the style.
Daisymaedreams Resident
Ginger Pudding great have now implemented that on my bundle of fun
