Sorry, last question on this: so if I want to deliver a better, more nuanced prompt to the LLM, Iām using āsystem.taggingā and not āprompt.tagā, correct?

You are best to change `prompt.tag` imho, but feel free to experiment.
Results with these prompts were so good from the get-go (with GPT 4) Iāve not really focussed or experimented much.
`system.tagging` might help you modify the āstyleā or ācharacterā of the response (e.g. humorous or theatrical)

Iāve been meaning to add this for a while, but the results from the Completions-based auto-tagging system were just too good to make it a priority.
But this morning I added auto-tagging based on Embeddings classification as an option:

There are various new settings, have a good look š

Heads up, about 5 hours ago my site became inoperable due to a 500 error again. I had made no changes, using GPT 4. Could be that @RGJ pushed an update (but unlikely, since I didnāt see a note). Turned off the plugin, and the error resolved.

Iām not seeing any issues at present.
Could you please share the corresponding logged error and confirm the version of the plugin you have installed?

Only AI-related 500 error what I get, started yesterday, is (or was, I have not examined further yet) automatic alt. Why I didnāt start digging it deeper? Because error 500 comes really often from OpenAI.

It seems like the plugin on your site regressed to an older version somehow.š
@ncaming215 My apologies, this is most likely our fault. Iāve put it back on 0.2.2 now and going to find out what went wrong. For now @merefield no need to worry.

Delighted to pass on this announcement from Open AI and confirm that AI Topic Summary options have been updated:

[https://github.com/merefield/discourse-chatbot/pull/113](https://github.com/merefield/discourse-chatbot/pull/113)
This is a big deal for AI Topic Summary, because this new model has:
- 128k context (so can summarise lots of Posts!)
- is 60% cheaper than the cost of GPT 3.5 Turbo!
Enjoy!

Whoooops ā¦ there was some missing code I had forgotten to check in.
This is now resolved and Iāve improved logging at the same time:

Those are instructions for the [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true).
Looks like you are trying to enter the database in the āweb onlyā container? š¤
You may need to enter the data container instead in your case
The good news is that [judging by this](https://meta.discourse.org/t/broken-update-error-must-be-owner-of-extension-vector-pg-insufficientprivilege/320817) this may now be unnecessary (at least for `tests-passed`) as I believe core has finally upgraded the vector extension via their standard scripting, so you may only have to fully rebuild.

Yes. Thanks.
(Yes, Iām no 2 container setup. Yes Iām on Tests-Passed).

Have added a thumbnail generation feature to this plugin.
Optionally it will depict the summary in an image it will automatically add to the top of the OP.
[https://github.com/merefield/discourse-ai-topic-summary/pull/20](https://github.com/merefield/discourse-ai-topic-summary/pull/20)
- You must enable it in plugin settings
- You can optionally elect to automatically delete the last top image each time
- You can edit the prompt via the link in the plugin settings so you can influence the style and content (but this will be applied to all subsequently generated images)
Enjoy š¼

My locally hosted Chatbot is replacing the name of any topic in a link with the term `slug`
eg, an expected link is
`https://localhost/t/title-of-the-topic-concerned/2341/5`
but Chatbot is hyperlinking references with a URL such as:
`https://localhost/t/slug/2341/5`
I tried searching using the term `slug` but couldnāt glean anything except for a mention of slug in the settings: `slug generation method` which is set to the default, `ascii`
Thanks in advance for any insights!

Mine is using form as `[Jagster](/t/-/11078/1)`. I donāt think that localhost changes that behaviour, but I donāt know it for sure.
But by Chatbot are you referring to the summary functionality of Discourse AI?

Iām sorry if Iām not using the right terminology. I have the Ai plugin enabled in a localhost instance and converse with it as @chatbot. Whether in a chat or in a topic reply, the responses are often linked to sources in topics elsewhere on the Discourse instance. Like this in a topic:
or this in a chat session:
In each case, the hyperlinked url is malformed as it replaces the topic name with `slug`

I asked only because out there is this too:

With that we can change prompts. But when using Discourse AI we canāt change the prompt of summary (at the monent).
The summary of DAI creates links right here, though. Thatās why you need some more pro than I am ever. Because your issues **may** come from outdated plugin or localhost install, and someone who really knows what is going on is needed.

Hello! š
Neither [Chatbot](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-chatbot/256652) nor this plugin are really designed to provide accurate links when running in local dev.
The target for functionality is always Production though of course itās a bonus when you can test in dev.
I absolutely would accept a good PR if you were to submit one that improved support for localhost links.

Doesnāt the link work like this? I would expect it to work the same way as the one with the topic title, because Discourse relies on the topic id.

Might not work as missing the port number.
