Is there a demo of this plugin installed anywhere to check it out before installing it?

A good way to demo this is to head over to Ask Discourse. It uses a PM to start a conversation, the same as the AI bot.

I made a bot slightly tweaking the “Research” bot that is built in. Research works fine. But with the custom bot, I am running into an issue where it uses the Search Tool and read topics but when it returns the link to the source its making up a URL, any thoughts on how to adjust this. I’ve been messing with temperature but have not had any success.

I wonder if this is attribute to either Model logic (LLM hallucination) or the way we have Tool calls implemented (haven’t seen this yet)

Have you tried other LLMs or modifying the prompts to follow instructions at all cost?

Which llm are you using?

I think it’s hallucinations. I have added a sentence to the prompt to use the exact URL and it leaves only the path without the FQDN.

In using Gemini. 1.5 built in and 2.0 pro setup as custom. I’ll test an another LLM.

I’m going to try adding the actual FQDN and tell it to make sure it uses that.

I’ll report back.

I strongly recommend using these models, instead 2.0 flash is both cheaper and better than either. If you want a super powerful model go with 2.5 pro.

Avoid using 1.5 for anything.

Sorry I did mean 2.0 Flash. Not pro.

As I use AI for research often the use of DOI (Digital object identifier) is prominent.

Consider asking for DOI and maybe an agent or similar to verify the DOI at doi.org (scroll to bottom of page for verification example)

Note: Here is a better example as the server for the object resolves faster.

The Google Gemini link in this section links to a hidden topic. At first, I didn’t notice that or the deprecation tag. Is there a reason why this guide does not link to Set up Gemini API Keys for Discourse AI instead? Maybe it would also be helpful to have that link at the top of the deprecated guide.
