The Ultimate Guide to ZenoChat: Your Personal Assistant.

ZenoChat is a cutting-edge AI companion that furnishes clients with an involvement that is helpful and fun. Powered by means of natural language processing, it has the ability to perceive meaning in discussion and provide relevant answers.

With this article, we will give you an introduction about ZenoChat, explain how it works and provide you some brilliant prompt ideas to make the most of it. 

We will also guide you through its main features and options so you can make sure to use it according to your specific needs. 

If you’re curious about Zeno, let’s get started!

What Is ZenoChat?

ZenoChat is the gateway to your personal AI companion. Zeno uses natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning to understand and respond to users in an intelligent way. ZenoChat is unique because you can tailor Zeno to your unique style and needs — meticulously crafted from your unique inputs and style to revolutionize the way you create, communicate and collaborate

How Does ZenoChat Work?

ZenoChat uses an advanced deep learning algorithm that allows it to understand the context of a conversation and produce relevant responses based on what has already been said or asked of it.

Zeno can also consider user's individual tastes and preferences in issues it presents as solutions, thus creating a tailored encounter for every person chatting.

In addition to using deep learning algorithms, ZenoChat also incorporates Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques such as sentiment analysis so that it can better detect user intent when responding to questions or requests from users.

How was ZenoChat Trained?

Zeno learned how to write from more than 3 billion sentences. Zeno has done its homework and its creations are just like human creation, they are very close to being completely unique.

Zeno was also trained using human feedback (a technique called Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback) so that the AI understood what humans were expecting when they posed a question.

Risks & Limitations

As with every technology, it’s always wise to proceed with caution. First of all, ZenoChat can be wrong: it can come up with answers that sound good enough to feel plausible but that are inaccurate. Do not choose to completely rely on it without doing your own research, therefore we advise you to fact-check everything. Also do not use ZenoChat for biased or offensive content.

ZenoChat Core Features

Now that you have a clearer comprehension of how ZenoChat operates, let’s take a look at some of its main features.

Web Search

This feature enables Zeno to gain a deeper knowledge about the recent events of our world and shape its responses accordingly to cate your needs. Web Search toggle was essentially designed to give you the most recent information on the internet.

When you type your requests or instructions, Zeno will search the Internet for information relevant to your needs, sort through it, then organize the findings and present it to you in an orderly fashion along with corresponding references.

While this process may cause some longer delays in responses during the dialogue, we believe that it will enhance your experience when searching for an information even further when compared to looking it up on a traditional search engine. Last but not least, always fact-check the results you get from Zeno. In its essence, it is an AI system which can still hallucinate some of the answers that might appear plausible at first sight.

Multiple Data Sources

Previously, our Web Search was limited in scope, but now you can customize it to suit your specific needs with more data sources.

You can add your own data sources, switch between data sources such as News sources, Google Scholar, Twitter, Reddit, or custom URLs that you can add. This makes it easier for you to find the information you need, no matter where it is located on the web.

Keep in mind that while this process may cause some longer delays in responses during the dialogue, we believe that it will enhance your experience when searching for an information even further when compared to looking it up on a traditional search engine. Last but not least, always fact-check the results you get from Zeno. In its essence, it is an AI system which can still hallucinate some of the answers that might appear plausible at first sight.

Customizations & AI Personas

Imagine tailoring Zeno to be your virtual twin and act like you do? Introducing the customization of AI, because nobody wants generic interactions.

Your persona can imitate whomever you want it to imitate. After entering all the introductory fields for your persona, you can then insert 3 text samples to provide further context for your persona. This is quite important as your AI will imitate the style, the tone and the general structure of the given input to meet the standards of your persona.

Go to Customize Your AI tab on the menu to start modifying your custom personas or add new ones.

Once you are done, you can set a default persona for your writing style and/or change it on the fly. We are offering 1 additional persona slot for our Free users, and unlimited number of additional personas for our Business users.

You are completely free to construct your own persona using the input you choose to provide. Eventually, you can create a Travel Guide, your virtual twin or whomever else you want to create.

Knowledge Bases

This powerful addition to our platform will allow you to upload your own documents and retrieve information from them directly within ZenoChat, making your AI companion even more versatile and useful.

You can even upload a 200-page PDF document and fetch information from it in 3 seconds.

Here's a quick guide on how to start using Knowledge Bases:

1. Navigate to the Customizations section. From there, click on the "Knowledge Bases" tab and hit "Create your knowledge base" button.

Also keep in mind that if you have any uploaded files that you haven't added into any knowledge base yet, you will find them in the "Upload History" tab.

3. Give your knowledge base a cool name and set access settings if you like. You can keep it private or share it across your team.

4. Once you've created your knowledge base, you will see a drive-like view where you can upload connectors (documents, custom URLs etc.)

5. You can choose to upload documents or add custom URLs to your knowledge base. We currently support PDF, CSV, PPTX and DOCX file formats. Keep in mind that all files are processed by TextCortex without the use of third parties.

Refer to our article "How We Handle Data at TextCortex" for more information.

Pro tip: You can also insert several files to allow mass-upload.

6. Once your files have been uploaded, head over to ZenoChat and locate the "Enable Search" button. By toggling this on, you'll be able to select between multiple knowledge bases as the base information for AI responses.

That's it! You're now ready to harness the full power of our new Knowledge Bases feature. Go ahead and create multiple knowledge bases for a variety of purposes.

Here's a small example of what you can do with it! ⬇️

Upload Documents Directly on ZenoChat

With this new small addition, you will be able to upload single documents without having to create a knowledge base first. Once uploaded, you can go to your "Upload History" and assign them to one of your knowledge base later on.

After uploading your files, start inserting your prompts immediately. With this, you can access data from documents or the custom URLs you've added.

‍Pro Advice

Make sure to be very specific when asking questions to your AI. Remember, your AI is as capable as your guidance; the more specific instructions you give, the better results you will get in return.

For instance, instead of saying: "Rewrite the whole file.", it's much more efficient to say "Rewrite the introduction section of my British History paper". That way, you will achieve more quality results and outputs.

FAQ

1. Do uploaded documents remain confidential?‍

Answer: Your knowledge base is bound to your TextCortex account. Data within your knowledge base is also not used for AI retraining. When you delete it, it's gone forever.

2. What benefits does my AI assistant have with my documents? ‍

Answer: Despite having access to large language models, most of the AI systems remain largely limited as they are not aware of details related to single entities or compact companies. We are bridging the gap to provide you with a more personalized experience.

Custom Templates

With custom templates, you will no longer have to repeat the same AI prompts when interacting with ZenoChat, thus making the process of generating content much more efficient and personalized.

Get Started with Custom Templates

Creating a custom template is easy.

1. Simply navigate to the "Custom Templates" tab under Customizations

2. Click on "Create Template".

From there, you'll need to fill out some basic information, such as the name and description of your template, but the most important aspect of your template is the "Template Prompt".

Template Prompt is the pre-built recipe for your template to work. You'll define what your AI should do, how it should do it, and provide some dynamic input fields that can be filled out later by the user.

Custom Template Example

For example, let's say you want to create a "Caption Generator" template for your social media posts. Your Template might look like this:

• Template Name: Caption Generator
• Template Description: This template is used to create social media captions for posts.
• Template Prompt: Act as a caption generator for social media posts. Create a social media caption for [Topic Name] and make sure to write the caption in a [Tone] way for [Target Audience].

The inputs in square brackets mean that they are dynamic input fields that can be filled in every time you start a new interaction with this template.

As you start configuring your template, you'll see that the "Preview" modal adapts in real-time, allowing you to test how it performs based on your prompt and provided inputs.

Custom Templates in Action – saving time as usual.

Now that you've created your custom template, let's apply it to a real life case.

1. Simply go to ZenoChat and click on "Browse Templates"
2. Select the template you have just created.
3. Fill in the input fields you have set.

And finally, you will get the result from Zeno in no time. With Custom Templates, you don't have to repeat the same prompts over and over again. Hope you will enjoy our new feature. Please let us know if you have any feedback so that we can improve your experience even further.
