- **AUTOMATIC CHAT SUMMARIZATION!** - When the context limit of a conversation is reached, the bot will use GPT3 itself to summarize the conversation to reduce the tokens, and continue conversing with you, this allows you to chat for a long time!
- **Image prompt optimizer overhauled** - The optimizer works much better now, and makes beautiful image prompts that work even with Midjourney, SD, etc!
- **Fully async and fault tolerant - REVAMPED** - The bot will never be blocked when processing someone else's request, allowing for use in large servers with multiple messages per second!
- No need for the OpenAI and Asgiref libraries anymore!
- **DALL-E Image Generation** - Generate DALL-E AI images right in discord with `/draw <prompt>`! It even supports multiple image qualities, multiple images, creating image variants, retrying, and saving images.
- **DALL-E Image Prompt Optimization** - Given some text that you're trying to generate an image for, the bot will automatically optimize the text to be more DALL-E friendly! `/imgoptimize <prompt>`
- Change and view model parameters such as temp, top_p, and etc directly within discord.
- Tracks token usage automatically
- Automatic pagination and discord support, the bot will automatically send very long message as multiple messages, and is able to send discord code blocks and emoji, gifs, etc.
- A low usage mode, use a command to automatically switch to a cheaper and faster model to conserve your tokens during times of peak usage.
- Prints debug to a channel of your choice, so you can view the raw response JSON
- Ability to specify a limit to how long a conversation can be with the bot, to conserve your tokens.
You can learn how to add the discord bot to your server via https://www.ionos.co.uk/digitalguide/server/know-how/creating-discord-bot/
Both the OpenAI API key and the Discord bot token needed to be loaded into a .env file in the same local directory as the bot file.
You also need to add a DEBUG_GUILD id and a DEBUG_CHANNEL id, the debug guild id is a server id, and the debug channel id is a text-channel id in Discord. Your final .env file should look like the following:
You also need to add the allowed guilds that the bot can operate on, this is the `ALLOWED_GUILDS` field, to get a guild ID, right click a server and click "Copy ID".
You also need to add the roles that can use the bot, this is the `ALLOWED_ROLES` field, enter role names here, separated by commas. Currently, there is no way to give everybody access to the bot, and you have to use roles, but it will be done soon.
First, you want to get a server, for this guide, I will be using DigitalOcean as the host.
For instructions on how to get a server from start to finish, they are available on DigitalOcean's website directly from the community, available here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-ubuntu-20-04-server-on-a-digitalocean-droplet. Ignore the part about setting up an "ssh key", and just use a password instead.
After you set up the server, the DigitalOcean GUI will give you an IP address, copy this IP address. Afterwards, you will need to SSH into the server. This can be done using a program such as "PuTTy", or by using your commandline, if it's supported. To login to the server, your username will be "root", your password will be the password that you defined earlier when setting up the droplet, and the IP address will be the IP address you copied after the droplet was finished creation.
To connect with ssh, run the following command in terminal:
`ssh root@{IP ADDRESS}`
It will then prompt you for your password, which you should enter, and then you will be logged in.
After login, we need to install the various dependencies that the bot needs. To do this, we will run the following commands:
# Copy the sample.env file into a regular .env file. `DEBUG_GUILD` and the ID for `ALLOWED_GUILDS` can be found by right-clicking your server and choosing "Copy ID". Similarly, `DEBUG_CHANNEL` can be found by right-clicking your debug channel.
- Make sure you have updated your .env file with valid values for `DEBUG_GUILD`, `DEBUG_CHANNEL` and `ALLOWED_GUILDS`, otherwise the bot will not work. Guild IDs can be found by right clicking a server and clicking `Copy ID`, similarly, channel IDs can be found by right clicking a channel and clicking `Copy ID`.
`/chat-gpt private:yes` - Start a private conversation with the bot, like ChatGPT
`/chat-gpt opener:<opener text>` - Start a conversation with the bot, with a custom opener text (this is useful if you want it to take on a custom personality from the start)
`/chat-gpt minimal:yes` - Start a conversation with the bot, like ChatGPT, with minimal context (saves tokens)
- Note that the above options for /chat-gpt can be combined (you can combine minimal, private, and opener!)
`/settings low_usage_mode True/False` Turn low usage mode on and off. If on, it will use the curie-001 model, and if off, it will use the davinci-003 model.
All the model parameters are configurable inside discord. Type `!gp` to view all the configurable parameters, and use `/settings <param> <value>` to set parameters. For example, if I wanted to change the number of images generated by DALL-E by default to 4, I can type the following command in discord: `/settings num_images 4`
