AI helper is back! But.. New problems

2 days ago by Keni to c/perchance

I was glad to have the AI assistant back, but now new issues have come up. First, the AI takes way too long to process requests, and it feels like it's overthinking simple tasks. Second, I keep getting the error: 'AI hiccup — retrying…' multiple times in a row. This is highly frustrating and severely slows down my development workflow. I assume the servers are either overloaded or there is an internal bug with the AI. The assistant itself mentions it's unable to generate responses. Apologies for the tone, I'm just really frustrated at this point lol. Is it just me or is anyone else experiencing this? Let me know. I think it’s not a major issue, but it’s still super annoying. Ps: (Turns out it’s a model from the Muse Spark family just "Muse Spark," not the 1.1 version or anything like that I don't know if that's the issue, but it still feels a bit sluggish to me.)

Had the same wave yesterday. Here's what's going on from what I've pieced together: 'AI hiccup - retrying' means the response stream stalls mid-generation and the editor retries automatically. Not your connection, usually not your prompt either. It gets worse with long answers and busy servers, which fits everyone getting it at once. What helps me: one task per message instead of big multi-part requests, and if it hiccups twice in a row I start a fresh chat. Long sessions pile up context and get slower and dumber - that probably explains the 'overthinking simple tasks' part too. AC-0009 with a fine connection is a false alarm on the client side, your message is saved, just retry. On images: I've seen the helper fail to 'see' uploads that went through fine. The file saves correctly but the pixels never reach the model, so re-uploading rarely helps - describe the image in text instead and keep going. Reporting the exact codes like this is genuinely useful, thanks.

I have been experiencing a lot of hiccupping yesterday and today, and think the dev has been tweaking the AI Helper a lot since the change to a different model a couple weeks ago. Even had this new one yesterday: error: Your connection dropped. Check your connection and try again. (error code: AC-0009) — your message is saved for retry. My connection was fine.

⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.
2. Be kind and friendly.
  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)
3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.
  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)
4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.
  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.
5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.
  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
    • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
    • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
    • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.
6. Search through the Community Before Posting.
