What you can do with TypingMind's AI Agent?

1. Assigned a based chat model with custom parameters

You can assign your AI agent the following:

• A specific chat model
• Custom Parameters like Temperature, Top_p, Max tokens, etc.

Toggle the Model & parameters under the Base model section to assign models and custom parameters.

This allows the AI Agent to always perform best with its custom model and settings.

2. Set skills for AI Agent with plugins and text-to-speech

You can assign your AI Agent with:

• Specific plugins, for example, Web Search
• A custom voice with text-to-speech

Toggle the Plugins or Text-to-speech under the Skills section to assign plugins or a voice for AI Agent.

3. Set knowledge for AI Agent

You have three options to connect your training files or knowledge base for the AI Agents:

• Upload training files directly—upload your PDF, XLSX, CSV, TXT files, etc., to the AI Agents.
• Access to your connected knowledge base via the Knowledge Base section in the Admin Panel. Learn how: Connect knowledge base to your AI Agents
• Use Dynamic Context via API - this allows you to retrieve content from an API and inject into the system prompt. This can be used to add live information to the AI or implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) from your own data sources (e.g., vector store database).

Toggle the Training files, Knowledge Base Access or Dynamic Context under the Knowledge section to set up the knowledge for AI Agent

Here are some important notes for training files:

• Assign a model to your AI Agent before adding training files.
• Your uploaded documents will be included directly in the model's system instructions.
• Make sure your document fits within the context length of the chosen model.

4. Use Few-shot prompting

Few-shot prompting is a technique to help the AI agent learn how to respond to users in a specific way by providing demonstrations in the prompt to steer the model to better performance.

The prompts will be automatically inserted at the beginning of every conversation, right after the system instructions (but not included in the system instruction). This is useful when you want the AI to always respond in a very specific format.

5. Improve the chat experience with Welcome messages and Conversation starters

The Welcome message allows the AI model to send the first greeting message when you choose to interact with it. This ensures you have a more engaging and personalized experience from the start.

The Conversation starters give you some ideas / suggestions on the first message you should ask the AI Agent.

6. Control user access and usage for each AI Agent

User access to the AI Agents will be controlled using user groups. Each user can be added to a group, and you can use these groups to restrict usage and access:

• Control AI Agent visibility: decide if the AI agent should be visible to a specific group of users or not.
• Control number of messages and characters users can send while using the AI Agent: restrict usage to ensure fair usage and control cost more efficiently.

Here's how to set up:

Step 1: Create user groups for your team members

Creating Groups for your team members allows you to categorize them into different groups of users, for example, Private group, Public group, BOD group, etc.

Please follow these steps to create groups for your members:

• Go to the Admin Panel in your workspace.
• Navigate to the Groups section under User Management.
• Click on Add New Group.

• Enter a Group Name that reflects the purpose or role of the group.
• (Optional) Enable Admin Access for this group if they can have access to the admin panel.
  • If you enable this option, ensure you assign appropriate Admin Roles to the group. These roles should align with the permissions you’ve defined in the Roles and Permissions settings.

• Click Manage next to the created group
• Click Add Members

• Select the users you want to include in this group from the list.

Step 2: Assign user groups to a specific AI Agent

You can manage the AI Agents visibility and usage limit using User Groups following the below guidelines:
