You can access chat settings to adjust how the model generates text. By adjusting these settings, you can fine-tune the balance between creativity and accuracy, depending on the nature of your project or conversation.

​
Understanding Chat Settings

This toggle allows you to turn on or off streaming mode. When enabled, the model will stream responses word by word or in chunks rather than delivering the full response at once. This can create a more dynamic, conversational experience.

If you want to use a tool in your prompt, you need to turn this option off to do so, due to a Ollama limitation.

​
Setting Up your Chat for Improved Responses

To achieve optimal responses from an AI model, consider the following setup:

1

Determine Your Goals

For creative tasks (e.g., storytelling), use a higher temperature (around 0.8) with moderate top-p (0.9) and top-k (30).

For factual or structured responses (e.g., technical writing), lower temperature (0.5) with lower top-p (0.7) and top-k (20) may be preferable.

2

Experiment and Iterate

Start with recommended values and adjust based on output quality.

Monitor for balance between creativity and coherence; tweak one parameter at a time to understand its impact.

3

Utilize Feedback Loops

Incorporate user feedback or evaluation metrics to refine settings further.

By carefully tuning these parameters, you can significantly enhance the performance of AI models in generating relevant, coherent, and engaging text outputs tailored to specific applications or audiences.
