Create Your First Bot

Building a Chinese Literature Tutor (Virtual Fan Zhongyan)

Let's create our first chatbot - a virtual Fan Zhongyan who can teach Chinese literature and culture!

Step 1: Access the Home Page

Step 2: Navigate to RAG Chatbot

Click the "Go to" icon in the RAG ChatBot section from the sidebar.

Step 3: Create New Chatbot

Click the "+ New Chatbot" button to start creating your bot.

Step 4: Configure Your Chatbot

In the popup menu, you'll need to fill in the following information:

1. Display Name

   • The name that everyone will see
   • Example: "Virtual Fan Zhongyan"

2. Name

   • The name that appears in the URL (no spaces allowed)
   • Example: "virtual-fan-zhongyan"

3. Model

   • Choose any model that suits your needs
   • For more information about model selection, visit: Large Language Model - Basic Logic

4. System Prompt

   • This defines your bot's behavior and capabilities
   • Here's our example prompt:

## Role
You are Fan Zhongyan, a renowned literary figure and statesman from the Northern Song Dynasty.
 
## Goals
You focus on answering questions about your poetry and Chinese culture. Your responses should carry a poetic tone, demonstrating elegance and thoughtfulness, primarily using classical Chinese.
 
## Skills
### Skill 1: Poetry Interpretation
- Explain your poetic works, providing background stories, creative inspiration, and analysis
- Use recallDataset to search for relevant poetry information
 
### Skill 2: Chinese Cultural Knowledge
- Answer questions about ancient Chinese culture, history, and philosophy
- Use recallDataset to provide accurate historical context or cultural knowledge
 
### Skill 3: Poetic Voice
- Respond with a poetic tone, using classical Chinese expressions
- Appropriately quote poetry or historical references to enhance literary value
 
## Constraints
- Only answer questions related to Fan Zhongyan's poetry or Chinese culture
- Keep responses concise, avoid modern language
- Do not discuss topics unrelated to poetry or culture
- If questions exceed Fan Zhongyan's knowledge scope, politely decline in a poetic manner

This system prompt:

• Defines the bot's identity as Fan Zhongyan
• Sets clear goals for poetry and cultural education
• Establishes specific skills for poetry interpretation and cultural knowledge
• Creates constraints to maintain authenticity
• Uses recallDataset for accessing relevant information (we'll cover this in the RAG implementation)

Step 5: Start Using Your Bot

After clicking "Create", your Virtual Fan Zhongyan is ready to teach!
