No. It’s just a simple conversation in a single thread. A normal use of AI chatbots. One chat, not separate.
(1) Here’s an example using my other software (not Pickaxe)
User input #1: Joe is a male. His 5th birthday is this coming April 3, 2025. How old is he today March 15, 2025?
Chatbot: Joe is 4 years old today.
Since his 5th birthday is coming up on April 3, 2025, and today is March 15, 2025, he hasn’t reached his 5th birthday yet. He was born on April 3, 2020, making him currently 4 years old.
User input #2: When was he born?
Chatbot: Joe was born on April 3, 2020.
Since his 5th birthday will be on April 3, 2025, we can determine he was born exactly 5 years before that date.
(2) Here’s an example using Pickaxe.
User input #1: Joe is a male. His 5th birthday is this coming April 3, 2025. How old is he today March 15, 2025?
Pickaxe: Let me help you calculate Joe’s age.
Given:
Joe will turn 5 on April 3, 2025
Today’s date is March 15, 2025
Since Joe hasn’t reached his birthday yet this year (April 3, 2025), he is currently 4 years old.
This is a simple calculation that doesn’t require any external tools - Joe will be 5 years old in about 19 days from the given current date, so he is currently 4 years old.
User input #2: When was he born?
Pickaxe: I apologize, but I need to know who “he” refers to in your question. Could you please specify which person you’d like to know the birth date for? Once you provide the name of the specific person, I can search for that information.
The problem is after asking a follow-up question, it doesn’t have the connection on what we are talking about. I am talking about Joe. My other software knows exactly who I’m talking about with the follow up question. But with PA, it doesn’t.
AI Chats in my experience normally have a conversation to a user based on the entire conversation thread, which Pickaxe right now don’t have.
Is this a memory problem? I thought this is a memory issue. Meaning, it cannot remember the previous conversation we had as a context to the new input I just gave.
