How Can I Edit Past Chat Output for Better Contextual Understanding in Future Interactions

[ramonsimon]

I'm currently working on a chatbot application in Flask that maintains an ongoing conversation with users. The application saves the chat history in a memory so that it can refer back to it for context during future interactions.

My current function looks like this:

@app.route('/api/conversation', methods=['POST'])
def converse():

    # Request JSON data
    data = request.get_json()

    # Verify that the necessary data was provided
    if 'message' not in data or 'memory_id' not in data:
        return jsonify({'error': 'Missing required parameter'}), 400

    message = str(data['message'])

    memory_id = data['memory_id']

    # Check if we already have a conversation and memory for this memory_id.
    # If not, create new ones.
    if memory_id not in memories:
        memories[memory_id] = ConversationSummaryBufferMemory(llm=llm, max_token_limit=2000, return_messages=True)
        conversations[memory_id] = ConversationChain(llm=llm, memory=memories[memory_id], verbose=True)

        # Set a timer to delete the conversation after 1 hour (3600 seconds)
        t = Timer(3600, delete_conversation, args=(memory_id,))
        t.start()

    with get_openai_callback() as cb:
        response = conversations[memory_id].predict(input=message)
        memories[memory_id].save_context({"input": message}, {"output": response})
        print(memories)
        print(cb)
        return jsonify({'response': response})

This function is designed to:

• Receive a JSON request with a message and a memory_id from the user
  

• Check if a memory for this user already exists and create one if it doesn't
  

• Predict the response and save the context
  

• Return the response
  

My issue lies in editing past chat output. I want to be able to adjust or correct previous responses that the bot provided so it can use the revised information for future interactions. However, I'm unsure of how to achieve this.

Here are a few specific questions:

How can I effectively modify past outputs stored in memory?
How will these modifications affect the predict function?
Are there any potential issues I should be aware of when modifying past output data?
