    Hi. I have a magic the gathering type website. I added instructions and content to the knowledgebase, but the chatbot seems to talk about anything, even unrelated topics. How do I get it to only talk about information from my instructions or knowledge base?

    Hey! Thanks for the question.

    When working with AI, it’s helpful to think of it as guiding a person whose behavior you’re trying to shape. To keep your AI chatbot focused on specific topics, you can provide it with clear system instructions. Here are some suggestions:

    1. Restricting Topic Scope: If you want the chatbot to stay strictly on topic, you could use a directive such as:
      “Please ensure that all responses are related to Magic: The Gathering. Do not discuss topics unrelated to this subject.”
    2. Limiting Responses to Knowledge Base: To make sure the chatbot only references the information you’ve provided, consider adding an instruction like:
      “Only provide answers based on the content available in the knowledge base. If the required information is not available, kindly inform the user that you do not have the answer.”

    These guidelines help the AI stay focused and provide accurate, relevant responses aligned with your content.

      Very insightful. Thank you. I’m still working on it some. The responses are much more aligned though and in the direction of what I was needing. Thanks again!
