This is a huge patch which does some major refactoring like:
- renaming "Image Generation" to "Image Creation" in most places,
to better match its new command (`!bai image create`)
- relocating image creation command (`!bai image` -> `!bai image create`),
so it wouldn't conflict with the new image editing command (`!bai image edit`)
- introducing a new image editing command (`!bai image edit`), which
is meant to work only with the OpenAI provider, but doesn't fully work yet
due to https://github.com/64bit/async-openai/issues/364, though a next patch will fix it
- adding support for reading images off of Matrix conversations and forwarding them to
text conversations. Works for OpenAI, but not for Anthropic yet
(requires custom patches) and not for OpenAI-Compat (no support for
images there)
- relocating some utils around (base64, mime)
When speech-to-text/flow-type = `only_transcribe`, the bot will now send
text messages by default, not notices.
While notice messages may be less desirable with other bots in the room,
it's probably a better default for most people who enable "transcribe-only" mode.
This is an improvement related to https://github.com/etkecc/baibot/issues/14
This patch introduces a new `baibot_conversation_start_time_utc`
variable which indicates the time the conversation got started.
Using `baibot_now_utc` is still possible, but given that the current
time is a moving target, its use is in conflict with prompt caching.
Because the new `baibot_conversation_start_time_utc` prompt variable
is a more reasonable default, we're now using it in all sample configs.
The other prerequisite seems to be not using a `prompt` (`prompt: null`),
but we already supported this.
It'd be nice to add an optional `max_completion_tokens` parameter as
well, for the benefit of the o1 models, but this is not yet supported by
async-openai.
Possibly tracked here: https://github.com/64bit/async-openai/issues/272
Since 2024-10-02, `gpt-4o` is actually the same as `gpt-4o-2024-08-06`.
We previously used `gpt-4o-2024-08-06`, because it was pointing to a
much better (longer context) model. Since they're both the same now,
we'd better stick to the unpinned model and make it easier for future
users to get upgrades.
This feature went through a few iterations. At some point,
a `(local timezone/time: unknown)` suffix was part of the
`baibot_now_utc` variable (hoping it improves the model's awareness that
it doesn't know the current local time), but the suffix was ultimately removed
as unnecessary.
Fixes https://github.com/etkecc/baibot/issues/10
This also includes them in the default prompts (for newly-created agents),
so that people can get a better experience out of the box.
