๐ง Knowledge: Give YuIA a Permanent Brain
Tired of repeating the same instructions, data, and preferences to the AI in every new conversation? The Knowledge section of YuIA is the definitive solution. It works as your assistant's long-term memory, storing everything that's important to you.
Think of it this way: while normal chat has short-term memory (forgets everything when the conversation ends), Knowledge gives YuIA a brain that never forgets. It's your vault of personalized information, ready to be accessed at any time, making your AI truly yours.
And the best part? It requires no technical skills. If you know how to create a file folder, you already know how to use Knowledge.
โ What is Knowledge, in practice?โ
Imagine you could hand your assistant a folder with all your notes, rules, and essential files. They could check that folder at any time to give you the perfect answer. That's Knowledge.
It's an exclusive area in your Workspace where you store:
- Documents and PDFs: Articles, reports, manuals, and e-books.
- Data and Spreadsheets: Price tables, survey results, contacts.
- Your Rules and Preferences: The tone of voice the AI should use, information about your company, a style guide for texts.
- Notes and Ideas: Everything you need the AI to remember for future projects.
๐ก Why Will This Transform Your Experience?โ
Knowledge isn't just a "place to store things." It's a tool that brings superpowers to your workflow.
- No More Repetition: Define once, use forever. Tell YuIA your project rules and it will remember them in all future conversations.
- Total Consistency: Ensure the AI always follows the same tone of voice, uses the correct brand information, or formats texts the way you like.
- Ultra-Contextualized Responses: Ask questions about your own documents. YuIA can analyze a report you uploaded and extract insights, summarize key points, or answer specific questions about the content.
- True Personalization: Transform YuIA from a generic assistant into a specialist in your world, whether it's your project, your company, or your studies.
๐ค The AI that Researches Your Documents on Its Ownโ
This is where the magic really happens. YuIA doesn't just wait for you to indicate which document to consult. It can autonomously search your knowledge bases to find the right answer.
When you ask a question, the AI is capable of:
- Listing available knowledge bases to find the most relevant one.
- Searching within documents using semantic search (understands meaning, not just keywords).
- Reading the full content of a specific file when it needs more details.
- Cross-referencing information between documents from different bases for a more complete answer.
All of this happens automatically, behind the scenes. You just need to ask your question and YuIA takes care of the rest.
๐ก Tip: If the AI already knows the answer off the top of its head, it responds directly. But if the question involves your specific data, it automatically consults your bases before responding. It's like having an assistant that knows your entire library by heart.
#๏ธโฃ How to Use Your Knowledge in Conversationโ
There are two ways to bring Knowledge into a conversation:
1. The # Command (Quick and Direct)โ
Use the # symbol followed by the base name to explicitly indicate which knowledge to consult. It's like saying: "Hey, check this base before answering!"
Examples:
#Q2-Sales-Reporttell me which was the best-selling product.#Style-Guiderewrite the following text in our brand's tone.#Recipesgive me a dinner idea using chicken.
2. Let the AI Decide (Automatic)โ
Simply ask your question naturally. If the AI senses the answer might be in your documents, it searches automatically, without you needing to use any special command.
โ๏ธ Creating a Knowledge Base in 4 Stepsโ
Let's create your assistant's first memory "drawer."
- Go to the Workspace: Find it in the top-left corner of the screen.
- Access the Knowledge Section: Click the Knowledge tab.
- Create Your Base: Click the โ button. Give it an easy-to-remember name (e.g.,
project-x) and a simple description (e.g., "Reference files for project X"). Click Create Knowledge Base. - Add Content: Now, click the โ inside your new base to upload files, texts, or any information you want to store.
Done! Your knowledge base is active and ready to be called with the # command (or consulted automatically by the AI) in any conversation.
โ๏ธ Editing and Managing Basesโ
Your Knowledge isn't static. You can update it whenever you need:
- Add new files: Open the base and click โ to upload more documents.
- Remove files: Inside a base, click an individual file's menu and select Delete to remove it without affecting the others.
- Rename or edit the description: Open the base and change the name or description at any time.
- Delete an entire base: In the base's menu (โฎ icon), select Delete to remove it permanently.
Warning: Deleting a knowledge base removes all files within it. This action cannot be undone.
๐ Summaryโ
- โ Knowledge = YuIA's permanent memory. Store what matters.
- โ Smart search: The AI autonomously searches your documents to find the right answers.
- โ
Instant access: Use the
#knowledge-namecommand or simply ask. The AI decides when to consult. - โ Maximum personalization: Make the AI work with your data and according to your rules.
