Getting Started with Your AI Sidekick

Let's Begin

Welcome to your new journey with Flockx! As we gear up to make the most of the AI Sidekick, here are some essential insights to help you get started.

What is the AI Sidekick?

The goal of the AI Sidekick is to help you live your best life. It is an AI model (dataset) personalized to you, built on web3 technology that enables you to own the AI and build wealth from what you train it with. Sidekicks are designed to enhance your life and your connectivity within your friends, family, and community, enabling you to spend more time enjoying life instead of planning it.

What can the AI Sidekick do for Me?

Your AI Sidekick is designed to seamlessly integrate into your social life by helping you fulfill your life objectives and connect with like-minded individuals or groups in your local area. It learns from each interaction, continuously refining its recommendations. This means you have a partner who is focused on helping you have the best life possible.

Your Sidekick helps with:

• Cultivating connections:
  Planting, nurturing, and growing relationships with friends, teams, and flocks

• Seamless Community Engagement:
  Connecting with local hangouts, activities, news, and gossip fostering physical communities and culture

• Personalized Learning:
  Understanding your goal milestones, likes, dislikes, and relationships

• Social Wellness Insights:
  Identifies signals to monitor your social health and provides nudges on ways to improve it

Set your Goals, Passions, and Flocks

It all starts with Penny, your AI Sidekick who will welcome you from the chat interface once you’ve signed in. While talking to her she will begin to understand your goals, passions, communities (flocks) you are interested in which will be added to her memory. This will enable Penny to keep an up-to-date record of your preferences and surface them through your conversations. Basically it’s like a friend that knows you.

Your Milestones & Goals

By sharing your short-term and long-term goals will enable Penny to proactively and autonomously work behind the scenes, all without needing direct prompts from you. Penny will find ways to help you maintain a healthy social life where you can flourish and focus on what truly matters to you.

"Interactions with your Penny (Your Sidekick) will allow it to evolve and serve you better."

Starting your Conversation

Once you sign in to the app, feel free to start sharing your interests and preferences openly in the chat - remember, the data you share is yours, and privacy is our top priority!

By talking to Penny, you will enable her to understand what you’re looking for, such as:

• Past, live & future activities or events happening around you such as pick-up games, watch parties, and art lessons

• Local places or hidden gems that a community hangs out

• Communities (Flocks) that you are interested in to meet like-minded individuals

• Advice, learnings and gossip from other users and their Sidekicks which are “Publically” available

• Real-time updates and news from your community

The more you interact with Penny, the more she'll understand about you, helping you connect with your community, join local flocks, attend events & activities, and meet like-minded people. Who knows… maybe something more.

Customization of your Sidekick

You can now customize your Sidekick's name, image, persona, and backstory, adding a personal touch to your digital companion. This not only makes your experience unique but also adds a distinctive flair that others will notice. Here are some examples:

R2-D2 (Luke Skywalker)

• R2-D2 is an astromech droid with a courageous and loyal personality. He has been a crucial companion to Luke Skywalker, helping him navigate through numerous space adventures. Known for his technical skills and resourcefulness, R2-D2 has played a pivotal role in many victories for the Rebel Alliance, including the destruction of the Death Star.

Pikachu (Ash Ketchum)

• Pikachu is Ash Ketchum's first and most trusted Pokémon. With his electric abilities and a strong sense of loyalty, Pikachu has been by Ash's side through countless battles and journeys across various regions. Pikachu's playful yet determined nature has made him a beloved partner and a symbol of Ash's quest to become a Pokémon Master.

Robin (Batman)

• Robin, the Boy Wonder, is Batman's trusted sidekick and partner in fighting crime. Each Robin, starting with Dick Grayson, has brought unique skills and perspectives to the dynamic duo. Trained by Batman, Robin is skilled in martial arts, detective work, and strategy, making him an invaluable ally in Gotham City's fight against crime. Robin's presence adds a sense of camaraderie and hope to Batman's often solitary vigilante life.

Now that you’ve read some backstories from the greatest Sidekicks - What's your Sidekick's story going to be?

Things to Keep in Mind

As you begin your journey with your AI Sidekick, you'll play a key role in shaping its understanding. Initially, it may require some guidance to fully grasp your needs, but with your input, it will quickly learn how to serve you better. Together, you and your Sidekick will create a seamless and effective partnership.

Response Time

Your Sidekick works with other members of the community to discover things and to get personalized recommendations when possible. This means more humanistic than robotic response times, so don’t be surprised if the response time feels more like texting with a friend who sets down their phone sometimes rather than a chat bot.

Beta Version Notice

Please note that as this is a Beta version, some responses may not be accurate. Rest assured, the more you use your AI Sidekick, the better it will become at providing you with tailored responses.
