Guide to Chatting on Barbara AI

A short guide to getting the most out of Barbara AI, whether you are here for five minutes or a long evening.

Choose a voice, not a picture

Read two or three profiles before you begin. The portrait sets a mood, but the written temperament decides how a conversation will feel.

Open the way you would with a friend

A greeting and one honest sentence about your day gives a companion far more to work with than a list of instructions.

Set the scene when you want a story

Name a place, a time of day and a small detail. Companions on Barbara AI build the rest of the scene around it.

Let the pace change

Short exchanges suit a busy morning; long paragraphs suit a quiet night. Both are welcome.

Come back to the same thread

Returning to the same companion keeps a story continuous and makes the voice feel familiar.
