When you’ve been driving the wave of Bitcoin’s newest surge or watching your crypto pockets develop, the vacations would possibly really feel like the proper time to show these positive aspects into memorable items.
However as any seasoned gifter is aware of, an enormous price ticket doesn’t all the time assure an enormous impression.
That is the place SantaBot—our AI agent experiment designed that can assist you step up your gift-giving recreation—might help.
The venture began with a easy query: Might AI decode private chat messages to counsel extra significant presents to your pals and family members? Because it seems, it will probably.
Designed to take the guesswork out of giving, SantaBot digs by way of dialog histories to construct detailed persona profiles, gathering insights about their habits, preferences, and different features.
It even maps out Myers-Briggs and Enneagram persona varieties primarily based on how folks speak to one another.
The device offers artistic personalization concepts to make every present really distinctive.
For example, you might present your son a baseball bat engraved together with his uniform quantity and initials or shock your spouse with a smartwatch that includes straps in her favourite shade. These small, considerate touches could make a big effect.
Palms-On
Earlier than giving my bot to the world, I made a decision to present it a strive. I uploaded my WhatsApp dialog with my spouse and requested her to inform me the perfect items I might give her.
SantaBot psychoanalyzed my spouse’s WhatsApp messages, and folk, we have ourselves a licensed Kind 2 persona (Helper, Giver) with a serious love for desserts and health.
In keeping with the bot, she’s what persona consultants name an ESFJ (Extraverted, Sensing, Feeling, Judging), mainly somebody who’d arrange a gaggle hug after which make certain everybody stuffed out a satisfaction survey afterward.
The persona evaluation reveals she ranks excessive in agreeableness and extraversion, average in neuroticism (their phrases, not mine—I worth my life), and has a sensible streak that someway would not apply to transportation selections.
The bot did not simply cease at fundamental persona traits. It went full CIA analyst on our conversations, noting some fascinating issues like her use of “Te quiero mucho mi flaquito” (translation: “I like you, my skinny one”) to her appreciation for little particulars as an alternative of luxurious issues.
SantaBot even picked up on her Uber dependancy sooner than our bank card firm.
It painted an image of somebody who’s health-conscious however will not stroll two blocks if there is a automotive service out there—which isn’t 100% however is straightforward to deduce if the one factor you recognize about her is our dialog historical past.
Now, for the present options, these have been a few of the most fun picks.:
For the sensible aspect:
A Miniature Chocolate Fountain with a personalized base that claims “Edgli’s [her nickname] Candy Spot.” (contemplating she confirmed curiosity in shopping for one for future occasions)
An “Uber Survival Package” with a pay as you go card (cheaper than shopping for her an precise automotive) or a mug with “Boss of Uber Requests” printed on it.
A literal vault for her chocolate stash with “Preserve Out, Except You are Amorsito” engraved on it—so I keep away from it.
For the flowery pants moments:
A customized field with desserts from Venezuela and Brazil.
A spa equipment named “Aromas de Edgli” (a lot fancier than “Odor Like My Spouse”).
A leather-based planner embossed with “Amorsito’s Plans.”
A Star Map Print showcasing the constellations of a significant date, just like the day we met or the day our daughter was born.
And for when cash isn’t any object:
A smartwatch to assist her preserve observe of her health exercise and burn energy.
A designer purse along with her initials embossed.
A weekend getaway that includes a chocolate-tasting expertise in Gramado (mainly a desert safari in one in every of Brazil’s finest vacationer locations).
It additionally really helpful some humorous present concepts, together with a “Drama Queen Survival Package” (which she would hate), a “Customized Emoji Pillow” (which she would love) and a customized apron with a nickname like “Chef Sass Grasp”
I in contrast SantaBot head-to-head towards common ChatGPT to see the way it stacked up.
The distinction was clear—whereas customary ChatGPT performed it protected with generic options, our specialised model picked up on refined hints.
It’s not like its options have been ineffective, slightly than much less private.
How one can Get Santa Bot’s Assist
To make use of our device, you need to add your dialog historical past and work together with the mannequin, asking for suggestions.
You possibly can then go along with follow-up questions, asking for extra options, personalization concepts, offering extra contextual or personalised data, and so on. The extra data the AI handles, the higher the outcomes must be.
Some good beginning prompts might be so simple as “Please rigorously analyze this dialog and inform me what presents she/he would really like” to issues as complicated as “What are the perfect presents I might give to an individual with an ENFP kind of persona.”
You too can play with the device and iterate with it. As soon as it offers a reply, you’ll be able to ask for extra options, ask for funnier suggestions, ask for extra romantic present suggestions, and so on. All of it is determined by your intentions and expectations.
Exporting chats is fairly easy, relying on which messaging app you employ.

Additionally, make sure you solely add textual content conversations, so export your information with out images, voice notes, or paperwork.
This, after all, means there are privateness considerations that you need to tackle. SantaBot requires entry to these conversations to create its detailed profiles.
Sharing such private information with out permission might be unethical. The repair is not good, nevertheless it works: Ask the opposite individual for permission to make use of the dialog for an AI experiment. In the event that they agree, you’re good to go.
When you don’t wish to go that route, you’ll be able to take different steps.
First, names must be anonymized in exported chats by changing them with placeholders. For this, open your TXT file, choose the choice to edit and exchange textual content (this can fluctuate in keeping with your textual content processor), and select to alter the identify for the placeholder in each occasion. Save that file and add it to ChatGPT.
Second, guarantee OpenAI can’t use that chat to coach its fashions. For that, the very first thing you are able to do is modify your ChatGPT settings to disable recollections. To take action, click on in your profile image within the prime proper nook of ChatGPT, go to settings, personalize it, and switch off “Reminiscence.”
Alternatively, you’ll be able to click on on “Handle” after your dialog is finished and delete any reminiscence that might be created mentioning your newest chat.
Moreover, you’ll be able to forestall OpenAI from coaching its mannequin together with your dialog by blocking the potential of utilizing your information—which is allowed by default.
To vary that, go to Settings, click on on Information controls, and switch off the choice “Enhance the mannequin for everybody.” This sounds fairly, however in non-corpo language, it may be translated as “Let OpenAI use your conversations to coach its fashions totally free and doubtless cost you extra as soon as they get extra highly effective.”
Total, constructing GPTs and specialised brokers can deliver sensible options to on a regular basis challenges, just like the artwork of gifting.
Our AI could shock you with intelligent concepts that flip atypical presents into unforgettable gestures so that you might be as profitable in your loved ones reunions as you suppose you’re buying and selling crypto.
On the very least, when the presents miss the mark, you may have one thing higher responsible than your lack of creativity.
