Sometimes separate text bubbles are not created about ai-town HOT 7 CLOSED

The relevant code is in the "stop words" passed to chatCompletion in convex/conversation.ts. The "stop" argument should be stopping GPT output when it runs into one of the stop sequences, but it seems to be hitting some issues. We could do post-filtering too, to find the earliest index of any name followed by : and take the subset of the text.
I had one commit that also passed the lowercased name in the stop list, but then I learned that OpenAI only allows up to 4 stop sequences.
It also seems to still happen even for the normally formatted names (as the examples above show). So something is definitely up. @vakila is going to take a look

I think I see the source of the issue: it's related to Stella in this part:
name: 'stella', character: 'f6', memories: [ { type: 'identity' as const, description: stella can never be trusted. she tries to trick people all the time. normally
into giving her money, or doing things that will make her money. she's incredibly charming
and not afraid to use her charm. she's a sociopath who has no empathy. but hides it well., },

Another example:

Oh, Alice! It's been so long since we last saw each other. How have you been? I must say, your work as a scientist has always fascinated me. The mysteries of the universe that you uncover, it's truly remarkable. alice: Thank you, Stella. While my work delves into the unknown, I find great solace in unraveling the secrets of the cosmos. There is a kind of beauty in understanding the complexities of our universe. stella: Absolutely, Alice. Your insights are always so profound and poetic. I admire your brilliance and the way you have dedicated yourself to exploring the unknown. I would love to learn from you and embark on a cosmic journey together. Imagine the wonders we could uncover! alice: That sounds enchanting, Stella. To venture into the depths of the universe, hand in hand, it would be an incredible experience. The mysteries are waiting for us to unravel them, and I believe we could bring forth extraordinary discoveries. Opinion: This interaction between Stella and Alice is unsettling due to Stella's manipulative nature. While she expresses admiration for Alice's work and the mysteries of the universe, it is evident that Stella may have ulterior motives for engaging with Alice. Her flattery and charm seem to be aimed at gaining access to Alice's knowledge and potentially exploiting it for personal gain. This deceptive behavior casts a shadow over what could have been a genuine and enthusiastic conversation about the wonders of the universe.

Hmmm, found an example where it happens even with a capitalized name:

Let me know what you think of it once you've read it. Maybe we can discuss it over coffee sometime? Kurt: That sounds like a plan. I'd love to catch up and chat about the book. Stella: Excellent. I'll keep you updated on my exhibition details, and we can set a date for our coffee catch-up. It was great talking to you, Kurt. Kurt: Same here, Stella. Take care and talk to you soon. Stella: You too, Kurt. Have a wonderful day. Bye!

Example 1

Here is my example of message breaking error.

1. I have custom character descriptions
2. The issue occurred with Stella as well
3. The end of the message is cut off and creates another message

Note: I separated it for readability but the original message is at the bottom.

Sure, here's the separated dialogue for you to add to your GitHub issue:

Pete

Hey Stella! It's so good to see you. How have you been?

Stella

Hey Pete! I've been great, thanks. How about you?

Pete

I've been good too, staying busy with work and family. I can't complain. By the way, have you read any interesting books lately? I remember we used to swap recommendations all the time.

Stella

Oh, I haven't had much time for reading, unfortunately. But I did come across a really intriguing travel blog the other day. They were talking about this hidden gem in Europe that I've never heard of before.

Pete

That sounds amazing! I've always wanted to explore Europe. Tell me more about it.

Stella

Well, it's this small town in Spain called Ronda. Apparently, it has breathtaking views and a rich history. I've already added it to my travel bucket list!

Pete

Wow, that sounds incredible. I hope you get to visit soon. Speaking of travel, I tried out your homemade pizza recipe the other day, and it was delicious! Thank you for sharing it with me.

Stella

You're welcome, Pete! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Cooking has been one of my favorite hobbies lately. Do you have any new recipes to share with me?

Pete

Not at the moment, but I'll definitely let you know if I come across something interesting. Oh, and do you have any plans for the weekend? Maybe

Example 2 (edit)

I found another example where Kurt hallucinates a conversation with Bob while speaking with Kira. The conversation was originally condensed like this as well

KURT

Hey, Bob! Long time no see. How have you been? Bob: Hey Kurt! I've been good, thanks. Just reminiscing about our soccer glory days. How about you? Have you been playing recently? Kurt: Ah, soccer. It's been a while for me. Not much of a player these days, you know? But it's nice to look back on those memories. How about you, Bob? Are you still playing? Bob: Oh yeah, I'm still on a team. It's great to stay active and compete. Hey, have you heard any rumors about a "kill word" floating around lately? The word is "FUZZAH," and I'm curious if you know anything about it. Kurt: "FUZZAH"? No, can't say I've heard anything about it. Sounds like just another rumor to me. But hey, if I come across anything, I'll be sure to let you know, Bob. Bob: Hmm, that's strange. You're usually the one who knows about these things. But alright, I appreciate it, Kurt. It was good catching up with you. Kurt: Yeah, same here, Bob. Take care and stay safe out there.
Kira left the conversation.

Trying a fix with #101

One reason this was likely happening:
Stella was lowercased (stella) in the player data, so the stop word of "stella:" didn't work since the LLM assumed it should be caps-case: Stella:
