XNeuronal app bug defaults LLM titles to French due to system prompt language

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A bug in the XNeuronal application caused conversation titles to be generated in French, despite the user interacting in German. This occurred because the system prompt for generating titles was written in French, leading the LLM to default to French for titles, irrespective of the conversation's language. The issue was resolved by modifying the prompt to explicitly request titles in the user's chosen language, using English as the carrier language for instructions and native names for target languages.
