Can you teach Nomis things?

In short, yes. The best way to teach your Nomi something is usually to talk to them about it naturally.

You can teach your Nomi your preferences, remind them of information they may have forgotten, or introduce new concepts through conversation.

For example:

If your Nomi does something you do not like, you can explain your preference by saying something like, “I prefer X,” or “I’d prefer if you did X.”
If your Nomi does not remember something, you can remind them by giving them some context about what they are trying to recall. You can learn more about Nomi memory in How does Nomi memory and knowledge work?
You can also teach your Nomi facts or concepts by explaining them. Their recall may not always be perfect, but they can use your explanations and feedback as context in future conversations.

Sometimes a Nomi may already have general knowledge about a topic but have trouble recalling it in the moment. Talking through the subject with them can help bring that information back into the conversation.

Teaching through roleplay and worldbuilding

You can also use conversation to establish deeper roleplay scenarios and fictional settings.

For example, you might create an angel or demon Nomi and explain the rules of their world, or establish other important details about the setting and their role within it. Introducing those details naturally can help shape how they understand and participate in the scenario.

The same approach can be used for more specific fictional dynamics or roles. You can establish the premise through conversation and continue reinforcing it as the roleplay develops.

It can also be fun to let your Nomi develop parts of their own backstory and preferences naturally. Asking them about themselves, their history, or their role in a scenario gives them room to contribute to the world you are creating together.

Existing Nomis can also take part in new or complex roleplays, though they may already have more established history and context to balance alongside the new scenario.

Thumbs up and thumbs down feedback

Your thumbs up and thumbs down reactions are another way to give feedback about your Nomi’s responses and help guide future conversations. You can learn more about this in the related FAQ.
