Omnifact gives you full control over the ’s response generation process. Sometimes you may want to stop a response that’s heading in the wrong direction or request a different approach to your question. These powerful features help you get exactly the information you need.

Take Control of the Conversation

Stop Generating Button Example
While Omnifact is generating a response, you have the ability to stop the process immediately if you notice it’s not providing what you need.

When to Stop a Response

Response is Off-Track

The AI is answering a different question than what you intended to ask.

Response is Too Long

The AI is providing more detail than you need or going into unnecessary tangents.

You Want to Rephrase

You realize your question could be clearer or more specific.

You Have a Better Idea

You’ve thought of a better way to approach your question while waiting.

How to Stop Response Generation

1

Locate the Stop button

While the AI assistant is actively generating a response, the send button in the chat input transforms into a Stop button (stop circle icon).
2

Click to stop immediately

Click the Stop button to halt the response generation instantly.
3

Choose your next action

After stopping, you can:
  • Regenerate Response: Click the regenerate icon on the assistant message to request a fresh answer
  • Edit Your Message: Click the edit icon on your message to rephrase your prompt
  • Write a Follow-up Question: Type a new or refined question in the input field to redirect the conversation
Stopping generation is particularly useful when you’re in a hurry and want to quickly refocus the conversation without waiting for a lengthy response to complete.

Regenerating AI Responses

Regenerate Response Button Example
If you’re not satisfied with a completed response, you can ask Omnifact to generate a new one without needing to retype your question.

When to Regenerate a Response

Unsatisfactory Answer

The response didn’t fully address your question or needs improvement.

Want an Alternative

You’re looking for different suggestions, approaches, or perspectives.

Need More Detail

The response was too general and you want more specific information.

Need Less Detail

The response was too detailed and you want a more concise summary.

How to Regenerate a Response

1

Find the Regenerate button

Below the completed assistant response, locate the Regenerate Response button (circular arrow icon) in the message action bar.
2

Click to request a new response

Click the Regenerate Response icon. Omnifact will immediately stream a fresh response to your question.
3

Review the new response

Omnifact will provide a completely new response to your original prompt. If desired, you can switch the AI model in the chat input first before clicking regenerate to compare answers across providers.
Each regenerated response is created independently, which means you may receive significantly different information or approaches each time you regenerate.

Continuing Responses

Sometimes, especially with complex requests or long outputs like code, the AI might stop generating a response before it’s completely finished because it reached a hidden limit called a “token limit”. If a response feels abruptly cut short due to token output limits, look for the Continue option on the message.

Continue vs. Regenerate

  • Continue: Tells the AI to pick up exactly where it left off, appending the rest of its thoughts to the existing response.
  • Regenerate Response: Tells the AI to discard the current response and start over with a brand new answer.

Using These Features Effectively

Try regenerating for creative tasks

For creative work like brainstorming campaigns or content ideas, regenerating responses gives you multiple sets of suggestions from different angles, helping spark your creativity.
If you notice early in a response that it’s not going to be helpful, stop the generation quickly and either regenerate, write a follow-up question, or rephrase your original question to save time and get better results.
For the best results, consider editing your original message to be more specific before regenerating. This gives the AI clearer instructions for the new response.

Did you know?

You can regenerate a response multiple times if needed. Each attempt will produce a different approach to answering your question.

Examples of Effective Regeneration

Here are scenarios where regenerating is particularly useful:
Original Question: “Write a product announcement email for our new software feature.”First Response: [A formal, detailed announcement]Why Regenerate: You want to see a more casual, customer-friendly toneAfter Regeneration: You receive a completely different style of announcement email that may better match your needs
