Bird can personalise its help in three different ways. They have different authors, audiences, and purposes. All three are available on every Bower plan.

Personal preferences

Personal preferences are a note you write for Bird. Use them for details you want to state directly, such as the depth of explanation you prefer, your field, or how you want results formatted. For example:
Set or update them in Settings → Preferences → Personal preferences for Bird. Keep them focused on preferences that are likely to remain useful.

What Bird remembers

What Bird remembers is a list of explicit, learned memories. Bird may save a useful, durable detail after it processes a conversation turn and applies a memory change. This can include a fact or preference Bird learns during a normal chat. Bird confirms this in the chat only after it saves a memory. Memory capture happens in the background, so it should not slow Bird’s response to you.

Review or remove learned memories

Learned memories are private to you. Other members of your workspace, including owners and admins, cannot see or edit them. Open Settings → Preferences → What Bird remembers to view, edit, or delete any learned memory. Remove anything that is no longer accurate or helpful.

Workspace instructions

Use workspace instructions for the guidance a whole lab or organisation should share with Bird: terminology, standing conventions, and team-wide expectations. They are not a place for your personal preferences or private learned memories.
Put a preference in the layer that owns it: write your own preferences, review Bird’s learned memories, and keep team guidance in workspace instructions.
