"Branching" chats

Could go like this:

  • question

  • choose model X, choose model Y

  • both models write the answer

  • i choose the one i like

  • go from there further

Branching could happen at any time, multiple times in a chat.

    Surprise! We just shipped branching

  • Turquoise Skybase

    That would be so nice. It would probs save people tokens. Have a lower model to do all the non reasoning task and use the big boys for complexity.

    • Indigo Sandwich

      Yeah, that’s what I would use it for too. For me I could easily get the content of a pdf using gemini flash and then use a bigger model for the real prompt.

  • Salmon Jaguar

    cool idea, but what if it worked retroactively like in chatgpt, you can edit previous messages and then choose different models while editing, then entering will make a new branch with current model (or the same model if you just want to reroll)

  • Indigo Sandwich

    I think this should be done by just saving chats, if you go to edit one it appears as a branch, and the old ones dont dissapear. I like that one better as it has more control.

    • Purple Cupcake

      I totally agree. I made this feature request which is kind of the same thing, but I didn’t feel like it was exactly a “duplicate”. Hopefully some elegant solution is put into place because the bad edit handling is one of the top things holding me back from going all-in on this platform.

    Here is an example of how this could look. Really awesome feature.

  • Ivory Control

    I think this implementation needs a bit rework. This version can be useful for some usecases but; IMO branching, does not meant to be a new chat always. It would be good if we can see branches for our edits. When I edit something, I want to compare my previous for my questions. I like the chatgpt approach on this one.

    Plus, there can be a tree view for better ux that differs t3chat from chatgpt. We can see chat branching on the side click of a button and select a chat to message to continue with etc. This feature may be an unnecessary feature conflicting with the main idea of t3chat but it would be useful IMHO.

  • Yellow Nucleon

    This would be great, or to select some models and pick the response you’d like

  • Blue Raindrop

    Really confused why this isnt a feature yet

  • Copper Canary

    Probably too much but visual tool like obsidian graph would go hard with this.. :)
