Steps to reproduce 🕹

System: MacOS (intel) Python 3.10 Branch: master and stable When: Initial try

Current behavior 😯

Problem: Tried on a freshly checkout project. Told it to be a research API. However, it outputs the json is corrupted and it tries to repair it. Which fails sometimes and sometimes not. However the prompt always ends with

NEXT ACTION: COMMAND = Error: ARGUMENTS = 'dict' object has no attribute 'replace'

as in follow:

A common method for achieving this is through the use of SNARKs, Succinct Non-Interactive Arguments of Knowledge. 

These approaches can help to greatly reduce the amount of data required to be transmitted over the untrusted medium, as only the final result of the transaction is transmitted over the untrusted medium.

  Understood! To verify state without actually accessing the blockchain, you would have to rely on external components. One possible solution is to use an Oracle. 

An Oracle is a trusted third party that collects information from the outside world and sends it on the blockchain. It can be viewed as a middleman in the communication and carry out the transaction based on the state of the information.

Another approach will be to use Zero-Knowledge Proofs, ZKPs. 
ZKP allows a user to prove knowledge of a statement or value, without actually revealing the statement or the value.

Can add Information: This happens whenever ChatGPT is not returning a JSON-like response like How may I assist you today? Can you provide me with a task or specific problem to solve?.

I'm having the same issue on a freshly installed copy of stable and master. Also getting "Error: Invalid JSON, setting it to empty JSON now." I've tried making a auto-gpt.json file with brackets inside {}.

same as @NCLDev

I'm having the same issue on a freshly installed copy of stable and master. Also getting "Error: Invalid JSON, setting it to empty JSON now." I've tried making a auto-gpt.json file with brackets inside {}.

By the way it seems like restarting autogpt with a auto-gpt.json file with just brackets {} will fix this for a while but whenever I tell autogpt something the problem seems to reoccur the most as opposed to just typing y or hitting enter.

No, just restarting it works. but after a while it also crashes...

[jimsrc]

Same here!

[birchcode]

Is this related to the jsons being saved in 'auto_gpt_workspace'? My json files in there just get a text description of what json should follow but there's no json.

[evanmcfarland]

Same here. Issue persists after a fresh install and is a common issue over the last couple days. Anyone find a fix yet?

[evmond1]

getting this alot also, running native windows, not mac OS or docker

I've found that this usually happens when using --gpt3only. I guess it's because GPT tends to give less importance to using the JSON format (and the available commands) when the accumulated conversations get big. I guess that makes GPT to pay more attention to what was said in the more recent interactions.

I mean, the problem here is that GPT is not replying in the JSON format that it was instructed to.

To "patch" this behavior, I've seen that adding "\nReply with the JSON format specified above, and properly use one of the available commands above." to the self.user_input helps a lot. It should to added within the start_interaction_loop() method of the Agent class, just after the with Spinner("Thinking... ") statement.
