# Chat

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Click **New chat**

Click **New chat** on the left side of the screen.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Choose your preferred model

Choose a model from the selection window (see image below), or select **Auto** to let nexos.ai choose the best model for your request based on context and your workspace rules. 

Each model shows context window size, supported inputs, and supported outputs.

Match your task to the model's capabilities. For images, choose models like DALL-E with image output. For text, any text-output model works.

{% hint style="info" %}
Tech details info:

* Context window: measured in tokens, determines how much text can be processed
* Input types: text, image, audio, file compatibility
* Output types: text, image, code generation capabilities
  {% endhint %}
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Begin your conversation

Enter your prompt in the chat interface. Use web search (click **Web search**) to enhance results with current information. Upload files (click the **+** icon) or images to include additional context in your conversation. See example below:

### Advanced options

This is completely optional, if you'd like - you can configure these settings to customize how the AI responds and behaves in your chat.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Max completion tokens

Limits the length of the AI's response.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Temperature

Controls response randomness. Lower values (0.1) produce more focused answers, higher values (0.9) create more **creative** responses.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Top P

Narrows word choices during generation. Lower values make responses more predictable.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### System prompt

Sets the AI's behavior and role before the conversation starts. Acts as instructions for how the assistant should respond.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Compare models

Compare model capabilities & choose models that fit your needs best.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Select models

Choose multiple models you want to test from the model search, and enter your prompt.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Send prompt and compare

Review responses from all selected models side by side
