Why should I upload content to Flint?
When creating an activity in Flint, you can supplement the AI's knowledge with additional materials. Flint will lean towards using the knowledge provided rather than its vast wealth of training data. Giving Flint content you have vetted and trust can help make sure it will explain concepts accurately and in a similar manner as you would.
Uploading content into a chat or activity will give Flint knowledge about that content. You can provide Flint with readings, quizzes, worksheets, presentations, student work, syllabi, and rubrics to analyze and learn from, guiding its interaction with you and your students. It's important to note, though, that knowledge of uploaded content stays within the activity or chat it has been uploaded to. If you open a new chat or activity, Flint won't have knowledge about previously uploaded content.
What content can I upload to Flint?
You can attach various information as a file (PDF, Word, PowerPoint, CSV, etc.), link, image, equation, code snippet, whiteboard drawing, and/or rich text.
Just make sure if you're providing Flint with links that they are links that are publicly accessible without any account setup needed. For example, a Google Drive link that is public to anyone with a Google account would not be accessible by Flint because Flint doesn't have its own Google account.
How much content can I upload to Flint?
The size limit on each individual piece of uploaded content is about 100 pages double-spaced. You can upload around 16 large files/websites of this size into a singular activity. If your files are smaller, you'll be able to upload more than 16. Each upload cannot exceed the 100 page limit.
The size limit is a natural limitation of how much content state-of-art AI models today can accurately remember, and we're constantly updating Flint to increase this limit.
