hi i keep getting bugs when running my chatbot. once i retrain it with the same data (i just delete the latest model so it can be retrained with no changes), it gives the same error but with different intents

in my stories for example i write:

> - story: acad path steps:
> - intent: academics
> - action: utter\_affirm
> - action: utter\_sub\_category

and when i run it: rasa run --debug:

**2021-08-04 09:04:37 DEBUG rasa.core.processor - Received user message ‘/academics’ with intent ‘{‘name’: ‘academics’, ‘confidence’: 1.0}’ and entities ‘[]’**

**2021-08-04 09:09:48 DEBUG rasa.core.policies.ted\_policy - TED predicted ‘utter\_im\_upbot’ based on user intent.**

it predicts a different action. when i retrain it gives wrong action but sometimes with other intents

@ccloud It’s hard to debug the problem with access to only one story. Are there any other stories where `utter_im_upbot` is the next action after intent `academics`?
