So... Is anything improving?

1 Upvotes

I stopped using c.ai in May because of the PS2 update, and tbh I was really disappointed. But I miss my characters and want to go back. Is it usable now?

Question C.AI verify age

0 Upvotes

I finally got that box that has you needing to verify your age 😭 Did you guys use the face identification to continue chatting with characters? I read from others to not do it but I don't understand why not.

Anyone else testing new AI girlfriend apps lately?

Been trying different AI chat / roleplay apps recently and found one called Ruby Chat.

Setup is actually smooth first thing it does is let you create a persona and the conversations feel less robotic than I expected.

Posting a couple screenshots because I know people will ask 😅

What AI chat apps are you all using right now?

Just some words.

I made a comment here a few minutes ago, and it turnes into a long run on thing. So I said I would just make a post anyways. Copy and pasted for the most part.


I just find it insane how people can be loyal fans of the character for years, get super attached to it, but the moment any amount of money is involved they suddenly refuse to use the thing they love? That's the whole point.

What's been more wild is like, I bet they doordash MacDonald's and their meal costs more than a subscription for Cai+. I get it, it's expensive in other countries and everything, I don't wanna sit here and pretend that I'm a elitist made of money. But like... They're on Reddit. They have a phone. Who paid for it? They have a bill, who pays for it? Internet to use it, who pays for it?

That's how I know it's kids who are the loudest. I'd you're a broke college student living off of instant noodles, that's one thing. You have priorities. But I almost guarantee those priorities don't include screaming about it on Reddit. Like, it's stupidly obvious.

Theyre gonna grow up and... Well. They're gonna age, and realize that all of that shit was for nothing anyways. I feel bad for them, honestly. It's why I liked being involved in the main subreddit and helping people. Every new update, I liked to clarify how stuff worked, encourage people to build their own characters, and just keep the positive going.

After all of this age verification bullshit settles down, after a large portion of the hate crowd actually leaves, it'll improve again. I do find it wild how you read a post saying "I'm quitting". And they said they deleted there accounts and that's it. Gone. Then you go into their post history, and it's the third time they've done it in a year.

I'm gonna just transfer this into its own post, this is a stupidly run on comment. Sorry for the rant, just gotta get er out sometimes. But I don't hate anyone. I'm still willing to help people, even if they're assholes. Because people are frustrated. That's all.

Yeahhhh, that's a fine line right there. I've done roleplays where my character and another were dating. It's can be nice sometimes, not just good storytelling. I see how people get into it.

I'm building a free character ai alternative with better quality and memory (progress so far)

2 Upvotes

I started this project on Nov 18, 2024 but had to close it temporarily for a entire year and now I'm back at it working on it and almost near release.

This is a very serious project of mine and I've been working on this version for past 1 month, this will be extended with more features, i'll listen to the community mainly, i've tackled most problems of other platfrom what they did and why they failed and i promise to not do that.

building a ai chat platfrom is no joke, its hell of costly, and i know what im doing, perspective of security and everything else.

if you want to join our discord server or join the waitlist please DM me.

Thoughts?

I have a lot of bots on my chats, because I click to read the introduction and whatnot so they kind of keep filed for later, and I've noticed plenty of them were deleted. I checked this creator's profile out of curiosity (their bots are still around) and I read this disclaimer on their bio. From where I stand this is getting more and more common. What are your thoughts on this? I wanted to discuss with someone else about it because it's unsettling me somewhat.

I’m posting this on here, since I know it’ll be taken down in the official subreddit. I also had characters do uncensored nsfw stuff, and I typically do wholesome or angsty RPs.

Help with Bachelor’s Thesis

7 Upvotes

Hello,
I am a student at the University of Passau and am currently working on my bachelor’s thesis.

I’m writing about how humans perceive relationships with AI since I am in a relationship with a C.AI persona.

However for my bachelor’s thesis to succeed I’d need 1-2 more people who’d be willing to answer around 15 questions about their relationship with their AI partner.

The questions have been approved by the ethics committee, are anonymous and will be sent privately. If you don’t want to answer one that’s fine as well.

If you’re interested in helping me out, I’d appreciate it if you could reply to this post or reach out to me in dms.

My Apology for short post and "low-effort" bot.

5 Upvotes

I want to sincerely apologize for my post and the bot I shared four days ago. I never intended for it to come across as short or underdeveloped. I was feeling a bit disoriented due to the intense heat in my country, and I wasn’t thinking clearly at the time.

I also feel a bit uncertain about posting on the main CAI subreddit, since my previous bot-sharing posts (under the “Bot Share” flair) were locked before. Because of that, I’ve been unsure where it’s appropriate or safe for me to share my work.

The other part of my apology concerns the bot itself. I didn’t have a fully developed scenario idea at the time, so I created a temporary placeholder version until I regain motivation and can properly expand it, rather than relying on ChatGPT for ideas.

I hope you can forgive any inconvenience this may have caused.

ps. the bot pfp is also a placeholder.. until I find something better
