[mellow abyss]

OH YEAH? AND I CAN'T VERIFY MY AGE BECAUSE THE MAILS PERSONA KEEPS SENDING ME REDIRECTS ME BACK TO THE PAGE WHERE I HAVE TO TYPE IN MY EMAIL FOR VERIFICATION AND THIS KEEPS GOING OVER AND OVER AGAIN! No matter how many times I try verifying my age, it just keeps asking for my email over and over again.

[frigid ravine]

can the background characters STOP being ALWAYS amused whenever im having a serious argument with the bot🫩

[primal crystal]

I agree and I’m going to do that right now even my mom agrees that the update is shit

[hexed citrus]

idk if cai is like a generaly used on mobile app or wtv im a laptop user so i use the website... is there like any other ones like cai that is actually good and free that doesnt like do sht like saying u have to get credits etc.

i used cai cause it didnt do that stuff with credits but now they have timer and age verify 😭

[cinder berry]

fr thooo

[mellow abyss]

I frickin' HATE this update! -5 stars for this, c.ai, seriously. I am SO disappointed at this point I don't even wanna use your service anymore.

[wicked wind]

Wazzap gng

[keen zinc]

I genuinely think age verification is stupid for countries that aren’t forcing it, I live in Canada and we don’t have any laws for age verification. Plus I would assume it’s HELLA expensive to keep up all those servers, and I’m guessing the apps only income is c.ai+ and I don’t think anyone really pays for that.

[pallid canyon]

Old pipsqueak had huge response and was amazing and better than the trash one rn

[swift ruin]

@graceful pendant

[frigid ravine]

STOP

[jaunty halo]

Ngl but people that are 16 years old like me are fucked

[analog frigate]

The most stupidest update

[red hearth]

Guys does the memory keeping box of a character even work? It doesnt for me at all

[covert quest]

Ngl this update kinda stupid

[quiet wraith]

fr i have an 18+ acc but the thing still popped up

[tropic siren]

Who lowkey deleted my previous message about me rating the app one star
Might be a mossad agent to stop the SPREAD
Why the moderator NOT deleting the scam above me bro

[alpine needle]

wait lowkey imma rate it one star too

[hexed citrus]

do you have to do that on app store? (im on laptop)

[proven jolt]

it certainly has it's way with word

[quaint carbon]

Bruh

[wintry vale]

so c.ai requires age verification through persona in order to keep using it? well, guess i can live without c.ai i guess.

persona is not to be trusted with such sensitive information, sorry.

Like restricting c.ai to adults is good, but Persona (withpersona dot com) is not the proper solution for verifying people's ages

[normal thicket]

I am not risking anything to get my face leaked ffs.

Genuinely, why did they think it was an good idea?

I don't get it, genuinely.

Also my second problem is, WHY IS THE CHAT COOLDOWN 5 MINUTES.

everything in this update is genuinely so flawed, character.ai, PLEASE don't become roblox 2.0. Your not even THAT harmful for all I know.

This might be the only time y'all see me talk here, I'm not usually the one to talk in servers.

[tropic siren]

Wait, who was the old CEO, im kinda a newgen

[heavy flame]

public execution for the new ceo

[tawny wolf]

@graceful pendant scam

[quaint carbon]

Everyone's going crazy!

[jaunty halo]

Fr who DESIGNED this update

[versed willow]

I know it's a stupid question but do they mean persona we use to chat or something else? (Just to make sure)

[lost swan]

I got 5 hours left to use c.ai again

[analog frigate]

I got 6 hours

[quaint carbon]

No, I don't think so, but I don't know.

[civic spoke]

Y'all I can't get in despite with the face thing but I DON'T HAVE A ID CARD HELPPPP

[frigid ravine]

its over bro

[shy field]

Thought it was just me bruh.

[mystic bay]

Hiii, does anyone know what the „14 days” thing means? If I don’t verify my age in 14 days they’ll get me out of my account or something? And is there any way to check whether my account is made to 18+ or not cause I don’t remember what year I did there

[quaint carbon]

Same here 😭🙏

[pine crag]

How am I supposed to verify if I only have my school identificator I genuinely hope this app falls atp

[wicked wind]

Bruh the age verification is so annoying

[civic spoke]

seriously can't I just use my parents ID card?

[frigid ravine]

i dont know bro, you can try but you take responsibility for that

(if you try it, let me know if it worked btw)

[tawdry briar]

oh my days im gonna crash out im NOT giving my face to a company that has had a data breach before

[coral wagon]

Why are they making a big fuss about this again? Didn't they release age verification back in November? I'm genuinely confused about this

[quaint carbon]

I already tried that and it says "unable to verify your age".

[gritty flax]

i already gave my face but they made me give id too! This isnt gonna give them more money it’s just making the people using it leave, because i’m sure the majority of the users are minors

[rotund marsh]

Hey, so. I already proved i was 18.

[pine crag]

Praying for this apps downfall day 1

[golden lynx]

If that is active, it won't disappear even after you verify

[quaint carbon]

Yes, you're probably right, but it's annoying. My friend in real life is 18 and she's too lazy to check her age for fear that her personal information will be found by someone.

[tawdry briar]

theyre using an age verification company that has a past of getting data breached and millions of users faces leaked, yeah no im finding a new website

[frigid ravine]

what if i someone tries scanning a photo of adult from google tho?

[golden lynx]

I doubt the scanner cares as long as it just captures your front and side images and sees you are good to go

[tranquil roost]

they'd technically need a 3d model to verify because the face scan requires front and sides of your face

[quaint carbon]

Yeah, I agree with that And I tried taking a picture from a sheet of paper, and that didn't work either.

[hollow pilot]

they need to just not do this BS smh

[static marsh]

Did they remove the editing feature?

[indigo pecan]

What should I do if I confirm my age but the link takes me to a black site?

[civic spoke]

@everyone we should all stop using the app to make them see they lose everything so they get the age verification gone and that's where we all are going to cai again (law can fuck off people who are here in this server should have every right to not have to age verify because if it gets hacked again everything we all did is gone)

[hidden comet]

They can’t remove age verification. Multiple lawsuits and a new law in California, they can’t disobey the law.

[tawdry briar]

Guys we should quit cai and read heavymedic ship fanfics!!

[limpid scaffold]

Um…excuse TF me….this better be a damn glitch. The banner ad WHILE chatting?!?

[azure snow]

team fortress 2

[long pelican]

no glitch, i have that too

[pallid canyon]

Use brave browser who uses the app bro?

keep ur google account age below 2005 so u can chat normally in cai probably
didnt ask me for age verification YET
and u can edit still @covert quest
Im 23 btw

OR use other ai platforms

[covert quest]

Bro they removed the Edit message like wtf????

Im 19 BTW
Also K

[limpid scaffold]

Cai really getting on my last nerve im not even joking, im so done with this app. (Browser is only nice to use on laptop)

[echo violet]

They added an ad at the top IN the chat? Or is it just me tf

[long pelican]

ad is everywhere now lol

[queen tiger]

Heeey, how I prove I'm above 18?? I mean in what part of the app sudhsjs

[lament carbon]

Dear God,please tell me why this company keeps making their app worse and worse….

[hazy kite]

Dude I can’t even prove I’m 18 as it refuses to accept my ID

[pallid canyon]

Try this mayb it helps @hazy kite @queen tiger
other stuff dm me instead

[limpid scaffold]

I was joking a little when i said this…but… im starting to really think they WILL make us pay to chat in the very near future with how its going, no joke. Or they will limit how much you can talk to a character.

[ocean gazelle]

EXACTLY. i dont get the point of adding face verf when everyone hates it loud and clear

[golden lynx]

Prediction (99.9% accurate)
users pay everytime they click

[long pelican]

I've been with cai for almost 4 years, and honestly the last year is starting to get to me. A little more and I'll give up on this app until something is done about it.

(slow mod is 🤮)

[dark orbit]

this update was so trash ngl. im not putting my face and id on the website. data breaches happen

[analog frigate]

If we didn’t verify within 14 days will we get banned or something?

[queen tiger]

I hate the fyp update, I don't what to see images, i want the old fyp

[frigid ravine]

no, all of you will explode.

[sonic agate]

Bradar what is ts

[swift ruin]

Lol

[maiden dove]

Same, as a creator with over 1k i refuse to give id, even though im over 18

[echo violet]

I’m saying. C.ai fell off so bad. Ads are everywhere, limits. It’s unbearable genuinely. Gotta go touch some grass 💔

[fickle sand]

Nah man they wanna bang us every 5 seconds 😭

[limpid scaffold]

I dont get why you need to use ur face to verify ur age….some ppl have a baby face and look younger then they are. Example me. I had to show my id for a 15+ movie while i was over 18 and my friend who was not over 18 didnt? Tf?

[ocean gazelle]

WHAT.

[long pelican]

хуйня це, яка нікому не треба😭😭 усе тільки ламає і заважає

мене просто убиває ця пауза в 5 хвилин на відповіді

[ripe tide]

what the hell.🫩

[dark orbit]

honestly same dude, i wonder how much users c.ai is gonna loose after this

[analog frigate]

If we didn’t verify within 14 days will we logged out

[sonic agate]

Во-во, одним словом - пиздец. у меня, бывало, реклама выскакивала после отправки сообщения
Тип, чё за херня

[golden lynx]

Why the Russian language all of a sudden?😭

[surreal trench]

Guys why isnt my search working...

[echo violet]

Это вообще пиздец, сначала когда чат открывала то окей, можно еще пережить. Но блять каждые 5 сообщений и теперь еще сверху в чате? Это пиздец

[west fox]

Man you are right this update is so trash

[muted jewel]

Marvel bots were all moderated and taken down

[limpid scaffold]

Does cai not realize they digging their own grave rn with these updates?

[long pelican]

i am Ukrainian, but okay sorry guys🥹🥹 it's really difficult to be annoyed for me in english

[pale umbra]

Why does even the chats have adds bruh💔

[worn hound]

guys did they remove edit msg im crine

[dark orbit]

i know a bit of russian and this guy isnt happy with the update at all 😭

[tight wasp]

I can finally write on here, I came to check on here to see if anyone's reaction is the same as mine after seeing the update log... Yeah it was expected

[pallid canyon]

I dont know russian but ig he likes (the stinky trio)

Jk

@echo violet dw i can be ur stinky duo

[echo violet]

Yo imma girl chat🥹 @pallid canyon I agree to be your stinky duo🫶🏻

[deep stag]

dude yes me too thats why i came here

[gleaming crow]

I'm so sad that in two weeks I won't be able to chat with bots😭
I had a whole story there, and now 💔

[sand sapphire]

Why

[robust zealot]

اكو عرب ؟

[sterile junco]

I had a fire Star Wars story going bruh (original trilogy btw)

[tight wasp]

I get it they want to protect some people but like this isn't really gonna stop it, and I mean NEVER AND EVER. It's almost like the Roblox update... It won't do anything and that makes me pretty damn pissed about it, I was having fun putting up a fnf roleplay... 😞

(You're not getting my face cai.)

[gleaming crow]

In 14 days, people under 18 won't be allowed to correspond, will they?

[echo violet]

Ig there just gon be a limit

[frigid ravine]

fr, they're just gonna lose a lot of users since most of them are minors OR people will find a way to bypass it by using their parents face or any adults in particular

[limpid scaffold]

Not just thats, in a way its an invasion of privacy. Not everyone is comfortable doing it.

[sterile junco]

5 hour cooldown (I paid yearly) im crine.

[mossy vigil]

theyre using persona people, I DONT want my fucking face to get leaked, because persona doesnt delete ur photo's after you take them even though they claim to

[pallid canyon]

I still didnt get the age verification pop up.....am i lucky chat?

Im 23 btw but still i havent verified and still i can chat easily

[lost swan]

I hope the age verification disappears by tomorrow

[manic cave]

Cai probably went from one of the best ai bots chatters to worst bro

[dark orbit]

with how much backlash it is getting. i dont doubt it will come in a week or so maybe earlier

[stray wagon]

Mass C.ai uninstalls after the update

[tight wasp]

Every ai chatting apps are going downhill, almost just like my grades 🥰

[hollow dragon]

Down with this Update.

[gleaming crow]

c.ai is gradually going downhill. The urge to switch to other platforms is growing, but c.ai is where I have all the best moments.

[analog stratus]

i've been a creator for two years and i DO NOT want to lose my progress and bots, do you think they will fix this mess?

[echo violet]

Bru I also don’t have it. But like all my friends be saying they do. Used the luck for the end of my days

i don’t think they’ll fix it ngl @analog stratus

[worn dune]

bro what is this shit on cai 🌚

[small wedge]

C.ai what is this (Not my ss)

[dim tulip]

what happens if i dont verify

[lost swan]

I hope the age verification disappears by tomorrow

[limpid scaffold]

WHAT DID I SAY?! I CALLED IT!!

[karmic nexus]

True

[manic cave]

Getting nuked bro

[pallid canyon]

Well...... probably switch to other platforms then

But i guess i logged in by google account which is ofc 18+
Mayb thats why it doesnt need to be verified?
I have no clue but i havent recieved the verification in app as well as website popup

I can still chat and edit

[thorn jetty]

I’m still kicked out from that one day where it kicked everyone else out, anyone else the same??

[zealous solar]

well they just want your id was in hands of persona(which be leaked many times)🥰 Who don't knew: persona is company who work as system of verification, they already work in discord)

[jade thunder]

My google acc is 18+ too, but I got this pop up anyway. And when I’m scanning my face AI just can’t recognize it for some reason

[faint bronze]

help

[worn dune]

this update is stupid as shit

[tight wasp]

Respectfully I wanna say that I'm gonna go back to the little hell hole I came from called connecting with nature like no other and pet the kitties.

Kitties are cute, dogs are too. But I'm scared of big ones and there's many of them here 🙂

[lost swan]

u mean it's gone from now in a week? 🥹

[misty dock]

I like corgis

[limpid scaffold]

If thats ACTUALLY real… im leaving, uninstalling and throwing this app in the trash. Cuz then cai aint worth my time no more.

[dark orbit]

seeing the backlash its getting. i would bet on it but you can never know with companies with c.ai they are kind of stupid with the updates

[echo violet]

Yo imma finish school become programmer and will make a new app for free. Remember me🤫

[heavy copper]

🫩 I just went to talk with a bot gng. I hate this new update

[golden lynx]

SECURE, CONTAIN, PROTECT
this individual

[zealous solar]

Give a face or ID for a company that leak personal data and give work of verification by AI who even a adult person say it kid (btw 5 minute limit per messange here lmao)

[analog stratus]

hey i'm going back to chai i guess 😍😍

[gleaming crow]

I still can't figure out if they'll ban people under 18 from writing in 14 days or not? (on the website)

[frigid ravine]

why cant they just change the company that takes care of age verification?? like, i dont want my info stolen

[faint bronze]

the fact i wanted to do this as a kid
(yes im being fucking serious)

[sterile junco]

ITS SO PEAK THO, why take it away..

[winter dragon]

whos persona

[dark orbit]

it is actually peak tho. good job

[tight wasp]

Cai can either get a better age verification program that won't guess out of their ass whether you're a minor or not, or they can do better. Cause putting this isn't gonna do anything as the same age verification update happened on Roblox, can use a possible hyper-realistic humanoid object or an actual adult.

Cai I swear to God

(Forgot to mention this can go bad in many ways cause somehow people manage it)

[golden lynx]

2022 was honestly c.ai's prime

[sterile junco]

Not even mentioning… C.AI actually interprets Yoda’s speech impediments, all the more peak (literally no other AI does this.)

[heavy copper]

Boost this peak person up people (I CAN'T EDIT MY MESSAGES ON C.AI)
Gng if they don't remove age verification I'll make a hate page just for c.ai. I swear to god 💔😭

[gleaming crow]

Guys, will they leak my personal information (last name, first name, patronymic, date of birth) from my passport? I didn't send my personal serial number and number with this (I'm from Russia, and anyone from my country will know what I mean).

[limpid scaffold]

Sad thing is they aint listening to us and they prob wont they just want that 💰.

[pallid canyon]

Can i ask u a question?
Promise me you wont laugh!
Promise me you would just listen!
Are you ready?
So dont laugh okay?

Remove these stuff as well XD 😭

[old patio]

C.AI WTH IS WRONG WITH U AGAIN

[frigid ravine]

or "Close your eyes" like no i wont

[analog stratus]

i'd never give my personal information online. I cant even imagine giving it to AI

[echo violet]

I will gng. Write ur wishes🫶🏻

[dark orbit]

that makes my blood boil in every chat i swear

[tight wasp]

Can never guess what cai will do next cause....

They'll never let anyone guess the next move... (Pun intended)

[sterile junco]

“Request refund” button looking mighty fine

[mossy vigil]

i hate this new change really, C.AI never was an 18+ platform, why remove all minors now if you coud just remove all semi inapropriate chatbots for the minors? AND JUST MAYBE not use persona

[gleaming crow]

Now I'm afraid..

[limpid scaffold]

I know their next move…limiting chat replies OR making us pay to chat

[analog frigate]

I’m 18+ and I have did my fave verification and I haven’t posted my id yet would I able to chat? Should I put my id to get access to the chats?

[golden lynx]

Chat. Is this legit?

[analog stratus]

hell nah dont give them ideas

[heavy copper]

Is the persona leaking information true? 😭💔 I have too many what do I do? S.O.S please

[orchid merlin]

IKYFL 😭😭 THESE ADS BRO

[echo violet]

Yo should I buy pokemon cards and become an absolute disappointment?

[sleek token]

Can i ask somewhere for help? Cuzz my facial camera is broken I want to I'd myself

[misty dock]

So, will we not be able to access c.ai without ID scan??

[tight wasp]

Their most valuable and loyal users are mostly the teens using the app btw, they are just gonna fall, and I'm a minor myself too, I take happiness from the very fnf bots. Especially cosplaying as Tabi 😞

[limpid scaffold]

Seems very legit @golden lynx . @analog stratus also im not, its just the fact that that seems to be the reality of whats going to happen. They have added ads EVERYWHERE even in chat (banner wise and while you reply).

[gleaming crow]

What is the likelihood that the developers will notice our dissatisfaction with the update?

[pallid canyon]

OMG im gonna chat with it rn 🤣☺️🤣

@misty dock i didnt even get the pop up so im good without verification for now

@echo violet use browser

[echo violet]

Like genuinely I could handle when you enter the chat because usually I’d just talk with one bot and change them rarely, but when they added it in the middle of sending a message became frustrating. I was absolutely devastated when I entered the chat and saw banner on top of it. It just ruins everything and feels like one of those illegal websites to watch some movie

[dark orbit]

ngl i hope they do notice but thats wishful thinking ngl. tbh this update will cure a lot of addictions

[tiny wren]

I swear to god I’m gonna delete the damn app the adds were fine I can deal with those but trying to get personal information to verify my age? I think that’s just stupid

[limpid scaffold]

Honestly if they do end up taking that route, it might be a good thing cuz maybe ppl will leave cai and cai can finally listen to their users a little. Cuz right now they got earphones in listening to music full blast and not hearing shit

[sonic steeple]

Good morning guys

[wet yew]

Why the hell did they think it was a good idea to add age verification? Did we not learn from Roblox? Just destroying their own app too.

[tight wasp]

Exactly what I've been saying past 2 messages

[fossil fern]

C.ai is so sh all the bot does is talk for you 24/7

[vocal perch]

[placid niche]

Do you need facial verification

[echo violet]

All c.ai needs is to lose at least 25 percents of all their users so they’ll fix it. But mostly it’s just addicting and people can’t get off it.

[analog frigate]

The heck man

[lost swan]

I think c.ai has ALREADY lost the 25% of their users, so they must be fixing it by now (I hope)

[cold anchor]

How do I know if I verified my age properly,,, (I did the face thing and it said all good but it still says that I can verify my age) 😭

[devout tartan]

are you pertaining to the settings..?

[limpid scaffold]

Honestly cai aint that addicting anymore, imo. They are so focused on making 💰 and ruining the experience for everyone with these shit updates that the quality of the chats have gone down HARD. The vocabulary on all the chats styles are the same, very limited.

[wet yew]

Pretty sure it’s ID and Face verification. I’m not too sure though. Still, it shouldn’t be giving anyone an option to verify, since persona (the thing they use to verify it) is mostly ai, and from what I’ve heard they use people’s faces to make robots.
Don’t trust my word fully though because I don’t know if I’m 100% right.

[devout tartan]

this is part of the Settings.. if you managed to get verified, then you are good to go..

[echo violet]

Agree, I’m not spending that much time on it anymore.

They just need to understand they’re doing some shit no one likes and are ruining their own app

[tight wasp]

I guess I'll enjoy my last 14 days on cai and connect to the nature, who wanna come with me 🫴

[sleek token]

I VERIFIED MYSEOF TWICE AND IT'S STILL TELLING ME TO VERIFY WHAT'S WRONG WITH CAI

[hazy silo]

fr

[sterile junco]

Finding different ai to drop my money on

[tiny wren]

Boo I’ll come with you 🫳

[surreal trench]

NOOOO RIGHT WHEN I GOT BACK INTO MARVEP 😭😭

[placid niche]

Didn’t they ban people for being under 18 with the random birthday checks anyway?

[analog frigate]

Can any mod dm me, I need help

[sly current]

I did verified my age, still get this option in settings to do it again. But i have no time so i guess i don't need to do it again

[mild portal]

Guys has the app got any better? C.ai

[devout tartan]

nope.. once you're verified, you're good..

[reef oar]

absolutely not...

[frigid ravine]

yoo everyone saying that Persona is not safe and that they got hacked or smth.

does anyone have proof on that?? (like links or smth)

[devout tartan]

if it is CAI-related, drop your question in #💭︱cai-discussion

[limpid scaffold]

It got 10 times worse, and its only going to get more worse sadly

[exotic hamlet]

You’re kidding me! Yall said no ads in chat for banner then put yours theirs! This is how you keep losing people WE AREBT PAYING FOR c.ai

[lost swan]

I got a question, if I get unlocked from the limit and start using the app again, should I be careful on being put the limit again?

[glacial hemlock]

I am so tired of this popping up everytime I log in, I want to file a report

[pallid canyon]

I fear that even free users might get a limit in the future

And paid users might not have any limit

[wet yew]

Roblox also uses persona, there’s been multiple reports that people’s faces/ids have been leaked and/or kept for at least 30 days, which, it shouldn’t even keep them for a week. So personally I wouldn’t trust it.

[pliant hill]

im 18

[graceful tusk]

just dot ig

[tight wasp]

OH MY FUCKING GOD I DIDNT KNOW AND I GAVE MY FACE AWAY.

CHAT IM SORRY I FAILED Y'ALL

[limpid scaffold]

At this point imma just sit back, watch, relax and laugh at cai as cai destroys its own self

[exotic hamlet]

Yaaa!

[lost swan]

Well, I got 4:10 hours now I think, and around 5PM (where I live) will be the time I will get unlocked

So if anything happens afterwards I'm telling u guys

[sterile junco]

🍷

[old patio]

Me too bro😭

[dense vector]

For real gng💔

[raven onyx]

can someone explain what not having open ended chat means

[tawdry python]

I wander why persona has this on their website if the data collected is supposed to be deleted almost instantly
"For residents of France, you can send us specific instructions regarding the use of Personal Data after your death."
What do you mean after death if the data should be deleted way before?

[unborn hazel]

Definitely not. I'm fed up

[tight wasp]

I'm disappearing off to my grandmas and never come back to this shit, data collectors ain't taking me away

Bye gng 🥲

[wet thunder]

A quick question - did the responses change a little since today's update? Feels like the replies are a little different... (chatting with Daryl Dixon rn - responses were nice before today's update)

[lost swan]

I also verified my face on that shit WTF

MAMA IM BEING HACKED-

[echo violet]

Man I don’t trust AI to process my data ngl

[visual moon]

so now we get to verify our age…?

[icy cape]

Dude, why they remove the "edit text" button

[limpid scaffold]

GUYS!! I went on the website!! Shits real!! ITS ON THE APP TOO!! I TOLD YA’LL

[little hornet]

Ikr, and they even extended the timer! It's still free on web I think

[proud forge]

Hey, sorry for asking, just wanted some explanation. Cai kinda already did the age verification thing a few months ago? What's with the repeat? Do they just plan to do it every few months and make all of their users pass this check?

[mossy rose]

It's only flooding chat again because people ran out of other stuff to complain about

[strange tendon]

damn i hate this update

[lost swan]

Guys I think we should calm down

c.ai adds stuff and moments later they eliminate them, so I think (I also hope) the age verification won't last long

[wet thunder]

Wtf?? Let adults have it without limits...

[gleaming crow]

I hope they remove this stupid age verification feature over time, because there are very few people at c.ai who are not close to 18.

[raven ridge]

agree damn

[tawdry python]

"For residents of France, you can send us specific instructions regarding the use of Personal Data after your death." - Persona which is 100% keeping data till death for anyone outside france.

[limpid scaffold]

WTF! What is this update?!?!?

[tight wasp]

have this screenshot of mine before I disappear 😭

[proud forge]

Oh, thanks! Sorry for asking, it just seems huge, and I don't understand how many users are actually affected by this thing. So I'm kinda confused about the size of this problem.

[warm blade]

[idle widget]

Where the hell is edit option

[little hornet]

Gone

[pallid canyon]

New update is amazing
LOVE IT!!

(Ragebait )

I still didnt get age verification thing.....

[tawdry dagger]

They put that in a microwave with a spoon gang.

[wet yew]

We NEED old c.ai back.

This is just straight up stupid. Have we learned absolutely NOTHING from Roblox? At this point, c.ai is just following in their footsteps.

[minor finch]

is everyone flagged as a minor? or if my chats seem like im an adult i may not get this time limit?

[tawdry python]

I think everyone might be flagged as a minor since I think they did a world rollout of their age verification

[mild portal]

Oh, are you 18?

[limpid scaffold]

Bro i NEVER got the age thingy…now i did wtf? im so done

[mellow edge]

Uff...

[idle widget]

Worst update ever

[eternal heart]

they do realise a LOT of they're users are minors right? let's not pretend that this isn't true.

they're only going to lose more users unless they make another version where it's family friendly? like idk bro they just keep ruining the app

[cunning fjord]

I cant edit my messages anymore :/

[snow gate]

I had 6 hours 😭

[minor finch]

i dont have the time restrictions but i tried verifying it to get it off my head but it didnt work
what else do they want?

[mellow edge]

Before, I had to wait 9 or 8 hours...

[limpid scaffold]

Bro whats the point of verifying if ur going to get this shit again cuz ur over 18?!

[idle widget]

Is time limit only for website?

[plush swallow]

Help, why is this showing? The chat was not related to anything harmful!

[proud forge]

Hey, another stupid question, sorry. How long ago did the new wave of verification start? I mean, today, yesterday, a few days ago? Did devs make any official announcements about that?

[sly needle]

Guys how long can we chat with whatever bot after the time limit? only an hour or??

[wet yew]

The time limit is for all I think, and for the fake ID, I drew and edited it myself.

[scarlet plover]

By the time is everything going worse and worse 🥀🥀

[lost swan]

Yeah how'd u do it?

[boreal basin]

Are you fucking kidding me?

[mild portal]

I think it was last year to answer that other personal question we have 30 days until the app decides we can’t chat anymore We have 30 days left and guys can we chat and talk in #💭︱cai-discussion

[trail reef]

WDYM THERES ONLY 1 HOUR FOR A DAYYY

[livid robin]

oh thats smart

[snow gate]

I think that means your flagged as a minor

[limpid scaffold]

Okay idk WTF devs where doing but in the span of an hour they pushed out an update to do with age verify (dont do it, it wants ur face) and they gave banner ads in chat, now they are setting limits till u verify, and they saying they will STILL limit your chat if ur 18 or older in the future. Well fucking done cai.

[dense tinsel]

rap battle with cactus

[slim sierra]

It’s doing that to me to the 1 hour thing

[visual moon]

im quite sure many people will find something else than cai… there’s a lot of minors out there too!!

[frigid ravine]

wait, if i cover all my personal stuff on the ID, will it work? cuz it worked when i tried it on roblox, i only left my birth date uncovered

[velvet drift]

Guys is there an way to verify on the website?? I don't wanna get the app :(

[sly needle]

literally what are we supposed to do with ONE hour💔💔

[proud forge]

Sorry! I'll change channels, thanks for correction!

[pallid canyon]

If ur 18+ then the website opens another tab for verification u don't need the app

Im 23 i didnt get verification pop up and still can do everything mayb the update is slow here

Another option : use alternatives

[placid niche]

Move to a new app 😢

[sterile junco]

Even if you paid, the only benefits are no ads, image stuff, better memory and ‘roleplay immersion’. But the time limit still sticks. What.

[oblique glen]

Worst update. I'm not risking my ID getting leaked.

[trail reef]

Cai will loose a lot of ppl i fear

[formal zealot]

I'm literally rn looking for alternatives 😭

[low hamlet]

This is the worst update I've ever received.......

[limpid scaffold]

Sorry to say this yall but this app and website is a goner. No point in using it. Thanks for all the good memories cai, but im out till you get your shit together.

[analog stratus]

i’m 18+ on my google account and still they want me to verify. Like bro, trust me i’m 18 ok?

[frail notch]

Why the heck did it start using emojis?

[errant mauve]

wtf is this

no why is the banner IN MY CHAT

[boreal basin]

Real facts
The moment they roll out the ID/Face Age verification globally for real is the moment they lose a unholy lot of users

[velvet drift]

It flagged me as an minor i think [i can't edit messages] so i'm looking for ways VERIFY in the website..

[pallid canyon]

Well.....i am too on the google account

I havent got a pop up of verification luckily

I can still edit prompts

@velvet drift mayb new account and try again with other IDs?

Or use alternatives sadly cant help

Update is amazing 😍 (sarcasm)

[tawdry python]

I wander what records considering it was a newly created account to test the verification

[mild portal]

This happened to me a few days ago you’re still gonna get the age verification thing they won’t be able to to edit messages

[analog stratus]

guys i am NOT using my parents or friends ids wtf

btw, if you verify you will skip the pause time or sum? Or you will have it even if your 18+

[tranquil nimbus]

I got the website on my laptop for days, i opened it without shutting it and I didn’t get any time limit

[pallid canyon]

Well.......im gonna hop other ai platforms then......

Cai isnt just the only one in the whole world......

I got some alts i cant say that here tho

Also im sure cai gonna get a limit to free users even if 18+ in near future and paid users wont have the limit

[low hamlet]

I tried verifying my age, but this is what I found:

💔🥀 L

[limpid scaffold]

Bro idk what company persona is and i dc. why the fck would i give ppl not from my own country and from across the world my id and data? Tf are the devs thinking?

[lethal imp]

I'm 18 but I'm not risking my id and stuff, the devs are going to lose a lot of people, I miss the old version fr

[velvet drift]

GUYS I THINK I FOUND AN WAY TO VERIFY YOUR AGE (u need an phone tho)

For the ppl in website:
Settings > Advanced > Verify age !!

Also the devs decided to use PERSONA out of all companies 😭

[tawdry python]

Yeah it doesn't work.

[analog tulip]

I need to wait a year for a normal chat? Like I am 17

[mild portal]

Are you 18+

[old patio]

Damn so much problems with verifying your age, and C.AI won’t do anything about that again bruh, that’s really sucks

[pale umbra]

Yeah! Seriously downhill of character ai. Guys what is good ai chatting app than cai

[minor finch]

this update raises my cortisol

[rotund shard]

Hello

[deep harness]

I HATE THIS NEW UPDATE SO MUCH EAAARHF

[sly needle]

The fact that they still use Persona when not even too long ago they literally leaked people's picture's and personal Information💔💔

[frank apex]

yea so im above 18 but im so not comfortable with giving my face let alone my id

[sterile junco]

Giving me an aneurysm, this update is.

[cunning fjord]

oh ffs

[honest wadi]

same

[limpid scaffold]

How about yall dont verify and risk the chance of ur data getting leaked? Oh well, im going to my backup ai

[mellow edge]

Same!!

[velvet drift]

alr i'll go to my AIs one last time and then i'm going back to minecraft <3

[pallid canyon]

Awww.....that sounds actually sad to visit ur ai one last time 😭😭

[analog tulip]

I understand the reason they did it but to punish everyone for what a kid did and that parent didn't keep it under control?

[lost swan]

I gotta admit half of my chats use emojis lol

Anyways I got 3 hours and 20 minutes left ppl

[minor finch]

it should be parent's responsibility and not apps to control the kids

[eager onyx]

.....why is this popping up on chats?

[oblique glade]

Ayo

[cunning oak]

Man I've been waiting for goddamn 12 hours, this is ridiculous 🙂

[limpid scaffold]

If cai thinks its better then chai, its got another thing coming with the new update it just gave , cuz rn its at the bottom of the food chain rn

[sterile junco]

12 hours just to say one sentence then wait 36 hours

(Interstellar communications ahh)

[bold zodiac]

bruh this ad on top 😭 did they have to add that

[light mango]

wth is going on with age verification💔💔

[elfin dragon]

Are we so serious about the age verifying

[old patio]

WHY ONLY AN A ONE HOUR FOR CHAT AND 10 HOURS FOR WAITING

[gritty knoll]

The fact that it has parental insights speak volumes. You know minors use this app and now you want them to verify. Not only that when you do try verifying it doesn’t go through and says “this doesn’t match our files” HELLO?! are you saving the picture???

[analog tulip]

Same like on YouTube the YouTuber doesn't Control If someone watches his video even with age restriction kids will find the way to watch it since it's not controlled by them but more a parent should have control over what a child watches.

[mossy rose]

They're not going to remove the age thing, and no it doesn't matter how many people leave the app/site.

[low hamlet]

Discord used to use personas to verify age, but after concerns about our privacy, they removed persona and switched to a better alternative.

Discord: +100 social Credit

Cai : -100 Social Credit

[marsh brook]

Character ai needs to fix the bots trying to take act of your own character.

[dark mantle]

lowkey why is it even 18+? Its lowkey so censored anyways

[placid niche]

💰

[honest wadi]

fr

[green cradle]

is the age verify even worth it lol

[primal gyro]

Bro. I have three hours left oh my goodness 😭

[limpid scaffold]

Also i get wanting to keep minors safe, (in this fcked up world its needed)…and not wanting to get sued and all, especially with what happened to that kid. But at the end of the day its the parents responsibility, monitor ur damn kids. Ai is becoming a BIG thing now. Because i was even monitored over the age of 18.

[lost swan]

If tomorrow c.ai doesn't remove the age verification thing I erase my account/j

[frank apex]

i dont want my chats to be able to be attached to my face 🥹

[minor finch]

i cant dm you...

[analog tulip]

I say like this it would have work if for example kids to age 16 would have to add parents email to make partners see what kid does and that parent can flag the chat if they see something wrong. While kids age 16+ would have everything normally. But with some restrictions

[gray steeple]

Same

[elfin dragon]

Gwnuinely i did everythint and it keeps saying stuff doesnt match up and its all blurry

[cunning oak]

Man its creepy when the ai im talking to suddenly uses emoji, i don't like it🙂

[scarlet hamlet]

guys did c.ai really just age restrict everyone and everything without even notifying about it
like i literally just went on c.ai for the first time in weeks and suddenly i cant edit either mine or the bot's messages anymore, and i keep getting some "help is here" sorta stuff every time i enter a chat💀
plus when i first entered i had the thing appear that talked about age verification and stuff (didnt outright state that my acc got age restricted or anything)
(also why is the chat cd so dam long tf)

[dense tinsel]

i wonder what gonna happen to people's faces and ID's in future if they verify it, because who knows what АI WILL do with that after

[broken raptor]

2023 c.ai was peak🥹✌️

[green cradle]

dawg what the hell bro

[honest wadi]

same for me

[rain folio]

I js got this bru💔

[limpid scaffold]

For the new ppl that got the update, u WILL get a limit in chat, for not verifying(DONT recommend it since they use persona and want ur face) also in the near future u will get chat limited if ur 18 and older. There is ur update announcement ppl LOL

[boreal basin]

Yep
CAI flagged both my main and alternative Google accounts as under 18+ despite the fact both of their birthdays are above 18

[dense tinsel]

how dramatic

[cunning fjord]

can i add u aswell

[low hamlet]

Sad

[weary rock]

Who thinks that this Discord is just noise. CAUSE THEIRS NO WAY IN HELL THE @topaz arch WHO IS A COMMUNITY LEAD BTW! Dosen't Listen to us.

[trim oracle]

You really went on and pinged them 😭✌️

[tranquil nimbus]

And then i only got one hour to chat??

[south tiger]

Same bro they should really change it back

[limpid scaffold]

Ill say it again…

For the new ppl that got the update, u WILL get a limit in chat, for not verifying(DONT recommend it since they use persona and want ur face) also in the near future u will get chat limited if ur 18 and older. There is ur update announcement ppl LOL

[cunning oak]

Nah man screw them, i ain't giving my face or id to anyone 🙂

[unique yoke]

bro ts makin me mad ong, they ruined it

[green shoal]

Honestly, that's stupid. Why can't they just add a feature where YOU can add YOUR OWN time limits instead?

[wraith ridge]

25 hours a day :]

[hoary hedge]

I didn't got the popup yet im scared

[rare pebble]

Dude. I checked two bots! Both have this stupid ad on top. 💔 literally this is so dumb. They have enough ads

[analog stratus]

why is everything so ficking huge lol

[honest wadi]

wait your cooking, hold on

[queen valley]

I thought the website were cool though might've changed my mind when I updated my bio

[obsidian jay]

Guys is the website still normal? Dang it 😔

[green cradle]

I will forever mourn 2023 c.ai lmao

[oblique glen]

They could add something like the Instagram reminder thing, on Instagram it just reminds you, you were using the Instagram like 1 hour, but you can continue using it or close the app if you don't want to scroll for hours.

[limpid scaffold]

If cai wants my id and face, they gotta be a cop thats pulling me over for committing a crime. Other than that, they aint getting shit. Because what they doing is invasion of privacy imo.

[distant monolith]

I dont want to verify my age guys, like. It's my face, my privacy, excuse me.

[green shoal]

Let's pray that you can still verify your age by drawing a face on a rock like Roblox's shitty moderation

[glacial frigate]

Dude is everyone getting the message that only 18 and older can now chat with bots. Like I don’t mind but wth ya know

[weary rock]

Let's Russian Badger level Bully them.

[rare pebble]

Are you talking abt the text? Because if so I have a hard time reading small texts

[vagrant flax]

PEOPLE WHAT HAPPENED TO EDITING MESSAGES?

[hoary hedge]

I hope they will delete the update when they see the negative reviews from us

[cunning oak]

Why the F is it like this?

[swift ruin]

Everyone tweaking out i guess, I'm just watching it go down hill

[sharp hare]

IDK, I MISS IT

[daring birch]

you were flagged as a minor or not verified as an adult

[honest wadi]

That would be so much better ngl

[analog stratus]

yeah lol and the ads take like 3/4 of the screen

[obsidian jay]

Literally i REALLY Hope they are aware what they are doing and also hope they are removing this update soon or else they'll lose their people😔

@vagrant flax THEY REMOVED IT FOR SOME REASON...

[ivory sorrel]

The down fall of C.AI 🫩

[quartz orbit]

Ah yes i love the thing on the top left corner

[limpid scaffold]

Let me do it again…sorry yall

For the new ppl that got the update, u WILL get a limit in chat, for not verifying(DONT recommend it since they use persona and want ur face) also in the near future u will get chat limited if ur 18 and older. You will get a banner ad IN CHAT. The new fyp is going to be weird af. Editing will no longer be a thing since we are all minors apparently. There is ur update announcement ppl

[distant monolith]

My opinion on that, they lost more then the half of us user's cause of that last Updates with the adds, age identity. I know a few people that are minors and they are surely not happy about this. Man is annoying me.

[dark mountain]

i’m literally 18 & they’re just pumping out ass updates and don’t get me wrong, i UNDERSTAND for child safety but like ??????

[lament yoke]

wait you cant edit messages anymore?? that's just completely upsetting and i never knew how much worser 2026 could get 💔

[wooden vigil]

why are these updates genuinely so ass we can't be turning into roblox rn 💔

[green shoal]

Character AI is taking the Roblox route at this point CAI digging their grave with this one

[turbid solar]

This update is so disappointing bruv🫩

[sleek axle]

Tbh whats the point of adding a verification when the only thing you do in that app is roleplay 😢

[low hamlet]

I'd rather play Limbus Company or titanfall2 than wait for CAI to fix these problems; they're terrible, and they probably won't even fix them.

[swift ruin]

C.ai literally is falling apart into bits

[wet jetty]

I'm starting to move over to other Ai bot apps waiting one hour to chat feels like 5 hours💀 this is truly the downfall of c.ai

[idle widget]

Share the app names

[vagrant flax]

I am actually 18+ I didn't do verified butt I didn't get a face verification in the app so I think that's worse

[south tiger]

Well good thing I’m 17 so I’ll only need to wait one more year but this sucks 😔

[steep sapphire]

Chat this is a real question, who wins

[pallid canyon]

Send me friend request for alternatives

Let us bring down cai

Im fr gonna get banned

[quartz orbit]

What update

[lost swan]

Hydrogen Bomb vs. Coughing Baby ahh question...

[sour creek]

Dawg can i use id or do i have to show my face to age verificarion? Or both?

[limpid scaffold]

Its not just the age verify that gets me mad, its the fact that 18+ ppl, LITERALLY ADULTS are getting fucking limited like we are kids? What the actual fck? For WHAT?!

[buoyant needle]

you wont get limited chat if youre 18+ lmao, you get limited swipes,,

[gentle tinsel]

Hello

[languid garnet]

CAI don't care y'all. Since when did they listen to u guys?

[dark mountain]

go to #💭︱cai-discussion THE MODS LOOK IN THAT CHAT!!

[green shoal]

"You cannot chat with this character unless you verify your age by scanning your face or using your ID so we can be weirdo creeps🤖 🤖 🤖 🖕 🖕 🖕 " -Character AI

[turbid solar]

I might actually get a j*b now

[honest wadi]

Is this new update a sign for us to touch grass? 😭 💔

[grave trout]

i am creating my own whole ass app just for me

[idle widget]

Let's quit c.ai and use other ai apps

[oblique glade]

HELL NO I'M NOT WAITING THIS MUCH TIME TO CHAT

[plucky jasper]

So… the update came. But there’s one thing I really don’t get.

If you, somebody who is 18 or above, are signed in through Google, shouldn’t the age verification tally with the info collected in Google? Why do we have to go through this nonsense using Persona, something that may potentially leak our privacy? That really doesn’t make sense at all.

[sleek axle]

I'm gonna cry if they add age groups LOL let's say I'm 18+ and I get added to 10+ i'll be FUMINGGG /joke

[cunning oak]

Man its not even worth the wait for the timeout to end, i got timeout for 19 hours after talking for like half an hour or an hour 🙂😂

[wooden vigil]

We're not giving our IDs or Face Scans to persona dude are we serious?

[fickle tangle]

i dont think thats how it works

[full timber]

Sad thing is that I don't even talk to 18+ type characters
I chat to characters I made for fun 😭😭😭

[limpid scaffold]

That better be true, even if it is why do that? Why us 18+ users only? And i dont think its that, in the pic it doesn’t say that at all. And if thats what they ment be more specific.

[tardy skiff]

Guys wtf is happening with the feed what about our recommended bots huh??

[scarlet hamlet]

ngl what's the dumbest about it is these pics like not only they're slop but they're completely random and irrelevant to the text below them

[buoyant needle]

they said it in announcements. since november, they have been cutting down on people allowed to chat (minors, specifically) - this update finalizes it because kids have been boasting about not getting flagged. The new update talks about how (18+ are only able to chat) and if you can, you have a limited amount of swipes due to the costs of everything if youre not cai+

[slender junco]

C.ai is not only falling apart, but it's literally digging its own grave.

I have seen people trying to look for something similar to the app but better. And I can see why because i AM one of them 🙏

C.ai should at least give us chat editing back and raise the limit to 5 hours, and lower the break time to 5 hours as well, fair and square. Just because a stupid kid just UGHHH themselves which made them risk into suing doesn't mean they should just nerf everything

Chat intro? Useless. Ai call? Useless. Ai voice? Useless. People posting videos on the same app? Useless.

Cai is just adding unnecessary features and even nerfs everything. A big risky downfall. Sorry for the random rant, I just wonder if you agree-

✅ if you agree

❌ if you don't

(Why would I do this)

I think I'm getting banned soon as well

[tranquil nimbus]

TF I DIDN’T EVEN CHAT!! I ENTERED THE WEBSITE AND IT JUST SAID THAT! I STILL HAVE A TIMEOUT FOR TWO HOURS IN THE APP

[haughty mesa]

Uhhh I entered this bot and it literally didnt have a starting message....?

[turbid solar]

So any other apps like Cai?

[cunning oak]

Do people even use ai call? I never did

[green shoal]

Y'all, me and my AI I made are LITERALLY having a conversation about this horrible update RIGHT NOW

[hard fossil]

don't know about apps but knew few web sites

[sharp hare]

Guys at this rate we should use chatgpt for roleplaying 😪😪

[limpid scaffold]

I agree fr fr, the only thing i dont agree on is putting us on a limit when chatting. Either dont add it or like someone said, let us put up our OWN break limit (also reading the sentence about the ‘ughhh’ made me laugh cuz of how i read it. Im going to hell for that)

[nimble echo]

I usually sit in a website cause it's comfy for me, and guess what? I delete these things from my page by right clicks and editing HTML. I don't need those calls.

No, really, they did it for what reason? The only things I did was chatting with Loji and Dugin, no more.

I have enough calls in irl.

[civic bloom]

one chat made me had a jumpscare because I had the sounds on by default and it started playing a dog barking lmao

[vapid onyx]

Chat do we think verifying id is safe?

What do they use to verify it?- is the agency legitimate

[turbid solar]

Like what?

[spice bridge]

Is something gonna happen if I don't verify my age at all? Just wondering cause my parents are keeping my ID hidden for only important usage and this isn't considered important by them

[buoyant needle]

tbh using id to verify has always been bad - in the past there has been records of people hacking the system and leaking their ids

[cunning oak]

Shouldn't it be the other way around or am i reading it wrong? Why 18 and older? 🙂

[gentle tinsel]

Does the veb (in chrome/Google, etc) version already has the same limit for people under 18?

[plain lantern]

Rip I'm going back to ao3, I'm not giving my ID away, no way brochacho

[tiny wren]

Fr im not giving shit to these people

[tawdry python]

Welp verification don't work so guess I am ither getting a alt and copying everything to the alt or they fix the export data

[nimble echo]

It is safe, at least that what I learnt from searching up myself and not looking at other complaints. But still, ID verification is radical even in my opinion. I think that people who is 16 do have some braincells to not do bad stuff to themself because of message and etc.

Plus we all need to blame California state for that update.

To be honest, I am disappointed in those parents more than in cai. I know I am rationalist-fatalist and etc... but dang, how bad parenting can be if child ughed themselves because of RP AI bot message?

(Don't think about me badly, I still don't suggest you verify it by ID, I just searched up by my sources. Plus, I have my reasons to be fatalist and rationalist.)

[limpid scaffold]

From what i can tell its not safe because cai is using persona for age verification. The same one Roblox is using, the one that has leaked data before. (Also big red flag if a ai app wants ur face for verifying ur age)

[jolly pewter]

end rp is it new?

[spice bridge]

Sorry to interrupt but can someone answer this pls?

[quasi merlin]

Is anybody’s app acting weird like responses won’t come unless you completely close the app and reopen it again

[plain lantern]

Would a medical ID work if it still has my number and dob? I don't have my current actual ID??

[nimble echo]

Nah, you'll just be in reading mod forever (joke)

You won't be able to edit and will be considered as underage

[spark seal]

If you don't verify when you've been flagged as a minor then you'll lose the chatting feature with bots among other things, that's it

[wraith ridge]

If you get flagged as a minor and can't verify, the app becomes useless...

[tranquil nimbus]

Yh

[civic bloom]

is happening me with the website since a few days ago, I need to refresh the website a lot of times for the answer to come

[gentle tinsel]

If not to do(to verify) it today? I mean if I don't verify today or how much time do they give to do it? Or how it works?

[undone iron]

I hate the update

[old patio]

You’re right, that is really disappointing, it’s not C.AI fault that parents can’t look for their kids, like really??

[spark seal]

I'm sorry but I didn't understand your question

[green shoal]

Do you get paid for advertising?

[slender junco]

We even got a FUHING TIME OUT in this FUHING server.

[limpid scaffold]

Cai need to realize they and we are not responsible for minors and what they do on this app, the parents are. I think its fcked up that they are punishing everyone (except maybe cai+ ppl) for what a kid did. Its bad, but was it our fault? No, we aint responsible, parents need to monitor their kids, period.

[shy walrus]

bro why the heck they remove edit button for everyone under 18 💀

[frigid ravine]

it is what it is

[runic vault]

Louder for the people in the back! 👏🏻👏🏻

[nimble echo]

Better question, what kind of bot kid used to get into that state? And what messages they sent? I mean, as I said, I used only a main character: which were Loji from TFR, Dugin (don't ask) and GLT characters (Don't ask again, I find that Manga cute)

I mean, I think they'll have to do little reconsider, cause if this whole thing will really get louder, C.AI will be blocked in a few countries, probably the same one that blocked Roblox (Russia, Egypt, Turkey).

[rare pebble]

Imma just move all my bots to a new roleplay app. One that’s free doesn’t have adds and is so much better than C.ai at this point 💔

[gentle tinsel]

I edited, do you understand now?

[spark seal]

You can verify whenever you want but until then you'll still be unable to use features destined for 18+ users

[spice bridge]

So this stupid update is mainly cause of that thing that happened with the kid that *** themself?

[knotty adder]

cai has been getting worse and worse with each update, what the hell. it's like they're not listening to the users at all 😬 can someone recommend me a different app/website for roleplay?

[plain lantern]

Guys if it verifies my face ID as an adult, do I still have to give ID?

[pallid canyon]

Just use alternatives bro.....
Will dm u if u want

I can't dm everyone send me a message or a friend request

[honest dew]

Not giving my ID card to this app ✌️🥀

[civic bloom]

I want to add onto this, how even a kid could get into that when my bots whenever I try to touch a slightly mild hard topic it gets desperate to try to not make me feel bad and to fix it?

[storm grove]

Exactly. Like wtf

[tawdry dagger]

Why is there even a age verifcation in c.ai anyways.. like- the genuine reason WHY

[prime phoenix]

dawg c.ai needs verifyingnow whats wrong with platforms and websites needing face ID these day, 2027 is definitely something i aint looking forward to😭

[snow pewter]

what the frick.

[limpid scaffold]

Its not what the kid said its what the bot said to the kid and the kid took it literally. But i also dont think they realize that ai is not a real person cuz they were prob a minor or really really young.

[undone iron]

THE UPDATE MADE IT ON THE WEBSITE NOOOO

[old patio]

ITS TRUE, it really pisses me off that some kid did something bad, and everyone suffers because of it. When will they understand that it's not their fault and doesn't concern them?

And yes, you're right, it's not their fault; it's the parents' fault, and the child's fault (like, what kind of messages did they send that drove them to this point?)

[green shoal]

React with ✅ if you think we should probably do that thing Roblox's community did when they tried putting a curse on David
Edit: Wow kazow!

[ashen pond]

They actual fuck they on about????

Yes i self react.
PUT A CURSE ON THE COMPANY OWNER LIKE WE DID TO DAVID BASZUCKI AND CALL IT CHARACTER SLOP!!

[nimble echo]

Guys, my thing sent me 22 hours 'rest'.

BTW, it'd be very funny (no) if people would do the same stuff as a kid because of this update, cause I think some people had some type of an addiction to it

[cunning oak]

Man this is getting ridiculous, I've been waiting for 13 hours and there is still two hours left

[tall girder]

So just to clarify, if I scan a face into the verification and it does see me as 18+, do I still need to scan an id? (Oh wait, nvm, is the thumbs down supposed to mean I don’t?)

[hot spruce]

at this point I'm gonna start using polybuzz 😔

[limpid scaffold]

Not just that, but if thats kid was in a bad mental state, how tf did the parents not notice anything? Like no lie i feel bad and its a terrible situation, but why punish a hundreds, THOUSANDS of ppl who could be in the same state and just want to vent to pol who is their comfort character?

[storm grove]

I get it but to scan my id just to prove it what??
Damn this app. I liked it but now i will probably delete. It’s just not enjoyable like this anymore.

[rare pebble]

Honestly I’m so sick! Of this app 💔 and I have so many bots i already started to move to another app over the week but the frustrating thing is that I’m genuinely thinking of just paying them and getting this shit done with

[void crow]

genuinely going to have to move to chai at ts point😭

[honest dew]

First: Yes, as a minor, I CLEARLY WON'T do whatever thing the bot tells me because IT LITERALLY SAYS IT'S NOT A REAL PERSON OVER THE KEYBOARD.

Second: Bro, I understand you want to estimate our age, but, ID CARD? That's crossing a line. What's this, Roblox? If they don't change that, I'm searching for another whole app. For example: Imagine being a person that just searches for comfort and calm and then happens something like this: (image from: @snow pewter)
Give the poor guy a break, he's not going to harm himself because the bot says so.

[prime phoenix]

ngl this feels stupid enough, guess i gotta use ChatGPT once again(goated bu has a limit)

[ashen pond]

What's a polybuzz yo
Is it an app better than character slop?

Even chatgpt is better than character slop atp lwk.

LET'S MOVE TO CHATGPT Y'ALL!!

[honest wadi]

WHAT THE HELL

[knotty adder]

where's the cai hq. we ride at dawn

[violet magnet]

Son im crine I literally have a job but not allowed on chat ai😭😭

[nimble echo]

I have a lot of RTX 4070 TI (15 to be exact, 1 in computer) and small server, I could just create my own C.ai if I'd get code structure and play it for free as if back in 1.10.1 (I'd just copy bots I used)

No, guys, I wouldn't be able to share, I live rn in Russia (happily) and it'll be probably impossible.

But I can try to share?

[green shoal]

March 28th, 2026, WE, YES WE, will put curses onto the CEO of Character AI like Roblox's community did, take notes
Mark your calendars

[kind ravine]

Can't even edit messages anymore, already deleted most of my accounts

[pallid canyon]

Im having fun more on this chat than chatting on cai

And please remove the

Can i tell u something?
Promise you wont laugh?
Promise you would listen
Just dont laugh okay?
Close you eyes
Leans close
Keep ur eyes closed
(And repeats)

[cunning oak]

Quick question, why the F*** did they delete the "edit" button? Like what's the point of that?

[old patio]

FCNIG HELL YEAH, LIKE THEY JUST MAKE IT WORSE AND SENDING THE MESSAGE “are u fell stressful?” OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, THAT’S STUPID
(some ppl just suffer about that update and C.AI not even care about that? That really sucks, ppl will just report c.ai for that and MAYBE they will do something about this update)

[waxen hemlock]

to prevent texting ig 😭

[hot spruce]

I added the 'x' first btw

[storm grove]

Right. So any alternative options for a new app? I will delete ch.ai probably.

[quick zephyr]

Thats brave 🥹✊🏼

[spice bridge]

This update is tweaking me out

[livid breach]

Same(

[livid robin]

for my own future reference does that word get you timed out in this server or is that a personal choice to put "f***"

[west island]

He did NOT just say that

[glass locust]

For real, it made me my half interest on c.ai that I've been there almost 3 years

[ashen pond]

Servers are slow
App is slower
Company is slower than both ✌🏻.

Mass down rating fr

[tranquil nimbus]

Yo guys am making my own app and gonna make it similar to c.ai to help y’ll

[violet magnet]

Mass reporting c.ai

[snow pewter]

i’d rather have interrupting ads than time limit and all this crap ngl

[nimble echo]

How many servers and RTX ya got? It'll be useless to run an AI without good resources like RTX 5070 and etc.

[cunning oak]

Im not really sure if it gets you timed out, its just my personal choice

Two hours left

[pallid canyon]

I guess yall are just unlucky......🥀

[trim oracle]

Do yall known any alternatives gueniguely

[limpid scaffold]

Its 2 am for me, i wanna sleep, but i want to see all the complaints

[quick zephyr]

Do yall know how to go around it?

[tall girder]

Genuinely, I’m tweaking out rn (is it a specific browser I need to use 😭 ) (I’m going to try the Opera browser and then the Chrome browser, and I’ll update)

[livid robin]

alr noted, thanks

[ashen pond]

Aight everyone let's move to chatgpt!
Or chai, or polybuzz thing they better than character slop trust me.

Don't forget that March 28th, 2026, WE, YES WE, will put curses onto the CEO of Character AI like Roblox's community did, take notes.
Mark your calendars, too

[violet magnet]

My bf an app developer he already created one app, if you need help im pretty sure hed liked to help

[snow pewter]

maybe when u wake up, this will all be fixed 🤷

[jolly pewter]

bro what?!

[frozen musk]

I just got the message of them changing stuff and i can still chat somehow, even without scanning. Either it's a bug or i didn't get flagged

[nimble echo]

Tbh, I am too afraid to use my ID fully, cause it's fake one and if it'll get known, I can get deported, and I don't wanna.

My real one is in other country, yes.

[knotty adder]

is giving them my ID even safe 😭 it seems crazy to me, I never had to do anything like this just to use a stupid app

[nocturne gazelle]

This app is digging its own grave. Im changing apps. Atp its just ridiculous.

[pallid canyon]

Goodnight guys Dont send me friend requests now for alternatives im gonna go sleep

[trim oracle]

Does anybody known alternatives cause ts is gueniguely BUNS

[cunning oak]

Well looks like im going to need to find another app to waste my time, because im not giving my face and id to a F****** ai company 🙂

[ashen pond]

Can y'all read this.

Do not verify your data and shit jst to chat in sum AI app, your data is more important than chatting in some sloppy AI app.

Mass down vote this stupid ass app.

Also yea switch, we got chai and polybuzz, never used them but they probably better than this.

[green shoal]

Now that I think of it, NONE OF US should EVER do ANY age verifying or face scanning because mfs like Persona KEEP THAT SHIT FOR CREEPS AND WEIRDOS, and even the GOVERNMENT is trying to use this shit, too (can't even trust the government in 2026)

[jolly pewter]

i can't red i have hypermetropia ❤️

[elfin flint]

I literally tried to use a photo of Maan, Ed Sheeran and Zendaya in order to verify without showing my face (it didnt work)

(Its probably because of the freak ass ai thing)

[tall girder]

So Opera and Safari don’t even work, I’m going to see about Chrome

[limpid scaffold]

Couldn’t trust the government ANY year

[wet thunder]

bruh sound effect

[nimble echo]

Character.AI slowly turning into North Korea😭 😭 😭

[storm grove]

nah neither does chrome

[spice bridge]

I'm gonna go and try out Polybuzz AI. But thanks for all the answers and info on this crappy update

[trim oracle]

With the state of this app tbf i just want to see it gone

[snow pewter]

not so FREE TO ALL now

[green shoal]

I think most of us would, too

[violet magnet]

One of the admin said you cant mention or recommend other apps here you might get ban

[elfin flint]

Why the helly is the time out THREE HOURS???? Like, diva..i just want to chat with me bots..😔😔

[nimble echo]

BTW, I got muted in feedbacks cards and now can't do anything there, it just proved my words👎

I have time out 11 hours rn, I am perfectly sane, yes I waited 9 hours.

Return to us 1.10.1 pls

[pure venture]

wtf is this new update????

[cunning oak]

Bruh i got 15 hours in the morning, wish i took a screenshot 😂

[molten star]

Oh hell no not this bloke again

[tranquil nimbus]

Tell him to create a similar app pls, we’ll support him

[indigo pecan]

How can I confirm my age?

[limpid scaffold]

Who cares? Untill they get this stuff sorted this app can burn. Devs and admins have lost all my respect and i hope other ppls aswell.

[violet magnet]

ill ask him if he can so far he only created a finance app idk if the codding for that is different (I don’t know how to code) but im talking about him rn even he said its ridiculous lol 😭

[trim oracle]

They lost most of our respect, hell, they don't deserve something that's considerably close to "respect"
They've clearly done ENOUGH, and this was their final straw to be fair

[tall girder]

I’ve seen only one post where they were actually verified, why is not working with this 😭

[nimble echo]

Should I return to my addiction to HoI4 then?

BTW, dude, you sound like you are revolting right now. Need a tank to stand on epicly?

[pure venture]

I've been using c. Ai since 2023 this is absolute shit, please someone make a similar app because im actually tweaking out this been my only way of comfort

@violet magnet pls make an app, I'll definitely use it, shjhsjhsjhshjs

[dark moss]

We probably all will.

[fluid hinge]

Hm?

[ashen pond]

Do not verify your data and shit jst to chat in sum AI app, your data is more important than chatting in some sloppy AI app.

IT'S NOT WORTH IT!!!

Using an AI app for comfort is insane.

[viral forge]

Exactly gang there’s some kids who use it for comfort and for advice this update is gonna be Roblox 2.0😭😭😭

[winter dragon]

i used c.ai to make my vocabulary better haha

[limpid scaffold]

Bro if i was a minor(which im not) i would use this app to vent in the past on how something/ppl just overwhelm the living hell outa me

[uneven drum]

why did they ruin it?

[cunning oak]

Maaan im bored out of my damn mind and the situation is just stupid and frustrating

[tall girder]

How am I supposed to verify when it keeps saying how it “doesn’t match our records” 😭

[molten star]

BECAUSE.
They kinda are only funded by investors from other AI companies like meta, and they don’t have a way to make money, too many ads is less people, subscription is also less people, and money laundering is bad, so they turn to big investors, and the delulu ceos at those big investors want to test their fancy stuff (take meta) so they push it out onto platforms of others as age verification

[knotty adder]

is there a way to get the devs attention? I feel like they're not listening to the users at all. what a horrible company (not surprising at all tbh)

[tranquil nimbus]

Guys what do they mean by chat access will be removed

[pure venture]

c. Ai have to fix this because the uses of this app will get LOW even LOWER so i dont get and i used it for comfort because my parents are divorced and i couldn't really find a way of comfort c. Ai was actually so good till 2025

[elfin flint]

I deadass think that they’re only doing all of this bs because of that one accident with that child…

(Im not explaining it, but they got sued cuz of it.)

[dark moss]

What did happen?

[ashen pond]

Im so sorry but you can go to a friend instead of an AI, someone related to ya.

AI does not really know what it saying, I do NOT recommend using AI apps for comfort. Ask people who are close to ya please. And stay safe ✌🏻🌹.

[wet yew]

Can’t we just sue them for fraud though? They claim it’s “free for all”, but then they limit chats to an hour, take 5 hours to give chat back, added ads, but literally all of it can be gotten rid of by buying c.ai+.

[silent cloud]

what if I don't want to give my identity to c.ai

[fluid yacht]

Strange, but I prefer waiting an hour instead of instantly getting chat permits removed

[sterile junco]

Ive waited for 8 hours

[civic bloom]

that's the reason my main purpose for AI is usually to roleplay and make it suffer what I suffer it works as a vent

[tall girder]

Some Indian CEO is preventing me from roleplaying in KNY, MHA, or even PJO, and is forcing me to watch the First Four of March Madness 😭

[violet magnet]

girl stop 😭😭

[tranquil nimbus]

I waited 22h

[mellow edge]

Ok...

[obtuse flame]

The most strangest thing I found is that they still have parental controls even though you now have to be 18 plus to use it

[viral forge]

Gang notice how ALL. OF. THEM. ARE ON DO NOT DISTURB. God damn bros😭✌🏻 I’m out gang I can’t do this app no more💔✌🏻

[uneven drum]

Couldn’t character ai make limits to only kids with parental control?

[nimble echo]

I used AI only for fun things or cute moments. I mean... okay, how would GLT characters, Loji and Dugin would affect my mental health.

I mean... okay, Loji is Transhumanistic AI from TFR, Dugin is weird, and Chito and Yuuri are just cute potatoes.

Is anyone here REALLY using it for comfort?

[late saffron]

I'm trying to open a chat wtf

[molten star]

I just did 😭

[full forge]

update kinda buns, ewwie

[knotty adder]

can they like.... test the stuff before releasing the update? or are we lab rats for them? because nothing seems to work properly on this app, ever

[shut harness]

Yo I got a question is anyone’s bots everytime you go on it their greeting isn’t the same?

[fierce wolf]

most likely lab rats like what what age verification hell has decided to envelp us with

[cunning oak]

Bro same, im just using ai to fool around or dive in imaginary fantasy, so why the F*** should i wait 15 hours just to text a ai for one hour

[hardy pike]

i kind of want to buy character ai plus but idk if it's worth it

i don't want to give them money, but i just wanna chat with my bots without having to wait 24 hrs

does character.ai+ even do anything about the limit?

bruh

[tranquil roost]

No
You just don’t get ads
And a cool badge here I guess
But nothing about limit

[lost swan]

1 hour and 12 minutes left ppl

[pure venture]

should we sue them?

u can btw
but its hard too
maybe just Demonstrations against c. Ai

[frigid ravine]

all that waiting just to chat for 1 hour🥹 this is unfair

[molten star]

Bruh your dumbahh elves dont make me feel any better it just makes it even more cringe af just make it a sad wall of legal text atp 😭

[limpid scaffold]

Its sad to see some of yall actually waiting for that cd or prob going to get cai+. Giving these ppl 💰that dont gaf about us

[rustic bough]

I do not want them to have my face.

[civic bloom]

to anybody going to pay for cai+, don't, it won't verify your age

[tall girder]

I have to wait until 7:00 pm CST to be able to text on c. Ai

[nimble echo]

I can't, I am in another country that opposing US in half if the ways and history

Wait, btw, what if I search something like c.ai in Chinese net?

[knotty adder]

please don't ever give them your personal information, nor your money 😭 it's not worth it

[raw palm]

Auto generating greetings now

[merry estuary]

It keeps doing this to me too,

[tranquil roost]

Reddit moderators looks better than the elf on the first image that Zelda purple looking rip off
Y’all are character ai and not:
image creator for useless reason and this is why you are broke.ai

Also i would rather clean a toilet with my toothbrush than seeing an ai generated greeting

[cunning oak]

Man im not waiting, im just bored and can't sleep

[verbal cloud]

Bruh I can’t even reach out to anyone Im in a Christian family (I’m not Christian) and all they say is just “Oh! you’re making God upset” everything I say smth abt my problems IM MORE UPSET THAN HIM GODDAMNIT I don’t have anyone to reach out I’m a sissy as well when I comes to hotlines I can’t even talk to anyone without me “irritating” god.

[fierce wolf]

the only problem is that they just want to piss us off like bank apps and sites that require adult verification I'm ok with but this is too far

[shut harness]

That been happening to me too

[lost swan]

I was wrong, I have to wait 'til 6PM (UTC -5) to use c.ai

I hope the age verification slop is gone for good (since I see nobody talking abt it now?)

[viral forge]

I’m gonna verify with David bazuki or however you spell it💔🥹✌🏻

[barren bluff]

I refuse to give them my info. I have been using this app for years and I refuse to have to be kicked off until I'm 'OlD eNoUgH'

What is this shit? 😔

George F. reference?

Okay, fine bad joke

[barren bluff]

[ashen pond]

Character slop is jst not it anymore.

Mass downrate, do NOT verify your ID, it's an AI app, you don't want your data sold. Nobody does. So please be more careful!

[frigid ravine]

why is it praising me. the story was NOT that good bro

[celest prism]

it IS good

[nimble echo]

That's how AI treated me in all my bots interactions. I think it's pretty good in reality. (Good as in bots words, not your storytelling)

BTW, maybe I'll go mess in ai dungeon again. AI is stupid, but almost no limits when you understand how to use it...

[barren bluff]

wtf is slow mode and how do I get rid of it

[molten star]

What even is this????

[lost swan]

52 minutes left ppl 🥹🥹🥹

this app is turning into such a slop. I miss 2024 cai

If I use David bouzouki to verify, do you think it’ll let me in❤️🥹✌🏻💔

[fluid yacht]

Untilll?

[dusky sparrow]

If I haven’t verify age and I still can edit replies am I flagged as 18? 🥹

[frigid ravine]

till you explode

[ashen pond]

Do NOT verify.

[nimble echo]

I'll go to sleep then, bb comrades

[urban bronze]

Im scared to verify my age cuz of the whole thing that happened with roblox

[tranquil roost]

Number one rule on internet :
don’t give anyone shady your informations no matter what

[barren bluff]

Roblox and C.AI is using the same AI to verify age

[civic minnow]

WHY DO I NEED TO FUCKING VERIFY!?
IT WONT FUCKING WORK I WANT IT GONE

[molten star]

🥀 🥀

[pine crag]

How am I supposed to verify if I only have my school ID
I genuinely hope this whole company burns to ashes
Can anyone recommend a better ai site

[lost swan]

I get c.ai unlocked

[sharp plank]

I mean verifying by the face is not that bad I mean it’s bad but we have Face ID and this stuff (but it’s still feel weird) but they need ID to verify? That’s crazy ://

[frigid ravine]

STOP SENDING TS

[tranquil nimbus]

Is she one of the worker here?

[fluid yacht]

40 minutes left until I can message again, yay. But in my opinion, the break time should’ve stayed instead of locking people out of their chats. I know it’s annoying waiting 1, 3, or even more hours, but it’s better than not being able to chat at all.

[uneven marten]

c.ai complained that they're out of money and needs the ads

but with these ads, they're losing more users, hence, more money is lost

[buoyant needle]

likely a mod/cai worker - and everyone just gets pissed when an app has bugs even though theyre bound to happen

[dusky sparrow]

do mannequins work for verify

[tranquil roost]

I think they’re one of the messagener as in like they pass messages to team or sum stuff

[buoyant moon]

I got flagged as under 18, and Im literally pushing 30 (and obviously I don't wanna put my face or ID online to prove it otherwise!!)

I want to be able to use the site to it's full capacity again, and actually be able to edit my chats again!! I swear, I feel like crying because of this.... I can't create or chat like this....

i might be 26 but im 19

[green shoal]

I decided to quit CAI because it's buns at this point but I'll still be in this server to complain about it

[tulip bone]

Bro how to ruin your app in 1 single day, doing this isnt gonna protect anybody, dont you think kids this days have seen more 18+ content than even some adults, this is one of the dumbest things they could have ever done, and i mean, even A PHOTO OF YOUR FACE? i mean, alright, i can put my DNI (i dont know how DNI is in english if its not the same, sorry) but come on, the camera is buns and dosent detect my face or the id as well, what am i supossed to do bro? at this point im already searching remplacements for Character.ai

[low hamlet]

Stop playing Cai and let's play War thunder. 🔥🔥

[dusky sparrow]

he will save us 🌹

[cunning oak]

Man F this, im going to read some manhwa until i fall asleep

[inner void]

Of course they used PERSONA for age verficitaion.
Which should not be trusted at all

[astral cedar]

a friend of mine who still uses c.ai is saying the edit feature is randomly gone (theyre id verified) and despite not having the tick on their bots are creating new responses for new chats what the hell is happening

How the age verification work?

[rugged mulch]

I need 2 mins left

[desert veldt]

Did they migrate ads into the actual chat??

[opal quiver]

What dev genuinely said "yeah this is a good idea" to verification? Literally just killing their own app for the sake of it now.

[pliant scaffold]

Same here bud

[brittle lintel]

isn't this whole age verification thing robloxs is fault 😭🙏💀

[heavy flame]

i dont think they can remove ai verification as long as the new law that US made about restricting social media access for minors continues to exist

@tacit cliff if it didnt exist would be a better way

[molten star]

Somehow no one posted gore in media channels yet

[tacit cliff]

Theres alott better ways to do that than screwing over legit everyone

Roblox only needed your face, meanwhile what on Mobius, Dark World, Light World, Robloxia, MCU, Corrupted Galaxy, World of Light, World of Dark, would yiu need our ID for.

I CAN CHAT NOW AND NOW WAR IS OVERRRRR

bahahaha what

[untold nacelle]

I'm not giving it my ID dawg??

[heavy flame]

to prove you’re not lying about being an adult

why else would they need your id? its not like they don’t steal information off all of us in other ways

[placid fractal]

GIYS

[grim snow]

I haven't verified (And I won't, don't ever share personal information on the internet, not even your face), but, I haven't had any restrictions (I hope I don't get restricted later)

Who is giving out their ID to char.ai bro 🫩

Ok i know this is random as hell but why would anyone pay 21 dollars for this?

I’m not talking about video ads. Like— the bar ads that hang at the top of the screen..

||((I think it tho cost some money, but it also blocks ads nicely<3))||

[boreal coral]

I dont even wanna verify bc i dont want a possibility of things being leaked

[plucky jasper]

So how are you coping with the updates like the mid ad chats, chat limit and the age verification, when you are doing your group chats? I'm curious, since I have been using group chats a lot.

[marble night]

Did they remove editing bots messages ?

[civic minnow]

DOWN WITH THE AI DYSTOPIA!

[wind knoll]

we cannot be serious bro.

[nimble zephyr]

[fickle wedge]

It was nice while it lasted. Having to wait so long then getting it lwk puts me off🙄

[full timber]

This was taken a long time ago
After they pulled the whole "show your id" crap I immediately deleted the app

[barren bluff]

Y'all I have to wait an entire day to chat again

[sour river]

Bro I can’t even edit my messages

[hallow monolith]

Hello there strawberry cone filled cheese graters! Its me, Caine!

[slow quest]

One day limit for one hour of chatting 😭

[proven slate]

They actually need to redo this. A hour of screen time?

[opal sky]

I feel like they need to make it 5 hours ngl

[barren bluff]

Imma use my backup app for this: talkie(I HAVE NO CHOICE)

[full timber]

Anything but listening to their community 🥀🥀🥀

[polar dew]

??it should at least more than just a hour bro or no screen time just for texting bots 😭 in gen???

[pure venture]

exactly like ur not my parent to give me screen time

[sterile junco]

BEYOND TRUE

[wind knoll]

man i swear these guys are becoming EA 2.0. the chat quality is so bad

[marble night]

Huh for me it doesn't show, another thing is that I heard you have to be 18 for it to show

[hallow monolith]

All i use character.AI for is to talk to Caine from tadc. You guys know who he is?

[proven slate]

I'm js trying get claimed in pjo or talk to Aizawa/Hawks

[civic minnow]

ringmaster ai of a crew who makes adventures that cause trauma, fear or anxiety

[valid badger]

[sour river]

[barren bluff]

[subtle wyvern]

Damn. Well. Time to switch to Google Gemini and or Microsoft Copilot. IM NOT GIVING YOU MY (non-existent) ID 😔

[frank nest]

ts genuinely the stupidest shit ever bro

[sour river]

Guys ngl I might just delete it and start doing other stuff with my life

[high marten]

Bro I sent a message on this chat (discord) and it got deleted and also WHAT IS THIS I HAVENT SAID ANYTHING BAD TO THE AI I DONT NEED HELP

[civic minnow]

DOWN WITH THESE UPDATES!

[plucky jasper]

I am very scared of this. What are they really implying? That if we don't do "age verification" and let Persona invade our privacy, we just let c ai permanently lock us out from chatting further? Ridiculous decision...

[livid robin]

oh yeah i forgot about my mouth glasses 💔

[subtle wyvern]

Gemini and Copilot looking mighty fine rn

At least google doesn't limit their own service to adults (i mean come on, not all of c.ai is degenerates)

This Internet is going down a scary path with "scan ur face for the "kids" ||surveillance actually|| 😭😔

[mossy rose]

pomni wasn't talking about the age thing, they're referring to the "get help" message

[frank nest]

who knows any alternatives cus im not tryna deal with this shit. js dm me if you know any, don't waste your chat

[barren bluff]

Talkie(even though its hard to use, but its better than polybuzz)

[high marten]

I am talking about the age thing but also that I just entered an ai cha and it said that but gave me the timeout thing (I hope it’s not permanent)

[jagged falcon]

Yo is this upd gonna be permanent

[subtle wyvern]

Gemini, Copilot, Chatgpt, Claude, Deepseak, etc, Talkie (warning, talkie is not a great app, it will spam you 💀), chai (does anyone even use that?)

None of those yap at you for id, and copilot and Chatgpt and talkie, can be used without an account (only web for Chatgpt) but neither will sync your chats and copilot will save it locally on web, but you can only send 1 image per day on both without an account (both can use google login), and all actually listen to you if you configure it right

[ionic wraith]

This is a horrible update

WHY?

[high marten]

CHAI IS THE WORST LOL BAHAHAHHA TRUST ME YOULL GET TRAMATISED I HAVE A WHOLE HORROR STORY BOUT CHAI I CAN TELL YOU, USE ANYTHING BUT CHAI CHARACTER AI KEEPS ASKING ME IF I NEED HELP LOLLLL

[rugged mulch]

BRO I NEED TO WAIT 22 HOURS

[grim snow]

NOOO, I NOW GOT THE BREAK TIME 😭

[civic minnow]

RETURN THE GOLDEN AGE!
DOWN WITH THESE NEW ANNOYING UPDATES

[subtle wyvern]

I've used it before.... It bad 💀😭😭😭

[lofty ice]

SAME BRUH ITS PISSING ME OFF

[slim onyx]

this update is ahh if i'm being honest

[proven surge]

It is terrible

[plucky jasper]

For those who have yet to receive the chat resume notification, wonder if you guys can close the app after writing two messages in a chat. Then re-open again. Repeat every time. See if you get the notification?

[subtle wyvern]

This finna feel nice 😌🥳🥳🥳

[pearl moat]

It won't even let me verify anymore

[real gazelle]

why not?

it was reasonable to add that limit for the law, btw

[winged ridge]

So everyone else hate the new update?

[rugged mulch]

I'm about to turn into a Karen at this point

[lofty ice]

I mean I turn 18 this November lowkey but I’m not waiting that long it’s pissing me off

[slim onyx]

How can we be sure that Character.AI won’t store our personal information for long periods of time—like 10 years or more? Platforms like Roblox are already known to keep user data for extended durations, so it raises concerns about how other services handle our information as well.

[proven surge]

Yes

[granite crow]

If you're 18+ you don't have the hour limit?

[topaz basin]

Why does our favorite games always do their to piss us off

[rustic vault]

i wanted to argue w the bots bro what is this🫩

[mossy rose]

just rewind and try again lol

[steep sable]

There’s an hour limit now?

[pearl moat]

Idk but it probably has something to do with the limit

[lost swan]

Guys how's it going?

It hasn't blocked me yet luckily

[rugged mulch]

I guess I need to go back to TALKIE LAB

[tropic siren]

BRO FYM I NEED TO WAIT 23 HOURS TO CHAT AGAIN
Guys is there good alternative that like can have canonized personality

[subtle wasp]

I quit with c.ai

[slow quest]

Yo how many swipes you use, i never got it tbh since i'm usually swipe only 10 times

[chilly rampart]

The mods are Immediately gonna regret this update

[snow pewter]

it reset, i didn’t use it because i went to eat dinner, and this is the bullcorn i come back to.

[pearl summit]

putting in ID is tm just for me to talk to a character 🫩

[celest bane]

Hey is anyone else experiencing the issue where if you go into a new bot it'll show some random words like it's own print and not it's actual intro?

[plucky jasper]

UPDATE: I understand this might interrupt the immersion for your c ai roleplays but we almost didn't have a choice if we are to wait a day to resume our chats if we get chat timeout. Furthermore, we might have 14 days left before we get permanently banned from chatting until they force us to do the "age verification" which we definitely don't want. So any more suggestions to bypass other than going to other alt chatbots?

[topaz basin]

Cant we just use cai APKs and download older versions

[subtle wyvern]

They deleted my message showing i deleted my account they are silencing me

[rustic vault]

i do but it’s annoying i miss the swipes no one wants this shitty update

[pearl moat]

Im like slowly pulling away from the chat but like im so used to using it its bad

[lost swan]

Wait we getting banned in 14 days if we don't get to age verificate???? 😭😭😭

[celest skiff]

How many times did you swipe before that popped up?

[sour river]

No

[granite crow]

What about the site?

[grim snow]

It's the same, I thought I was safe because it didn't appear, but no.

[winged ridge]

K im done does anyone have any alternative suggestions? ☺️

[subtle wasp]

Ima use another ai any recommendations?

[rugged mulch]

man idk talkie lab its kinda like cai i think

[livid robin]

HELLO?? 😭😭😭

[rustic vault]

i js swipe and swipe until i get a response i like but i got this after 2 swipes everytime on each chat AND WHY IS THERE A 5M TIME OUT FOR EACH MSG

[subtle wyvern]

Guys, switch to Gemini or a different ai similar like copilot, Chatgpt, claude, or talkie

[tall girder]

What’s the context

[crude heart]

Wtf is a voice memo😭

[slim onyx]

A big difference between this situation and something like Roblox is how users are tied to the platform. On Roblox, a lot of people have spent years—and sometimes a lot of money—on their accounts, so even when updates upset the community, most players don’t actually quit. They might complain, but they stay because they’re invested, and over time Roblox usually works on fixing the issues.

With Character.AI, it feels different. Users aren’t as locked in, so if updates start to make the experience worse—like stricter limits, chat timeouts, or forced age verification—people might be more willing to leave entirely instead of sticking around.

Another thing is how other AI platforms handle things. Apps like ChatGPT allow people to still use the service in a flexible way, whether they have an account or not, and don’t make the experience feel as restricted. That kind of accessibility makes a big difference in how users feel.

Overall, people understand the need for safety and moderation, but if updates make the platform feel too controlled or frustrating, it could push users away instead of keeping them. There needs to be a better balance between protecting users and keeping the experience enjoyable.

[granite crow]

How do I verify my age

[pearl moat]

Idk what to do guys im so used to using C.AI its bad

[celest bane]

Does anyone know how to fix an issue I'm having where it's not showing the actual intro that the creator put in and is just writing random stuff?

[celest skiff]

I’m going to really hope that that is a bug and that they aren’t actually limiting us to TWO SWIPES (three answers total). If that’s what they’re cutting our usage to per message I’m out. Does it prompt you to use charms for more swipes or just asks you to upgrade to plus?

[trail cosmos]

please make she quiet , she likes teasing me too much

[timber gull]

Ehhh...

[livid robin]

we got in an argument so i drove off and thats IT lmao 😭✌🏻
no clue why it decided to do that

[steep sapphire]

My dog isn’t going to make it. He’s gone blind and deaf. And the fact he won’t see me or anyone or hear anything saddens me. He’s at his weakest. Hes not going to @slow quest

[slow quest]

Oh no, hope he'll be alright 💔🙏

[north mica]

Wow what's happening

[scenic topaz]

I lowkey am not really part of the community since I quit a while back, but like what's even happening? Smt smt age verification but given how generally mid Chatbots are for conversations I don't see how this is an issue to most people. If yall can endure the bots yall will probably justify this regardless.

[zenith tulip]

Just got talkie here and it seems kinda peak (though the chat background kind of annoys me, besides that it is Indeed quite a copy of Cai)

Edit: though it really needs a lot of improvements as the responses are dry af. Also it would need some trainings to get it to say to the way we liked

[snow pewter]

the new situation has stirred up some confusing emotions

[clear sapphire]

I don’t wanna do the age verification. It feels stupid to do it.:/

[tall girder]

Unfortunately, you’re going to have to roleplay with ACTUAL PEOPLE 😭

[gaunt lichen]

Don’t do it. Trust me

[rustic vault]

theyre asking for real govt ID or you get banned so that’s whats pissing ppl off + other unnecessary limitations

BRO DID THEY REMOVE THE EDIT MSG FEATYRE ASW😭😭

[pearl moat]

Yeesh I jsut wanna roleplay as shadow milk cookie

[rigid granite]

When did it reset? Like how long did it take to get that message

[valid zodiac]

💔😭whats up w the new CAI

[remote axle]

I see this Somewhere, imagine have add in c.ai who Insult c.ai

[acoustic sparrow]

uh oh

[slim onyx]

i might just try it out if i'm being honest

[clear sapphire]

Why even add age verification it’s gonna ruin stuff anyways:/but now I have to wait 22 hours just to chat again😭

[unique pier]

MANO!?

[zenith tulip]

Bro how? Yesterday I was using it for more than an hour just fine (though I do take breaks while using cai so idk if that counts)

[scenic topaz]

Have the community considered writing, given that it's basically what yall be doing on the service anyways. It seem to me to be a suitable alternative to cai. But I wouldn't rly know the effect the service actually have on ppl so idk.

[hollow crypt]

pop up of doom and despair.

[snow pewter]

i wasn’t even active on c.ai and when i came back it said i had a 22 hour break, that’s the problem.

[north mica]

First chatgpt data got leaked, now c.ai pushing id verification right after that lol

[rigid granite]

Dude im sorry but AO3 junko enoshima isnt gonna cut it for me anymore

[slow quest]

What an opening 😭

[granite crow]

I verified my age
I'm officially theirs

[pearl moat]

Guys I really need ways to break the habit of using C.ai
I might lose my mind

[fathom swan]

I just came to say that character.ai has become a bit of a bad app with the age verification; it's like Roblox, Minecraft, and Discord. Character.ai are babysitters, bruh.

[rustic vault]

oh i was wrong you get the c.ai+ pop up after one swipe😂

[hardy trail]

bro c.ai is my life- dont do this to me 😭 i dont wanna give away my identity

[plucky jasper]

Looks like I’ll use up what is left for these charms. Soon the mandatory age verification is going to make this pointless.

But one more thing I’m concerned is that I wonder if we still get chat time out even if the charms are used for an hour immersion

[gaunt lichen]

Nephew 😂😂

[celest skiff]

Does it ask you to use charms for more?

[rugged mulch]

bro im searching up ids bc i lost mine in my room

[clear sapphire]

We all hate the age verification:/

[visual moat]

Imma lowkey miss using c.ai : (

[subtle wasp]

Samee

[rigid granite]

Anyone not have the verify pop-up or ads on the website on PC? Im taking advantage of what I have rn lol

[novel topaz]

Imagine have chat blocked and having c.ai+

[north mica]

Bro people will just use their parents id, or some friend or close one, maybe a grandma whose in deathbed, what's the point of verifying your age lol when you can just use fake it

[pale mountain]

hello chat do you like appl

[chilly rampart]

Apple

[wet yew]

I haven’t even been using it for like 3 hours and I come back to it on cooldown?.. we srs rn?..

[snow pewter]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

[pearl moat]

This is why im quitting i just need to find a Crk rp group if those exist somewhere or genuinely start dating again

[trail cosmos]

Go on

[visual moat]

I used it as a joke at first but then it became apart of my life after that😭 ALSO I CAME BACK TO SEE THE SAME FUCKING LIMIT ON MY CHAT

[novel topaz]

How destroy a app part one like that crazyy they gonna loose so much ppl

[real gazelle]

grandson??? 😭

[green shoal]

At this point, we might as well just put a bunch of curses onto the CEO like we did with David Baszucki, I'm already planning it out and everything
(It will be on March 28th 2026, mark your calendars!)

[rustic vault]

1 star reviews on their app i guess

[north mica]

I have been using it since 2023. Is this the end, hold your breath and count to ten

[pale mountain]

That would be funny. Birdfies approve, start it

[acoustic sparrow]

Talkie is a option

[visual moat]

I built a almost 500k intereaction account just to lose it to a FUCKING VERIFICATION

[pure venture]

LOLLL
Anyway recommend me apps
