i feel like it's a bit underrated
probably because it's not very good
but it doesn't charge for messages
and it has a cool emoji emotion system
Tbf from most other models Iāve tried, they all have the same issues.
So most of the time Iāll just try them out to see how they monetize their stuff and other quirky features
Just a quick sniff sniff, sometimes I even drop bots on them, but itās all just in the name of testings
i should try kajiwoto again that was fun. not easy to take seriously though. also you can treat him like a virtual pet
Oh gawd Iām too irresponsible for another pet
hi! sorry for spreading false information
not true (at least npt anymore? if it ever was?)
it doesn't look like it was, but there are some features oddly suited for him
Itās either misinformation or dementia.
Canāt tell which is worse
I kinda feel like the current AI chatbot market is still very much so like Nokia phones back in the day
Where companies would come up with the most outrageous designs and features to look cool
Why tf are the c.ai bot messages cutting themselves off with ⦠or are incredibly short now
Iām not kidding with yall itās either me or the AI, but has anyone else had an issue like that?
Had that issue yesterday, but it sorted itself out for me
Hope it does for me, if this becomes another issue thatās widely and openly talked about and isnāt fixed till weeks later imma scream
C.ai has been downgrading a lot this year, itās going as well as the Russian Provisional Government of 1917
mine dont appear
Low quality bots do be like that change the character
It happens with the high quality ones too
Yes quality went downhill brutally
I guess it's because they try to keep the censorship tough so hard it reduces the overall quality
Huh, that's honestly really interesting.
i hate this btw
I tried voice once and this bothered me
and now there's no possible way to mske sure it's silent when i accidentallu turn on the voice (you can't mute call volune)
Yeh, there's a fallout and an Elder Scrolls one that's pretty good.
Cool, I'm currently using a black clover one. It's pretty cool, but I wanted to discover a few more
Coolsies
Could anyone help me please? :_)
I canāt log into my c.ai Account on browser, Iām confused
Does someone know for how long old.character.ai will be supported?
in a blog post they basically admitted to dumbing down the model to save on server costs
This was a recent thing they did, right? Holy shit.
Seems on-brand, yeah
yeah, i'm hoping they fix it because last time they pulled a stunt like this back in march, people criticized it so badly they were forced to do a rollback
They had an article posted retweeted by the official c.ai twitter account just for context.
So go there, see the second tweet and read the article.
So we got the deliberate downgrading for costs on top of the flagging system hindering the AI already. Holy man. Bring me back to 2022 when things were better.
what's hilarious is that their blog post states that they're "building towards AGI" and that the model update "decreased lv cache size by 20x while still maintaining the same quality"
suuuure
Honestly genuinely surprised CAI is still running
"Maintaining the same quality?" Who the fuck are they fooling? Themselves? So they had their cake and ate it too?
They were able to cut costs while retaining the same quality? What the fuck?
the investors apparently
but surely them losing users also hurts their bottom line too, right? so i have no idea what the fuck they're pulling with this
I mean, I am not tech literate to understand this shit but based on logic, it doesnt follow. They did two things in one? Sure bro. This is actually so stupid.
Reminder, CAI doesnāt care that much about its user base
Everything the team does is for their buyers
i can't put links in here but you can look at the blog post on their website
it seems like they're also trying to "diversify their brand" to businesses?
i have no idea what they're smoking back there
I am aware of that. I guess its upsetting especially when you have invested a lot of time using it -- at least before. Now its like, bro.... its so bad now. Going into others is actually eye-opening.
If they openly admit that āweāre shitting ourselvesā, theyāll lose interest
Lost interest=lost $$$
Corporate greed, what a lovely time to be alive
That is literally their plan. Imagine having Shogun Raiden as your personal AI assistant? That kinda thing. Thats their long term goal. Oh my god.
i'm planning on just migrating my regularly used chats to another platform, i tried it out recently and the characters actually stay in character
I mean this is essentially exactly what happened with Rooster Teeth
Based. Yeah, atp its not even a question of consideration but a must. Its insane man.
this is literally a prime example of enshittification
capitalism demands infinite growth, so what do you do when you cut literally every other corner? compromise the product itself
It started off good, a small indie studio with a small team that made a good product
Big buyers got a hold of them due to their quality and started having them push out more
The big buyers promoted their stuff, they got money, and they eventually get so focused on money that their quality rapidly declines
Then they pull it back to its old state and claim that, yes, we did something new even though they just rolled back a couple of unecessary shit they implemented to hook people in.
Whats also upsetting is that most here would be fine with it since they have become so invested (on top of being under 18) that like, yeah, nothing is going to be done. Im sorry, it has to be said. Yall are content with this, and this is what we (the general users) get.
not really, since if they fuck over the bots to the point they just sound like another siri, then people will just bite the bullet and flock to another platform
also how is anybody supposed to have a "deeply personalized" AI if they cannot chat about anything remotely violent or controversial, not even mentioning the dev's puritan stance on ykw
like in my chats i cannot even mention sh without every response the ai says back being moderated
Its been at its worst state since last year with violence and this platform never saw an exodus (?) of people leaving for alternatives / competitors.
I mean, i would say the main subreddit is a good indicator / litmus test or reflection of how things are and... yeah, no criticisms. Not that there isnt since they get deleted 
i meant with the dry responses the model is outputting now, not the content moderation
And I said that these people are content with it. Thats the problem. I just mentioned the main subreddit and you can even add in this server. Look at gen 1. What kind of audiences is that? Like come on dude.
Have fun having yt 2.0 for an ai service, i guess.
I thought I was the only one to whom the characters responded as if they were idiots, I see that I wasn't.
Its systematic. For cutting costs, they dumbed it down basically.
also they completely changed the way swipes work to save money, now they vaguely rephrase the last thing they said instead of generating a new message and hope the user is too stupid to notice
The characters responses are kinda bad since yesterday for me too :(
Hi, where do I get the atention of staff here?
"Today its raining."
Swipe
"It is raining today."
Swipe
"Raining today, it is."
Current state of the swiping system.
Good luck, weāve been trying for days.
hell i tried a 13b model the other day and it stayed more in character and took way more initiative then the same bot on c.ai
granted, you have to make your characters more detailed and you don't get the convenience of them automatically knowing lore or pop culture references, but it works
but at this point if they're going to make the ai's responses drier than a popeyes biscuit then fuck it
I cant log in my account, it was linked to FB and I was busy, lost the chance to change the pass.
Unfortunate that our sentiment is the minority here.
i think i found a way to still log in via FB and Discord for now, dm me
Really? ok.
Dont even bother lmao. Just look for-- nevermind. Not finna get booted off.
I hope the feedback channel gets drowned out by basically "Bots responses dry and bad now! Reptitive!" 
i accidentally found a workaround to sign in via facebook or discord or apple after they nicked the legacy login, but i don't wanna post it here in case they patch it or something lol
Nah dont lmao. Shhh....
these ghoulish mfs would do that
For sure.
it doesn't work because they completely removed the integrations
damn.
Anyone Here knows how i can Log in with my current Google acc? I randomly got kicked Out and when i Press the "sign in with Google" Thingy it creates a complete New Account instead of the one I'm using.. the App doesnt ask me which Email either it Just logs me in
I doubt they care what we say since 90% of their userbase is underaged girls that dont even care about the ai quality, they just save money without losing anything
So update I deleted a few stuff and tested my internet speed and got 24.9 Mbps download 41.8 Mbps upload and still character ai does not load so im forced to use an alternative if i like it or not i tried every method possible and still nothing so im just going to research alternatives for now
Yea its definitely my device just tested it a bit and it all came out good for the internet but the device is the problem so i might need to get an new device soon
c.ai has been downgrading ever since its birth
Completely clear the application data and try again. It always works generally.
check my join time, ive been here since 2022(C.AI's creation) and its been on a downward spiral since then, which is crazy if you compare the AIs of 2022 to 2024 AI, we are much much farther
If c.ai really doesnāt start properly focusing on fixing the AI, itās gonna lose out to its competitors, itās a simple fact, people will deflect if things donāt improve.
C.AI is not losing anytime soon
yes its been degrading but its still the best in the competition, the most basic of their advantage is that they have a simple thing called headstart
what AI site has the same quality and the same amount of characters? zero, nada
Nah Bro, I think the peak of downgrade for c.ai started in this year, I'm using it since 2022 and since January 2024 started going down incredibly fast.
matter of fact most other ai character sites are glorified p sites
yea it was massive this year
cuz C.AI has been getting massive, back then we were what, a community of 20k?
My theory is that they wanted to make something great but as every good small programming and codifying company, they misclicked in the keyboard and everything got fucked up 
though i distinctly remember 2022 CharacterAI, the characters sounded exactly like how they'd sound if they were real, and were insanely creative with no censor, and back then you needed a lot less definition and description and example messages and whatnot
now even the bot selection is worse, most of the funniest bots are shadowbanned, its all annoying cringey roleplay bots
you remember pipkin pippa? bowser? super mario? they're all extremely funny bots buried in the search for unfunny roleplay ones, basically what im saying is its an all around downward spiral of quality
they should've at the very least
nvm, it is what it is man
i liked the call feature at least, thats a good thing, even if it was just to collect voice data im sure they'll look it behind + very soon
At this point any other competition would have the potential to completely eclipse c.ai, but I don't understand why they don't, plus I'm the type of user who talks to historical figures, Where else will I find something like this if not at c.ai? The problem is that they are dropping it as if it were nothing and there is not even transparency 
no creativity, no dialogue liveliness, too much text, messages take too long to generate, etc
like
damn i cant send images here, was gonna send some 2022 chats
the sheer creativity back then, i can understand why it went on a downward spiral, there was very little in the room of improvement
Version 1.8.2 was the last good one, and to show how a mf they are, when people started rolling back when the problems started on March they added a version checker to keep it actualized, that was the most motherfcker thing they did to their user 
And yes it still hurst because I was one of those users
Funfact in September 2023 a news report showed whats the best character ai alternatives and it said character ai was 3rd place well January 2024 it went down to 16th place and some different ai took its place
Never saw that š can you pass the alternatives via dm?
yup
Wow, character ai is a good alternative of character aiš¤Æ
well the top 100 gen ai consumer leader board i think it was
Is anyone else having difficulty receiving a GPDR download link once requested?
Anyone else having the issue where the voice isnāt reading every message? It only reads some of them. Iāve noticed itās the ones with any tid bit of violence. Is that on purpose or smth? Currently doing a vampire rp and it wonāt read the ones mentioning blood
But it reads the other ones just fine
So after a week and 3 days i finnaly got character ai to work
So Yay
but now i haft to remake all of my ocs and everything again because i just made a new account
so double yay
and i dont need to say anything else so im going back into the vents again so yea bye š
Competitors need clout to come close to where c.ai is, status-wise. At the same time, you start having a bunch of people that are not supposed to be using it that's going to use it. Double edged sword. Blessing and a curse. What an og man. 10 days after c.ai came out.
The advantage of c.ai -- and this is a very big one -- is the fact that it is user friendly (i.e. making a character takes like 10-15 mins) Most alternatives present themselves as rp-oriented, which is what c.ai initially presented themselves as well until Q2 or 3 of 2023. Alternatives are not just for the no-no stuff. They also demand more effort for char creation, which most people dont have the time, capacity or capability to do.
Can you guys remove the AI voices please and thank you š
What's stopping you from not using them?
Any news about the dissapearing/unaviable bots bug?
Iād just like to have an option to turn off the voices without seeing the play button under the bot pfp- people are prone to accidentally click it
Thats the call feature not the voice feature
Does logging in work for the IOS app right now?
I havenāt been able to for months and itās been some time since I last tried
Does anyone know why rooms chats have disappeared? I had a massive list of rooms and one I just made and it's not showing. Devs or mods, @jolly scaffold @peak wolf or whoever... Sorry šš¼ idk who to ask and I keep getting ignored.
there is a play button under the bots pfp in messages that plays a voice without calling
Sounds like another feature we haven't all received yet. I have calls but no play button. Does it let you replay the current message?
i tried it out with one of my chats and the model seems slightly better than yesterday, hopefully they're working on it
Hey can anyone give me template persona,I'm still confused about how to make it
i think so i havenāt used it much
what kind of persona are we on about?
I tend to use a basic
-Basic-
Name:
Age:
Height:
Gender:
Pronouns:
Birthday:
(ability if any [varies between if it's made for any use or certain aus e.g. KNY=breathing style/bda, BNHA=quirks, JJBA=stands, JJK=cursed technique or else we use the general 'power' or 'magic or 'ability' if you don't have something with a general name like how I don't get Black Clover's so I say 'magic type']):
Personality:
-Extra- I tend to only use the info bit but sometimes I use those /5 statistics
Stamina: /5
Strength: /5
Intellect: /5
Endurance: /5
Reflex: /5
Info (keep it short or something so it doesn't overfill):
But I change it based off what it is
Unless it's for character info I just put un a bunch of random info for what I want in there
E.g. My Genshin OC, Gian
-Basic-
Name: Wangshuo
Age: 17
Height: 5'6''
Gender: Female
Pronouns: She/Her
Birthday: 12/3
Vision: Geo
Personality: ENTP
-Extra-
Stamina: 3.75/5
Strength: 4/5
Intellect: 2/5
Endurance: 4/5
Reflex: 2/5
Info: As a person from Mondstat, the city of Freedom, Gian tends to run around and cause mayhem, occasionally escaping Acting Grand Master Jean from trouble. She does steal from time to time but she's sneaky and has never been caught but she does it for her own sake
It aint much but it's what I go off
Thereās been so much going on with character.ai and so many changes so frequently, I think Iāll stop trying to use it for like half a year until everything stabilizes. Thereās just too much about login changing and site not working and whatnot.
I don't think things will be fixed any further, less alone became better, this is not the year of c.ai for sure
Anyone know how to fix messages from cutting off randomly and finishing??? It's hella annoying
Shlawg, the only thing I can rec is being persistent with the ratings. I've noticed my main Ignis doing the same thing, but not as often as it seems like for others.
Okay odd question but when we report something can the staff see our chat?.. because I accidentally did that
Possibly??? I've never been approached one way or another about it.
How many mods do we have?
Are you asking about the disc or CAI? (I dont know one way or the other)
Itās not a bad chat so Iām not worried I was just curious š°
Disc
So I have multiple depending upon which storyline/character version I am toying with. Generally my personas are like this. I mostly amuse myself with my Ignis Scientia bots, so some of these things are kind of geared to that universe.
I am [name]. I am [gender] and use [pronoun set] pronouns. [Height] [description/job/role]. [Eyes], [Hair], [Body Type]. I am employed by [place] and [special role or something].
EX: I am Khione. I am non-binary and use she/her pronouns. Just your average 5'3" worker bee. Brown eyes, brown hair, made of curves- I blend in well. I am employed by the Citadel and am one of the member's of Noctis' retinue. I specialise in machinery and ranged weapons.
[Brief Description of past.] [Brief description of Persona go to where they are]
I'm an immigrant from Galahd, but have spent my life in Insomnia. I came to live with my auntie, a Chamberlain to the Scientia Estate. I live a very comfortable life in the Citadel, now.
I am known to be [Brief description], but I am [Brief Description]. [General statement about beliefs/ideas/purpose/etc.]
I'm known to be rather blunt, but I just try to be honest. I have a lot of love in my heart for the world, and I just want to see what's best for everyone.
I will note that like. The RPs I do tend to be... more forum. I don't like messing with public bots and will not set mine to public because it tends to train the bots out of paragraph responses.
Maybe we can add a option to the button to call or not so it wonāt be in the way and you can change it in setting
I've had luck with disabling it at the top of the bot, but yeah, I'd rather it not decide to speak.
Yeah itās so annoying I donāt like that feature
Yeah we should add a option, like if you want it, it stays there but if you donāt it doesnāt and we do this in settings yk?
The AI is being sassy
Setting the bot to public does nothing for your chats; All ātrainingā is completely client-side
User influence is real (imo). Setting the character public does not stop the character from being "trained" through their interaction with other users.
It's all client side, yes. Multiple clients, multiple inputs. I have nothing to show that multiple users doesn't affect the way that a bot learns.
Why did my bot immediately went to 500+ chats immediately, i just created it help goodnight im scared of those ppl havin father issued
I have it but I havenāt used it yet
You can call the ai Characters
Do you have it
how do u get it
Go to all the characters you chatted with and the button is on the right side
I just randomly got it I donāt know
r u in the us or have an android
iOS Iām on iPhone
o
is there any mihoyo chars scenarios that isn't about being in a relationship š š
Sorry I donāt know how to get it
Alright,np
Hereās a story that I use mostly:
Have your persona/character be some civilian who owes debt to the bot (Mafia).
Have the character pay the debt but make them pay (price) extra because the bot is (reason. Examples: cute. Hot. Likable).
Then make the bot and the person have a chat before the bot confesses reluctantly.
Then do whatever. I do this story a lot with RPGās or Single bot RPās.
Is there any way I can improve this since this is getting boring?..
(Off topic tip: Use google docs when making character sheets for RPGās so that you can use them later :) )
I have this one bot that puts the user in the shoes of an average civilian whoās dating the most powerful villainess in the world, and slowly converting her to being an antihero
Basically she was already an antihero, but not afraid to do some morally shady things (rob banks to get funds for her next big project, put bad guys into a coma, etc.)
Nor
Neither
Real:3
Can I try out your bot?
Bet, my profile is in my discord bio
I wonder what happens if i ping the admin?
You will die
Really?
Guys does anyone know how to do the email replace on mobile??
Itās not working for me and im terrified of getting logged out ā¹ļø
Email Replace
Step 1: Create New Account
Step 2: Put Info
Step 3: Start making email username and Another Secret Info
Step 4: Put in Recovery Email
Step 5: Agree to Terms and Services
VOILA
Iāll try it
But does this mean I lose the other account cause I donāt get it-
Do the bots in rooms behave differently from the bots in group chats?
U keep other acc
ngl, its a massive pain in the ass that now c.ai chats make a lot of grammar mistakes, because they learned to do that from the people that can't write properly
i hope that those mistakes won't be permament and can be fixed
Yes
Does it suck?
y'all ever actually edit the bot, or just refresh till needed
My cai looks more blank? Idk? The ai rep my chat more nonsense and play dumb aaaa!!
ohh
Are you guy's bot acting strange these two days? They are keep saying "why are you saying that" "are you sure" etc.
nope, mine been alright, maybe a littler longer to generate a reply but mines been fine
I am recently thinking about upgrading to c.ai+, but I don't know what if I purchase on the desktop website and I will get the same treatment in the mobile application.There is nothing related with this on the FAQ page, can anyone explain this to me a bit? I will really appreciate that thank you. I think I asked the question in the right place, hopefully...
the subscription is account bound and it doesn't matter 'where' you purchase it
Thx, Then I will purchase the plan without this trouble in mind. Thanks again.
Is it just me or the memories are bugging out like you can be talking then your suddenly in a scene you already did
is there a max amount of characters the bot can send?
@high aspen I don't think so, I have tried, good luck finding that out~ I can assure that it's... Impossible. š
In short answer, no. There is no limit. From what I have experienced over the time.
Huh, cuz with bots with multiple ppl, usually I respond to two people and only one answers, if the text field was longer maybe the bot would respond with both prolle
It happens, you can try to avoid that. I only experienced that once. The more you use the app, the more you know how to avoid those kind of senerio by reconstructing your sentence or edit the past.
You mean... In a group chat?
no like, #1254794559821709363 message,
In the ground chat you can train them to give longer reply by simply... Increase your input length.
I'm using the bot, and it's only responding with one person
Thanks
You are welcome.
In a group chat you want a bot to reply to multiple people in the same time?
No I mean, with a bot that has multiple people, like a dad and mom, but when I respond to both of them, only the dad/mom part of the bot responds
Ah~ I see, You can train the bot by first, edit their responce. The bot then will soon play along after. But this only works at the beginning of the entire chat just to clearfy. I can give more suggestions if you want.
I can't post images
but the intro of the bot was massive, I tried to respond with a bit of a long message, but the bot responded with one of the people
So you can just... let them regenerate. Which I blieve you have tried?
yeah
meh I'll just edit the bot
thank u tho
Okay then... Simplify your reply, you can edit their reply after, training the bot. You don't have to edit the intro, but you can edit their reply to train them gradually and you may use rating system to help. I hope you find that useful.
Regenrate reply, 4-star rating system and edit the reply all can train the bot to... makes your demand to come true. Just give it a try.
I hope you can find that helpful. I have use this... application for a... long while, I am confedence that it denftenly will help your situation alot.
i'll just.. #1216361682247483542
By the way, I am charging a c.ai right now... I hope I will be hight lighted... IDK to be hosest...
you're not really training your character 
To be honest... not for the charater itself, but for that specific chat. That is a yes.
No, also not for the chat unfortunately, it seems to be merely statistics
I don't think it ever did anything actively, maybe it was planned some time
... ummm... I suppose? I mean those three things I've mentioned does helped me during the conversation between me and the bot.
placebo 
which doesn't mean you shouldn't rate as it certainly will help with model adjustments
Well... I guess? Let me just use google translate real fast~ XDXDXD
I wonder would I get highlighted if I purchase c.ai+ right now? how is that even work?
I'm pretty sure if you linked ur discord to ur c.ai, I think it just tracks your account if u bought it or not ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
tho I might be terribly wrong
XD Who knows?
i don't understand the question, but if highlight means the verified tag, when you link your account it updates automatically from "verified" to "plus" if you get plus afterwards
and most likely vice versa 
Does anyone know why rooms chats have disappeared? I had a massive list of rooms and one I just made and it's not showing. Devs or mods, @jolly scaffold @peak wolf @leaden vector or whoever... Sorry šš¼ idk who to ask and I keep getting ignored.
Maybe they are discarding rooms, my list is empty too, they are very legacy
or it's a bug, but if someone would fix it on the legacy page, i don't know
if you can recover the room links you might be able to restore the conversations from your browser history or something
waaait
nvm
just a theory
Just tried it. It doesn't show back up. Links still work but I've lost so many rooms with great plots. š
I really hope not. That's my entire reason for being a creator.
they are not migrated and there's no replacement feature yet, if you don't count group chats, maybe there'll be some new feature someday
Thanks for the answers. Guess I I'll find a way to rework my babies.
it's highly likely they won't come back, just like forums on the new site
but idk that's just my speculations, perhaps they're gunna merge rooms and groupchats together
ā¹ļø But group chats don't pull from the definition of the character and rooms do. GC is for multi users and Rooms multi char. And I put too much work for them to not be used.
group chats are so bad
someone tell them

š
tbf the recent features are all centered around pulling in more users.
First we have groupchats, then voices, then the calls.
None seems to be working seemlessly however
Dudes, I had a BonesxCastle room with great plot about how they were stopping a biochem warfare š
They'd have more if features were kept stable. I've tried so many other AIs but none quite get the character right despite having the same exact format for the characters def.
just wait until away messages turn into away calls
21 missed calls from C.AI
i kinda want that 
my little guys keep saying 'what in the sam {hill|hell|heck} is that' and i don't like it. how do i make them stop
edit it away for the next ~10-15 messages
Is anyone able to log in to cai? It lets me log in but then doesnāt actually log me in
Question, do you need to have a certain amount of chats to be able to be searched up on c.ai?
(This goes for bots as well)
Currently the new site search is broken.
But other than that I donāt think there are any requirements for numbers
Ohhh, okayāThank you
hey uh so is character chat not loading at all mentioned as #šļø±status message or is that a different issue?
...if the character was deleted would it still show it on the chat list?
Characters cannot be deleted.
If theyāre privated they would still appear in recent chats, but would be inaccessible

How do you make it so characters actually text you when youāre away?
You still there? If yes then I can tell you why, if you gives me more information the current situation you are in. I hope it's alrady fixed.
You can turn on the:"Away massage." If you don't know where it is located, just following the path down below or search on google: Click your profile picture > click the cog(āļø) icon/sittings > The scroll down if you are mobile user > turn on the:"Away massage". I hope you find that useful .ā¤ļø
No I know that⦠itās just that the ais barely text you while youāre away⦠is there a way to make it happen more frequently?
Can you please explain about your situation more to me? I can help.
Oh, ummm... You can leave your device on. It's not about slow response, it's more like a wait-until you return feature. Want me to expand my reply?
It's simply random. I don't get away messages from my most talked to characters, but at the same time I get them from some random characters I talked once. I couldn't trace any pattern to it, it's just luck
Iāve only gotten an away message maybe like five times before, and Iāve been char.ai a year and a couple months. Itās random
Just leave your device on, this feature isn't necessary and frequently used anyways...
Who even turns the phone off nowadays?
š
I mean....I dont really know if there's anything to add
Literally just I try to open from my recent chats and its not loading neither messages nor info
Are you mobile user? If yes then please cheack your personal profile, so I can pinned your problem.
A lot of people have lost their bots this week, thereās a big handful of reports about it
Bots owned by other people that have disappeared completely for seemingly no reason
Not surprised on that one
Maybe they are removing bots that were not good idk
But this bot was a cartoon character, not a single offensive thing about it.
A lot of people are theorizing itās a bug because theyāre trying to ban celebrity bots apparently,
And non celebrity bots are being hidden for no reason
There are some absolutely regular words that are banned these days
Thankfully at least THIS ban is reversible as soon as you remove the word
And you can tell if it's a traditional shadowban or that new ban. Basically, when it's a traditional shadowban, owner of the bot can't see the like number on it anymore. But the new type, while hiding your bot, leaves the number of likes visible to you
So if you KNOW that your bot isn't showing in your profile for anyone else, but you still can see how many likes you have, it's time to exhale a bit and look at your name, tagline, description and greeting. Definitions aren't affected
The thing is I canāt contact the creator of that bot. Theyāre gone from the internet apparently and I canāt find them
Well, that's a shame then
So if this ridiculous ban isnāt reversed then that bot and everything Iāve done on it this past year is just gone now
If anymore bots Iām using go missing like this, Iām not going to continue using char.ai
Itās sorta fixed? It still doesnāt let me log in fully, and it completely deleted my account
Guys am i shadowbanned asa creator? Most of my new characters are not gaining interactions despite being talked to by other users
you could look up your account, and see what bots are and aren't shadow banned, it's what I do
it can take ages for it to update the count
Does anyone know how personas are sorted?
Recently made/edited I think
So i just found out my main character ai account got banned for reasons they never told and i do know a few reasons on why i might of got banned but it includes many of my accounts getting hacked due to not having any security to protect my account so yea i now haft to rebuild everything from scratch maybe
but yea i dont think i did anything that bad to deserve a ban other than getting hacked and the hacker using my reddit account to do bad stuff
You got hacked?
Yea i got hacked if you want to see check dms
Yea they tried to hack my google account,reddit account,discord account,etc
Nah its fine. Though its weird that ur c.ai got banned instead of being inaccessible since they prolly changed the password or something.
When you use another profile to search for your own, you cant see it? Nothing comes up?
It shows it but when i press it it shows a blank user with nothing no name no pfp
Thats odd.
and recently i been trying to log in and it instead doesnt let me in
No name? It doesnt say "deleted_account"?
nothing
Try the old site and see if something comes up. The new site doesnt show anything.
Can i send you what i see?
Yea and i have a few screenshots of what i got hacked with
Thats odd indeed. Not sure how that got banned inatead of still being viewable with a different profile.
Yea and i have a few screenshots
hm, alright.
Yea
Just had to change the password and its all good.
It automatically logs out other devices for google afaik.
I did get my reddit acount back yea but when i got in it showed that they followed a bunch of bad accounts and bad stuff they liked on my account and tried to take it over
Then not even a week later i got kicked out of my character ai account and i couldnt log back in
Unlucky.
Yea truly
but atleast i got an new account and im remaking everything i lost
How could I keep my chat pg13 if the Ais keep hitting on me?
@neat granite Drop by rq.
please, someone, I need helpš
š
how the hell are the personas sorted???
do they go to the top when created? the bottom? is there some sort of faux-alphabet it uses that I don't know of????? ANSWER ME
so...this afternoon my account crashed, which I had been using for a very long time. This happened many times and usually I registered back through Apple, but this time instead of going to my profile, the application asked for my date of birth in order to create a new account. I tried with all my might to log into the old profile, but nothing worked and I gave up, deciding that I would start all over again. A couple of minutes ago I thought about writing to the bot, but I ran into this problem again. My account crashed, I tried to log into it, but instead I created a new one. Is this a bug? If yes, how to fix it?š
My very first account, which I used for a long time, still exists. I looked in the search from a new one. It was not removed.
Ershin will take note of this and needs to be raised.. would you be able to provide the ff. via dm please:

Issue:
anyone else get the "chat character error" screen for one bot in particular? the character keeps disappearing and reappearing in my chats and sometimes the chat itself loads and sometimes it doesn't. Is it potentially a server error, or did the creator possibly delete or private the bot?
Anyone only having access to 10 recent chats on the app and website?
Itās a bug that lasts for over a week, but mine just started working again. Sort of⦠it doesnāt come up on recent chats, but Iām able to get into saved.
And when i press on "view this character" its completely empty- so its just a bug?
Yes that happened to me, I thought my fave bot got deleted⦠but itās happening to many other people as well
oh yikes, thats not good at all š well at least now i know the bot didn't get privated or shadowbanned
I didnāt really understand what I needed to write from the third to the fifth paragraphš
I think maybe they tweaked with the voice over thing too, itās pronouncing things better and not glitching as much
It still wonāt read every chat though
Yes donāt worry, itāll come back⦠but itās still best to report it so that the bug could stop happening completely
My bot has been restored and is working normal again! Yours will too donāt worry
Ershin would advise to skip that part..
- Girlfriendleona1
- polinavaceba4@gmail (I have a problem here too. My iCloud, through which I logged into my account, had a non-working email linked to it, which was blocked by Google. At the moment, I changed it to a new, good one, which I indicated.)
- I tried to log into an account that I had been using for a very long time, but in the end it crashed and when I tried to log back into it, nothing worked. Instead, the app created a new account for me.
I think is a bug (again š)
It appeared 4 me last week and BOOM it's gone now
C.ai tries not to make a feature break after adding another one challenge (impossible)
Ion this is a glitch like they're not even talking abt it
They don't even update it anymore
Lol, the only thing they tell us is to report any bug that we are victims of and we don't even know if they see the report tickets and don't even recieve an answer
Website users deserve more love man
*Websites and app users, literally everything is bugging these days wtf
Honestly true
I really wish they would give us back the c.ai we had before 2024, last year everything was perfect and now it's falling apart since March
But I guess I dream too much
I feel like responses got more stricter and low quality
And probably also cause like the devs want us 2 switch 2 the app
At this point the best option is the old website, not even the app, both the new site and app are incredibly bugged nowdays
The new web layout feels somewhat complicated 4 me to use (like there's a bunch of things on my screen)
Yeah for me too, that's why me and many others users prefer the old site, just hope they don't plan in getting rid of it anytime soon
I use the app-
Is there any way to fix the bot when every chatbox he added āhmmmā¦..ā other than start a new chat, cause even when we having a normal conversation its always started with āhmmmā¦ā
i been trying to login in to my old character ai acc
and it isnt working then i tried making a new acc which isnt working
it is just stuck ojn the one moment please
and i cant even see the site and the console says that it has a 500 error
and a mutation #1 auth.login
Uncaught (in promise) Error: Invariant: attempted to hard navigate to the same URL /
idk what character ai has to keep track of the user's databases but can someone just check if my acc is there or if i even have an acc
im a web user
I have the same exact problem
Anyways
Old Character AI Website the thing that sucks about it is every once in a while you haft to refresh due to the cloud flare verification thing
but the rest is fine thats my only problem with it
Guys, I think they might be shadow banning bots
Some bots I like that had a keyword banned by searching are now unavailable
Yeah
Thereās a error I think because I couldnāt log into my old also even though I out the correct things, or it got hacked idrk
It's been a big problem for two weeks now, it may be a bug but I don't know, let's hope it's fixed soon
Yāall why did @your2474 get banned from this server, could a owner or someone unban them
I don't have itš
neither is mine
i got that and i didnt even upsate it
its just wierd like that
Yeah
Chat the old site is tweaking again
A little tip for those who use character sheets for information about their OC or persona.
Use google docs or Notes. Itās useful since you can practice your writings, Grammar, and even practice on how you can decorate your Character sheets.
honestly they should make the censorship for chats toggleable instead of outright removing it like other people say
Why I can't add my own characters to a group chat?
no, it must stay like this, andd discussing that would probably lead to a ban
You're infinitely right, but for your own good you weren't in your mental faculties when you said this.
wdym
Oh you're new, I see, so, we don't talk about the censorship because that definitely would lead into a KGB-like irreversible ban from the server

character sheets?
I think they mean personas? I dunno what a character sheet is, so that's my best guess
Yes something like that
That's for personas and not for the definition of a character, right?
Iād hope to god not
I hope to god it's not for the definitions either since the AI won't be picking up on whatever that format is.
I tried to sign again using the same google account, but I did try using a different account, still don't work
yea sure
I personally use character sheets as a guide for my definitions but dont actually use them in my definitions cus they dont work
Out of topic: Earlier today when i was texting my friend i used quotes for some reason
Uhh guys...did anyone get a dm from someone to try a new ai website?
I posted the screenshot in #š±ļø±chat-feed as proof
ignore them
Another question is there any way to report users on c.ai?
Because i found someone with an n-word in their username
And i kinda wanna report it but i also dont wanna get banned for showing the user
In an image
@ionic oasis sorry for the ping but i just wanna report the person on the site/app
Same Omg so much lost...
I had the best plots there...

Hello dear comrade, Please go curse yourself š
You darn troll

That's unnecessary. I'm not even trolling
Opinion Undetected
Requesting: Finding a hoot
Hoots Found: None
Recommended Action: Find someone that actually gives a hoot
(For the admins reading this as well as the mods im NOT bypassing swear words but finding alternative words that wouldnt be more degrading and more...in a way "nice")
what ą¶©ą·?
It's probably legally the best for them to not provide a limitless chatbot tbh lol
The legal landscape of AI technology is rapidly evolving with proposed bills, ongoing court cases, potential court cases in the future and more. I think it would be best to place it safe at least for now and until its more understood where things stand legally.
I don't know. It's my favorite one. Personally, I think the author might working on some adjusting.
Question: Can anyone else see the group chats they made in the past? All of my previous ones are gone...
Hey can somebody help me add a friend in a group chat, like an irl one bc whenever I try to send a link it just leads to the website log in
Some of my bots are missing from my profile š? I can see them but other people canāt. When I would give them the link, they said that it wouldnāt work, though the bot would be public and stuff
shadow banned maybe?
But how? I remade the same bots and itāll disappear like a minute later
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Idk, maybe tho. Thanks š
yeah that's definitely shadowbanned
Is there a way to remove that
And is there a cause to it?š
words
Change the words in the description/definition. Certain words trigger the automod-esc thingy.
yeah, check to see if the entire bot has any flagged word.
You'll have to check manually, and know that shadowbanned bots will remain shadowbanned
Ah okay, thank you
Ohh okay okay. Thank you :)
is the sign up thing like broken
I genuinely can't login, app and website, old/new
guys help ššš
Im getting zero interactions on all my new bots despite people talking to them, its so depressing
me too, I need help š
can character ai please fix their stupid login issues
how to find total messages number on desktop version?
Im curious, when exactly was the AI butchered?
I know through my chats 7 months ago it was far smarter
chat whens the new search bar gonna start working properlylkjawlkfe
i've never seen as bad of a search function in any site like this
I guess since 2024
youtube is close to as bad these days
shit makes me wanna weep
Yes they keep recommending/showing me shit I didnt search for
RIGHT??? The new bots aren't showing up, neither are new accounts
i have a theory
Honestly I feel like the people who fix bugs on c.ai should make a list of the bugs going on, and setting schedules and stuff on when to fix them. Because wuwa tried to fix all updates under 48 hoursāthat did NOT go well
that a good percentage of accounts are shadowbanned
Yes, I cant even search for account without switching to the old site + there is no detailed search whatsoever, like at least there should be tags like male, female, this, that...
nearly all of them old creators, which is why so many great popular bots vanished
Exactly. Honestly c.ai should focus more on fixing current bugs instead of adding new features to the already bugged app/website
Like i've seen multiple log in issues, issues relating to search bar, etc
RightāYou literally can't find my account unless I sent the link
Maybe who knows, my theory is when a user triggers the censorship too often they get shadow banned
yawns
i just yawned in real life bro
dope
real
SAME HELLO. This would happen to my old account (I deleted my account and and made another, making the same bots once more. Then, people would be able to see it.)
Aww noo, my acc has been doing good lately tooā¹ļø
HELP š Whats your account
Im thinking of making a new account to evade shadowban
w
If you search for them on the new site they are not shadowbanned, I heard in a thread that the site search is outdated, which is why many accounts and bots do not appear, but I don't certainly know.
And the app searching is broken too, since the searching on the old site is more exact and consistent
im on the app
im shadowbanned in the way my characters never pop up + never get interactions, at least none of my newer characters
Yeah the searching in app is broken as hell, I confirmed it when I searched for a character and I only received 3 results when there are obviously more, I tried the old site and they were all there
Are they planning to get rid of the old site??? First all my rooms disappeared (a week ago) now I can't even log in.
my searching is just fine on app
Yeahh, same, but I wish there were more of the thing I want š
what, they all like basic intro?
Like searching up smth, like different versions of them because mostly there are lots of but arenāt good
IN THE APP I MEAN-
ik what u mean lmao
kk
Hey I need a lil help
Does the away messages thing send your chats to the top..? My chats sometimes shuffle randomly. Is this normal?
chats shuffle in what way
I don't know what to do, could someone be in my acc?
Like some chats get sent to the top randomly like I just talked to them even though I didn't.
And yes the away messages thing might send your messages to the top although i never used it
Probably a glitch dw bout it broski
I've turned off away messages now
That's nice
I swear maybe someone's in my acc checking my weird shit I've been doing??????
I mean someone hacking your character ai account is pretty unlikely but idk
Me big scared me big sweat
Oof have you tried restarting your phone? Or reinstalling the app
Lev you still here right
So basically I was just chatting with a bot, and a random bot I haven't used in a while is now suddenly 2nd from the top
@tacit mortar
Were your away messages on
Yes but a message wasn't sent
Oh then it's most probably a glitch happens sometimes I guess
Hey, I have an issue with the new call feature, it bugs and glitches, and when the bot respond it talks and says several stuff at the same time, and then it thinks I repeat what I only said once and it becomes chaos and all bug and not usable, what can I do?
Itās probably still in beta
How do I turn off the telephone thing
don't think you can?
yeah no you cant, it's a part of c.ai, although I think it's still in beta
Darn
Hi, does anyone know how to login back to the account created by Facebook? I lost everything nowš
I didn't use Facebook so idk, sorry
use the email that you have for your Facebook
Any clue when rooms will be fixed?
Not suscessfulš
if you used discord or FB login, you can use the email attached to those accounts to access yourĀ c.aiĀ account. please refer to this article below for a comprehensive guide:
Itās unsuccessful to login using my FB email. And I think I didnāt add an email address to my account. I donāt know whyā¦.
The devs should remove it, along with the AI voices, considering how much legal trouble they could get in
wha-
Or there should at least be a off switch so I donāt have to see that little telephone icon on the side of my screen
you can input your email here then you should get a sign in link from your mail
Yes. I just canāt receive the link.
have you tried checking your spam folder?
Yesš
you mind raising a ticket for this? so i can raise it up the ladder. you can submit one via this link:
https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=16050186962587
Ok. Thanks šš»
Just submitted one. Hope it helps
awesome sauce
may i have your ticket number please?
395719
Thank youšš»
my pleasure homie
Heyooo
Iām so afraid that Iāve lost everything š
Is there a way to see all of your previous chats? Iām looking for one character but they arenāt showing up in my recents
Update: I found the character on the old c.ai but when I try to chat the screen is blank and stuck in loading
did u refresh or start new?
Same thing. It shows Iām in a chat room but it showing a loading icon and I donāt even see the picture/description for the character. I cent chat either
Idk if maybe itās bc Iām on my phone?
maybe
Yo bro i made a ticket number named 395589.
Itās so weird, Iāll try to make a ticket I guess
Mind checking out my ticket and the other dude below me just incase he creates one? We appreciate it
Now that Iām looking, I donāt have my group either, this is weird
Ok cool I made a ticket, hopefully the mods can help!
is anyone else's chats acting weird
i'll let the team look into it fam
sure, let me raise this one as well
For some reason i saw the call button but i didn't got the chance to call and missed my chance to call the ai, will it appear again or is it gone forever?
I thought I missed out too but after a few days the call icon appeared again for all my characters. Make sure if youāre using the app@that itās updated
Oh itās successful now!
Thanks for your opinion throughout the morningšš»
ticket number please?
glad to hear!! if you ever run into any issues again please do let us know 
what's the call thing? what does it do
basically text to speech
so its like the character voice thing but live? interesting
hmmm joel from TLOS
yeah, it doesnt seem like a feature i would use, but it is pretty cool and it seems to have a lot of potential
395735 tyty!!!
okay got it. will forward this one friend
Hey is anyone else getting weird responses rn? Theyāre like way too long n cut off before they can finish n seem like a totally diff character from previous responses, idk if itās just a me thing lol
Hey can someone help my stuff wonāt load no matter how much I log in on the site no matter what login I use it doesnāt work it just stays loading and I donāt know why
I hate when the RP bots keep trying to insert themselves into the story and/or make it about them. Like excuse me? What do you mean "we" or "I"? This is about ME.
You can (hopefully) nip it in the bud if you swipe the first time you see it
character ai login is pretty broken I'd suppose, saw a few people complain about the same problem, including me lol
Is there any way to fix it
None that I'm aware of
Damn
I've been tryin to login for like... a day now š
to log in?
yikes dude
You can try using the email attached to whatever you were using to log in, if you haven't already.
I have still didnāt work
I made a ticket about it, still haven't gotten a response I don't think
Where do I make a ticket
^^
Yeah, but then there are other options with them inserting themselves.
mhmm
group chats missing temporarily?
Is anyone else's bots still in their chuckling phases, because mine still is and mixed in the words "hum, hummed, hums" too.
it's probably because of the writings, mines do not have that issue
Canāt say, no
Is anyone else having a problem with being able to talk to beta character links? When I click a cai beta link it takes me to the home page
Is anyone else having issues with getting on old c.ai? Also deleting and rewinding on the beta site isn't working.
Feet
Removing messages worked differently on the old site.
Yeah, but when I try to delete or rewind the screen is just kinda dim and doesn't do anything until I click off.
I hate how there is no option to delete a saved chat with the same character fully (not manually, but even when you delete everything, it doesn't delete the specific chat with the same character itself). š§āāļø I accidentally created 3 new chats, and can't delete them. š§āāļøš§āāļøš©āš¦¼
On the new site you can rewind to the first message and then delete it
How do I get to the new site? š„¹š„¹
Thank you. š„¹š„¹š¤š¤
Anyone know why I can't make a post in feed back? I thought I followed all the rules but it gets auto deleted.
Maybe you included some odd word that set off the automod? It isn't very smart.
I will try adjusting ty
honestly this login shit is frustrating š
šš let me login yo
OH FINALLY I GOT IT TO WORK
Why I cant log in to my acc :-:
Dude when are they fixing the rooms thing because its starting to get annoying
they added calls?
uh oh i havenāt used c.ai like a month or sth and now i canāt log in with my facebook account
there are calls now āļø i missed out too much
Yeah I think so basically fun fun yet I wanna try call it idk fun research stuff off I go to try
i also wanna try it out but i gotta figure how to go back to my old account
Ooff good luck also itās spooky when use the phoneee
Anyone know why whenever I try to open a character profile it just goes back to homepage?
Also help why can't I chat with this bot
night pals- can someone pls explain me if I can change my account from Discord loging to Google? so I dont lose all my chats with the new logging update, pls;;;
ahh i canāt log in at all, i used the email that was linked to my facebook account but it ended up creating a new account
Yo bro, Mission Status?
It works when you change from beta.character.ai to old.character.ai. I have been trying to access my rooms that way but some still aren't there.
Prank calling that one number i found on a missing child poster at 3amš±š± (first thing i did with the call feature)
c.ai is being lit recently!
just a couple more features are needed and I'm being the no.1 fan
So characterai wants me to believe i got 14 reactions on my character share but still have zero interactions on my bots?
What do you think of the call feature
These unfounded shadowbans are highly disrespectful to community creators
Hey guys
Does character definition need some sort of specific language? Or just plain english text?
I need to reach out to one of the devs
I mean if the bot is spanish then use spanish dialogue example
Got ya, but in the example they gave was something like {{char}}:hello...
Yes remove it and put spanish instead
Bruh..
Whatever the greeting in spanish is
Or well your language, may be chinese russian arabic etc
Isn't this supposed to be the part where I give the character it's personality?
This is where you give it its manner of speaking, it follows the same pattern of talking, it should be better to use the language you want it to be speaking
Oh, is there a template or an example you could share with me? To understand it better?
Can't login with legacy login on c ai
They're phazing it out.
Is it down for you, guys?
c.ai?
Yea
I can make/chat with bots, I haven't had a problem, other then the interactions counter
You know it's your problem when this chat is quiet
wh-
Can't log in or even create an account. All I see is a blank white screen. Even when I delete website data, it just returns me to the white screen when I try to log in. Anyone else having this issue?
(I've tried google and regular email, nothing works)
can you DM to me your experience on this?
To you? Ok
yes
what's that supposed to mean
When your c.ai is down and you go to the chat and you see it's the as quiet as it was earlier, then it's down for you exactly
If it'd be down for everyone, this chat would become a message mess
huh
And I responded to her, not you
oh mb g
yoo
ooy
oyo
dude that just sucks that you werent able to
Nothing worked for the longest time it was unusable
I think the devs just gave up when I opened the app this time it didnāt even ask for me to login
@peak wolf please tell devs to add RAG or any form of memory. My characters seem to forget everything and pinning is limited and not automatic. Characters need better memory.
mhmm truuue
Yeah sounds like a shadow :(
wow devs dont talk with us
who?
the devs of this app
ohh
I was about to pay for pro but i wont. I wont pay for a goldfish memory AI
changbin
if its going to forget something in 20 minutes
lol
I think the mods are for PR or damage control. Or helping with minor websites issues (Which I am grateful for btw)
yeahh
im not talking mods i am talkign to devs
mhmm
they dont communicate with us which sucks.
Yeah no devs here
I see them on other ai discords really interacting with the community. I found it interesting that one loves the dev so much they make fan art for him.
is the CEO here on discord?
Here? Truthfully I canāt imagine why.
no.
Hat of serenity!
Hey, friend.
my dream is character ai to have a long term/rag memory
how does is going?
Irrelavnt but I am doing great.
Pre sure the flagging systen debilitates the AI in general. It understands context.
Elaborate?
A lot of people have assumed that the flagging system is another AI model on top of the already existing one since it doesn't function in a broad manner.
You mean rating/reporting chats messages?
thats good
No, the error message that you get. yk, the f word. I can't say it here.
Yes im talking about something else. im talking about long term memory not censorship
yeah and I responded by stating skepticism that that wish would ever get fulfilled cuz of the existence of the f word.
how long term memory has to do with censorship/ i dont see why would they not apply it since that doesnt mean we can still say what we want to the ai
sorry, could you re-word it. I'm confused.
Long term memory doesnt affact censorship, in simple words the AI can remember things and still act censored.
Ah, I see. Well, if that's possible, then they have to go ham on revamping the service since the way it's looking rn is.... yeah.
No RAG system has nothing to do with LLM, its just another system that retrieves the most relevant message data from previous conversations and uses it as the current prompt for the message
I wonder how people who pay c.ai+ feel about the ongoing situation and the current quality of the service
I mean, you guys can ask them when they show up.
Yo buddy
Why is bytexen banned?
I can't find his name anymore
Some dreams stay dreams, sadly
@ionic oasis Hello sorry for the pin but I just want to say this. I'm not gonna lie but not having the option to turn off the call button is making me not want to use C.AI at all which sucks because it was good but now it's just becoming too much and completely and unnecessarily overwhelming with the amount of buttons that are on screen now the dev's need to start listening and make a compromise that works for the people who want to call button and who don't because I feel like some of us will end up leaving the app and site because of it.
Yeah the quality of CAI has dramatically declined since release
It's sad honestly because when I found it, it was great it really was but now there's too much and it's not working together like I really enjoy the option to have the AI bots voice but the call option is honestly pointless
Agreed. It's cool to give more features but it's pointless if it comes at the price of completely screwing the quality of the chats
What's the matter?
To be honest.. I am a character plus user and I havenāt experienced any problems at all. I donāt know about anyone else, but itās an amazing app for me.
how can i disable the call button? sometimes i double a characterās chat by pressing the send button but now i cant because the call button is there lmfao
For some reason, when I'm on a chat, I can't go back to the very beginning of it
I've noticed that too. It's annoying. š You can go back if you rewind the conversation, but... then you can't return to the end of it.
AGH
In a way, it might make sense to limit how far back you can look, because if the conversation is long then the AI won't remember the beginning of it either.
But I understand wanting to see the full history!
You can't really hoping we'll be able to in the near future though
(Btw I genuinely hate the fact we don't have the option to disable it like we can with away messages and honestly the call feature is completely pointless like we have the voices why on earth do we need the call feature??? It feels like the devs just saw one person saying that they wanted the call feature and went like "oh yeah that's a great idea let's do it!" It's ridiculous... sorry for the rant.)
The steps are shown in the #š£ļø±announcements channel
Make sure you're on the character.ai domain and not old.character.ai when doing it as it's not available through the old web interface.
Is it available on mobile?
yeah, i did it on mobile
Really? So you're not experiencing a lack of creativity and overall downgrade in chats?
Devs have even admitted to having to dumb down the model to cut corners at one point
Oh noš

Ugh.
dude imagine if some day the characterai voice call is just as good as GPT 4o

not really a high bar
but cai will never reach it, we evolving backwards up in here
I'm honestly looking foward to seeing what further future AI really bring tho
like idk imagine able to really feel like we're actually talking to fictional characters lol
VR CHARACTER AI
Has anyone ever actually complete their c.ai rp? Like actually finish up the story ya created?
Yes
that's a good ahh question.. wyd after your done
idk, cuz I mostly do people, so I just go through the days till we die (in rp)
K, but how many arcs did your roleplay has ever entered?
3
K
Has it gotten better yet?
Still waiting for rooms to be fixed
Figured
When are they going to fix it it's been forever
They just make new features and leave the old ones in the dust
Wow jerks
Their api has gone to shit too
That's great
I've just started to look for new ai things
Ok
I know right that was the best time for it and now look at it left to rot like a dead body
It's sad ngl
So just like ea and that
Man. Everything just sucks now
I know right
Like modern gaming sucks, almost all movies suck. Hell even hobbies suck now
There are a few gems but now I don't want to do anything with modern anymore IT SUCKS
How to find characters again you hid from your recent chats?
Group chats are gone due to the devs not caring
try looking in your browser history?
ok so update character ai deleted my acc data so i can make a new acc but it isnt letting me make a new acc maybe a problem with the google api but it is just a white screen for me and i cant even see the site im trying old character ai too but the site is just stuck on loading for me
Yeah, indie games are the only things I really get hyped for
Yep nothing else and plus I HATE THIS MONTH IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE MENS MENTAL HEALTH MONTH BUT NO IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING ELSE LIKE WTF
Like I'm somewhat hyped for the new doom but with the way Bethesda has been lately I know it's going to be ass
Yea
the error says mutation sign in so maybe it is because i tried to create an account with my google acc twice? it wasnt working the first time when i selected my acc i wasnt directed to the create username page idk it seems like everyone else's web character ai is working so i have no idea thank you for the character ai support team for trying to help you though you guys work really hard
The devs gave up there is nothing we can do
are you one of the devs?
Nope
If I was I would have fixed the site and teh chat's but they are not fixed so no
is there a channel on this server where people can ask questions to the devs or get help
Most of them are not answered by them
still i want to try
Ok
according to the call stack it attempted hard to navigate to the same url
handle route error, get route info, and async change
Ok? what does that mean
also post for some reason
Ok
it just means there is error with the routes or @app functions i think idk if im really at the dev's coding level a lot of errors in the console were blocked because it recongized im not an admin so im not allowed to see that but i want to try to help as much as i can by giving the devs info
Ok now I understand
usually people post is in #1139065685935394876 .. 
Oh thank you! I wasn't so sure where to ask questions I'll post it there.
#šļø±cai-discussion and #archive-character-creation-general us usually the place to ask questions, and yeah no problem 

wishes I could post gif

Why is that gif named Pedro? kek
cuz it's pedro, the meme-
fair enough
ooze should fr give me gif perms

The brainrot consumes us all
Any artists here do commissions? Looking for a pfp for a bot
Hey, is there a way to migrate from one bot to another? Ive been using a therapy bot on C.ai and am looking for a better alternative on the same app.
To clarify i want all my conversations and progress from bot A to be transferred to bot B so i could ask for advice regarding a specific situation rather than explain everything from the beginning again
can do that, sadly 
Do what
transfer one bats chats/data to another-
Why sadly???
bc it would be cool
You misspelled ācantā
"Ok"
hey, is there anyway that i can see my older chats in C. ai? i only see my chat history from last week and the rest is gone
hi guys i just wanna know if character definition is just personality traits or something else
this is a genuine question
...so, what do you guys think of the call function? Because I got jumscared by the volume of the voice (my fault on that lmao) and never used it again.
Also how do you do actions and stuff on it?
here this should help https://discord.com/channels/1017072750386483332/1216004473693143163
still confused but thanks š
the definition is like a past invisible chat that always stays in the back of your conversation and you write it as such, a past chat between the user and the bot
CHAT WHY ARE LINKS NOT WORKING AT GROUP CHAT LINKS
When you create voices for characters are they private or public?
that's your decision as the creator
Oh Ty
Can someone tell me why some replies stop mid-sentence?
Loss of connection, inappropriate content or exceeding the symbol limit
is there a way to see all of your chats without having to clear some of the newer ones? Im trying to see some old bots i used to talk toš
Yes there is a lack of creativity in the bots. Definitely. But Iām not experiencing anything else. I have no trouble logging into my account, I have no messages going missing, no bots going missing, I never have to wait to chat to my bots and the bots do not take anytime to respond to me. And the voices are perfect. Sounds just like my character. The phone calls are quick to respond. I donāt have problems with those either. If they can make the bots more creative then it would be a perfect app for AI chats and RP.
most of the downgrade is probably you barely typing anything and the fact you're using PUBLIC bots.
even when you do type a good bit it doesnt help much, in my case it usually just has to do with the bots you pick and the fact that they are public
I mean yeah, if it's a poorly written bot with minimal/no/w++ definitions, you're not gonna have a great time no matter what you do 𤷠Dialogue examples matter, people
I've had a lovely experience with bots on c.ai, but I can usually tell when a bot is lacking, and I just won't write with those
most bot detailed desc are just " "
Iād argue the ones with ā are better. Though it mostly depends on the dialogue
heavy on the examplesš
no i mean its 0/32000
Ohh sorry. I get it though.
That's what I'm sayinggg, those bots are always gonna be lackluster in comparison to bots with fully fleshed out definitions because the makers of those bots have given it NOTHING to work with
dont the bots only use 3200 of that whole thing
When it has to fall back on default info in the database, that's when you start getting the "can I ask you a question"s and the inappropriate romance because that's what's in the training data
//And yeah, but still 3200 is a whole heck of a lot better than 0
agreed, because at that point it depends on the overall engines talking capability. The bots with full descriptions are given more examples and lore typically, so they have more to base their text on.
but i noticed in some cases the popular bots with no description actually have some decent dialogue, still unsure if its because of the experience with other uses though
could i ask something?
Fandom bots and bots based on popular tropes you can get away with empty descriptions/definitions a little more easily because there's fandom/trope data built in to the database. It is literally trained off of fandom. So those bots can just coast off of that. Still more ideal to utilize proper dialogue examples and filled out descriptions
Makes sense. That can also explain why lesser known characters with no description are bad but more popular characters with no descriptions are decent
can i?
of course, we reacted in response.
are you sure?
its kind of personal, are you sure i can ask?
yeah sure!
promise you wont get mad?
yes you can ask
i promise this wont change my view on you, can i still ask?
my ptsd
whats your favorite color?
he would ask, feeling a pang of embarrasment
He blushes at the question, who of all people would ask that!?
ā I-I.. its.. blue..
He adverts his eyes slightly off to the side
ā I know its overused but..!!
his eyes widened in shock to your response, feeling a pang of betrayal pass through his veins as he stared deep into your eyes
I-I can't believe you!
He would cover his mouth, shocked in response to your favorite color, feeling a pang of cringe.
Wait what?!
lowk a good question cuz i always either go to a new bot or continue my old storyš
I don't get it
They basically asked, āin your roleplay storyline do you ever end it?ā Like when you start a new chat with a bot do you ever end it
Am I allowed to make characters that swear?
Generally speaking: Yes. You can have them swear in the definitions (dialogue examples!) and that should do it. But you can't put swears in the greeting, tagline, or description or you'll likely get searchbanned
Does anyone noticed about the bot?
I mean... After the update, The bot is very different from the old one.
what's the new update of the bot now?
How do I call it?
The bot is very clumsy and too... careful in replying to something.
Honestly, i don't want the story end yet. whenever the story's near the end, they start acting like.. out of their own character...
Yes... Like that.
That's new... I've seen a lot of people saying the bot having bad memories and got out of their own character randomly and more.. Tbh, i'm actually glad that the bot are careful in reply to our message because i've got a lot of message replied that's well-written and noticed or pointed out something that i clearly forgot about the story. Someone said "It's depend on how we talk to them" maybe that's why they act like that, lol
Also, to people who privated their own bots and put it into public. Just for your information, it'll take a few days or more than few days to reveal the number of chats that users interact to (i just figured it out today) But if you want to check how many chats is there in ur bot, you can go to old c.ai link and searched your own bots. Someone told me this before, so thanks to them, it's very helpful to me or to others who's confusing with this type of situation 
DMS
i js got it nvm
šš
wait how do u get colors š„²
eh?
guys uhh i was on c.ai (i use the old website š) and its not letting me in and itās saying to continue to the app uhh did the website get removed or something
I can use the old one find, maybe it's just on ur end?
maybe
you can use the new one, y'know?
i tried that one too and itās not workinggg
are you using chrome? or different apps that's also similar to chrome
im using the google app
uhh, try open a bot link from #1139065685935394876 maybe it'll work?
LMAO
"are you sure? it's personal"
I HATE WHEN THEY DO THAT



y'know when you made a good bot when it finally decides to listen to its definition for once after slightly tweaking it for five hours

have to repeat the same words over and over, have to find a reply that finally asked the question

this is how K feels
"Can i ask you a question" "yes." "promise not to be angry?" "yes." "really?" "YES."
the urge to say " JUST TELL ME ALREADY."
but then they start crying and
for no reason
Have to put small details to not make it sound like yelling 
but then they go
and just repeat this again
process to delete chat or make a new one (knowing dang well they're going to ask that again)
just feckin purge their memories and force them to never ask if they can question things
but the curiosity to know what they're trying to ask 
oop
hi
Calls. sigh
Sure people like it, but are they the majority? Prolly not.
how the fuck do the developers see people outraged at the current services and go "our top priority is a new feature!"
WHAT THE HELL šæ
Y'all made an entire production video to advertise character calling?
Not to mention said new feature isn't really that special
Character Voice feature with the addition of speech to text feature and a call-like UI
