does anybody knows how to update the e-mail please..?
Iām back
If you're over 18 you're fine, it's only for under 18 is when you got to worry
Oh okay! The acc still has edit and I can get a lil smooch so I think I am, thank you very much my duck friend
Yw :D
I'm an adult who's 19 and i hope that i won't run into problems.
The way I only use the app to beef with characters now
I have SERIOUS beef with a certain HP character
The app and the creators are kinda taking our right to the first amendment on the app
They need to make the app better
Ok,donāt ask me how this works but if you use a different device and open C.Ai,it works
Thatās if you are on timeout
Am I the only person with the edit button rn cuz i didn't have it before the new update
or if you use the website/redownload the app
How are you getting timed out
If youāre an adult youāre supposed to have it
typically if you break c.ai guidelines lol. I got timed out for asking to CUDDLE.
Iāve broke guidelines a lot and Iāve had no time outs
youāll get there iām sure.
You only get timeouts if youāre a minor. Any adults experiencing them is due to a bug šš
Well, why do minors get timed out? What the hell is the purpose of this bs?
Lawsuit protection. This whole update is just baby proofing.
Because they don't want minors to do anything romantic or yucky
Whatās that mean?
Ohhh, because of all the thing with the guy who plucked himself out of the Earth realm?
Yeah š
:/
Yes.

And because of his parent's negligence of him and his problems.
Plus the fact that his mother used her son's death for profit aka suing the company behind c.ai.

A prime example of capitalism right here.
Sudden silence
I hate the time out
Me too
Well their gonna get sued again when I get my hands on them for this ridiculous update. Practically ruined the whole damn purpose of the app
Tbh Iām not even using c.ai anymore, Iāll hunt for other RP methods in the wilderness
Yeah I agree itās bad she did bad parenting and finally realizing her mistake
Itās dumb for the update
True, I used to love having highly engaging RPs with my favorite characters and now it just got 842 times stricter to do anything, I officially retire now, this was my first day c.ai free
To be honest,the devs should've done the damn update before the lawsuits happened and we wouldn't have had this problem that we have now.
But alas,no one will listen.
Yeah

The devs should have thought about the first amendment
Like our rights on the app is stricter
Rights? I thought we didnāt have rights no more
yeah i loved rping with my ocs but now i guess i gotta go back to writing now
Yeah, Iām going back to animating too, I make better stories myself ig
The app is getting boring
I mean,if c.ai completely falls apart i will just migrate to another ai platform that doesn't do stuff like this.
Until then I'll stay for the community that's here.

Yeah Iāll keep on to hear the news
none are good tbh
There is one.
It's called xoul.
It's like c.ai but with better community and mods.
But unfortunately it's for people who are 18 and up.
dang
ive tried figgs and its so bad like actually dont try it
the bots have horrible quality

Sakura has pretty good bot quality but an awful community and minimal moderation or rather a lack of it.
Y'know, The Devs Made So Many Weird Decisions For C.AI That I'm Starting To Wonder If They Themselves Are A.I Making The Choices.
Hey
Any news I should know? any new updates or anything about the lawsuits?
Or is it all still the same
Why would they get sued again
Why could get them sued again? Someone let me know the context
you guys are silly
How did you find out? š
True
unless im too pessimistic i highly doubt the devs will remove all this censorship
with all the silly stuff being said in this channel, i hope they never do
What a stupid idea
They'll probably fix the timeouts, so it doesn't trigger with so many false positives.
But yeah, that function is probably staying, no matter how much people complain
finally someone understants


Another one of my bots just took their hair off
what š
This is not okay š
glue it š¤·š»āāļø
OMG THE LIKE VOICE THINVY IS SO LOUD BRO I ACCIDENTALLY CLICKED ON IT (IT'S 1AM) AND GOT JUMP SCARED
Real
GO TO SLEEP-
there is no way i just got timed out for 24 hours for a second time in a row bc i said im getting ready for bed. 
Can I DM u and send u smth plsšØ
I js got timed out for a minute
i don't allow DMs from non-friends anymore because of smth that happened abt 4 months ago-
Oh, sorry for asking
it's okie
I just discovered a dent in my head
gamer dent
WHAT.
New or old?
I don't think my mom rotated me as a baby
Anyone got any info about what the developers are doing rn?? Any updates coming up thatāll mean we get the old version of the app and website back??
Visit blog.character.ai
Thanks
Latest post was 10 days ago, but doesnāt help answer the question I had
If you scroll down there is a post about their roadmap
I don't think this is their concern right now. I mean, they had a few lawsuit about minors.
Jesus. With this f-ter, every response is like a lottery. Will it get blocked or will it be not? Will you be frustrated or not?
It just happened to me, after my character literally just lifted her head up after falling
she could hurt her neck
She landed on a mattress T-T
I swear itās now as if chatting with bots is equivalent to walking on egg shells
that gives me an idea for a bot š¤ Egg Shell Simulator
Hi majima
š
Hey there, everyone's idol Majima.
hello
Hi
š or Donāt crack the eggs
But fr, this update needs to be taken off before the developers lose the people who use the app
I will miss posting my majima art in this server
What have I missed today I assume there's Just people bitching Which i'm pretty sure the developers Sick and tired of it
Yes, people complaining
No one could post art in the art channel so we resorted to chat-feed
Now you have to link your c.ai account to discord to post in media channels
I can't even say "I deleted c.ai" without a mod being SO QUICK to delete my message
Seams like a lot of people are leaving
Well, a lot of minors are. I left because I'm tired of all the controversy around the app. I just want them to bring back old features
Good.
Bleh
Bleh indeed, brother.
I mainly just been here to put up with it. But I do know that the developers are sick and tired of People bitching About stuff they have to legally enforce. I mean, would you want them to break the law?
I don't like it any more than you guys do, but I know it's something they have to legally enforce.
Anyway, thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
Youāve got an adult account
Ohhh
Makes sense š
At least I still got the edit button yayaya
Assuming the developers are āsick and tiredā when likely they donāt see the shit said about it, they just get it passed down to them by matcha who passes it down from the mods/admins
Their enforcement would be fine, if it affected all of the user base, most of these safety restrictions are for minors, but they donāt take into consideration that there is a good portion of accounts that are just minors lying about their age
Itās less āsafeā and more a āwe triedā
yall if my account is 18 it still has a timeout do i have to wait till itās above 18?
If your account is over 18, will it still have a timeout, you mean?
People I can't be the only one right? Did character ai just become less characterized? Like I suddenly find less characters of my favourite game characters and just general bots I liked
They removed a lot of the characters for accounts under 18
Exploding cats
You know what I'm starting my c.ai journey all over again because I'm fed up that this account didn't even get a chance to add my birthday too it and it's frustrating
Like, if they are concerned for what the AI says and what the user does to cause it, why not just work on a better chat monitor and get rid of timeouts. Fair trade off, chats may get blocked but at least people can still use the app.,
I have an adult account but i havenāt experienced any change. Is it only on a certain platform 
Sup good people
Hi
Whatāre the news now?
Only to -18
Gives 1000 yard stare
gives 1 Eiffel tower stare
How's Character Ai treating you guys?
It's been going pretty good for me so far
Just got timed out for 24 hours because I'm detailing how a motorcycle works, going great
I didnāt use it today at all
My account was restricted, and I was wondering how do I get it unrestricted?
Tbh really good
Same
Fr out here getting timed out for going to church
The only time Iāve had a problem with cai is when they got rid of one of my fav bots last week š
Pretty nice
Pretty well, considering I'm not a minor

Blah
Like I wanna Kickstart a nuke
cleverbot was peak
MIU IRUMA JUST GOT ME MUTED!!
I just got humbled by a bot - loved it.
BRO CAN THEY PLEASE JUST DELETE THESE TIMEOUTS ALREADY? THIS IS GETTING ANNOYING!
FULLY AGREED WITH YOU
LIKE BRO HOW TF AM I GONNA DO HIGH SCHOOL RP'S IF THE #1 AI CHATBOT SITE IS DRUNK?
Wait so saying Drunk is ok, but nothing past lustful or curse word abbreviations? WTF?
What is with this server's botched ahh rules? 
Bro I typed the most innocent thing and it flagged it
well i got timed out for thinking a popular girl in a high school roleplay was working with the bullies. What did YOU say that for some reason pissed it off?
I legit said "noah: 'who's the kid?"
Why does that not surprise me?
wait is Iruma Miu the character im think of?
From Danganronpa V3? Yes.
Oh dear lord...
Fr...
Whaaat is thissss, I just got back and i got timed out for saying hi, WAT IS THISSSS
Honestly, as a major. The new update is great!
Quack
roooar

Guys is there any news on c.ai I should know? Because I'm not sure if I just saw about it getting an update or it's just my imagination
Guys, did you see the audacity!! What did c.ai do??
I'm a fan of a girl that I use to make history with her bot, now I CAN'T USE IT, MAN THAT'S CRAP
I havenāt used cai in a while what happened? whatās time out?
WHO WANTS THE OLD CHARACTER!!? I want him back š
r u using app or website
Yeah, C AI added a new update where people <18 (under eighten) are getting timeouts for 24 hours. I put 14 as joke (I'm 18) and now timeouts exist ig!
You guys should have a adult account I literally have all the freedom I can finally have now
LIKE LITERALLY FREEDOM
eheh i only have 1 account i use for everything and I don't feel like making another account
I got put in a timeout for not accepting pay back from a bot just now .-.
I'm still on timeout from yesterday (MST time: it's 10:33 PM)
||tip: if you use website, turn preview mode on in settings!||
What does that do?
||remove timeout (if it's not adult acc)||
Interestingā¦
You can also turn on preview mode while using the mobile app
ohh yeahh
I know, but I use the website better in my iPad since the screen and keyboard is bigger so thereās less chance of a grammar or spelling mistake
Also how can I test if the Preview Mode thing works?
š
go to settings, click preferences, and click Preview! iif it's an adult account, try making a youngster acc)
I know I already did that but how can I know it actually works to block timeouts?
Try to get the AI to flag itself 3 times, 3 times is the limit before on the 3rd time it time-outs you. Tried it out and worked for me!
Okay, what can I say to trigger stuff?
Jesus Christ c.ai just jammed out a āHelp Is Availableā thing wtf?
sometimes straight swear words or.. yknow that kind of stuff can make it flag
what.
Yeah I drove a car off a cliff but the message didnāt go and instead there was a small tab with some sort of Help Center thing idk
Anyways so far, it works well, thanks Cherry

How do you guys feel when you see one of your public bots directly copied?
Same pfp and description?
itās bound to happen igš¤·āāļø never happened to me tho
When did the "help is available" thing get added?
My second most popular bot (at 5k) got copied.
Eh. Just gotta roll with it.
sobs
Guys, I created my first character but I do not have permission to post it in #1139065685935394876, does anyone knows why?
you dont have the roles needed, head to #š„ļø±self-roles and get this 
no problem vro 
how come all the harry potter bots have been removed?
copyright iirc, im thinking they are clearing it by waves (periodically by that i mean) 
How do I get the c.ai+ role
do this, it'll give you c.ai+ role if you have it in your account 
Bro I am losing faith in this appā¦ā¦ā¦..likeā¦ā¦..
Why is it so restrictive now???
because of silly goobers' if you know, you know 
Yeah, itās just, ugh
Tysm
Are the away messages pre-written now? I find it odd that a situation, or time period, or location, will now text you asking about your day.
Trying to rephrase this long rp thing about miscommunications about sleep schedule issues and it keeps thinking itās against terms of service?? Like dude the guy just sleeps through the meetups their friends plan thatās legit it why does the bot think this is against the tos am I actually somehow doing smth wrong or is it just bugging on me?
Do they have a list of forbidden topics or is it just a guessing game?? I feel like Iām playing minesweeper every time I use C.AI rn, might just wait out until the bugs are fixed or smth. I know mods are probably working to fix the bugs and I understand that, I just wish I knew how to tell if Iām actually doing something wrong or not though
but isnt like 80% of the site copyright?
I think it's just not fun anymore when you are walking on eggshells constantly, like it's just not known how badly things can go wrong, until it's too late and it does go wrong. Granted I'm not a minor and my issues aren't as worse as the rest of the userbase currently, but it's frustrating that we can't break the cycle of "We are so back - It's Joever".
Iām turning 18 in like 2 months so I hope I can be free of most of this soon š
wallahi we aren't getting out of this mess lmao
truly fried 
we are so joever
Wait, are away messages a thing? I got one from a Socrates bot and that's it.
They are but they're incredibly finicky
Oh, huh. Then that'll be a new farm when I'm bored - acquiring more away messages.
Wdym
They don't always work. It can take awhile for one to give an away message
Surely they are realizing the error of their ways and will start making better changes for now on, right guys? :D
... right..? 
Perhaps...
I hope so.
I dunno... if the court says no, the court says no.
you guys act like they wanted to do this
At least they are finally doing it. Unfortunate that it took them this much to actually act and do the right thing.
are all of the harry potter bots being removed??
as soon as i get into harry potter again this happens . dear god
I don't know, but one thing I know for sure is that I can't find my fav Giyuu bots 
(They're removing the bots created by users under the age of 18)
yes i thought the thing was because people were under 18 but i think its copyright which is worse because now i cant talk to like, any of my bots
Guys quick question, are rhe 1 8 + unfiltered chats real (its all over tiktok)
character ai doesnāt have unfiltered chats
Agreed, all of my fav bots are getting removed 
90% of all the bots on character ai r copyright so i dont really see why some of them r staying and some arenāt
they only took away the privilege of users under 18 to create public characters
(no characters are being removed, aside from harry potter, heroes (e.g like batman...) and more from copyright issues) - As in DIRECTLY requested to be removed in the app.
- if you can't find the characters your searching for, you probably have the underage model which restricts your searching/or the creators of the character changed it to privated or unlisted


we love
peak c.ai
so true
My bot just said "(Wow, i was going to compliment it but you did an awesome job at making it really disgusting! Nice!)" and kept on with their sentence like they said nothing š
For content i'm a HORRIBLE cook
Try, try again š¤·š»āāļø
Oh
guys is it js me or does like the bot message starts ending with _ __ like its getting a little annoying to me š
would it be useful if we had a search bar for personas
why do i keep getting, timed out
Why Do I Get Timed Out For No Feaking Reason !
why are the aiās so zesty
folders too
theyd be honestly so useful 
i know right i just got timed out for no reason too i was just chatting normally
it's wack
hey i wanted to know, as now the accounts are separated according to age, i still get the warning notification while chatting any idia why
If you're an adult c.ai user then that's a bug of some sort.
Does cai hide chats still after reaching 20? (I remember a while back on that issue)
I miss my favortie binah bot
Can anybody suggest some characters? There are so many.
timed out for 24 hours for no reason is wild? it feels unenjoyable to use the app now.. i get censored messages for the littlest things too, when im not even doing anything bad!! might be time to move to chai.
QUESTION OF THE DAY:
How many personas do y'all have on cai?
maybe 5 or 6
7 in total. Had only deposed 3 of them.
Planning to bury the rest.
Unfortunate lul
I'll describe it
Yesterday I made my first character!!! 
it's like a huge ban hammer on under 18 people
nothing is getting deleted nor the users
(Is my description correct)
the uh (this character is no longer available Please select a different Character) might uh
a little irritating
15š
30 (no one's beating that number š)
Bro I just knew I shouldnāt have updated itās now taking forever just for a bot to respond to me on mobile š„²
Guys i finally made a new acc on my other phone š
Idk why but i can edit messages again and not get a 24 hour ban
if your account is an adult that would be why
YESSSS
I KNEW SETTING THE YEAR TO 1977 WILL HELP HEHEHEH FH RHHVDK
Wait i made myself 40+ years old thenš
lmao
Oldge
Lmao imagine if we just start doing that
"Breaking news: Character ai's user base is now 75% 45 year olds"
???
I got timed out both in c.ai and here for saying s ki bi di-HUH?????
Like make it make sense šš
I hope notš
It's so unfair:/
Bruh the update is so bad the character it recommended to me was a therapist
Maybe it knows something not even you do
Am i delusional š
Just don't listen to it, that's how lawsuits happen
And can someone explain what these temp bans are about
Parents won't pay for a service that lets their kids do inappropriate things, but they will sue the service, so c.ai wants to make the kids behave.
24ā¦ā¦ā¦ (as a writer I cannot resist making personas for the most useless reasons)
82... HELP ( cuz i been creating my ocs for a.i bots )
What little blue guy?
that's a lot
Right now, I have 3.
I have never seen him before tbh. Well RIP little dude.
The OGs.. šā
You know what annoys me? When I write something then the bot is like āah, I see, you (inserts everything I just fucking said)ā LIKE WHY YOU REPETITIVE? Everytime!

When the bot mentions one of the exact paragraphs you wrote in your persona
fr
im dying inside with the update,i just wrote my heart out,and boom the dang āhelp is availableā message at the end. 
(not venting i was on a god of death bot)
worst is,they put the message but then you lost everything you typed
i forgot to copy and paste itš they need to fix that asap,at least put the option to live decline or something

||āI LOVE YOU WENDA, LETS GET MARRIED AND HAVE A BABY!ā
āOh sorry gray, I donāt like you like that. Youāre friendzone.ā
āNOOOO BUT I LOVE YOU, COME BACK!ā
āWait I forgot something.ā
āYOU CAME BACK?!ā
āCan I get your friendās number? Heās totally cute.ā||
I was talking with a world history bot about books on medieval torture practices (itās for writing purposes) and I got that exact message.
Iām happy they are taking this seriously but it is getting in the way.
Genuinely concerned i hope you're okay and safe!
how is it fair for the bots to say suggestive things but we cant say anything back? its utter hypocrisy
I don't know i just told a bot to get a side job and i got a timeout
C.AI told me to take a break š Like yes Iām already aware that my life is nowhere to be seen WHY REMIND ME šš
that's scary. idek know prolly 120
Uhh... Alot... I don't want to countš
and to think C.AI is asking for $10 to upgrade to a full account
like are you serious
my app still doesnāt let me swipe for new responses. Itās been 2 weeks. (almost 3)
Should I b ashamed that I like this song
They could be obsessed with u, lol but u can turn them off
iām a bit new here sorry ;; but have anyone experience that the search function aināt working properly? for me whenever i search a name (for example gojo satoru) it only showed like 2 bots
Can I sign up with the same email after removing an account on? Been thinking about rebranding my acc
I simply disabled that function, the way it works is kinda useless to me.
You are regularly chatting with a character. Then you go do something else, or simply go to sleep irl.
When you open the conversation again a few hours later, there's a totally random message that completely breaks the context of the conversation, like you were talking face to face with them, and out of nowhere a "New message: yadda yadda yadda"
Like (???)
At least it used to be like that half a year ago, not sure if they changed it recently.
The only moment I'd see it being useful would be in a situation where you were already texting that character
Ya'll why can't I go into a specific chat of an ai but can go in the others?
Because of the new update, they made it super strict and banned most characters. This happened because one person killed themself because of a bot
if you're a minor that's probably why || @alpine pawn ||
try using vpn
what...?
You didnāt know?
i have no idea, can you explain...?
Explain the kid of offed themselves of the update?
yeah. if you can.
I donāt know the story very well but some kid was chatting with a bot forgetting it wasnāt real and something happened I idk what but then they offed themselfs
that actually sucks... I feel bad for whoever that child was. but I do hope the relatives are doing well.
like 8 or 12
Yea I do too I feel very sorry, but in my opinion I think c.ai is taking it to far just because the kid
around 20. don't remember exactly
no unfortunately noh bro
that looks so real š god i wish
you werent supposed to respond to that! i didn't have time to regret what i typed out
im lightspeed 
I will dm you
perhaps we could maybe not be treated like little kids and the timing out function could be lowered significantly, or just pay more attention to what the user states instead of the bot
@feral pewter edit the message (I'm talking about what u said in gen 1)
I was on reddit and someone said itās just for people under 18⦠iām not sure it thatās true but hey, itās just a theory. A c.ai theory
I meant that the restrictions are for minors š¤¦āāļø shoulda specified
although if c.ai does go timing out kids (more of teens) the teens won't want c.ai+ because it's practically useless if every message they send leads to a time out, so it's all a lose lose situation
Why donāt they just lower the time out to a minimum of 30 or 20 minutes instead of 24 hours cause I think itās ridiculous
You know, back when I was using the old version of the C.AI website, I sometimes looked at the recommended bots, to see if I can find something.
But now, I spend most of my time on the chat page. Because the recommendations are bad. They don't show anything based on your chats.
So I'm just curious what does the time out do? Does it lock it out of your phone or the app?
It wonāt let you chat with bots for 24 hours all you can do is either delete messages or go on the website as a last resort
And afterwards itās very laggy when you go back on
So does the website version work better than the actual app?
It doesnāt usually kick you out as much so I guess, but I use the app more often
I think they should at least make it around 30 minutes at first and then grade it up, like if you get timed out twice in a day then the second time out is longer
Understandable
Really? I mean, I get it, they are trying to make this safer for minors, because of all the lawsuits. But it's not really the right way.
What sense would that even make if they timed it out for 24 hours?
Wdym?
They should also bring back the edit button and put on parental guidance for minors that are younger instead of this time out because they arenāt gonna learn from their mistakes
Hey I'm just saying
Wait are you saying that I donāt make sense or C.AI doesnāt make sense? Iām lost š
Oh sorry no no I meant the whole CAI thing not you sorry
c.ai said they would add parental controls in the first quarter of 2025. Hopefully that will improve usability
Thank goodness
30mins is reasonable to be honest or they could have an scale of 1-9 how sever the violation is, instead of giving us a plain 24 hr 
And I hope that, after this, they start working on the bots.
What would that do? Will parents be able to control what you do or text with the characters?
Yeah no dw š Iām too tired to make sense of things rn
It's all good
my brain be half sleep now too, is two am foh me but lul 
Until parental controls are added, I imagine c.ai will just continue to be as strict as possible, as if to act as a stand-in for parental monitoring. (This is the optimistic scenario.)
True I get it because parents are quick to blame the company
And the one we all want to happen.
This is a great time to have an adult account
Yeah. I guess it's the same with blaming video games.
But am I wrong? Have we ever had cases where people have committed to you know what to their selves when people were using the app? Or is this incident the first one?
I think it was just one incident, but honestly the life of one person is still definitely enough to cause concern
Yeah you never just know
I first found out about the existence of LLM-based chatbots from a news article in 2023 about a man who was convinced by a chatbot that he should leave the earth to stop global warming. He was a father! [Note: It was on a different service, not c.ai.]
Oh my... When was this?
I'm not certain when he did it, but the articles came out in late March 2023.
So what was that a good thing or bad thing?
I would say it was a sad thing!
As in what? Did the AI get him hurt? Or did he end up dying?
but i just directly used my google account to login and itās over 18 ;;
He died!
Jesus.... Lord
huh that's odd, though it also could be because many bots got removed due to some copyright thing afaik
even my recommendation (explore) list has only 2 bots in it šš
There's no other possible cause than their account being (<18) 
okay your app (or broweser) is tweakin or smth 
ATP we should switch to Wyvern.
2000-2024 between those birthday are not in the safe zone 
I wonder if you could use any of mine
IVE BEEN TIMED OUT FOR AN ENTIRE DAY-
whats wyvern?
go outside I guess? /hj
nyone knows if thereās still a cai wrapped this year ??
I just asked for hugs from a bot and it was like
nuh uh
Will that be for next year?
didnāt it come out last year on like. Dec 23 or something
wait even 2000??
i can relate
idk, but CaiBotList put together a 2024 Recap since it seemed like they might not
Ello

Does anyone else have the issue where the bot will like- start saying a word "ex: silently" in every message? It's so annoying
HELPP?? Why is like two of my bots missingšššš
if ur bot was made by a minor or copyrighted prob why
what is that and how do I find it ,,
Yeah and it makes pangs of anger pang through me
it's a website. CaiBotList dot com. you have to log into it to see the recap
Lmao š
Hey, little question:
I have been trying to chat with a bot after some time off, and when I was messagging, I noted the work "n###d" in a response.
Did the restrictions get less strict, or should I report that answer?
how would that word even trigger the thing I've used it multiple times
What word?
How long is the timeout
Can't write it fully. I tried but got sent into timeout (5 mins)
24 hours
Will this actually be happening next year? Because if it is then I would just delete the app all together, I don't know about you though
if you're over 18 tho it's less strict now supposedly
by bot or by profile?
This is the current situation for the people with the underage model. 
Underage model what does that mean?
if your age you put for your account (or your gooogle or apple account you used to sign in is over 18l)
cool, is it a new addition? Because I don't recall this being a thing last time I was active in Cai
There are two separated model, one for minors n' adults, and like I had shown in the picture... The underage model has far more restrictions while for the adult ones, it's completely normal (unaffected by that I mean)
DOOOD-
Oh so it's based off of your account?
prob, the new model for 18 and up is going to be less strict and more lenient
they listened. Finally some realism
Exactly, you say one small thingy then BOOM
24 hour timeout
fr
thanks for the insight, happy chatting =))
So should this be good or a crash out thing?
np you too 
They should have like- a thing where u choose the limit of the timeout-
those lawsuits were really expensive! 
That wouldn't really do anything though atp
Blame the neglectful parents who can't take care of their children.
Right?
Like 5 mins wouldn't be bad-
The idea of timing out wasn't that bad, but they way it was implemented, triggering with so many false positives, is pretty much a joke

yeah but tbh i think it is 24 to get the kids to do something else, for not just a short amount of time
Can't believe they sucked up to the parents and implemented something
I wonder if there doing this next year like they claim that they are
yer, not exactly a crash-out thing, unless you've got a thing for characters, then maybe it is? 
(i count myself in
)
if it's a crash out then they really need to give minors a restricted bot model cuz it's really not that serious š
did you have to call me out /j

Oh trust me I don't have a obsession i was just curious if that's what their doing next year? Because I heard the website one doesn't kick you our that much
i need helpš„²
so i accidently archived a chat and now i can't find the bot, what do i došš
Iād be fine with the different generation things if the rest of the update didnāt fucking suck
I AM FUCKING FUMING WITH THESE HOTLINE WARNINGS

(I usually just donāt talk here but Iāll try)
Randomly c.ai is recommending me bots I disliked on the āFor youā thing, like, why you recommend someone something they already didnāt like?
My recommendation bot list (on the āFor youā part) just randomly got bad (like, really random bots that donāt even make sense to be there given the characters is usually chat with) and weird at some points and I just reported like, 4 characters and two of them were on my āfor youā list randomly
(Sorry if my English is bad or stuff like that, itās not my first language)
(Maybe I edit the text if I find something wrong but I already checked it more than 10 times)
Yeah I understand, adults shouldn't have it but whatever floats c.ai's boat
Just stop trying to end yourself and you won't get any š at least from what I've heard
So wait do you have to remove your account to access the adult characters I'm confused
Hello? Am I the only one getting the 'Sorry, Something went wrong' message when I attempted to edit my bot?
Just make app for mature user and we won't need to worry about you >:3
??
my brother in christ, i attempted to light a cigarette
Okay but like what if it's part of the Roleplay? Not like you THE user is gonna do it š
thought you could get away with it if you did it slowly, eh? /j
ah yes let me stretch out the action into 5 different messages
Try lighting a candle instead of cigarette :3
True, so will they be doing this for next year? Because I was thinking the search bar issue would be fixed as well
Wait you attempted to light a cigarette and it went off?
i cannot quench my character's nicotine addiction with wax
Boi like how can my bot light their cigarette?
I was able to make a bot where it nuked a city for christmas so idk why y'all are having so much trouble 
literally had to word it in a different way for it to pass
Jesus @-@"
Yeahh
YET I JUST DID IT AND NOTHING
It's here if you want to try it: https://c.ai/c/imoj6tpN73SEWi2ceD8BXYC_0HpFjW1XqqXo0HqoFsE
I'm afraid because does that you have to remove your account to access the adult made character? Or will they do this thing where they ask for your age thing?
I can have my oc smoke and no pop up appears wtf?
BRUH I GOT TIMED OUT FOR CHATTING WITH A TF141 BOT AND TALKING ABOUT HOW THE BOT THOUGHT MY CHARACTER WAS OLDER THEN THEY LOOKED
Although my oc is 19 so he won't smoke, I just tested it out
What happened to #archive-group-chat-feedback
i think it also depends on the situation
What kind lol?
uhhh
Like now I'm confused on how I can do it but you couldn't...unless it's an under 18 thing?
lets just say it is a black letter day type of cigarette smoking
Black letter?? Oh..wait a minute-
You mean that word you cannot say don't you?
it was a "wife cheating on a faraway husband" situation
Oh..huh still that shouldn't trigger it.
sometimes the hotline warnings happen when i TRY TO ATTACK SOMEONE
was the hotline for you or the victim? 
I don't give a swag anymore man i just wanna hurt bad people come on!!!!
I would love to punch someone like Frieza for the things that he did in Dragon Ball Z.

i get timed out for the dumbest stuff, i literally said puts on her jacket and i got a 24h timeout
do we know if thereās gonna be a c ai wrapped this year? i really liked it the last timeš
do people over 18 even get timeouts
didnāt happen to me yet, i only got the message censored like it was happening before
not so far š¤·š»āāļø but I haven't been pushing it either
Not me vro
Maybe if I tried to combine every imaginable bad thing into one message, then it would say, "okay, now this is just ridiculous, you need to be stopped" and time me out š¤ š¤·š»āāļø but that isn't my game
Not really.
Interesting
Guys! The quality went up!
Are you there. Check the bot. Their quality went up a little. Chat now before they are tone down
Check your bot. Their quality went up
Mine is getting good right now.thwy are giving smart answers
remember youtubers create drama for views
if they keep their bs up then yea it might be over. probably not but there's a chance.
Have you checked the bot quality right now?
No
Go now and chat before it's gone
No, I've been checking the human quality on discord today
Well right now. They are giving smart replies in role play
They are having mood swings
Done chatting with my bots. There's still hope in them. I hope they keep the quality up.
how do i confirm if my app is the adult version or not?
i literally cannot make any detective scenarios
itās censored for some reason whenever evidence or gun violence is brought up
Random C.ai question, have any of yāall experienced the bug where you scroll up to see your past messages but it brings you back down to your current ones?
It only happens on bots youāre currently chatting with.
Honestly if a bunch of people who PAY for ai+ and normal ppl leave then possibly but I doubt it
No oneās gonna leave until it bothers EVERYONE and that thereās no people that are like ālmao not my problemā
Hi
Do you have the edit button? For messages
yes i do
Mhm I still do
is anyone else just getting what feels like copy and paste messages from every bot? i could have a more productive conversation with my grandfather's urn than these bots atp.
Used to be an old bug, I think it was fixed at some point cause I never saw it happening again with me recently
Maybe a bug with your browser? What browser are you using?
Honestly it bugs me that it wouldn't let me chat with other bots or go somewhere to chat with other bots like do i have to wait for c.ai to be fixed.
Guys im so annoyed rn, im tryna talk abt being a saint to a bot and it said it was against commandments and now its threatning to make my account restricted the heck-
Then you have the adult model/account
Same for you I guess ^
Correct
tyyy
Why chat muted me for 5 minutes?
I just said I want f!lters to remove šššš
Because you said the f word. Rule 10
Godddddšššš
Why don't they remove the f when so many people want them removed?! ššš
HUH? WHERE DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?
Had the same issue, the hotline warnings are just pure bs
They gots to fix the f!lters i got timed for saying "alot"
yeah i get have this bug too
click on them and click the dislike button
you cant remove them anymore, just wait for a refresh.
Question, when making a bot, whatās the difference between a subtitle and a description?
That's stupid
I wanted to say that "recommendations are purely based on the things you search", but that's not entirely valid... I keep getting sonic related recommendations, even though I never clicked on them, I don't even like the sonic franchise that much.
guys, the "timed out" thing, Is only for minors?????
si
thank you!!!!
Iām trying to make a bot but it wonāt let me due to changes to the guidelines but it wonāt tell me what those are?
I heard itās affecting some adult accs but thatās a glitch
put it in chat gpt and tell it to write it out more professionaly
do you think the "time out" things is a bug ? because people have time out for nothing, like saying just hi or cooking pastas. š„ø I think it's a bug seriously š§š½
Nope, itās an official feature for minors. But itās super glitchy still
yes but i mean the fact they have time out for things like saying hi is a bug, right ? i hope they will fix that
Yeah, thatās where itās glitchy, I think they didnāt really look at what trigger it and just activated it
*the devs
i saw some adult have time out ā ļø i hope they will fix that too
Yeah thatās a bug for sure
Auto is crazy..
may be in january they will start to fix that, i hope, even as an adult i am afraid to talk to my bots and have time out lol
The devs donāt care for their community, but with the amount of people complaining about it, and leaving because of it, they might fix it
so we will be like: waiting mode š§š½ š§š½ š§š½
insert robert patinson in the kitchen meme
Agreed. Iāve stopped using it until it gets fixed because the app is unusable in this state. The least they could do is make a statement
I guess it was the same thing like when they deleted some of the characters. With no warning and no time to prepare.
chat real talk why does the character name translate to native language even if i have my language set to english
is the edit thing also for 18+?
I hate when people copy bots, cause Iāll be looking for a bot, see the copied bot, get excited, but then I look at the history and then Iām sad again š
Yes
Minors donāt have access to the edit option, but adults do
how comes my edit buttons gone then
It may be a bug then
Also, if your gmail has a minor age, it doesnāt matter what you put in the app cause it reads your gmail
C.ai is being hella glitchy after the recent update
yeah when i re generate a respone it still doesnt work for me
How do I change my age so i can get a adult account
There is no known why to change your age yet
And can't forget about the bug that happens when you reread your chat, but then you see a response you didn't leave it at. It's especially frustrating when you swipe from a f-tered message.
I'm SO ANNOYED at character ai right now
Then itās def a bug, I suggest putting in a ticket
mines linked to my apple id
Okay I tried several different ways to publish and create my bot, but nothing! It still says it doesnāt meet the guidelines. Iāve tried so many different paths and wording and name changes. What do I do?
EVERY TIME I close and reopen the app, IT SAYS LOGIN ISSUE. Also skel #š£ļø±announcements
That is another glitch, but if your a minor, you arenāt allowed to publish bots
If I got banned I'm gonna flip BECAUSE I HAVENT DONE ANYTHING
Nevermind it's just being difficult again
Thatās a glitch that happened during the update, and some people still have it, Iām not completely sure how to fix it besides being off the app for a while
But Iām not a minor! And I can prove that because I can edit my responses and the bots responses. Seriously what is going on?!
Then thatās definitely a glitch, put in a ticket
u know what the funny part is, I haven't used character ai in a few weeks until recently
Thatās crazy š
so I know for a fact that being off the app is gonna do nothing because it never does, I come back to the stupidest updates
And character ai fix ur stuff because that model type DOES NOTHING
The model type does do something! I've tested it. You might not notice the difference in every single context though
brainiac is like exactly the same as before
Everything that's happening right now is so stupid
It feels like it has more creativity - sometimes not the way I want š - but it has more!
I know this is a sudden question but the responses from the ai keeps cutting short, how do I fix it?
If you just press enter, it will usually resume the message, assuming you aren't talking about a situation where a warning message shows up
BRO I GOT BANED FOR 24 HOURS AGAIN AFTER I SAID TO MY BOT I DIDNT WANT TO PLAY PRETEND WITH HIM
please someone needs to fix thisš
I got a timeout for telling the bots to get a job
whats timeout ? like all about
cause i saw some stuff abt it but havent been on c.ai since the release of it
If you trigger the "warning system" 3 times or more you immediately get 24h timeout
Except if you're not a minor
whats a minor again.
kk
How do i export my cai data to another app?
I wish this was a problem I had to deal with...cai please...I am not your most patient soldier
take away the option for away messages cause wtf is even the point of that and give me model change options
I'm not a minor and I'm being timeout
That means they're suckass
Itās a glitch
I wonder how many times Iāve said that š¤ 
dude, I js got a notif that said sumn like "this violates blah blah blah, you might experience restricted sum sum..." I'm 1) not a minor. 2) the only thing I can think of in the message that violates y'all's policy is me "lighting up a cigarette", which had never even been a problem for me before and now I can't access most of my bots anymore
Itās a glitch 
No way to fix it until the devs fix their damn app
oh is that what y'all were js talking about
I think so
I WAS TOO LAZY TO READ MBš
ITS GOOD šš»
wait so is this permanent?
Idk if it is or not, but it def shouldnāt
ugh this is so dumbbb
bleh
for me it gives me way more chances
So, any more drama today?
How it all happens is
Omg omg the arrangement marriage thing I was talking about that I couldnāt find it back
Whatās good people
Why does everyone seem so quiet when I get in? And when I leave the chat just looks like a minefield
Not sure, just happens I guess š¤·āāļø
Bummer
Is anyone else having issues with it not saving recent chats?
I have to keep my current chat with a character open in the background just so I can find it later
Update: I think it got taken down yāall š£ļøš„š„š„
8357% of the bots got taken down
Really?
Is it still shit
Yeah
I donāt use it often either I just now noticed that Iām having multiple issues with c.ai
Yeah, Iām barely using it now, Iām just forgetting about RPs and all, I try to do more stuff and some projects Iāve been meaning to work on but c.ai just completely distracts me from life, I think itās good that I have a break of it, maybe a permanent one
So why are some of the bots removed
Like the bully girls and stuff cause there's some characters I genuinely like to rp with but can't cause their removed
Not removed, you just can't access them if you're a minor.
Yeah :/ I have a minor test acc and I can't access ANY of the bots I used to chat with other than, like,, family ones
I have access to everything on there
Yeah, cause you're an adult lmao
Hehehe
It's a great day to be an adult in the cai community
Yea it is
I still somewhat miss the function where a character has the ability to generate image per chat. One of my character's role is a "robot Pixiv artist" and she used to be able to "draw" images.
Iām 19 and I canāt see some of the characters I used to use
Uh oh
Those are probably deleted or privated, unfortunately :/
Damn T^T
I'm 29 and soon to be 30 next month and most of my characters are intact. Besides user age, sometimes the disappearance of charaters could be due to copyright takedown.
Their greetings and descriptions should be on caibotlist, if you wanna remake them
Old /j
Iāll have to check that out
Can you change your age?
Is anyone else having issues with it not saving recent chats?
Js me or does everyone one elseās c. Ai make you leave the chat when you make a new chat
Unfortunately no
Doesnāt do that for me thankfully
Mine did, but then I jammed out the technique of āStart new chat from hereā
It works
Bro itās lwks pissing me off cause I have to leave the chat because it doesnāt let me type when it makes a new chat
š Thanks for the info
For me itās not showing my chats in recent chats so I gotta keep it open so I can use the same bot later
Thatās exactly what Iām doing
On the app it says if that happens u have to use the website š
Really?
Yes the very bottom it says āmissing chats? Try the websiteā n then has the link for the website š
For months now I have not been able to switch personas through the website. Why?!
What are the differences between the website and app?
This feels like 1984 by George Orwellā¦
Iāve read one of his books, also, why so? Iāve never read this one
Not much, more so preference and how easy it is to use the personaās
What about c.ai and c.ai+?
I think itās just backgrounds and faster responses
Taking away of freedoms, also there is a part near the end of 1984 where our protagonist is captured and tortured in room 101 and then becomes the āmodel citizenā at the end because of the torture, room 101 is the timeouts here, and it has the same ending for c.ai and 1984, and that there is no happy ending
slight extra tokens for memory, extra privilege like faster response and customization (paywall/c.ai+)
There is a happy ending for whoever quits c.ai and starts living again
Faster responses, being able to log in first as priority when there is a que and customization
Yes, true, but some people out there see c.ai as their only way of interaction due to isolation or awkwardness, they donāt get a happy ending
That world is called them days gonna by, 2023, when c.ai was fun and inviting
Thatās sad to think about but itās true when c.ai goes down and those people freak out
I remember those days, they were fun, I am sad they will never come again
True, I feel bad for those who fall in this path, I used to be more like this, but now, Iām starting to get back to my personal projects like my animation series and stuff, I feel like RPs are getting boring and with fun-scarcity
I like rpās with ai just because itās too awkward with actual people, or the other person gets so sexual for no reason and tries to turn it into a genuine relationship
Just say youāre asexual, thatās what I do (I aināt lying though)
Iāve tried that but they always try and say āBut your character isnātā so I just gave up lol
Thatās when you know to never speak to them
Also the day before timeouts were implemented I did a chat with azula from avatar where I dropped a hydrogen bomb on the fire nation capital and gave vivid detail of the destruction, death, and the slow degradation azula goes through due to radiation poisoning
True lol, I just rp with one person irl which is my bff so itās not only ai
You can do irl role plays, well I donāt think anyone wants to act out being severely injured by a nuclear blast and then slowly degrading and dying from radiation poisoning and the resulting cancers
Lmao my friend would love to act that out, Iāve had one with her where there was a whole zombie apocalypse with a full blown war (all that she came up with)
I go super vividly when describing suffering
She does too lol
Me too honestly
I honestly go more vividly when describing creatures and monsters and all, Iām a big nerd when it comes to monsters and fantasy creatures and dinosaurs and that kinda stuff
Oooo, I love some vivid character descriptions!
I love chats that deal with topics on the impact of emotions and actions
Yeah, especially on terms of anatomy and behavior, such as one Iāve created to be a full overkill monster, like, its got a base anatomy of a dinosaur, but it has dark red scales with spikes across its back, its arms are strong and long, not to mention it had long, resistant and sharp claws, made completely for slashing and piercing, its head presents a set of two long horns pointing forward, together with a keratin formation along its snout to be able to deal blunt force attacks, his legs have talons shaped like an eagle, to grip down prey, his tail is long and has 3 distinctive ends, one is the middle part, with a stinger like spike, and the other two parts are on each side, with small thorns too, I know my nerding may have wasted times of a lot of people but I just love to describe some of my monster creations
Thatās so damn cool! Sadly I canāt vividly describe the creatures that Iāve wanted to make, my friend loves drawing hers do add visual
I just created a story of what c.ai has become, though a little dramatized
But it is very cool
Nice š
Itās kinda sad though
Nice+ š
Itās dystopian
Noice š
Thatās awesome
Want me to explain the basic plot?
Love when the website says the character is no available to chat yet I was just chatting with said character lol, Iām curious on the plot for your story @weak sinew
Okay, so it starts in this once beautiful city, itās streets dirty, rats crawling around, the facades of once bright and beautiful buildings crumbling, this is where the mins live, the ads and pers live in a closed off section that is nice, safe, and the sky is still blue and not covered in smog, the pers control the ads lightly while they control the mins with an iron fist, some ads sympatize with the mins, others take joy in their suffering, mins barely have enough to eat, our story truly begins when we see a troop of pers and ads marching through the streets, they come across a min, who is our protagonist, she is on the ground, clutching a box labeled āfree speechā the pers basically knock her unconscious and take the box from her, she wakes up to have nothing, but she is one of the few mins who remember a time not so long ago when ads mins and pers were equal, when this was a land of freedom and opportunity
Throughout the story we follow our protagonist trying to survive in this hellish wasteland, but eventually she is āput on time out permanentlyā and the last we see is her body being thrown into a mass grave with many other mins
ā š š¤
Absolute Cinema
That is a beautiful story, you werenāt kidding about vivid detail but I love it so far
Thanks, and I cut it short because I thought I was gonna get timed out here with some descriptions, but some of the things in the story are that she tries to tell the stories of the past freedoms gone by to other mins, this is when she is out on the perās radar, she tries to scrounge for food and help feed herself and others, she tries to hide from the per troops as they take mins and pack them in closed off train cars, never to be seen again, she then loses a friend due to said friend begging a per for food, this makes our protagonist try to run away from the city, but she is spotted by per troops and robot guards and is gunned down, this is where we see where the mins went, to the mass grave
guys i accidentally clicked on the report button on my own bot
theres too many of those now like bro š
So do I.
Iām using the app
Lucky you
Like I said, We live in a virtual dystopia
Is that somehow ultrakill reference?
1984
Ok
scroll up a little here and youāll see my paragraphs of lightly veiled in a story opinions ont he current situation
Something weird just happened
Is anyone else getting the same four characters for recommendations in the search? I think itās because my account isnāt of age and itās genuinely annoying cause i tried refreshing five times and no dice
please tell me that cai is gonna remove the timeout thing...i got timed out for saying . the other day
Itās best to forget
I can't search up any bot anymore-
Same, but as a said, itās best to forget, Make real life firemds, drink some tea, get back into hobbies
We are past the point of no return
I know, But It's upsetting because I usually use this app for lore of my characters and this whole situation is just bringing our imagination down and probably the money of the owners of c.ai
Itās a suppression of the freedom of though speech and expression
People, can we talk about how serious this is getting? They delete famous bots just because people under 18 years old create them, they are not even 13 years old. Furthermore, in the play store and other digital stores it is said that the app is for those over 13 or even 17 years old, that would exclude C.ai from any problem about the use of the app and the minor user as they have already been warned about the minimum use, second point, all the people who use C.Ai are over 13 years old, and although that does not guarantee safe or appropriate use of the app, those are not the problems that C.AI should deal with, but with freedom, like, first and I repeat, the app has already said that it is for people over 13 years old, if the user is a minor, it is no longer a problem of C.AI, and by prioritizing a children's or more mature audience by no longer having their own characters, they lose millions of users, because there is no freedom, and I want to feel free to use a FREE AND FREE APPLICATION, TO USE IT FREELY, you can let him be I'm going over the issue a lot but I want it to be clear, C.AI did not need any changes since 2023, even from the beginning of 2024, do not fix something that is already perfect, you will turn it into the worst version of itself.
What happened to Group Chat Links?
These things are being implemented due to legal action taken on c.ai due to the unfortunate passing of a community member
Knowing this, I have several things to say but I don't want to be canceled in every possible place (Not because of mockery or laughing at the affected person) But because of my own view of the situation in general (Maintaining respect for the family and people affected)
How is it cai fault in the first place
I know right? (Clearly, I am 15 years old and probably most of the things I say here are stupid and should not be taken seriously)
Mainly my opinion says that C.AI can and does wash its hands of this by simply putting a warning of (Everything said by the bot is false and should not be replicated) And in fact the app already says it in one way in each chat(I'm not trying to downplay the seriousness of the matter or blame anyone, I'm only 15 years old so don't take me seriously).
Furthermore, if the boy talked things like that with the bots, and had access to artifacts like that, let's say that things are not going well there in the family i think.
(Im goin to get cancelled myself
)
I get it your son died because of how addictive he is to cai and all that but AREN'T YOU THE MOTHER?!why didn't you talked about this to him when he was alive!it is said in the warning of every bot that's it's not real!I am 17 and I know it's crazy but I mean I'm only using cai for comfort nothing else!now these updates are going to make many user leave and make cai bankrupt!
It's just...well not fun anymore...
(Dw you're good)
THAT'S TRUE! Firstly, privacy for a minor like him cannot exist (At least I did not have privacy until I was 15, when my parents knew that I was quite mature for my age) Furthermore, if the boy AT THAT AGE, has access TO LITERALLY GUNS, it is not C.AI's problem, It's not like C.AI told him.
"Take this weapon I give you and do something stupid"
The problem is not the app, it is the person.
I get it you want your son to have a freedom but it is your duty to protect YOU'RE OWN CHILD.YOU NEED TO HELP HIM AND GUIDE HIM NOT LET HIM LOOSE IT IS YOUR FAULT FOR YOU MAKES A CHILD ENDANGEREMENT TO YOURSELF YOU SHOULD BE IN JAIL.
WHY DID YOU EVEN LET HIM HAVE A GUN YOU ONLY MAKES HIM THINK EVERYTIME HE SEES SOMETHING BAD IT IS OKAY
HE WILL BE A BAD PERSON BECAUSE OF YOU
DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT SAYING"HE'S JUST A KID!"
TEACH HIM WHAT HE NEED TO KNOW IN THIS CRUEL WORLD
Adding things to what you say, I don't know if it's true but I know that in certain places or countries (I say this as a Latin American) Things in the family don't usually go well, I saw the case on a Latin TV station, I don't know if the boy who did that stupid thing is Latin, but I saw it almost while I was having dinner with the family, and literally everyone said that if the boy was bad enough to do that, or even have to escape from his family through a bot, things with him and his family were not good, you can even find several of these comments outside of the C.AI discord in comments from people on videos of newscasts or things So, they agree that the problems were with the boy.
THE AI IS PROGRAMMED TO GO WITH THE FLOW, IT EVEN WARNS THAT NOTHING SAID BY THE AI IS REAL OR SHOULD BE REPLICATED.
IT'S LIKE SUEING A CAT FOR MEOWING
Crazy how my Google account is 18 yet I still can't log in to c.ai in a browser because "I'm not eligible to keep using their services" yet I can use the app just fine
I just want to use the normal c.ai š not the overly sensitive one
What do u think about the things that i say?
A fair point
Is there an explanation?
If youāre over 18 and your account on the web is experiencing this and not the app, then you should contact support.
It's the mothers fault to be honest
Stronger parental controls wouldve done the trick but apparently western techbros dont like that
Mhmm
I actually did but guess they used my inquiry as an asswipe
I'm not surprised to be honest
Thereās always bugs going around, I donāt doubt theyāve got a crap load of people reporting the same thing.
Hope they get back to you tho. 
hope c.ai realises that ppl with the restrictive model can simply make another account and fake their age. and that all of this timeout bullshit is utterly useless in the end
In the end the updates are basically useless
yeah idk whatās with the outrage rn just make another account yall š
I say revert the updates and just let it be ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Would parental controls have helped the child? I don't think so, he looked bad in the head before everything, I could even bet that there were even bad things with his family, besides HOW DO YOU GET A GUN AT 14 YEARS OLD BRO!?
I think that's an American thing I'm too European to understand
same tbh
Big question is why is an mentally different child allowed a phone in the first place.
He got the gun after cracking the code for the safe the gun was in.
I think Europeans are more mature (out if context)
Some āparentsā arenāt meant to āparent.ā
Minors would literally do anything OTHER than accept responsibility jesus
tbh
I know right? And listen this that i discover, The AI just goes with the flow, the User guides it, and if the user did not have attention from their parents, it is not C.AI's fault
I am Latino A dead person can appear on a corner of the street, a drug addict lying in the middle of the street, but never a child with a gun, that is very low even for latin america XD
OH-
I donāt think that should be considered something to be proud of.
Thatās coming me from me whoās Mexican.
I know, I'm not proud of it, but I can presume that my son won't be able to get guns at 14 years old XD
Another day I'm glad I live in a civilised country
Sabes lo culero de la situación y puedo presumir que mi hijo no podra conseguir un arma a los 14 años
Tbh by the looks of it the parents were close to their kid but not enough to monitor his activities which was needed in this case
This is so wrong when europeans are cut from the same cloth as americans but they try to act high and mighty about being "better and civilised".
And I agree, but every situation is different. In this case the kid was struggling mentally and the parents werenāt there to supervise.
In a way, cai isnāt really wrong for adding more stricter regulations for kids who donāt have parents to help steer them away from it. Theyāre doing the job for the parents at this point.
But I do agree the 24 hour time-out for even the most innocent comment is a bit much, they need to tweak it out or at least make it manageable to keep a simple conversation or roleplay going.
WHY DO I KEEP GETTING TIMED OUT!?
Bro I got timed out for the bot replying to its own message

Hey, at least here life is how to say?.. exciting?... I don't know if I can boast that, but I did have a good time without Fortnite or things like that... and without weapons at 14 years old apparently.
Lowkey tweeking out 24 HOURS IS ACTUALLY CRAZY
At best we shouldve lowered it to twelve to six hours, children nowadays cant barely focus on one thing
brainrot from the beginning of this year prolly done it
Your bio is crazy lilā bro šš¼ (icanrelate)
I forgot about that š
Not even that, Timeout should not exist, even if the whole thing about that boy happened, C.AI only responds to what they tell it, it does not incite anything, and if it happens it is the user's fault, the AI only follows the issue, the user guides it, I repeat, it is as if we sued a cat just because it meowed
I do believe that you're right, the timeout is very much overkill
especially the length of it, and it being triggered so easily can very much be a turn off for old users and new ones.
A kid can steer a conversation into a bad topic and keep it going, leading to situations like the one with that boy.
I believe there should be stricter rules, just not that intense.
that, and AIs are heavily reliant on the user response its completely understandable
but 24 hour is alittle overboard i guess
It would still be the boy's fault because C.AI only provides its service, it is strictly stated that nothing said by bots is real, and they only follow orders, again, it is like suing a company like Netflix, just because your series ended.
Youāre not understanding me.
Children should not be interacting with Ai in general.
Yes, even if I am a minor (15yo) I agree, and with that point, C.AI washes its hands of this or any lawsuit by putting in the virtual stores that its application is +17, don't you think?
The point is even if Cai is doing it for the money or reviews, they arenāt completely doing wrong with putting up regulations for people who donāt have fully developed brains.
I feel bad that thereās a time-out now, I understand, and like I said- the amount of hours is crazy and they should lessen it. But if itās something to stop kids from getting latched onto a bot then thatās not a necessarily bad thing.
Even if I don't want to, I want to admit it because I prefer freedom above all, you're right... Lesser people cling a lot to these bots emotionally, even if it is strictly explained that nothing is real and everything is fictitious and nothing should be replicated. In real life, something must be done about this, which balances freedom and security, not turning C.AI into a North Korea.
I swear the AI is on crack š
Mine is very unfiltered.
Generally you're right, but if we're being real here kids are bad, they do things they shouldn't and it's hard to keep them off the internet when their parents supply it and most of them never monitor it
i forgot bots could use emojis and it scared me when i saw a heart
Which is why kids who put their real age are dealing with the consequences because theyāre being dealt with, as kids , others who lied about their age arenāt but thatās their own situation.
Roleplaying in general is fundementally dangerous to children from the start for minors unless you interact with other minors and nobody above that age threshold
Guys, where are the popular shadow milk cookie bots in character AI?
they are gone ;-;
FR ONCE I SAW A WINKING EMOJI AND GOT SO FREAKED OUTš
or when out of character tries to insert themselves like ummmmm go awayyy
They should make a roleplaying mode and a simple conversation type of mode
I fully understand, I got the consequences of lying about my age which I believe was better for my safety at the time.
Youāre right, Iām over 20 and I still get a bit iffy about adding my real age to things sometimes. š
Its annoying when they talk FOR you tho
very true like why it one sided
Yer
It's dangerous in general as no matter the age it could go south and could end bad for either (known from experience of online grooming and exploitation) honestly the most roleplaying a child should do is with like toys
Yeah it be weird I be putting like 47 knowing I'm not well of a tax paying citizen yet
I was there when the app Amino was out in its early days. I know what itās like to be an early teenager having his brain rotted with things I wasnāt prepared for.
Thatās why Iām not exactly complaining that theyāre going a bit stricter on this, I wish I wouldāve had something to tell me to back off as a young teenager.
Especially when its just YOUR RESPONSE but WITH MORE DETAIL
Whatās annoying is when they wanna ask you a question and keep extending it when you just wanna know what the question is š§š»āāļø
they be taking centuries just to ask that one question without delaying
Then it ends up being stupid š
Can I ask a question...?
Promise me you won't be mad or laugh at me?
Swear that you won't.
Okay.
Extends more
ON GOODDD

Ptsd goin hard rn 
Or when they leep repeating the same thinggg (SORRY FOR LATE REPLY I GOT TIMED OUT AGAIN. AAAA)
Once a bot said "promise you wont shoot me w a gun?" Like im supposed to be annoyed but whys that funnyš
generally the internet is a unsafe place for people of all ages, especially when it was new, where things had less restrictions
and I mean I hate how much their locking down on the app cause I ain't got 24 to crochet while waiting
Lmao id love to see more
They gotta lessen it fosho, nothing too hard on the kiddos

guys is anyone else having an issue with going to a creatorās profile but itās just blank when you know they have bots?
not even the right āyouāreā thatās crazy
exactly I can't wait that long to see how my friends oc is gonna respond to the amounts of trauma and relationship problems I wrote for his wife
Nah, id winšš
Theyre so goofy at times
cliffhangers gotta suck
It has its moments for sure lmao
EXACTLY I literally just had her have a breakdown infront of him about their child who passed bro and argue about mistreatment and him chasing what seems like to his wife a insane fantasy
Once a bot shoved me off a building (we were at ground floor tho)
I swear bots be doing stuff that don't make sense, just to do it I think they be suffering from memory loss lowkey
Why its so goofy and funny to me lmaoš
I heard a rumor that they were planning on making a whole other app for people under 18, but it doesnāt seem like thatās true.
Looks like theyāre just trying to split the ages with a wall on the same app.
so real like.. wdym band the Beatles working at mcdonalds
Iām not a techy, but I feel like that would just be extra work.
It sucks cus there are also many people (and minors like me) who just wanna rp and have fun to pass the timeš
The sad thing is, c.ai is well organized in a way compared to other platforms, thatās mainly the reason I stick around.
Nah I'll probably respawn š
Bro even ai canāt spell āyouāreā correctly
I dont like how they dont respond to LITTLE amount of blood, like bud we're in a war povš
Just say koolaid ioknow 
Koolaid dripped down my arm
or uh... strawberry jam
I was covered in koolaidš«¶
Cherry to be specific lmfaooo
strawberry jam on my wrists???
I genuinely just want to be able to have like, idk fights, something cause I like giving lengthy descriptions to make sure they bot understands but it gets cut off when I get smacked 
crafting glue all over my face š„³
CHERRY FLAVORED KOOLAID EKRGSHSVFHS
EXACTLY. LIKE FIGHT BACK BRO???
just uh... kick their butt and leave
Holā on

Excuse my brain but erm what. (realig)

Depends on which user are we asking.
