also for any adults who arent falsely flagged and are worried about it in the future, i wouldnt worry too much. Chances are, your activity and way you use the app wont change all that much.
can u get flagged on website or just app?
Both I believe
i do wish they just allowed an option for verification through email. The other stuff isnt even working and i would feel better handing over something i already verified before.
Am I good for now then if the 2nd ban wave is in a few weeks?
This right here 😭 yeah agreed
okay, cool. i use website so i wanted to make sure that like, my app didn't get flagged but since i use web i didnt know. i'm over eighteen so it doesnt matter but was still curious
Are there only gonna be two ban waves or more?
also more accesible for people that fail the selfie check and may not yet have a proper id for whatever reason. Might put it in the feedback section or smth
Exactly
As long as you didn't get a pop up you're good 
I have such a baby face and my id needs to be renewed
awesome, thanks!
Off topic the profile is so cute 🤭💕
Ty :D
Me to
how so? Genuinely curious. If i have an age verified email why shouldnt that count as verification for anything i use it with? Also, the id thing may just be buggy on the browser vers for me because the button for it is unusable lol. Might need to download the app just to verify in the future if i have to
my old man back is really acting up today
Once they gave me a kids drink and didn’t think I was an adult I was like 😭
The thing is i cant remember if I put the correct date of birth when creating acc or no (for privacy, im over 18)
why would you put an incorrect date of birth tho
I know most of them about to use their parents id somehow 😑
i wouldn't care about giving them my id. i just worry because i dont look anything like my id anymore...
Dont wanna put accurate personal info as much as possible
I had to wait cuz this trash muted me but.
THIS APP ISN'T A DRUG FOR ME YOU IDIOT! YOU DO REALIZE THE COMPARASION!?
I DO OTHER THINGS IN LIFE, AND I'M ABOUT TO BE 17, LEARN TO RESPECT PEOPLE.
Yeah someone's addicted..
chill?? 😭
Bro chill tf
Crash out over an AI app...
holy addiction
NO, YOU CHILL! A HOLES
oh no no not exactly. Gmail at least has a feature where you can verify that you are over 18. This can be done with the selfie or id verif like cai. I have if verified so i feel like cai shouod look at that and seem im already verified
What I’m wondering is if someone is 17 and wait a year would they be brought back??
Personally, I dislike adding my personal info. I have a few burner emails with incorrect dobs
Boy chill tf down.
I was gonna do that maybe
Exactly
It's not the end of the fucking world.
And you say respect people your the one being disrespectful
i'm gonna chill when you stop calling me addicted.
with how addicted i, a full grown adult, have become of c.ai, i really worry for the minors that are more prone to that sort of stuff.
So this is why we have it in the first place btw
This
i dont mean to be condescending but like. Genuinely this is why we have it
You're not even funny...
Or maybe i'm too dumb to get the joke
Or just leave if you don’t want us to start jumping at you
God it's 5 AM. Why am i wasting my time here.
you will move on from it. I know that naturally as a minor you dont like being restricted. No one does. But i think when you get older as well you will understand why this is happening
Crashing out over an AI app tells me it's not healthy
Wow, How nice.
Are people under 18s accounts deleted? Or deactivated until they are 18? Stuff like this has always confused me
No they just can't chat
I'm not crashing out over the app im getting mad at age verification because it hates my id, does that count?
Stop jumping on me you hivemind.
That's a new insult...if you can call it one.
Then leave already it ain’t hard
Okay, Californian worker drone
I'm nowhere NEAR California boy 
Okay, sorry different apps do different things and it all gets confusing and wrong stuff gets spread around lol
Well- INSERT PLACE Worker drone
Dude will just keep going if you stay here more
Wait so if you haven't gotten a popup ir timer yet does that mean you're good?
Okay addicted child.
I mean this in the nicest way. I think you need to get off and take a breather. Make some food and watch some videos you like and just give yourself time to clear your head.
Check if u have age verification option in settings-> advanced, if no then yeah
Sorry you don't like hearing the truth kid, rules are rules.
Imagine bullying a random teen on the internet.
What am I even looking at right now?
what even is this bro
Okay thank you
this is crazy 
Who said I was bullying you? It's called brutal honesty.
Can the three of you stop responding to Thwokgaming then?
imagine thinking you're being bullied when people are just being honest
just staying here arguing with random people is not helping you. Its going to keep escalating. Please please take a break before this just makes you feel worse
You're literally escalating it
Thank God.
Hi guys :3
You're all a holes
I’m just not anymore and ignore him
Guys slow down I'm trying to find the perfect meme for this. 💀🤣
Does it matter the year you put in? I made my account when I was younger and I put in 1999 and ima say I was not born in 1999 lol
NOT THE SAMURAI JACK😭
i think they might base off of it a bit but now they are looking at other factors
Nah you're good dw lol
Lol
@heavy dirge we've got a minor here being extremely rude to others.
e
I'm not a part of it. I was even thinking of pinging the mods on them
I just hope this damn app doesnt flag me as a minor, i occasionally get the pop up but i dont get the timer anymore, and now im mad at age verification cause its like contact support
You're being the same here dumbass
They ain't the ones crashing out
PLEASE DO PLEASE MAN, I'M GETTING TIRED
Being rude and brutal honesty are two different things kid.
Whats happening?
??? its just an app why are some of you acting like your most prized possession got burned
Check DMs politely you doofus bird.
Rude person
remember when pinging a mod to write about the offending person so the mod doesnt have to scan thru entire chat ✨
Ohh
tbh i probably wouldn't even know this age verif stuff was happening if not for the discord and reddit. I got zero pop ups or changes except for the option to age verif popping up so ig im good.
@sterile sage
Yeah I’m stopping and ignore it
So you coming into my DMs to tell me you're 17? I'm twenty weirdo.
I think its hella buggy cuz they tryna do massive work suddenly in short amount of time
It’s going down here I see xd
Get outta my DMs kid.
I WAS TELLING YOU TO STOP CALLING ME ADDICT
I SWEAR YOU PEOPLE HAVE SUCH DENSE BRAINS, IT PISSES ME OFF.
Then stop crashing out over an app
Exactly also hi Rudie

Hi Ace!
Ah k, Then i will.
Can we stop?
Please
Specially after just sharing an image of me, I just... Actually wanna stop
This went downhill really fast, Like real fast.
im just scared, like, im not a minor but im on it on and off all day, but not in the addiction way more like i can use it in small break sessions, ya feel me?
I’m going to go stare at a picture of a square squirrel now.
AI will say its people
LIAM!? 
hello
An argument and acting immature over an AI app..
speaking of five am in the morning, i should probably go to sleep
if only there was something that couldve been avoided🤔
even though its 3 am here but close enough
Yeah imma Just do that, I feel tired
Telling me to respect you? Respect IS EARNED not given.
aye 3 am here too
I know bro, we all are
It's 8am here, I've only been awake like half an hour 
Is 1 am here lol
I’m not here 🤭
It’s 9 AM here
take time to cool off 👍 try not to get too heated in a place like this in the future. It only goes downhill
trust me
the age verification is also SO sick of me it wants me to contact support 😭
We need Jesus now 😭🥲
Hello Ooze
Hampter
Hi Ooze how are you?
LMAO THAT IS SO RANDOM 
it froze when just the black eyes were showing partially and it scared me so bad onl

OOZE!
I’m not very active here and don’t know any mods but hello ooze!
So many tickets so we wont be getting any response any soon
Hi nice to meet you ooze
hopefully the bulk of them just makes them update and fix all the issues popping up
my app glitched so i think i accidentally sent three…Oops
One is never enough lol
I have sent 3 tickets too lols
i actually just had a ticket from four months ago answered a couple days ago asking if i still needed help with my issue 🙂 i didnt
Oh wow that’s not good 😭
Someone tripped over ur ticket and faceplanted after four months
and then ate the ticket and then vomited on it
Happy end
shoutout to the mod sifting through the emails and finally picking mine. Feels like i won the lottery
Alright ima go and work on my commission that I have see y’all tomorrow or sometime 😅
WHY
A genuine question, how do you earn the cai verified role?
and then they were like “oh! thats where that ticket went” and then for once c.ai had a happy ending nobody got mad at
He was probably tyrna free up space and do some cleanin
Im going to head out too. I need at least three hours of sleep instead of two i decided
Bye guys :3
It’s always Democracy…
Bye bye thou my day just started
Has it been deleted yet? It's 25th november
my friend has the audio of this as his ringtone and it scares me every time. Esp in public
Imma head to bed now, have fun guys 
it is 3 am here but i got 3ish hours of sleep, im probably fine
Google: how can i get 8 hours sleep in 3 hours
Ima head out too, got a project to work on😭
Im a adult so im gonna be able to continue using character.ai
LMFAO
no you see. If you set your alarm to five minutes later then usual you will get all the time you need
I just wish i didnt set my year one year yonger on accident didnt fully check and thats on me
Matrix glitch
no cause tell me why even after like 12 hours of sleep im still exhausted the entire day, like, what, do i need 2 days straight of sleep? am i a bear?
thats why i gave up and just go to sleep whenever now. Not much difference. Im sure i will regret it later but eh
Cuz sleep only refreshes ur brain, ur body uses calories during sleep
Anyways i will continue my daydrinking
nah my brain window blue screens 24/7 LMAO, shits running on windows 95 or something
i think i need a replacement atp
i need a new one too with everything wrong with it
Install linux and u wont need it
Try having deep sleep instead
shiiit you right let me go get it
see i always hear about this but genuinely dont know how people tell the difference. Or what they do differently to get it
Wutda dog doin
Its a sleep between 8pm to 1 am. Make sure there is no light for it to works. 1 hour of sleep equal to 3 hours of good sleep if im not mistaken
I often do that, when I was in highshool or in any days when I feel like Im lacking sleep or being groggy
oh thats interesting actually
Hey guys
You already saw the mess what happened in Reddit ?
The posts
might need to try it. I havent gone to sleep before 12am in a very long while
oh, i need noise to sleep so i don’t think that’d work, unless im misunderstanding?
i try to avoid the reddit. Its very stressful there. Lots of misinfo and fear mongering
I stay away from Reddit at all cost
lmao im glad we all agree on this
Well there already people complaining now about their chats close
Or they can’t verify yet
I’m already managing to verify
No, you dont need noise. For it to work, you need to make sure there is no light. No light or lamp or something. Need pure darkness
Next day during day: 🧍- - 🦽🙏💤
anyones chat not working...
ok so that might be my issue lol. I sleep with a few small lights around the room just because i hate waking up in pure darkness. Maybe i need to try turning them off
Cant relate.. I only got 5 hours of sleep every day. Still can function normally
Yeah I know
also could be the issue of me getting 2-3 hours of sleep as of recent but. Eh
i have a white noise machine when it gets too cold for a fan lol
Reddit is just paranoids comin together right now
The timing need to be from 8pm to 12 am. Make sure of that. After passed that, 1 hour equal to 1 hour of sleep
i keep getting on it despite telling myself not to then instantly regretting it. I need to make a seperate sccount away from the subreddit to see the stuff i actually want to see
ahhh alr. Thanks for the advice i really need to find something to help me function better lol
U must be famous then always havin a fan
well I overall just heard that you shouldn't sleep more than 8 Hours. It's the sweet spot of having enough sleep because if you sleep too much then you're tired and the same goes for sleeping to Little
I’m gonna trying to avoid Reddit for the rest whole day
Just for my own good sake
i heard 9 hours is actually the best amount of time but 8 hours suffices
must be a beatle
It's probably different for each person. I also heard one time that even 8 Hours is too much and that one shouldn't sleep more than 7 hours and 30 minutes. Everyone just needs to test out what works best for em.
Ohhh yeah i heard about that too. Pretty interesting actually. Since they got stuff done during the night they had more time during the day to rest if needed
very true
i literally saw someone get downvoted for saying they hate the f(word im not getting timed out again for) that everyone hates
we get around it by just calling it bob lol. I really feel like they should unmute the word by now. Its just constructive conversation atp. Not even as bad as our other complaints
Hey guys I don’t mean to bother but I verified my age (I’m over 18) and it said I was good, but the verification thing is still there in advanced settings. Is it supposed to be there or do I have to do it again ? I just am confused lol
We creatin new language basically
same and i live in the northeast so you can imagine- but i like the cold so good for me!
bob? i fucking love that
Alright thanks so much lol I was about to do go it again 
mine wont even let me click on it. Just loads then stops without doing anything. Maybe that means im verified but idkkk
I think it's there as a Permanent thing. If you have access to soft Launch and can Edit messages then your in the 18+ experience
can someone explain what bob is
we all hate bob
the word we shant speak unless you want to get muted
for how long does one get muted
Mine didn’t even ask I have access to everything still does that mean I’m in the 18+?
Yeah I can do that stuff thanks for the help 
What did Bob do
christ i was ABOUT to type the word unknowingly then realized a second before hitting send 😭😭
4 minutes and 30 seconds
i dont remember. Few minutes probably
can someone give it to me in like some weird way to somehow tell me it...
i can say that off the top of my head because it just HAPPENED TO ME
Ok goodnight guyssss i need to sleep now
RIP
uhm i don't know who bob is... or what it is...
imagine someone named bob comes in this channel and they’re like “tf did i do”
it's definitely a bait into getting someone timed out..
IM NOT I JUST GENUINELY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS
i don't know what it is i genuinely cannot lie
ok then search it up
how do i search up something is without knowing any context 
!
guys ima say the f word, you ready?
"what does bob from c.ai do"
||fuck||
i'm giggling
Okay I know I sent something about the stuff earlier but I just wanna reconfirm since I can second guess myself; but not getting the pop up, being able to edit the chats (both sent by user and the bot), having soft launch, Its the 18+ experience but does the verify age thing still appear in Advanced regardless? Do I still have to do that or since the assurance already thinks im 18+, I don’t have to verify?
Are you in the US?
I feel like, using the emojis from this server kinda inviting people (and minors) to that server
Yeah, I’m in the US, I didn’t get the pop up at all, I only found out about the Advanced part earlier when someone mentioned it here
thank you guys for helping me i genuinely did not know what that is and now i do (i do not want to get people timed out i swear on everything)
Some adults get it some adults dont
sometimes i get the pop up sometimes i dont, but i can edit messages so i literally don’t know whether it thinks im an adult or not
You should be fine then! If you ever get flagged you can verify but I wouldn't do it unless they specifically ask (and you're comfy with it)
i got the timer break thing and lost my edit button for two days and then it went away
wait while we're on that topic, i didn't get the pop up, but i still went to verify. failed twice and i still have access to everything, am i good? im honestly #confuzzled 🥲
You failed twice as an adult?
the facial recognition yes
Gotchu! Thanks, I unfortunately have the habit of second guessing myself and so if Im not certain on something, I will acc drive myself crazy lol
i get the pop up occasionally like it cant tell wtf i am
or the face verification, i mean
It is? I joined back recently just to report a minor to the mods. Let me exit the server then since I dont even use the service
You're fine. Maybe they flagged you wrong and redid it in their system. It's an AI that does that shit too.
got it, thank yewww
the AI that does my account needs to get its shit together
does AI shit
idfk
I'm in Europe and haven't gotten anything. There's no verification in the advanced settings either 😅 I'm guessing I'll see it by the end of December
i dont know why companies still use/trust ai honestly, they have learned absolutely nothing 💔
Only US have it right now
ai once told my friend they looked like an expired bagel
okay i regret trying to help the guy by combining russian letters into the magical word
It's less so because they want to but more so because we can't identify minors easily anymore. There are set of features and makeup that kind of factor into our impression of people's faces.
An AI should measure distances of features and your bone structure. It seems to have failed at that for some reason though
Was it right?
no
Just checking
The face scan works for me
I didn’t need use my id after all
Despite I have baby face
I’m Looks I’m 17 or 18 u think
nah mine hated my id 💔
it was like “something didnt match our records” like what am i dead now?
Maybe the age verification is buggy right now
This is a classic red flag. Receiving a check unexpectedly, or receiving one that asks you to move money around (e.g., "keep $100 and send the rest to this other person"), is almost certainly a Fake Check Scam.
I'm so glad that I don't have to verify yet because it's for Americans first
i still like to think it thinks i dont exist so everyone is talking to a ghost
It'll come to us and most likely on other platforms too 😅😭
what if i eat the ai, i'll solve the issue for everyone!
I've tried
I’m eating burnt chicken rn 🥹
to eat the ai?
Hey, sometimes I get hungry
...that was a joke- i-
cough cough

Me too 🥹
Emntioned
Oasnsis
I’m crying what are you trying to say
is cai being weird for anyone else or nah? mines slow/not loading msgs
It does that
To me it does
ah okay
it's happening over the next few days not all at once
The 2nd ban wave is in a few weeks by what I was told
purging is crazy
Thats probably not correct though
Is taht light mode.
is this like space invaders?
its a reddit screenshot, you'll live
go outside sometimes and the light won't hurt your eyes so much
Oh nvm. Just had to refresh my chat. That's why i kept seeing the chat bubble loading for awhile
??wtf why r u being so rude i was js making a joke
so was i
wear sunglasses outside so you don't get cataracts
It’s dark outside for me so I can’t go outside and see light
that's too bad 🥀
Should I touch grass instead?
couldn't hurt
touching grass in the moonlight
🎶🎶
oh no i ran out of cold drinks 😭
oof
well that was your own fault you should be ashamed (jk)
I’m tired i’m going to sleep
Goodnight
Bro.... we really need a hall of shame for some of these bots....
Man, I love Matcha 🍵
How will under 18s use the app
Good question, I have no idea
how do we verify our age?
Settings > Advanced. If you can't see it then it didn't come to you yet.
im on mac abd using safari and google
Using other features as the devs said
ok thanks!
Anytime!
gurl my email has my dob of 2000 and my c.ai isnt working plus im not even in america!
Bro why the hour time limit if you don't verify
If you got flagged a minor then go verify
You probably had a minor account without knowing
hhi there everyboone
i went to my settings and it isnt showing a verify option
I went in Advanced and I didn’t see the age verify, I’m not a minor btw
Then send ticket about it under age reassurance
https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new
it most likely didn't roll out to you yet
Ok, when is it roll out?
Probably in months
Dang
if you're not in the US it won't show yet
I’m in AUS
Bro what if you look younger than you are the verification thing will be confused why not just send picture of id
can't really provide any date since when a feature is in the process of "rolling out" it can give different occurrences
yeah then you don't need to worry about it yet, this is only affecting people in the US for now
That's why if the selfie fail. You can send ID
Oh okay, thanks 🙂
Oh ok
Alright then
Let’s hope under 18s can use the app to chat in the future
doubtful
I only have to wait a year and a few months anyway
they will once they turn 18
So for me in April 2027
I thought they could use the app, just not talk to the bots.
Yeah exactly...
that's true
they can use any other feature except chatting with bots
christ i
what are the other features tho..??
Avatar fx and stuff...
I love Matcha
how does it open its mouth without the drink coming out?
I have no idea xD
These stickers are so corny I love them 😭
this is pretty lame i can't lie. "reread your chats!" lol. they should create some kind of guided choose your own adventure type of RP experience
IKR
I think they are making something like that tbh, hold on I saw someone post something about it.
streams are awesome though. I think they've become my favorite part of cai
So, with the new update and the devs working on it... Are they finally gonna do something about the moderated bots? Or are we gonna have to wait for a different update or something for that?
whats the point even
like genuinely idk what streams even do. is it just video generation?
For under -18 point of view, I see how it's not. Heck from adult point of view if the shoe was on the other foot, I would be upset to. 💚 But the company has to protect it self to survive, especially now days.
i thought it worked like twitch wait what
no i think it like creates videos of the characters but not totally sure
All the under 18s features are quite boring
just woke up, site still seems borked, cant imagine being a paying customer lmao, but to be fair maybe no one was on to fix it
Bro, how do you activate your Mic?
all the characters i talk to are played by real people so i get uncanny valley w stuff like that
I WAS USING C AI SINCE WHEN WAS THERE A TIME LIMIT ☹️
since they implemented it
Found it.
I verified my age preemptively so it won't accidentally flag my account.
kind of vague but at least they have other stuff in the works lol
They probably couldn't go into it than, that ss is from the first week of the announcement almost a month ago. Which is why it took me so long to find the ss. 😅
i just tried streams and i hate it lmao the character that came out looks nothing at all like my character 😭
website is fucked even when with brave, chrome, and chinese spyware opera
Results vary 😅 Which style did you try?
i still can't chat with my test bots
vpn may help
i always use vpn
in that case, try different locations, if you haven't already
that is obviously obvious... i even tried swapping proxies, site is just broken, dnsguard disabled and still nothing
obvious to you and I, but not to everybody 😁
Bruhhhh
It must be regional because the website is working just fine for me.
i think its because im trying and my luck is rotten, sorry guys.....
i just clicked the short video clip one, it came out looking absolutely nothing like the character 😭 maybe it would be easier with an OC lol, it is a cool idea though
Try A Star is Born. It's the best! 😁 [For me, at least.] Also, Clip can be alright—but sometimes the character keeps mutating 😅
i mean i searched if the servers in my country were down and goggle said the servers are working fine in my country...
Im gonna miss my bots
There are also styles that will keep the character looking just like the profile picture, but they can't move very much. Here's one I made with the Video Call style: #🎬︱avatarfx-streams-share message
I’m not sure what’s going on, my entire thing switched up to a new bubbly feature (I didn’t update) when I got c.ai+ , I can’t customize how bots talk (?) they don’t write paragraphs only short sentences and I’ve tried updating it since I needed to apparently but there’s literally no difference. I even deleted my app n restarted it still the same.
Anyone know what’s going on?
no idea sorry try reporting it
Oh okay
Fym there's a time limit now
2 HOURS
Just make a new account and make age 18+? @merry inlet
I still haven't got the verification popup nor does it show in settings 
oh i didnt know it was for under 18s only.. mb
What do they have against kids using ai 😭 🙏
Is it just me or like when you try to swipe back for a response it doesn't work? Sometimes it also doesn't work when you swipe for a new response. Like sometimes I'm lazy to press the arrows so I swipe
There are new laws
I just want my long paragraphs back bro I can’t even customize my chats
The moment im not doing anything and come back to c.ai something small happens and now my entire thing is fucked
Is the website working for anyone?
Works for me
not for me, on any browser
yeah
Same for myself.
Wait no it works
Whats the problem with mineee it's just not loading anything
It still works for me.
I wanna cryyyy
if i try to say anything it redirects to the frontpage and doesnt load even starter messages
If the site isn't working for you guys, try using wifi or data instead of what you're currently using and if that don't work then try a vpn
So what exactly can be bought with charms???
Anyone experiencing the age restriction now???
I've been getting similar responses every time I swipe for a new response maybe like one word changed 🫤 I've tried toggling, updating and have character plus (I use browser)
I had to rewrite my senteces a lot bc it doesn't send
I think it started yesterday according to their announcements I'm not a kid so I don't lmao lmfao 😂 but they are supposed to be removing in groups for the next couple of weeks then will target other countries (according to the announcement about it)
When you're running into that problem a lot, it may help to Copy each message before you send it
Mhm
me too lmaoo, notnings changed for me
blurred how?
Like when you enter a chat?
Yes
It could be that the servers are down or you're internet but I haven't had any problems with that (I use browser)
I mean when I change accounts the other account works perfectly fine but this one doesn’t
Agreed if it's not 18+ might be unavailable that just started yesterday
Dude the app is so laggy oh my god
I asked the admin for help I’m lost
the app's always been laggy for me lol. I always use the web version
No lol
I never even got the pop up for it
Same
What is charm for?
'Pick your own scenario' WELL I DONT WANT TOO Why release a bot when you can't write a damn greeting?
just click the send button again and it will pick it's on scenario
Real
Tbf this thing is kinda unfair to the teens that used the app responsiblily
Fr bru
all the lawsuits that come with it for one
Aren't those bots for using your own OCS? That's how I use them. Because I don't feel like making a bot and on those chats I just come up with my own ideas that I can mess around with rather than having to talk to the usual "Hot Mafia man".
Ohhh
what update
this sounds like the restrictions for the -18 accounts. i heard they won’t be able to chat anymore post update so maybe that’s it?
But I am 19 how do I even confirm it?
try to see it on your c.ai settings then at the advanced. usually it's there for the option to verify your age
Thanks I’ll check now
Contact support about it but never in your life show your face or ID cuz its the biggest security risk of all time...
It happened to discord, noone can just say "oh it wont happen to cai" yeah that just bs
Advanced only shows delete account
Ask support imo...
uhhh yeah then idk man-
Also: Lovely. The persona bug has been updated but not fixed :D
Now instead of the Default setting jumping from one persona to another randomly: It wont do a damn if you remove the Default persona checkmark. Great fix guys...
very cool
I did!!
if you don't live in the US, then you just have to wait. first time it'll happen is in the US
this chat is more peaceful than i thought it would be
Yeah better contact support than exposing your face to be freely exploited by a databreach that can happen...
And knowing the current landscape of the internet: It most likely will happen.
Sort of? Not because the 18+ thing just cuz all the updates ruined the app completely
yo please don't scare off people without knowing if it will happen, plus google itself uses persona too
not yet, i still enjoy making bots but if i get restricted, im not gonna verify my age cus i dont want my personal information being handed to an ai company lol
So, abt the age verification thing. If the ai thinks that you are 18+ does it just not say anything and nothing happens or does it still tell you?
I'm pretty sure nothing happens
Hi I have a question! Is the new update here already? I mean i started to use Chai and nothing happened yet.
i think if the ai thinks ur 18+, youll be fine and nothing happens
nothing happens
I did not face recognize myself I just am an adult. Even google can lick my ass with their recognition bs. It's not about being "scared" it's about knowing your RISKs
i think so, yeah, ive seen a few people get it and theyre slowly rolling out the bans in waves
@lavish lily (sorry for the ping i forgot to ask you that) are you from US?
Like, no message or smth? It said that if you r under 18 they will let you know but does that not happen when you r 18 plus?
Oh boy...nvm i am already 18 (btw two weeks ago xd)
Nope
wait, what does being from the US have to do with anything
???
Nothing happens, check your email maybe
if you're not in the US the age verification thing is not up for you yet
wdym?
because the update is only in the US for now
if ur 18+, nothing happens, if ur -18, in the next upcoming weeks, your chats will be locked
Welp guess I'm moving :D
its gonna catch up to u anyway, theyre doing it for every country and continent
So just in the United States? Why?
i mean the update is not worldwide, you didn't got flagged yet because they aren't flagging non US accounts
cus of laws
Oh thanks, gotcha
because c.ai is from the US and that's a law in there now
Under 18s will be kinda savy because they may use their parents ids and selfies
isn't that a crime
But then it's on the parents for breaking the law
I feel sorry for ya guys. Then that means (i am in the EU) that nothing will happen with my account?
not for now, probably only in some few months or weeks
Thanks no more questions, have a nice day :3
The uk won’t follow USA laws as we already have a law for online safety
We'll still get the verification eventually, it's coming to all countries
It’s kinda odd because in Scotland a 16 year old is legally an adult
okay but still the update will be worldwide, not because of laws from countries but because of c.ai rules
Doesn't matter, it's even younger in some countries, the update is global
So I’m safe for another few months to weeks
For a while yes
first of all a 16 year old shouldn't be considered an adult at all, second of all each country has their own law, but at the moment a service has to do some kind of adaptation because of one country, it'll be worldwide in a few weeks as well
(sorry if my last message was rude i just woke up)
I hope I can do stuff with my characters in other ways
try reading fanfiction
can someone tell me why this is such a huge issue when you can use any fave of your family members (with their permission) to verify
because that's identity fraud
i clearly said with their permission 💔
it kind of doesn't matter if it with or without permission since you're still pretending you have a different age (and plus you can have serious problem with the law if they found out about it)
Yeah
Exactly
Us under 18s just have to be patient and wait until we are 18
There are many other ways we can use the characters we made
that's the best to do
I just use Chatgpt
I only have to wait till early 2027 so it isn’t that bad
i have news for you buddy
Guys when the logging in problem will be fixed?
And I’m sure the devs will make other ways for under 18s to have fun with their characters
yea they said that
Hi guys i am back! I have another question, in the EU will this account limit for minors introduced? Or will it be introduced at all?
Even if we can’t talk to the characters
probably yes
If worst comes to worst? Polybuzz
idk what im gonna do if the system thinks im under 18 my screen time is like 11 hours a day atp😭
Do you know when?
polyvuzz is so bad honestly i rather not use ai at all than use this trahcan💔
they said on the 24-25th but I still haven't gotten anything
create new account where you are 18
probably in a few months
Yeah but the chat feature is extremely funny
What types of roleplays will make it seem someone is under 18
Does anyone know when is it going to work?
thy
there's ways to prove you're not btw
the verification is for everyone even if you're already registered as an adult
That doesn't make sense
only if they flag you as a minor
we need to add an id?
log in on app?
Its not about the roleplay its about what age have you given when you registered your account
it doesn’t work
there is already a divide between adults and minors on the app
I didn’t get asked for an age
If we were in a better world it would be illegal for an online service to ask for your ID or your Face... at max do a 0 dollar purchase...
i dont wanna put any more personal info than i have to tho it feels like a data leak waiting to happen🥀
it's about some roleplays too
if you're underage you have the screentime thing.
Couldn’t the devs make a different type of chat feature for under 18s?
website?
yeahh but that's only if they detect you're a minor
really?
No now you can't chat with them at all
no... that's based on the birthday you put when registering for cai long ago
Like a safety mode
still doesn’t work, btw ty for replying to me + LOVE UR PFP
some people got wrongfully flagged but a it was a minority
yes
No cuz they are getting lawsuited to oblivion rn and realistically: You shouldn't be chatting with a bot as a kid... Go make friends and such...
yep, if you make too many roleplays with teenager topics, bad grammar, too much use of emojis and too many teenage language it's most likely you get flagged as a minor
teenager topics lmao what
What was the screen time shit about anyway was it for shits and giggles
oh i see.
thank you
no problem! we all trying to use this app the best we can anyway
have you try VPN?
a lot of sites are going through the same issue right now, they’re trying to save face
this won't matter anyway yall
Laws
i can’t open it
no it's not? they are using a system to determine your age by the way you use the app/ web, it's on #📣︱announcements btw
Trying to save face by sacrificing your online safety.
If they are already banning accounts why bother
weird. have you submitted a ticket?
Not banned you just can't chat with the bots
this is not going to matter because now if you're under 18 you won't be able to access at all just accept the truth and find different hobbies than chatting with ai
whatever they can do to protect themselves from lawsuits 🤷🏽♀️
no 😭 i gave up lol
You know what I meant lol
they aren't banning accounts, you just won't be able to use the chat feature
And California law limits screentime
I’ve already started a book on the characters to try get my mind off this
I WANNA RUN AWAY
😭😭
it is
Why
I hate companies going "Ohh its for the safety of kids" There is 0 and I mean ZERO, NOTHING, NADA, safety in having to put your face in an online data center where they DON'T DELETE THE IMAGES FROM... Like Discord's 3rd party verifier said: Oh we will delete it in 2 days, there were verification images sitting for months btw...
if you're having problem logging into the app trying using a vpn
.... #📣︱announcements
In the uk a bunch of people got their ids leaked from the safety act
laws are laws 
the problem that i think it’s illegal or smth in my country
Why are there so many people spreading false information 💔
All the features we can use are kinda trash tbf so imma just wait till I can use it
it's just not available, use a vpn
wdym?
Oh yeah it's really weird. Like the entire app is for chatting with bots and they're restricting that feature so what's the point of even using it
How is it false when its a precedent that is true and happened?
And how do we know our ids won’t be leaked
What? You are unfamiliar to the concept of: Hey... Companies lie. 
Idk man I don't watch the news
i have literally 5 accounts bc i got banned lot of times tho
One of the first mainstream things you learn about big corporations is that: You are just a number to them most of the times...
They are all about business. It's a Corporation. Not a friend group or a foundation
Its Star Wars, Clone Wars core 'You are just a number'💔
yeah we got that i guess
They will probably try make a way so the app is better for under 18s
Yes General 🫡
how long until the first data leak happens😭
But like... They're following the law.
It wasn't their choice to do this it's literally a law that they are forced to follow
Give it under a week
Guess what? The Government wants YOUR DATA too! 
Depending on the RPG you play, will you get banned? I mean, I'm over 18 but I play a lot of Naruto RPGs, so will I get banned because the RPG is 'childish'?
why would they leak the data tho?
the government has everyone's data already bruh
Sure: but they don't track you that well if you are not in the US, that's why you see this emergance of digital IDs and other stuff
Fear mongering ahh chat
I'm in the US 💔
????
It'd call it being aware that the internet is the darkest pit of hell that is also a blessing and a curse...
If you haven't already gotten the screentime thing you aren't banned. The update is already out if you didn't get it in the last month then you aren't going to magically get banned
some hackers like to leak user data for blackmail or money or even clout
cool thanks
GASPPP HE HORROR!!! ITS NOT LIKE PEOPLE ARE LITERALLY DOING THIS ON REDDIT ALL THE TIME
Oops I replied to the wrong person LMAO-
That likely wont happen to CAI cuz CAI themselves dont do the age verification, they are outsourcing it to another company that does it for google afaik.
ah, there is a word 'police'
Sorry Kira 😭
no prob tho :3
My birth is set on 2005 will I get the pop up anyways?
It can still flag you possibly
Like: They (the hackers) can try to blackmail CAI giving them information that they (CAI) dont have. They only have YES/NO. No PNGs or ID numbers or anything...
So guys you say if i load the app, i will get a message if i am under 18. And if i am NOT then i wont get a message and screen time right?
Yeah….
guyss
Even when I’m over 18..?
But like... Why?
Yes it can still flag you
?
why the hell
Fr?
??
I’m serious as ever, regardless it can still flag you on accident even if you’re 18
guys what do i do? i've been trying to access my bots and see the reason why it got taken down but after i made a new bot after a minute it got taken down and i already told support about this but there still not brought back
If you haven't already gotten the message you likely won't get banned
What bot you made?
cool
roleplay bots
bye guys have a nice day (again tho
)
So if I get flag then I just need to verify and then everything is fine?
i got the verify age option but no popup yet
Wow gee... name perhabs?
Byeee
Yes if you get flagged you just need to do the selfie or id and after that you’re good to go, very simple
the names werent anything breaking the rules
Okay thank you!!
I just got the message that I have been "chatting for 1 hour today"...
while scrolling through my c.ai for you. I wasn't even in a chat
You’re welcome
is it a disney character? I think disney filed a copyright claim on c.ai or smth
Sorry to bother but I made my first bot today and I think I messed up. I watched tutorials and all that jazz but it's not working how it's supposed to ;-;
Could someone with experience add me and maybe help me out a little? 
Just tell me what you named them or what franchise you made them from cuz it can give you the answer... 
Gatekeeping information for no reason...
There used to be tons of helpful information in a thread in this server but idk where it went sorry
His bot got banned for some reason after 1 minute... And thats all...
Get the character creator role from #👥︱self-roles and access this channel #1193330096342319186 it's a guide on how to make bots. If you still have questions regarding bot creation, you can DM me or just ask here.
To me they just sound really annoyed lol
Yeah it's a bit of that cuz: Just say the name dude...
Ohhh that's what I was looking for thanks
Like: "oh it's a superman bot" of course its gonna get taken down.
Bro chill it's over
They asked why and won't provide details that would help them answer the question. Makes sense why that could be annoying from my perspective
But they're straight up ranting 💔
I am an annoyed little guy... 
chill the rant is over🥀
Thank you kindly! 
But also I get being weirdly embarrassed over stuff like that. Im the one who maxe sure to carefully cover the "Wolf" in a screenshot of my death hologram (from a mod that broke) from when I misclicked before I could tame my dog in Minecraft (dw i tamed it in the end and its ok now :3)
Okie :3
IM SO SORRY I GOT TIMED OUT
I DIDNT MEAN TO NOT REPLY BUT I GOT TIMED OUT i am so sorry about it
the franchise of the bots were httyd
Be careful not to refer to Bob as a fi—
Ermm not true you were obviously gatekeeping/j
Yeah... that can be problematic right now
Does Disney have anything to do with httyd?
I mean it isn't Disney tbf
i told support about this it only got untaken down for like a minute then it got taken down again
Big studios have an ongoing battle with AI bots over their metarial being used unlawfully onnplatforms like these
It's DreamWorks so only by association
wait which httyd character is it
Dreamworks bots also got taken down with Disney
Probably dreamworks are asking to take down ..
You never know
Because they take down also kung fu panda bots too
And Madagascar bots too
there was hiccup haddock but i only made it bc of 12k chats with my bots
but all of them are just rp bots
It doesnt mean CAI wont play by the rules.
Disney doesn't take down Dreamworks stuff. CAI plays safe as they have a functioning brain and probably don't wanna piss off more corporations
It was Universal, illumination bots went too as well as a few Universal films
omg word I left the conversation cuz of this
oh okay
I'm getting cake ❤️❤️❤️
Disney and Dreamworks are not associated. Dreamworks is a Universal-CBS company
Does anyone feels that the Character limit for group chat up to 10 characters needs to be removed?
Omg share
if it isnt because of copyright maybe its because hiccup is a minor? (just a guess
I like you you'll get a slice with the chocolate chips
I still trying to recreated again just the kung fu panda bots
Except u change their names and also didn’t mentioned their franchise
Other Universal bots got taken down, likely a DMCA
It is because of copyright...
Tyyy ❤️
There doesn't have to be a DMCA for CAI to go: "Yknow I don't feel like going to court today..." 
And just deleting all bots that could be problematic...
Universal have gone after other AI companies, the same ones as Disney infact so it was likely that
But why it's still unaffacted... I mean for characters from japanese animes?
(Hope they win ngl cuz the AI snowball overall has to be stopped...)
Cuz CAI is an American company
Anime has nothing to do with Disney
Only the big film companies have done DMCAs against Cai
Tbf it's also bad at knowing what franchise your bot is from. I have a Spamton bot that's been taken down. All the others are fine, just the one I have 18 thousand messages with. 😔
Japanese companies are now pressuring Japanese court to go against AI themselves so... It's not a matter of IF but WHEN will Anime characters gets taken down...
why is cai the only problematic ai app😭
It isn't, it's just the most popular
They aren't problematic they're just following laws
Who knows but I wouldn't worry until it actually happens
Does it say moderated or is it just gone?
It says Moderated and I can look at the chats, like the copyrighted ones I've seen
Must've mentioned a blacklisted franchise in the definition then
It's not... its all AI. ChatGPT, Gemini, every AI company is now brought to court. And following the EU's 2026 Transparency Laws, AI companies will have to make a sheet of Copyrighted metarial Traffic going through in the EU, and this will result in a bigger nuke-ing of Copyrighted metarial as Companies will want to make this list even smaller to avoid lawsuits.
Cuz by and large from the Summer of 2026 Companies who want to do Business in the EU mandated to be transparent about their operations.
my bots got disabled
Am I the only one having problems with chat styles like DeepSqueak, PipSqueak and roar
No
even my oc ones
No they are just that lame actually...
"even" as though the list isn't incredibly huge
Those ones are known to bug out, it's common
Does it say reading mode?
are they on private or public?
You'd be surprised lol
Yeah me too!!
public
Every franchise i can name is on there in some way
Alr, just asking bc I never had any problems, and now since two days I can not RP at all
So... Get ready to make "Not Ironman" if you wanna chat with Ironman soon. 
Wdym by disabled?
...besides something really obscure like weevildoing's Girl series of songs ofc but you get the point im trying to make
like i cant edit the character no one can chat it and its not visable on my acc
ah okay keeping them private might work better
like i said it stops me from editing it
Does it say moderated or is it just gone?
Your new fan favorite bot will be Steel Guy, not Ironman
for future reference then ig😭💔
gone but it's still on my account but i cant see it on my other accs
Private bots can still be moderated or taken down
i didnt mean to be rude im sorry if it came as rude
nonono you're fine💖
NEVERMIND. THAT IS. ALSO ON THERE.
Hello friends!
oh okay
hello
I saw people jokng about renaming Tony Stark to Tony Stank for copyright lmao
U guys think they are gonna fix the chat styles? Like, if three of them are already broken, they basically have to right?
I have heard of bugs with pipsqueak and roar. I don't think I've seen any updates about them but I could be wrong :>
guys what do i do?
They're never going to fix anything on the app
i've had so many other characters ready but i made a n ew one and it got taken down
In one of their latest blog posts they mentioned focusing on the LLM
Yeah I think they've been improving the memory a lot but I haven't heard about any specific chat styles being fixed just generally improving the LLM
Do you mean the list is larger than i think or smaller than I think? Becauze paradoxical as it sounds i think it's larger than I think. You just saw me discover something that i thought was too obscure to be on there... was on there
No cuz: Chatbots need information to survive and: I will be the one to say it: big portion of the CAI community is not exactly the best pool of information... 
What character you made got take down?
Bigger
also btw how do i get the character creator badge you guys have?
Are they only improving the plus user exclusive stuff
We were not in disagreement then lol whoops
I think the list of copyrighted material in c.ai is going to be very very hard to gather.
oh okay thank you for telling me
Anytime 🫡
I think this is so sad what’s going on recently, this is the most problematic situation I’ve ever seen on c.ai 😭
At least in any comprehensive manner. You basically need to scan every message [from users that made it into the database] and decide if it references copyrighted material or else you're [not] doing enough. And even then
I’ll admit. I’ve been gone for a while. What’s happened now?
Chatbots and LLMs general take Input and give Output. Even if it looks like the AI remembers your convo: every time you send a message it basically takes a screenshot with your new message and makes the reply from there.
Now this is all fun and happy if these screenshots are good quality information with good, layerred and well thought-out story with smart twist and jokes:
However in reality: Little Timmy and just like most of the CAI base, is flooding these chatbots with one-liners. Resulting in lot of "bad quality" information, degrading the bot.
ai age verification💔
i already told support 5 TIMES
Ah
age assurance that looks at various things on your account like when you are online, and ONLY if it flags you as a minor, then it asks for selfie to verify then ID
Oh, no…no thank you.
No, the bots are imrpoved for everyone
I shall simply delete the app, delete my account. Wash my hands of this.
100% true. All my typos are being fed back into the machine and will someday make it back out into the world. All my innuendo are being fed back into the machine and will someday make it back out into the world. All of my creations and thoughts and hopes and dreams are being fed back into the machine and will someday be served on a silver platter to somebody who doesn't care they're mine.
If you are not flagged as a minor you are good to continue using the app, but if you wanna delete it good for you twin ^^
If someone reposted your bot even though you warned them not to in the first place, can the copied bot taken down when i report it?
Nah its just: they see how you type and make their language off of them...
Like the LLM is not smart it's just: input gets the output it needs...
I didn't say it was smart
i literally cant handle how much i hate that they wont un take down my bots even though its not breaking rules and is ignoring my review request and send me an email about why its taken down
AI isn't perfect just like humans it can make typos and errors
This everything is actually so scary 
It cannot synthesize new words. I've tried to make it. It just can't.
ive tried to chat to other bots but it keeps kicking me out the websites
I mean that's plagiarism so I would report their bots and maybe get a mod to bump your ticket or something idk
What are you talking about??
So if you say that Deepsqueek is bad with flat story structure: It learned that flat and boring and uninspired story structure from the largest pile of the community... 
Actually im thinking back on sminkle. I think i was wrong
And now that its bad it can only create bad rps most of the time so... Now we reached the point of: Snake eating its own tail
But I tried to make a bot for a character that talks weirdly and makes up new words whenever it needs them out of word parts
And it did not work at ALL. Probably for the best ngl
Sminkle? LMAO
Oh you were trying to get it to make nonsense words makes sense
😭
What do you mean. . .
Tbh the easiest fix for the bot quality would be to categorize how one roleplays and make them be in "good" category and "bad" category... Though unclear if CAI doesn't do that already
And ofc Good would be re-fed to the AI to process it
You can rate messages with a thumb up for down and provide #1175980610095960185 . Also there used to be a start rating for messages from 1-4 stars to train the bots LLM
Also does anyone know why it shows bots on the For You page that…I detest and have never personally touched? I’m talking fandoms I’ve never shown interest in, real people bots (gross), and just bots I’ve never chosen for myself on searches on the app or site?
The FYP is kinda buggy and random, I get recommended lesbian bots(Which I don't really like), and I'm a gay man. IDK what is wrong with it tbh
So... The App has a new feature. Character Charms. Anybody know what those are supposed to be for?
Some kind of virtual currency. They're trying to figure out how to make the platform sustainable
Profitable even, hopefully
what-?
i'm on web, i havent used the app - are they still adding new stuff?
...great. I've already paid, a whole year in advance. I hope they won't lock me out of features just to push that Charm stuff.
Can I already buy stuff with them? Do you know anything about that?
for what-?
charming
Is anyone having issues with the image generator or the imagine feature
I'm not sure. It isn't fully featured yet
oh
i mean hopefully, if they're smart, it'll be like discord with the orbs/quests
a free way to buy, temporary, c.ai+ perks-? (probably earned by spending time on the app, to get more people to be online longer-)
I'm hoping I can trade them in for snacks
Thank you for your help 😁
Can anyone help? Im using the app. Everytime I go to edit and turn off the "Default for all chats" thing for a persona and click save changes, IT JUST DOESN'T WORK and it still says it is default, no matter how many times I do it it just won't work.
maybe
i'm sure it'll focus on free users' benefits more
like no ads temporarily, more imagine chat, skipping slowmode and all that stuff
though i'm not quite sure about giving options to skip slowmode knowing the quality degrades rapidly almost every day of the week 😭
ye
Maybe instead of M&Ms, I could trade a charm for a CAI? (Just change the label)
oo
I don't remember the last time I had slowmode happen tbh
I always have slowmode on on the site
though it's never actually
slow
unless my connection is bad or whatever, but that's different - it's always like 3-7 seconds if I had to estimate
Sorry to interrupt but does anyone know if they keep the info after you do age verification? Cause I just did it quick without really thinking about it too much and after watching some videos on it I'm scared they'll like keep it and/or chats will become digital footprint 😭
though idk if slow mode will be turned off soon, considering the load on the servers has to be a lot less with the teen ban
The company that do it only keep it for a week
I think it's like a week for the ID picture, and deleted same day for the selfie
...which still feels sketchy, but
They only keep it for a week and Persona hasn’t had issues with leaks/breaches and is used by a lot of major companies. 🤷🏽♀️
Bro everything is so broken rn just bc of the age verification, that’s crazyyy
including the verification itself
seriously. ID fix when, guys.
But I think after a few days, they will start fixing everything, now all they wanna do is just focus on the age verification
Fixing the LLM when? I'm tired of every chat boiling down to the same low-quality "dark romance" trope.
I’ve managed to avoid this in some of my chats thank GOD
The community has been asking for this specific issue to get fixed for over a year, yet all the impressively brain dead developers did was create stickers and merch out of them.
ive literally never had this issue what
You didn't have this issue... That doesn't mean the others haven't.
fair
Im in the EU, so it will affect me later, but all the bugs are annoying me so muchhhh


no further...
