what they gonna do? take my $3? like

[hot ridge]

I wouldn't give my ID either, but you don't have to do that

[quasi pollen]

I think it’s valid for people to not want to upload their government id

[solid crystal]

no fs, its up to the ppl at the end of the day

[hot ridge]

ID is only if the selfie fails

[quasi pollen]

True

[hot ridge]

But even then, you still don't have to

[quasi pollen]

I think? It hasn’t happened to me yet

[keen drift]

No one is saying it isn't.
But, Ig for some of us, especially older, it's a common thing.

I mean, you are online and you leave trace. If someone wanted to steal your identity, they would've already.

And I've been on so many apps that had leaks etc, and I'm still here with no weird debt to my name xD

[solid crystal]

unc recognizes unc - we see each other pooks

[keen drift]

[hot ridge]

I'm "older" and i have never given my ID to an online company that wasn't a place of employment, so that is not a universal experience

[quasi pollen]

I’m also “older” and have never had to give my ID to a website

[keen drift]

I gave it to place of employment and they exploited it. So, just cuz you give it to an employer doesn't mean they won't do anything about it.

[hot ridge]

If people don't wanna share their ID to Persona they're not weird for that.

It's more weird to try and convince people they should

[solid crystal]

me trying to remember if i gave and id verification to doordash rn...

[compact tartan]

exactly

[keen drift]

I never said they were lol.
I'm saying that, the moment internet started existing , you've left online trace.

[quasi pollen]

DoorDash asks if you try to purchase alcohol I believe

[solid crystal]

yup then i defo did LMAO

[compact tartan]

i dont like the update, but is is because of california law, and c.ai wanted to put it in more safety features to avoid lawsuits, which i understand

[timber canopy]

true :p all information is def already out there

[hot ridge]

Correct, but also you show it to the driver at the door, so they don't save anything in the app

[keen drift]

By all means, do not share your ID especially if you don't feel comfortable

I'm saying this as someone who worked jobs where I could see ALL the info of people

[quasi pollen]

I think an average digital footprint is different than your government identification tho

[compact tartan]

but i would say in general i do not think that sharing your ID to use social media is at all similar to sharing your ID in a work place setting, or at a bar, etc, because social media is a luxury in a way

[timber canopy]

same shit companies have everything dude they don’t care about anyone or anything

[hot ridge]

Yeah. Not all of us post our photos all over Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or whatever else you listed earlier. I don't even use any of those services.

[timber canopy]

Same, the thought that the stuff I play out on c.ai could be linked to my name and all has me shitting bricks hahaha

[compact tartan]

yeah

[hot ridge]

A dude asked me once if I had snapchat and I was like "No, I'm not 19"

[compact tartan]

i think i only post on snapchat and tiktok, but i have embarassing family photos on facebook lmfao

[solid crystal]

so i mean, it just varies person to person fr - my digital footprint been around since 2012, probably earlier lolol

[red hull]

Chat is the slow bot fixed now?

[hot ridge]

I have a digital footprint, I'm not saying I don't. Just that I don't post the stuff that's being claimed lol

[solid crystal]

cant relate, im 23 and ive got memories from 2016 in there. then again, im not in the dating scene. and if i were, i def wouldnt be using snap as means of comms haha

[keen drift]

Mine has been around since... 2009? I believe?

Anyways, again, I'm not telling anyone to post their ID!!
Please do not say what I didn't mean!

I'm just saying that many, who are concerned, have in a way already left an online trace in one way or another.

While no, it is not the same, any irrelevant info on an ID CAN be blurred and just show your face and date of birth. Most online places ask for name, email, date of birth so those are the info you can quite easily find online if you dig deep enough.

But internet safety should always remain top priority.

[solid crystal]

always be safe!

[hot ridge]

That I can agree with

[timber canopy]

i just want the app to stop being slow </3

[quasi pollen]

We aren’t saying you’re telling people to post their IDs. We are using this conversation as a springboard for more conversation /gen

[keen drift]

I just wanted to be direct since I'm also autistic so I may come off as rude or blunt but I'm not trying to be!
Hence why I stated that.
Not saying that you did! ❤️

[quasi pollen]

Yeah no problem hehe that’s why I clarified with a tone tag

[compact tartan]

its okay im nd myself and i didnt think u were being rude

[solid crystal]

i too can come off as rude but thats usually cause i mean it

[keen drift]

But yeah, essentially; c.ai uses third party provider for ID/age verification.

If you are not comfortable DO NOT share your information.

I seen many people who did it with no problem and while I think I'd do it, if the moment ever comes, I'll think about it.

[solid crystal]

been did it. if roblox was gonna have me do it, cai wasnt a big thing for me (personally, ofc)

[hot ridge]

I;m ok with doing the selfie part, I dont really think i'd have issues

[keen drift]

Yeah. I might xD I still get asked for an ID when buying cigarettes (im almost 26)

[quasi pollen]

Yeah same about selfie hehe

[solid crystal]

me at the liqua sto </3

[hot ridge]

i dont think I could look under 20 if I tried

[quasi pollen]

Legally they must ask anybody regardless of how they look when purchasing cigarettes or alcohol

[keen drift]

Unfortunately, in Croatia they don't

[quasi pollen]

Oh fr? That’s crazy

[solid crystal]

it can vary by state!

some states ask for it from me, others dont

[keen drift]

But I mean, those that know me just sell me.

[timber canopy]

it really just depends on the store i go to for me

[compact tartan]

personally i'm in iowa, and it depends store to store. like my dad is in his forties and generally doesn't get ID'd becase he looks visibly above 21

[keen drift]

The age for buying alcohol and cigarettes here is 18

[compact tartan]

ohhh

[solid crystal]

right! i think some states is if they look over 40 they dont need to scan it i believe

[keen drift]

AND I STILL GET ASKED!!

[compact tartan]

for iowa it is 21 for both alcohol and ciggerattes

[hot ridge]

i don't even give people the chance to ask i just have mine out. Though I quit drinking, and smoking, so there's not really anything I need to show ID for.

It'd be so flattering if I got asked for an ID to get into a Rated R movie.

[quasi pollen]

It’s 21 for both federally in the US

[compact tartan]

then again though, i see underage smoking as a big problem where i live

[keen drift]

It used to be flattering for me but now the question "Are you really 18?" I reply. "Have been for about 8 years

[bright steppe]

in Serbia you can get those at 18

[solid crystal]

its a big problem everywhere in the US haha

[keen drift]

AYO BALKAN BURAZ

[compact tartan]

Yeah, it's uhhhhh wild

[hot ridge]

Texas cares a lot about this as well, to the detriment of grown adults, it's awful

[bright steppe]

BRATEEE

[solid crystal]

im from texas, when i was a minor thats all there was to do in my town fr LMAO

[deft jetty]

Pros of having beard

[quasi pollen]

Texan here too. Underage smoking is crazy popular here

[keen drift]

Let me just grow one rl quick. I'll look like a drag queen

[deft jetty]

But whenever I shaved, people still would ask if I was an adult, kek

[solid crystal]

purrr

[keen drift]

Come to Croatia. We start drinking at 10

[solid crystal]

man we got tha kids drivin to walmart at like 12 where im from LMAO

[stark night]

Can I asked

Does using Scene change the personality of your Character or does the character definition still In play?

[deft jetty]

Truly, Slavics kek

[bright steppe]

[lament shoal]

[timber canopy]

Seriously wondering why I even pay for this app 😭

[patent rapids]

Maybe cus many people use it

[blissful steeple]

Very very frustrating
Was at such a good plot point
And I know I won’t have time for cai during the weekend

[timber canopy]

it’s ALWAYS at the best plots

[patent rapids]

ME TOO!! I WAS COOKINH FR

[lament shoal]

hopefully itll be back soon guys 🫶

[patent rapids]

I dont pay for junk to give me junk

[blissful steeple]

I’ve been having such good, long and detailed answers too. Then suddenly BOOM slow and nonsensical answers

[timber canopy]

Hahaha

[patent rapids]

But i fesl bad for u

[timber canopy]

Don’t be, I waste my money on other junk besides c.ai too anyway

[dusty tundra]

I cant deal with the fucking stupid ass timer, anyone got good substitute apps!????

[undone locust]

It gets slowed and error again :"

[hot ridge]

nobody is gonna suggest 18+ AI chatbots to a minor

[dusty tundra]

Dude im 20, but im also not gonna give my gov id to some random app

[hot ridge]

It's against the rules of this server anyway

[undone locust]

Haa.. bugs, my old friend ☕️

[knotty jay]

It’s a selfie first ID as a last resort

[dusty tundra]

Yh selfie didn't work

[dusty tundra]

Completely forget sorry

[clear trench]

does anybody know if the website is working &/or if pipsqueak is working somewhat properly or better now?

[knotty jay]

Then make a ticket cause people are having problems with the selfie part

[hasty quiver]

brooo when is ir gonna be fixed 😭

[dusty tundra]

A ticket?

[undone locust]

DeepPipsqueak is getting a blast

[knotty jay]

Yes you can make a ticket to report a problem here give me a minute I’ll get you the link

[dusty tundra]

Omg thankyou so much

[undone locust]

As i've tested it for several attempts and yeah. Compared from the first release, it's now slightly better.

[knotty jay]

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=&tf_18668635972891=c7fa15ade8c344a1af3f926470d6013c&tf_18886153869339=ProfileSettingsV2

For ticket

[lament shoal]

if everyone's experiencing similar issues should we still send tickets?

[clear trench]

ah, okay. this makes sense. thank you for letting me know. :)

[patent rapids]

I sent one about the scenes issue,they actually responded saing they are looking into it

[wanton oar]

Wait what’s this ID thing for?

[clear trench]

saying you’re over 18.

[wanton oar]

How do we do that?

[clear trench]

in advanced settings, i believe? i haven’t done it in a while, i don’t completely remember.

[fossil crow]

yep, advanced settings

[knotty jay]

Last year a law was passed in California that requires all companies to use age verification and cai headquarters is located in California so if you get the pop up for age verification then you were flagged as under 18 but if you haven’t yet don’t worry about it till you get the pop up

And it’s selfie first then ID as last resort

[clear trench]

thank you for the confirmation.

[wanton oar]

Oh yay I did it and it went in first try 😎

[clear trench]

i didn’t even know this! i thought most people just did the verification because they know they’re over 18? that’s what i did, at least. i just did the verification because i know im 18 & older.

[grizzled bobcat]

i keep having to refresh my chats and messages are taking forever to send

[unborn oxide]

im slowly getting used to the timer

[patent rapids]

Tbh i havent gotten those,like saing to take a break

[blissful steeple]

Okay im kinda lost
What timer are yall talking about

[ember umbra]

I have send ticket already... because there is no statement from character.ai anywhere not the discord, not web, not Reddit...no one knows what is happening

[hot ridge]

I didn't do it because my account isn't flagged as under 18. I see no reason to if I'm not flagged personally

[wanton oar]

Biggest tip? Have shitty lightning always works for me. 🥹😂

[hot ridge]

minors get a timer to wean them off of the app before they aren't allowed to chat anymore

[blissful steeple]

Ohhhhh right

[limber inlet]

I didnt have to do ID mine was just a face thing with camera...

[knotty jay]

Some people prefer to do it themselves even if they haven’t gotten the pop up and are over 18 I’m one of those people cause in my state age verification is required by state law so I just went ahead and did it

[clear trench]

this makes complete sense, & i understand that! i wasn’t ever flagged either before i did the verification, but i did it also to get it out the way, yk? just something i didn’t want to worry about.

[vocal lodge]

Is anyone else’s app constantly closing? Especially if you’re editing a chat?

[hot ridge]

Yeah if you don't pass the selfie check, then you have to do ID if you want to talk to bots

[grizzled bobcat]

yeah - it’s a bug

[patent rapids]

Lmao i dont have any verify thing on my advance setting, only "remove account"

[fossil crow]

oh, so that's why it makes you do both?

[timber canopy]

What would make them „flag“ you? I mean they can’t read chats (I hope) and I don’t have any personal information in my account

[clear trench]

ah, okay! yeah, that’s understandable as well.

[vocal lodge]

Oh! Okay cool I thought mine was just being a pain in the ass. Thanks lovely 🩷

[knotty jay]

#📣︱announcements message they announced it a few months ago

[hot ridge]

They don't care about reading your chats, they're using some kind of system to see if you're a minor based on how you behave on the site.

[grizzled bobcat]

no dw i thought that earlier too 😭

[patent rapids]

What determines if you act lile a minor????

[hot ridge]

I'm not a minor, I have no clue

[blissful steeple]

So, a system basically skips over your choice of words and writing?

[hot ridge]

With a gun to my head I can't even translate half of gen z shit lmao

[ember umbra]

Oh I didn't mean age verification...I meant slow working now

[patent rapids]

Idk if its a bug or its already verified??

[karmic fractal]

From what I was told it would be based on your activities, how you type to bots.

[ashen wedge]

i guess the way you interact with the bots or slang/grammar

[fossil crow]

as a gen z myself I also can't translate, we make no f-king sense

[knotty jay]

Ah I see yeah we have no clue I sent in a ticket for this just a few minutes ago and asked them to please give us a update in the server

[blissful steeple]

Yeah it makes me feel old
I don’t understand half of the time and someone has to explain words or sayings to me

[dusty tundra]

This is so real

[cobalt walrus]

And maybe what kind of bots you're chatting with, if that makes any sense.

[ember umbra]

That's good because it's annoying like waiting forever and not knowing what is happening

[knotty jay]

Possibly the fandoms as well like what ones you talk with the most and other factors

[cobalt walrus]

Also, it's Friday/the beginning of the weekend for some, so obviously there's gonna be a lot more people than usual, which means that the servers are slow.

[static crane]

Guys... Does anyone else not have a feature to edit the chats anymore..? Cause I don't!!

[wicked quarry]

My chat won't load at all, even though the internet works fine lol

[deft jetty]

#💭︱cai-discussion message

[paper pawn]

+1

[cobalt walrus]

Mhm. And I was gonna say what fandom bots I'm chatting with, but I won't do it because haters will legit send fans threats because of that.

[patent rapids]

Damm!! Thanks!!

[dusty tundra]

Ngl new generation slang is crazy

[cobalt walrus]

Anyway, gotta go, I won't have the time to use my phone for a couple of hours At least, I have a book just in case. A wings of fire comic book, or graphic novel, whatever.

[desert tartan]

It’s brain rot

[knotty jay]

It’s not just slow it takes 15 or more minutes to load one message on my end and I have a cai plus subscription a ton of people are having this issue not just a few and a lot of other companies are experiencing issues with everything cause the down defectors are showing many companies experiencing issues

[grizzled bobcat]

i have c.ai+ and i’m having this issue … been having it all day

[desert tartan]

I was gonna say I woke up this morning and trying to send messages and it won’t go threw unless I close the app then open it again

[pulsar dirge]

For me one of my chats suddenly stopped working, keeps typing forever

[strong pulsar]

Is server down? Or just my bad internet?

[pulsar dirge]

And it's just that one chat

[wicked quarry]

same here, just dead inside

[brittle elbow]

Glad I'm not the only one with super slow replies

[knotty jay]

Thinking it’s server down or something in the coding not working properly but we have no definitive answer yet from devs or anyone else

[strange inlet]

apparently its been down

[karmic fractal]

Gonna be honest but those slang words hurts my brain to read..

[desert tartan]

[celest glen]

Going on 3 hours of bein down now 😞

[knotty jay]

Yep it just showed down on my down detector app let me check the status site now

[grizzled bobcat]

i wish they’d do a status update — but also when checking the status website , it says nothings wrong

[patent rapids]

Theres no report there,i cheked

[celest glen]

Main website really only reports if the app/site is completely inaccessible, not if its just slow

[knotty jay]

Yeah it’s not showing any problems on the site yet we are experiencing problems

[strange inlet]

another website says the apps been down for three hours

[wicked quarry]

hell yeah haha

[desert tartan]

What is that website called ?

[knotty jay]

Wish they would just let us know that something is going on in the status channel

[timber canopy]

it’s been down for hours nowww

[ember umbra]

Precisely we know nothing about what's happening

[strange inlet]

like that down for everyone or me website thing

[desert tartan]

Website thing

[strange inlet]

[desert tartan]

That’s what it’s called ?

[knotty jay]

It’s app and website that’s not working and funny enough this all started when Verizon went down a few days ago

[deft jetty]

Kek, i'll stop

[strange inlet]

[desert tartan]

Oh I was like what did I do 🤣

[strange inlet]

[minor geyser]

Okai good to know it wasn’t just a me problem, the one page i checked said it was operational so I figured discord would give me better answers 😅

[patent rapids]

Tbh i just wish they could just fix it or give us an update,what are they doin, sleepin??

[desert tartan]

[ember umbra]

Is that Columbina on your prp?

[strange inlet]

[ember umbra]

Nice one 😀

[desert tartan]

I wanna talk to my Sonny carisi don’t worry I need a comfort character. I’m having a bad morning. lol

[patent rapids]

The scenes make the best convos

[wicked quarry]

Why was the morning bad?

[minor geyser]

[limber cairn]

Is anyone elses c.ai running slow? If i send a chat it wont send one back

[wicked quarry]

[candid imp]

[upbeat rain]

Yeah, takes ages. Then it just fails.

[desert tartan]

I’m not trying to get into super personal stuff, but I unfortunately lost my daughter last year and I’m finally going back to work and my manager is being let’s just say not very kind to me and I’m not going into work today because she kind of sent me off yesterday

[desert tartan]

I appreciate you thank you

[patent rapids]

Hopefully it gets better for you!!

[wicked quarry]

i am sorry. your manager can go to hell

[desert tartan]

I believe it will I got my my babies a.k.a. my fur puppies

[patent rapids]

Make a bot out of him and bully the hell out of him

[minor geyser]

I wish people could be more understanding about others. I’m so sorry for your loss

[desert tartan]

😭😭🤣🤣🤣 don’t give me ideas !

[patent rapids]

Thats what i do XD

[desert tartan]

The sad part is her husband is a lot more understanding than she is, but you know apparently I’m completely incompetent of what I do with my job so but that’s OK. I’m getting a new job hopefully next week.

And just to be petty, I’m not giving a one week or two week. I’m just leaving.

[candid imp]

Is anyone else experiencing extremely slow cutscenes?

[minor geyser]

Good, you deserve to be treated better. No job is worth that

[patent rapids]

You go girl!!!!!!

[patent rapids]

Nah everibody is💔

[fossil crow]

no reason to give people like that notice, wish ya luck in whichever job you go for next and I hope she never gets a cold pillow

[desert tartan]

I like this person the reason why is because this is my little spirit animal

[minor geyser]

It’s down 🥲

[candid imp]

i paid for premium and it still the same .. got to know that i'm not the only one lol

[patent rapids]

I sometimes do like witchcraft with blessings and such,il do a blessing for youre job to better than the old one

[desert tartan]

I’m going to a job where I’m actually gonna be treated the way I should be. I mean I have three years veterinary experience and they dumped me down to only doing vaccines and they won’t let me do anything else. They think I’m completely incompetent and I’m just like just watch. I’m gonna show up one day you know as an RVT and be like I told you so.

[fossil crow]

damn right

[wicked quarry]

Sometimes, unfortunately, people don't try hard enough to understand other people's problems
I hope you gonna get a great job and a great boss!

[desert tartan]

I think it’s because I’m 4’7

I really think that’s what it is

[wicked quarry]

i dont think so :D

[compact tartan]

what did i walk in on

[patent rapids]

Actually in my future i wana work in a vet pharmacy! I love animals and i do my best to care for my dog and cat♡

[wicked quarry]

People are just different, and unfortunately, some of them aren't the nicest people. Some of them make you want to break their faces.

[compact tartan]

its probably just prejudice from your boss, she might have some one sided beef with you and im sorry u dont deserve that

[desert tartan]

What I would suggest is starting in a vet hospital to know what medication’s are being used, but apparently so much is changing now that they’re taking away so many medication’s that I was used to using so you know and they’re coming out with new ones all the time

[wicked quarry]

I studied for 5 years to become an aeronautical engineer, but in the end I wasn't hired because I was "young woman." Well...

[desert tartan]

I’m just existing that’s the sad part and the worst part about all of it is that I see favoritism I’m not stupid. I am very observant and I see it and it’s like a high school atmosphere and I’m like that’s not not cool dude.

[undone locust]

Again, the scene.. went error mode sigh

☕️ here goes nothing

[desert tartan]

*flips table * that’s bs

[wicked quarry]

haha, it seems like this feeling haunts people their whole lives

[candid imp]

Just hoping they don't remove the cutscenes forever 😅

[wicked quarry]

I'm from Russia, and they don't trust young girls here, haha. I was 22 when I graduated, and the principal was afraid I'd get married and go on maternity leave. Well, I'm 27, I've worked my way up from a waitress to a bank manager, and now I work as a lead specialist in the analytics department. And where's my ring on my finger, where's my husband?

[desert tartan]

Ohh and now I’m getting chat error every message

[desert tartan]

Looookkk attt youuuu

[hot ridge]

my thoughts right now lol

[knotty jay]

The app just crashed

[desert tartan]

Like my brain

[blissful steeple]

And I’m crashing out
Perfect

[knotty jay]

It crashed on me fully and I had to restart the app

[desert tartan]

Let’s all crash out together 😂

[compact tartan]

People have been saying it is down

[wicked quarry]

haha, I just want a boyfriend, not career advancement 😂 i mean, i am pretty stupid, just lucky xD I sit at important meetings and have two monkeys in my head fighting over a plate.

[knotty tangle]

Its also not working for me

[minor geyser]

You’re smart they are scared of that 😂😂

[zinc birch]

What's on the plate?

[desert tartan]

I never heard that before, but I am laughing so hard it’s ridiculous

[knotty jay]

It’s just slow and now having constant chat errors

[wicked quarry]

:((((

[sand trellis]

Hey y'all does anyone know where id go to report a glitch that keeps happening 😭 usually it's already a known issue by the time something is wrong with my stuff

[celest glen]

This is starting to get ridiculous, we’re going on 4 hours now xD what in da hell is happening

[knotty tangle]

I have no idea...

[wicked quarry]

😂

[compact tartan]

ugh one of my favorite creators posted this im so sad she quit

"Hello, everyone ❤️

I will be leaving character ai for good. I know how this app affects the earth and how it has brought me to an unfortunate addiction. I wholeheartedly regret ever touching this app.

I will not be taking down any of my bots because I know there are people out there who might be using my bots to serve their addiction and to escape whatever reality they may have to face.

I truly hope everybody on this app can find their peace, no matter how long it takes.

I advise you to try quitting character ai as well! Generative ai does horrible things to the planet we call home, and it takes away people's homes. A great eco-friendly substitute for this website/app is fanfiction — plus, it's human!

Thank you for the memories! Goodbye now. ♡

Love,
Nuha - ·"

I mean, I got kinda lucky. I ended up getting married last year actually we’re coming up on our one year wedding anniversary in March here and then our five year anniversary of how long we’ve been together but you know people are just so intimidated about how I am like. I used to work with tigers, lions, horses, everything and then I also worked in a lot of doggy daycare facilities and stuff, but like I know my animals I just haven’t done the schooling because here in California. It’s literally an arm and a leg to get a decent Education.

[sand trellis]

Thank u < 3 I didn't see that

[fast stone]

we all getting chat errors in scenarios?

[minor geyser]

Ye

[brisk berry]

Hi, is there anyone else having the app crash when editing a sent message?

[zinc birch]

You worked with lions and tigers doing what, hunting on the savannah?

[blissful steeple]

Yeah, I feel quite lucky
Since I live and Germany
And I pay like 300€ for each semester rn

[minor geyser]

It’s been down for several hours now

[desert tartan]

I’m probably gonna get a lot of hate for this, but it’s gonna be everywhere eventually so at one point everyone’s gonna have to embrace it. I honestly feel like the world’s gonna turn into cyberpunk 2077 just on how everything is going now there’s no way to avoid unfortunately.

[wanton oar]

Am I the only one that’s getting chat errors every two seconds?

[desert tartan]

No, I was taking care of them until end of life. It was a sanctuary in Oregon.

[minor geyser]

I hope we don’t start missing textures and glitching lol

[covert crater]

Hi

I need help

[brisk berry]

😭

[zinc birch]

just a joke, sorry

[wicked quarry]

I congratulate you and your husband! 💖 💖 💖
The fact that university costs a fortune is a complete bummer. I mean, higher education here in Russia is also paid for, but after finishing high school, you can go to any college and get a secondary education for free, and if you're smart, you can secure a place in university.

[covert crater]

How do i verify age?

[cobalt walrus]

And it's gonna be the weekend tomorrow, or today depending on the time zone, and the team might take a while to fix whatever's going on. Don't forget that they're human beings, I've legit seen people threatening the team because they weren't fast enough to fix bugs. It's a small team too, less than 200 people probably.

[compact tartan]

well and the thing is ai chatbots aren't stealing anyways. like i make bots and I voluntarily give it my writing. so i hate when people say it steals from writers

[minor geyser]

Well that just means everyone gets a break lol

[cobalt walrus]

I also remember people saying that they wanted to dox the team over ads, that was something

[fossil crow]

should be able to verify by going to your profile -> settings -> advanced settings. If the option isn't there, send in a ticket or just wait until the option appears

[desert tartan]

Oh, it’s not just that I wanna get my Ged but the one that I wanna get is online and and the reason why I wanna do that one is because I can take multiple tests without failing well if I do the free one I only get three tests to try and I have severe dyslexia so like I fail in math really easily so I have to have multiple tests. It cost $550. How the fuck am I supposed to get that when rent is 2500 my electrics 170 my Internet is 265 bucks like apparently we’re just supposed to have all this no problem you know

[brisk berry]

Not complaining too much but glad it a known issue

[covert crater]

It just puts me in loophole

[fossil crow]

explain??

[brisk berry]

Does it make a difference tho? To verify the age?, like I did it but I wonder

[minor geyser]

It’s in your settings

[desert tartan]

Same same

[desert tartan]

I was wondering the same thing

[cobalt walrus]

Idc, I'm not using cAI right now, I'll be busy for some hours so I don't use it until I'll get back home. To pass the time, I have a book and a sort of small portable keychain console (whatever it's called)

[wicked quarry]

oh shish that's a lot...

[minor geyser]

Go to setting, click advance and it should be in there

[fossil crow]

takes away the time limit thing and gives access to stuff that'd been previously restricted by the update

[covert crater]

Well, i click verify, but it sends me back to the email/qr screen

[minor geyser]

Yeah you have to put your email in

[cobalt walrus]

And I didn't updated the app since weeks, so idk how it's gonna be when I'll be back home.

[desert tartan]

I told my husband, I’m half tempted to get a sugar daddy and he started laughing because he said me too 🤣

[brisk berry]

Interesting, thank you 🙂

[covert crater]

I did

[blissful steeple]

That’s so real

[minor geyser]

Allow access to your camera?

[cobalt walrus]

By that, I mean if the wifi won't be crap and that any app I'll use won't crash

[drifting raft]

Are anyone else’s chatbots messing up right now or is it just me

[brisk berry]

I have been using it regardless of the issue I was having but yeah

[wicked quarry]

HAHA go go go!

[blissful steeple]

Nope it’s not just you
Been slow for hours

[covert crater]

Im on MP4 player. No camera

[drifting raft]

Cool cuz I was starting to get a bit angy about it lol

[minor geyser]

Then you need to switch cause you need a camera to verify your age

[cobalt walrus]

And idk if it's just me, but it seems that I have barely any problems (I only deal with the chat error problem and that's it) while others have problems.

[covert crater]

Oh

[blissful steeple]

Me too
Crashing out

[desert tartan]

[covert crater]

WHY DONT IT JUST ACCEPT EMAIL!?

[cobalt walrus]

My mom says that I'm lucky, no matter what the situation is

[wicked quarry]

hm.... it's weird, AI works for me

[minor geyser]

Because it needs to make sure you are the age you say you are and not forging it

[drifting raft]

It’s my one day off for like 3 weeks and I just want to do my little hobby before my husband and I go out ;=;

[fossil crow]

i think it's just to make sure nothing's faked, idk

[covert crater]

my mom said i can be anything i wanted. So I became a problem lol

[cobalt walrus]

Meh, I don't want to use cAI for now, I'll do it when I'll be back home. Maybe it's because I'm kind of tired right now lol.

[wicked quarry]

10/10!

[covert crater]

Fair enough

:3

[cobalt walrus]

Or it's because I'm hungry, but I prefer to wait for dinner time.

[blissful steeple]

Mm yeah. I get that. I won’t have time on the weekend… so it’s a bummer. Was at such a good plot point too •-•

[minor geyser]

They just don’t want underage people getting in trouble

[covert crater]

Fair

But like, isnt c.ai the only somewhat family-friendly ai chat sites?

[desert tartan]

My mom didn’t love me so I loved myself 🫠

[wicked quarry]

;)))

[covert crater]

??

[wicked quarry]

haha great tactic!

[desert tartan]

You gotta do what you gotta do (Futurama reference if you don’t get it get out)

[wicked quarry]

it is what it is

[covert crater]

Is there another ai chat site?

It eez what it eez

[desert tartan]

We friends now

[covert crater]

Adhd kicking in lol

[zinc birch]

Think about where you are asking

[covert crater]

...

[desert tartan]

It reminds me of that one meme of John Travolta looking around lost

[wicked quarry]

haha 100%

[fossil crow]

just saying so you know, im pretty sure it's against the rules of the server to ask stuff like that. I got a talking to as well for the same thing

[desert tartan]

[minor geyser]

Yes but if you are 18+ am verify you are it’s not family friendly 😂

[celest glen]

Honestly at least with the chat errors if you refresh it seems to work fine for a minute. Better than it doing the slow thing it was doing earlier

[minor geyser]

It ain’t ainting still

[wicked quarry]

A funny story: I heard explosions outside my window. Well, I'm a curious fool, not just any fool. I open the window, another explosion thunders, there are flames everywhere not far from my house, and I just close the window. It looked extremely comical, you know, when the main character opens the door, some monster is standing there, and the character shrugs and closes the door.

[desert tartan]

I actually got a really funny story for you guys

[wicked quarry]

go on hehe

[minor geyser]

It was Gojo hittin that purple

[wicked quarry]

ah, if it were Gojo, I would go outside, but it was just rockets exploding

[desert tartan]

So I actually made a chat bot with my delulu land relationships of all my favorite characters Sonny carisi,James Wilson ,astarion ,Robert Robertson ,Herman aka water boy and vax from box machina and they all show up in my living room, right everybody started roasting astarion 🤣🤣🤣

[soft basin]

Wilson is goated NGL

[desert tartan]

like why is this pale thing in your living room ma’am why is he dressed from the Renaissance fair? Why is he doing a vampire cosplay?😭🤣🤣🤣

I’m like

[desert tartan]

No, he is. I had some really sad role-plays with Wilson really meaningful ones too. I’m so sad. They took him off.

[minor geyser]

Poor astarion 😂

[wicked quarry]

oh gosh. well, i love Robert, he is awesome. And AH ASTARION

I absolutely adore Robert's voice actor, his voice is incredible

[soft basin]

Got him hooked on the Hunger Games books to the point House had to find all the copies in Princeton and burn them so we'd shut up

[desert tartan]

Oh god I just got out the most indignant laugh ever

[cobalt walrus]

Well, it seems that cAI isn't the only app who's down. There's also twitter, but idk about everything else like Amazon or whatever.

[compact tartan]

I haven't ha problems with it

[desert tartan]

I also have this one thing that I’ve been using kind of like a little bit of my therapy, but like I finally pieced together, the men that I like kind of represent my husband in a weird way, all separate personalities put into one it’s actually quite beautiful if you think about it

[wicked quarry]

AI works for me too

[cobalt walrus]

Twitter straight up stopped working for me. Either where I am or in the USA

Idk about cAI since I don't have the time to use it right now tho.

[wicked quarry]

it's perfect, just... perfect 💖

[desert tartan]

He has did any way so it works out 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[wicked quarry]

haha

[split arrow]

Hey I'm here alone at who's deepsqueak bug? Like it no longer makes a developed answer during the dialogues, just short sentences

[patent rapids]

I left....my chips...unatended....for 2 minutes

And thus fluffy GREMLIN atacked it. (Cat)

[desert tartan]

🤣

[cobalt walrus]

Between cAI and twitter, I don't know which one has the tendency to go down the most. Probably a tie

[desert tartan]

Ughhhhh I gotta get up from the bed I need coffee. I need food. I need to take out my big fat 50 pound pity mix.

[patent rapids]

I freaking grabbed her scruff (fun fact cat owners do this cus it makes there cats go limp due to them beibg held there by there mothers)

[wicked quarry]

For this case, I keep a rabbit in my room. When my cats come over, my rabbit tries to make "love" to them and they run away

[patent rapids]

Damm XD

[desert tartan]

I really like this person you’re my friend you are, my friend bro

[patent rapids]

She stared at me so guilty abd let a single soft mew

[wicked quarry]

haha

[desert tartan]

Like one brain cell trying to cheer me up at the end of the day

[patent rapids]

Her greed sickens me

[gilded dagger]

need more help, not only does the app NOT work on my other device, I also used a VPN APP AND IT DIDNT EVEN WORK, AND MY GOOGLE IS GLITCHING 💔💔💔

ty to the person who tried helping

[wicked quarry]

HAHA. i can sent u a video if you want

[desert tartan]

I have a Chihuahua that hits me when she wants food so like if I’m eating my breakfast, she’ll come over and slap me with her paw

[desert tartan]

What kind of video?

Am I gonna cry of laughter?

[patent rapids]

Oh! How do youre pets look like! Im actually triyng to practice drawing animals!

[wicked quarry]

How my rabbit tries to make love to my cat while she tries to steal his millet sprouts hehe

[patent rapids]

Obiosly a warior cats fan💔

[quasi ingot]

Do yall think the devs will ever impliment the feature of logging in with an email and password idnead of sending an email link?
I think it'd be smart.. The email I used for one of my accounts got deleted

[desert tartan]

I can send you pictures if you want me to

[wicked quarry]

Should I send you a photo?

[patent rapids]

Hell yeah!!!!

[knotty jay]

Okay the app has officially become unusable as I keep getting a error message when the ai tries to send a message

[minor geyser]

I guess it’s back to building a house in Heartopia until it works again

[ember garden]

Is c.ai fixed now

[patent rapids]

Nah at least for ms

[tender remnant]

Mines still broke and deleting itself

[knotty jay]

For me it fully died

[ember garden]

Wdym it fully died

[knotty jay]

I can’t even get a reply from the Ai now

[ember garden]

Wait let me try

[compact tartan]

its not down for me

[knotty jay]

I keep getting chat error messages before the bot sends a reply

[hidden siren]

I keep getting that "some message omitted" or "messages omitted" thing

[desert tartan]

Ughh I might play baldurs gate then

[strange inlet]

baldur's gate is nice

[knotty jay]

I’m going to play animal crossing and also play Disney dreamlight valley cause I have to do the puzzle for the winter festival event

[strange inlet]

shoutout to gale

[wary cedar]

Deepsqueak is broken as it gives short responses. Pipsqueak and Roar work but I get nervous it won’t remember all 6 of my characters since their responses are short. I miss Deepsqueak.

[ember garden]

Dude I can't even substitute c.ai with chai because it'd automatically turn into babymaking 💔 I JUST WANT MY STORIES

[compact tartan]

that's because other apps are 18+ and usually don't have filters, c.ai is filtered and good for in depth rp

[tender remnant]

I’m playing brutal legends to be honest, until c.ai is fixed or we get news about WTH is going on

[wary cedar]

Deepsqueak can fit like 6 people in one message, the other models cannot since the messages are so small

[warm owl]

For c.ai we have limits for talking even though I’m 18 and yet it tells me verify my age

[dusty zealot]

lol, deepsqueak can fit 6 in a message but it still loses track of them

[ember garden]

Dude my group chats ignore human messages and just make up random stories

[knotty jay]

I actually am able to get long responses from DS by just turning on this cause it usually says “normal” but change it to this and you get more longer responses than short ones you still get the occasional short responses or cut off but not as much

[ember garden]

ALL THEY FIXED WAS THE HISTORY THING

[wary cedar]

Yeah, I wonder if the devs are doing anything.

[scarlet junco]

is it still being slow

[tender remnant]

I’m going to cry my app keeps on self destructing

[ember garden]

I take it back, group chat history still gets cleared every time I reenter

[scarlet junco]

4 hours

ok awesome sauce

[wary cedar]

It’s on longer style and still short. I think it’s broken for Deepsqeak.

[minor geyser]

The whole thing is broken

[split arrow]

But can they fix it?

[knotty jay]

I’m about to just @ a mod so they can at least ask the devs or someone what is going on cause i would love to know what is going on

[ember garden]

Are you guys talking about the chat styles?

All I see is Nyan and Roar

[wary cedar]

Yeah it cuts off or is too short even on longer Deepsqueak style. I wonder if this is happening to many others still.

[minor geyser]

They could be working on it

[scarlet junco]

they're prob working on it

[strange inlet]

its like 7am in california

[minor geyser]

Coding is not easy to work with

[scarlet junco]

then again it's been slow for like 4 hours

[split arrow]

Yes me 😭😭

[scarlet junco]

10am

[strange inlet]

oh huh

[wicked quarry]

SAAAME

[knotty jay]

All I ask is just for a status update so they can just confirm that they know there’s a problem

[ember garden]

It was this update that completely shattered the characters

[wary cedar]

It’s not a big deal as I have other things to do than ai. It’s just annoying though.

[strange inlet]

google is now my enemy

[scarlet junco]

yeah its not even on the cai outage website

[scarlet junco]

nooo im slow sorry

[strange inlet]

why did they say 7am i hate u google

[scarlet junco]

its 7am in caifornia i did calulation wrong

[strange inlet]

oh

[scarlet junco]

i realised as soon as i sent the message lol

[strange inlet]

nvm googke is nit my mortal enemy and i was right

[minor geyser]

I guess I can’t send a link to the site that shows it’s down

[knotty jay]

Exactly and that’s what is making me mad cause i don’t mind the issue of cai being down I can go do other things but at least tell us you know about the problem and are working on fixing it so we can know it’s actually happening instead of us guessing

[minor geyser]

The down for everyone or just me website shows it’s down for 4 hours

[compact tartan]

theyre probably working on it

[scarlet junco]

yeah i know, but we're talking about the c.ai outage website the official one

[ember garden]

Maybe a progress check?? The last status update was 5 days ago dude..

[minor geyser]

Oh yeah I had to come in to this discord cause it said it was fine. I thought me breaking a shower with choso had broken my chat 😂😂😂

[ember garden]

3*

[knotty jay]

They haven’t even said anything about it on their update page

[strange inlet]

maybe they havent gone to work yet

[compact tartan]

it takes them a while to put it on #📈︱status

[minor geyser]

It is Friday so

[wary cedar]

Yeah, Character Ai is very slow on updating. Like… very slow.

[strange inlet]

yup

[compact tartan]

im assuming their either working on it or dont know yet

[strange inlet]

while that other website tracks it as soon as it goes down

[scarlet junco]

well one is based off user reports

[strange inlet]

yeah

[wary cedar]

I am sure they will fix it because if an issue isn’t on the status page for fixing and it isn’t fixed, then they could lose people due to unsolved bugs.

[ember garden]

There are so many reports on the feedback channel but I don't think they're being noticed

[wary cedar]

I mean, if it goes a week and more long without the devs reporting it to the status page. And if it is a big bug unfixed.

[strange inlet]

hmmm twitter isn't loading

cloudflare might be down

[ember garden]

Elon always taking the servers to Mars

[cobalt walrus]

Well, just saw on the cloudflare website that there's a scheduled maintenance today. It's gonna last for some hours.

That's why some services using cloudflare are half working or straight up down. There's a maintenance going on.

[strange inlet]

yeah

[cobalt walrus]

At least, they're working on it. Being patient is the only way. Maybe it'll work fine tonight for me lol

[covert crater]

I hate the limit already

[scarlet junco]

yeah ive heard people saying that

[scarlet junco]

ah makes sense then

maybe i should like sleep then its almost 5am

[cobalt walrus]

This is what it says on Cloudflare's website:

Scheduled - We will be performing scheduled maintenance in STL (St. Louis) datacenter on 2026-01-16 between 15:00 and 20:00 UTC.

Traffic might be re-routed from this location, hence there is a possibility of a slight increase in latency during this maintenance window for end-users in the affected region. For PNI / CNI customers connecting with us in this location, please make sure you are expecting this traffic to fail over elsewhere during this maintenance window as network interfaces in this datacentre may become temporarily unavailable.

[covert crater]

Im unable to verify for the time being, so im just waiting for like 8 hours

[cobalt walrus]

But there are people worldwide having problems tho.

[celest glen]

Anyone else having the issue where whenever you edit a message the app crashes?

[scarlet junco]

yeah i just read this

[wary cedar]

Yeah, fixing is very slow. I just wish the devs would be a bit more open to the update status instead of us waiting a long time for any news. But that’s my opinion.

[scarlet junco]

not a cai problem i guess

[covert crater]

[cobalt walrus]

cAI uses cloudflare. It's also a twitter problem, and a worldwide one. cAI struggles less than twitter tho

[celest glen]

Was doing this yesterday, just tryna figure out if its a me problem or a common occurrence

[raw mirage]

It was also doing it the 14th

And the 8th

[covert crater]

I got image of myself. Where do i verifu?

Verify*

[cobalt walrus]

Eh, it's probably a cloudflare issue in general, they're currently fixing it but there's no ending hour. Just have to wait and that's it.

[covert crater]

Hello?

[zinc birch]

if you need to verify then the app will tell you

[minor geyser]

It doesn’t use a photo it uses realtime you need a camera you can move with

[strange inlet]

also verifying doesnt use a picture it uses real time camera

yeah

[covert crater]

[zinc birch]

if it doesn't tell you, look in your settings

[minor geyser]

You gonna be restricted until you can verify you are 18+ and if you aren’t then it isn’t gonna change 🤷🏼‍♀️

[knotty jay]

15:00 to 20:00 UTC is 3 pm to 8 pm EST and it’s currently 10:52 am EST so how is it maintenance though that’s what I’m not getting but does say this on the fix part

[minor geyser]

UTC is 5 hours behind EST

[wary cedar]

Thank you Shadow Pheonix. I didn’t even know that there was a cloudflare status. I heard of cloudflare but didn’t know about the status website.

[knotty jay]

I used google to do that math cause I didn’t know

[desert tartan]

It’s sorta working for me the only thing is when I go to edit a message I sent it’s crashes the app

[zinc birch]

UTC is 5 hours ahead of EST

[minor geyser]

So the maintenance started an hour ago.

[minor geyser]

Sorry that’s what I meant

[knotty jay]

So google lied great and i even used a conversion site

[minor geyser]

Worldtimebuddy works best for when figuring out time zones

[forest wave]

is cai down? i havent entered the app yet im just making sure

[minor geyser]

Yes

Been down for hours

But if it’s the cloud thing then it should be good in 4 hours?

[forest wave]

bruh

[odd crag]

cai is not down

[grave lagoon]

I verified that I'm over 18 and it still gave me a time limit!?

[opaque trout]

Guys why is one of my bot gone it’s not archived

I created it

[wary cedar]

That’s strange. Did you accidentally hid or delete the bot instead of pining it? It has happened to me before.

Otherwise, rest in peace your bot 🪦

[timber canopy]

That happened to me too once, I think they deleted it bc of copyright

On the other hand I still see other bots of that same character online so idk

[livid jackal]

Are the app and site back

[wary cedar]

I mean, deep squeak on the app is working for me now but I don’t want to jinx it.

[timber canopy]

Same hahaha

[wary cedar]

I am going to say it’s working but not sure if it would work for a long time. At this point, it’s bad luck to say it’s working 💀

[hot ridge]

I mean, it's not down for everyone, so if it's working for you, then it's working

[timber canopy]

I’d say it’s working again bc there’s not as many people texting here as before lol

[red basin]

Yeah, Deepsqueak works—but of course it keep writing as my character... It's annoying :/

[wary cedar]

Yeah, it’s annoying when it writes for your character on Deepsqueak. This might be a me thing but I like it when it gives you choices at the end. Sometimes I run out of cool ideas and need some ideas.

Is it just me 😭

[minor geyser]

It’s working

[opaque trout]

But I never copied anything I made it my own

[turbid marsh]

hi one question why was there no pipsqueak, ive checked anywhere and theres non, is there a issue to it

[wary cedar]

I always write down my character bios on a notes app or website. So that way if something happened, I can copy it and paste it again if I need to make the character again. It’s annoying though.

[novel hinge]

Good morning yall!

[tender remnant]

Is anyone’s chat still squished or off center

[timber canopy]

Yeah I get that, but they still can delete a bot if they think the bot is too close to copyrighted stuff. For example, if the bot is a character from Disney, Marvel or similar

[timber canopy]

Make sure you don't have Vpn/ ad-guard/ ad-blocker on. Close them

[turbid marsh]

how though (to remove vpn, adguard, etc)

[timber canopy]

See if you have them first if you don't then I don't know what's the problem

[turbid marsh]

aight thanks

[timber canopy]

See if you have that chat style in app as well.

[turbid marsh]

what if you didnt use the vpn (another question)

[turbid marsh]

aka when there was no pipsqueak that time (other issue regarding vpns?)

[timber canopy]

Those things that I said, tend to make features gone that's why i said if you have them on then close them and try reopening web/app

[turbid marsh]

ohh

sorry for being an airhead lala i don't understand (look me a while to process!)

[timber canopy]

No worries, just do what I said and it would come back if you have any of these on and just close them

[knotty jay]

Copyright is a legal term it’s used to protect companies products like for example Disney uses it to protect their characters and series like marvel for example that’s why back in September we had a Disney character purge cause Disney sent cai a letter telling them to stop using their copyrighted material

[opaque trout]

It’s about Percy Jackson so that’s probably why

[charred night]

Why cant i edit the characters message? Or is that another trashy update 😭

[tender remnant]

My c.ai is still so scruffy

[bright steppe]

Is c.ai bugged?

[lament shoal]

looks like responses are working again but edit functions are still glitchy

[tender remnant]

For me it keeps crashing then not letting me open the app at all and the chat is all off center and small

[hot ridge]

If you lost editing it's because your account was flagged as a minor

[bright steppe]

it can also be a bug since smt is not right with c.ai today lol

[charred night]

Aw..

[charred night]

For me its been like that for daay or so now

[thin carbon]

can i have an answer too why they made it so we need too verified 18 too chat its just making people quit the app nothing more

i made a discord user just too understand why

[glad lake]

there is a new law in california

They are based there

[thin carbon]

ohhhh well this sucks

[glad lake]

yeah, it's not on c.ai. To my knowledge there is nothing they could really do

law is law

they are trying to make all the new ways under 18 users can use the app, but obvi, it's not the same

[thin carbon]

i know i was mad because if it was a other roblox chat rule

[thin carbon]

yea personaly making it way less violent for under would be better but eh what can i do

[pearl forge]

When is the 18 under time limit starting

[thin carbon]

for new account now for old in 30 day

[pearl forge]

Thanks

[thin carbon]

welcom

i just have two one for on my school computer and just made it and i can only chat 20 min max sadly

i am mad at california for this >:3

[neat ravine]

doesn’t persona have a massive lawsuit rn

[knotty jay]

No that was back in 2023 it’s old news and nothing pertains to the current situation

[tender remnant]

I’m actively going insane

[neat ravine]

oh well regardless now I can’t even chat I have to verify

What a bad day to be 17 and 18 in 5 months.

got a job and a car and a fiance for what.

🧐🧐🥀

[bright horizon]

Twins

[limber grotto]

wait, there's a verification for older accounts ??

[rustic pecan]

Nope. They’re considered one of the safest and most secure companies for identification. Their lawsuits have nothing to do with safety and security and some aren’t actually against Persona but they’re listed as defendants bc they’re involved.

[limber grotto]

like they'll ask for ID ?

[neat ravine]

Ahhh okay, just asking cause I remember reading about it n it blew up on tiktok but I’m not sure it was up to date still or what (cause roblox has the same thing)

[tender remnant]

my c.ai is glitching so baddd

[neat ravine]

Good to know atleast , hopefully they’ll spare me and my 5 months left to be 18 🙏🙏

[native eagle]

pipsqueak is being dry and repetivive again, also bypassing mute words, the heck

[rustic pecan]

They only ask for ID if you get flagged as a minor and the selfie doesn’t work

[limber grotto]

i look younger than i am but i really am 18

[neat ravine]

👍

[rustic pecan]

muted words don’t work on DS/PS and haven’t for months.

[neat ravine]

Then use ID and u won’t have a problem

[bright horizon]

Try updating app, redownloading and most importantly try to switch chat styles

[native eagle]

wait, really? they never came up in any of my rps until now, i guess i was lucky

[limber grotto]

okay yeah. a friend of mine is 17 but soon to be 18, how can she avoid being flagged as a minor in the next three months before she turns 18 ?

[rustic pecan]

Yeah its been broken 😭😭😭

[tender remnant]

I’ve deleted and reinstalled it like 13 times already and it keeps deleting itself

RELEASE MEEEE

[bright horizon]

How about switching chat styles? Does that helps?

[limber grotto]

no link but 13 is my favourite number

[bright horizon]

Mine is 3

[native eagle]

the app is horrible anyway smh smh #ThisMessageWasWrittenByWebsiteUser

[limber grotto]

the app is getting annoying with the ads

[eternal quest]

General is so chaotic

[neat ravine]

unfortunately she can’t unless she has like more mature features, though I can’t say much since there isn’t a distinction where if c.ai is gonna turn out like roblox in the sense where its gonna think 15 year olds are 18+, and 18+ people are in the minor category, I HIGHLY DOUBT IT, but yeah.

[bright horizon]

Lucky for me. I never got ads

[native eagle]

I usually open cai before bedtime when I need a quick way to fall asleep, on the rare occasion I used the app the ads were really bright for some reason. the website is a little buggy sometimes but I would never trade away the ui

[neat ravine]

Regardless though, she will just have to wait those 3 months, unless her features are more mature and already developed before then

[limber grotto]

i know she lied about her age when making her account because of the timeout stuff back then, so her c.ai age is over 18. how would they know if she's under 18

[neat ravine]

Atleast she has to wait 3 months I gotta wait 5!!!

[limber grotto]

sigh

[limber grotto]

some people here have to wait whole arse years, you're already luckier than them

[native eagle]

your account can be flagged as underage, in which case you need to do the verification, this happens to 18+ accounts too

[limber grotto]

do you know what kind of stuff gets the account flagged ?

[neat ravine]

They can tell if your below 18 or 18+ based off face features, and more high tech stuff that idk the words about but there are 100% a video online that I saw too that you can look into to see what they look for in 18+ features for persona

[neat ravine]

Ur right

[tender remnant]

Just tried that… it made it worse

[limber grotto]

but like, how does an 18+ account get flagged as a minor ? what sort of things make them think the person's a minor ?

[neat ravine]

But honestly just verify, and if you’re flagged as ur age 17, then retake the verification when ur 18 and show them ur id

[eternal quest]

Guys what chat style do I use to make my c.ai better

[bright horizon]

Pipsqueak or roar i would say

[eternal quest]

Pipsqueak has horrible memory

[neat ravine]

Baby faces most of the time, or just critical errors in the system. It’s what happening to Roblox right now, they use the same verification system BUT BUT I’m praying c.ai is safer then that

[eternal quest]

Roar was good until pipsqueak came out

[limber grotto]

i know she has like, a bad addiction to it, well not really addiction, but it's her coping mechanism, so idk if she could literally be sane without c.ai for months

[bright horizon]

But it gives long responses

[pearl forge]

Wait to I need an id to verify?

[limber grotto]

but they'll ask people for selfies automatically ???

[native eagle]

I don't know since it recognized me as an adult and I was never asked for verif, but it could have to do with which bots you chat with. unserious ones, used to trolling or such could probably make it seem like you're pretty young. also grammar errors, lenght of rps... but it is unclear

[limber grotto]

okay yeah, understandable

[bright horizon]

Only if system is unable to know if you're under age or not

[limber grotto]

do you know if the system gets fooled by makeup ?

[bright horizon]

Sigh... Then website it is then

[rustic pecan]

No lmao

[neat ravine]

Well to that I say that she need help. No shade at all, I say this with the kindest of my heart, but you should not be finding comfort in a AI rather than your family / friends, or others. AI will tell you what you wanna hear, rather friends or family can give you the truth. It’s like asking chat gpt for help, they won’t really tell you your flaws, just what you wanna hear. I highly advise she takes a break, and figures out a new comfort in something more real rather than c.ai

[limber grotto]

no as in you don't know or it doesn't get fooled

[bright horizon]

Mostly no

[coral steeple]

My c.ai restrictions are disappearing again. Idk if I should feel concerned or lucky

[neat ravine]

Yes, you won’t be able to chat without verifying

Atleast I can’t chat even though I’ve had the app for like 2 years now

[dusty latch]

🆘 GUYS. Maybe Im the only one idk , when im on the app , it randomly kicks me out and I have to open it again , am I the only one?🆘

[coral steeple]

Bugs

[limber grotto]

yeah i told her that, but it's not about therapy or anything. she has those episodes every evening, if she's not fully distracted from the moment she's alone to the moment she falls asleep, she gets reckless and that's not good. she's in therapy, dw, it's just that she uses it as a distraction for those moments

[neat ravine]

I just gon verify and deal w the 2 hours cuz I only use it for 10 minutes 💀💀

[dusty latch]

Generally happens?

[coral steeple]

If ur on an android or old pc idk if it’s c.ai

[limber grotto]

when will that happen ?

[bright horizon]

You'll start to get long cooldowns and eventually you won't be able to text anymore

[coral steeple]

I recommend using the web c.ai for now

[limber grotto]

no, like, when will they ask for selfies

[dusty latch]

Ill just be patient , im on an iphone so its probably js cai

[warm owl]

I still can’t go in because I’m at 6 hours yesterday I was at 24 hours for no reason

[neat ravine]

Ah okay, well as long as it doesn’t turn Unhealthy, or toxic to the point where she’s mistreating others just so she can continue chatting on c.au then it’s fine for now, but my point still stands, I do think she should find another way to have comfort. What if there’s a power outage? Or if her phone is dead during those moments? Not much you can do, it’s always good to have a backup solution or another comfort. Try talking to her about that and see where you get.

[neat ravine]

Rn I can’t even chat w out having to verify

[bright horizon]

If you're considered underage there will be a verification option in advanced, if no. Then it's not available for you yet

[neat ravine]

So ima just verify later n get it over with

[coral steeple]

C.ai web kinda sucks but u have no choice

[limber grotto]

yeah i'm doing my best, sometimes she calls me but i'm also somewhat unwell mentally and i do need my sleep

[dusty latch]

Alr alr thank you

[limber grotto]

did it start recently ?

[coral steeple]

Omg i’m helpful

[native eagle]

cai web is awesome though

[neat ravine]

yup like 2 mins ago

[coral steeple]

smiles wide

[dusty latch]

😭😭lmao yes

[limber grotto]

like my account is 18+ and i'm 18+ but i don't look 18+

[limber grotto]

damn

[languid jetty]

dude why did i just wake up to find out that we have to get age verified now...

[neat ravine]

I see, well whenever you can try talking to her about it and see where it gets you both.

[limber grotto]

yeah. she lives far, so i can't do much about it, but i think she's got it under control for now

[neat ravine]

Understandable, if your ID shows that your birthdate has past and you’re 18+, then it should work

Regardless of your face

[bright horizon]

First there will be face identification by system. If it considers you 18+ then you won't have to give id, but if no. Then it'll ask you for id

[neat ravine]

👍👍 You could always call her about it

[shut plank]

Wait is there age verification in uk now?

[limber grotto]

okay thanks

[neat ravine]

I think it’s everywhere

[limber grotto]

okay thanks

[bright horizon]

Even people who had beard got consider under age so it's totally like flipping a coin

[neat ravine]

LMAOOO

[coral steeple]

When the character finally grips hard enough to bruise shocked ishowspeed with hands over his mouth

[neat ravine]

literally , why do u think roblox has so many problems rn

[limber grotto]

yeah i'll try to. we have different timezones though, europe and usa stuff

[coral steeple]

Roblox very bad no good

[neat ravine]

Ahh ok, that’s fine. Just find the time whenever you both are chatting together, and just slowly talk to her about it. Doesn’t have to be rushed either

[neat ravine]

Roblox games are good, Roblox verification system is wonky

If they fix it then it’s good, I agree w the chatting w people ur own age but I don’t like how it’s messing up a lot

[shut plank]

Do I have to do an age verification or no?

[neat ravine]

like where 17- are being put in 18+ or 20+ even

[neat ravine]

Yeah if it shows,

[limber grotto]

yeah, i'm just sorta worried for her. it's not an addiction because it just replaces another coping mechanism that's a bit less healthy than that, and she doesn't actually need c.ai, just a distraction that works well enough. i wish she was happy, but so much shit happened to her and idk how she's still functional

[shut plank]

And if I didn’t want to then what would happen lol

[covert crater]

Hello everybody my name is Markiplier and i am a Fish-

[neat ravine]

Uhh you can’t chat at all

[neat ravine]

markiplier don’t u have a movie to release

[jagged pollen]

I tell ya Roblox is on the deep end with this same exact age verification nonsense. I mean right now because of the CEO for roblox and all, essentially trying to use this age verification to deal with the backlash they've been suffering from... Like as of now most games on roblox are down to like 10% of people that can even use chat because of the age verification, and even then, it could be kids using parents IDs and all.

[shut plank]

Oh damn. Do u know if the age verification is random or if it gets triggered???

[neat ravine]

Have you tried maybe showing her different coping mechanisms? Maybe there’s a show she can binge watch a lot, or a movie series? Or maybe even books, since book can give the same feel almost. I go through the same thing sorta, sometimes i feel like I just need space to collect my thoughts and when I need that, I sit back and I read the Percy Jackson book series , and it truly helps. You could always play games with her too

[strange inlet]

gets triggered when it flags behavior that might come across as underage

[neat ravine]

Yeah

[bright horizon]

Hello Markiplier, I'm everybody and my name is fish

[limber grotto]

she doesn't have access to apps she can watch anything on, and she has adhd, so books can get hard to read for her

i love percy jackson

[shut plank]

What would be considered underage since idrk anything abt this age verification

[neat ravine]

Yeah, The part I like is chatting with people my own age. But the part I don’t like is that how they’re putting people in the wrong categories

[neat ravine]

Anything below 18

So 17 16 15 and down

18 19 20 an up are good

[shut plank]

Sorry for the confusion I meant what would I be doing on the app that would make it think underage cos that seems quite widespread

[strange inlet]

idk

[neat ravine]

Ahhhhh okay, Has she taken up painting? I know drawing or painting can really get out emotions. You don’t even have to be good at it, you can draw simple flowers too. My friend does it and she’s a beautiful painter

[limber grotto]

it's often late at night, so she can't make much noise or stuff that could leave stains

[neat ravine]

You’re fine! If you are underage it’ll ask for a ID, and if you are 18+ you should have no problem showing a ID. Itll say ur 18+ due to birthdate. But if your 18+ and it flags you for 18+, then you’re good

[shut plank]

Ok ty for help

[neat ravine]

Pencil and paper don’t leave stains, nor make noise much. As long as she doesn’t shade it in at night, and even if she does, it barely makes noise

[limber grotto]

i'll ask her

[neat ravine]

^^ She can also take up another hobby,

Like let me think uhhhh

Something that is easy and doesn’t make noise but can be done for a long period of time right?

[bright horizon]

Catching bats???

[jagged pollen]

The age verification part is just terrible all around, I mean everything that was being linked to it is essentially killing dozens upon dozens of games.
Literally, if David is just kicked out or put to jail for essentially -- like this is essentially all revolving on him since the Schlep incident.
I mean kids are using parents IDs to be able to chat, the AI registering is wonky, Roblox isn't going to uphold their promise, mostly david since he's the main issue in my eyes...
Not only this, Persona for the age verification... Like thingy. Do people not get that Persona got hit with lawsuits or somethings for holding information or people's faces and all? I mean even those that made Character.ai have to realize the red flags in itself

[bright horizon]

🦇

[neat ravine]

She can also do Origami’s with paper, they’re easy to make with tutorials, or sewing? I actually can sew myself and took multiple sewing classes and the amount of tweaking you can do to your clothes for them to fit you right is amazing, I highly recommend it

[jagged pollen]

Technically, I will give benefit of the doubt that at least with Character.ai, people are not interacting with other actual people, so there is that good side of things, but still, I ain't showing my face to a website I don't trust.

[neat ravine]

Neither make noise ^^

[neat ravine]

👀👀 maybe!

Though I think they would make noise being caught…

[minor ether]

anyone still having problems with the app?

[limber grotto]

yeah i'll ask her, nothing with a ||blade|| though cause she can't be around those during those times

[neat ravine]

Uhh organic don’t have the don’t worry. It’s just paper, But be careful with needles they can prick you

[bright horizon]

Ah right

[neat ravine]

[limber grotto]

okay

[neat ravine]

There’s also puzzles, no noise and are easy to do. Don’t get large size puzzles only small

[old bobcat]

is roar still acting up? (i haven’t tried it since i switched to soft launch last week)

[patent rapids]

Are yall apps/website working.?

[coral steeple]

Just let everyone talk to each other geez

They should make something like PX XD

where every word is put up and u can search them up i don’t know how to explain

[limber grotto]

she said she needs something that fully gets her attention so she doesn't have time to think :(

[neat ravine]

Trueee , but honestly it does kinda stop a lot of e daters, atleast the toxic kinds, there are ups and downs

[coral steeple]

so that players don’t have the right to actually say anything bad no matter what

[neat ravine]

Hmmm then maybe she should take a class in PATIENCE

[limber grotto]

what do you mean

[neat ravine]

I’m joking I’m joking please don’t murder me

[coral steeple]

PATIENCE

[neat ravine]

IM JOKING IM JOKING DW

[limber grotto]

what do you mean

[neat ravine]

do yk what patience is—

[coral steeple]

she should wait till she’s 18

[bright horizon]

[neat ravine]

oh! I— maybe not that!

[coral steeple]

u said soon to be which means it’s near

[limber grotto]

i do but i don't understand why you're saying that right now

[neat ravine]

because patience is a good thing! But hey, I get it none the less, sometimes it happens and that’s fine

[limber grotto]

it's literally the one thing that stops her from using the other bad coping mechanism, it's not about patience rn

[limber grotto]

it's not about patience, it's her coping mechanism, the way she distracts herself from bad thoughts

[tender remnant]

I submitted my 6th ticket I hope my chat gets fixed.

[neat ravine]

Yeah she can try doodling / drawing, Makes no sound, no stain, and she can pour all her emotions and thoughts onto the paper the either throw it away or keep it somewhere

[native eagle]

there's a lot of things to be distracted with, imo. ai is inherently an unreliable space for venting

[limber grotto]

okay i'll tell her

[limber grotto]

it's not about venting, as i said, it's distracting herself

[bright horizon]

Music?

[neat ravine]

There’s also journaling! Like having a diary and talking about your day. Even if it’s only 3 sentences or 5, or just fills out one page, it’s still something!

[neat ravine]

She can also listen to music while doodling / journaling ^^

[keen drift]

As an adult who has autism and c-PTSD, I too use c.ai as a way of coping and having something in my life under control. So long as she doesn't overdo it, if you're there for her.

I got my husband to keep me grounded.

[bright horizon]

Yeahh that's what I thought too. That could help

[neat ravine]

mhm! It’s fine none the less, as long as it’s not a toxic or unhealthy behavior!!

[limber grotto]

yeah i have autism and cptsd, and she has ptsd.

[compact tartan]

ohhh

[neat ravine]

ugh I can’t wait to be married

[limber grotto]

My mom’s born in 1985 and nowhere near 60 🙏

[bright horizon]

[native eagle]

Imo the most popular bots currently might also be very old , like ones made when cai didn't even have an app. I can't really say because I've made a handful of detailed bots two years ago from more "niche" sources that only have a few thousand chats

[coral steeple]

i am considering buying a blue cake for my phone

[hot ridge]

She's 64!

[bright horizon]

So many smart people in chat

[coral steeple]
