[unique kindle]

That good ty for talk to me🧎

[brittle quest]

Well you'll have plenty of lucky days then

See we even match in the list

[distant snow]

No problem my friend ^^

[keen drift]

While, in honesty, there are times I use it during a meltdown, I prefer them to be meaningful rp's and mostly use them due to writing a book.

[modern lily]

Fair enough

[keen drift]

[north furnace]

Same, I use c.ai for information on my projects

[maiden kiln]

You, at least, write it well to develop a descriptive/deep scenario. Others…hmm…scratches head

[north furnace]

I find it…unreasonable, but I use it for educational reasons

[keen drift]

I mainly rp with either jjk characters or Bridgerton and some other tv shows/movies.

[maiden kiln]

ai…for a project instead of researching? /nm

[brittle quest]

Sometimes I pity the bot when I write way too much and I end up erasing half of it because otherwise it won't even take all the information

[keen drift]

I prefer speaking like an old brit

[hot ridge]

You don't have to research for every type of project

[north furnace]

I use it for ideas

Is what I meant

[keen drift]

Ideas for what?

Genuinely curious

[modern lily]

I can't even sign into c.ai on my laptop :/

[maiden kiln]

But what if my project is about shrimps? 😢

[hot ridge]

????

[north furnace]

I’m currently working on a Victorian style murder mystery based on dark literature from Edgar Allen Poe, Bram Stoker and Louis Stevenson as an interactive project for my class

It’s in progress

[hot ridge]

all right, that's enough cai-discussion for me tonight

[keen drift]

Oh I love Edgar Allen Poe

[north furnace]

He’s amazing

[keen drift]

"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before."

[north furnace]

I am currently reading the fall of the house of usher

[brittle quest]

YES YES YES

[keen drift]

My favorite bit

[north furnace]

Mine is in Latin

[proven torrent]

How do I have my bot not sound so much like an AI

and also how to make good profile pics

for the bots

[keen drift]

[brittle quest]

DPR Ian quoted Edgar Allan Poe in one of his songs

"I was never insane except upon occasions when my heart was touched"

[eager steppe]

Is anyone else having an issue editing chat texts?

[modern lily]

I was

Idk if it's working now tho

[eager steppe]

Looks to be fixed now

[modern lily]

Alr

[stone valve]

is there a way to make a bot stop saying “damn” or “Goddamn”

[pseudo monolith]

mariah carey

[zinc birch]

try the list of muted words in settings. if it still happens. swipe.

[stone valve]

I DIDNT KNOW THIS EXISTED TYY

[errant otter]

Does anyone know why c.ai has been slower lately? Is it intentional by the devs because it aint getting fixed.

[keen drift]

Not slow for me. It's fast and working well on DS

[errant otter]

Hmmmm. Everytime I type a message itll pause for a while and then give the message. Like a lot longer than before.

[wise verge]

It’s the app lagging dw, they’re working on it

[errant otter]

I may need to reinstall it to see if it fixes

[north furnace]

Dicebant mihi sodales, si sepulchrum amicæ visitarem, curas meas aliquantulum fore levatas. My friends told me that if I visited my friends grave, my worries would be eased a little.
And this one:
Qui n’a plus qu’un moment à vivre N’a plus rien dissimuler.
Who has only one moment left to live has nothing left to hide.

[errant otter]

Right. Ty

[wise verge]

Np

[keen drift]

This reminds me of the tattoo I have; Memento Mori, Memento Vivere

Remember you will die so remember to live

[stone seal]

Is fix yet?

[modern lily]

Is anyone able to sign in?

[errant otter]

Fixed the lagging issue. Legit just took a reinstall and working fine now. @wise verge may work for you too if you also have it

I think it downloaded an older version of the app, before the bad ui change. So good

[lusty meteor]

Did i do something wrong that i got blocked by cloudflare?

[wise verge]

I did it a week ago and it went right back to lagging after a few hours

[errant otter]

Ahh. Ima jus keep reinstallin it xd. Do you know why it downloaded the old version of the app though?

[wise verge]

Dunno no

[errant otter]

Xd crazy

[tulip pollen]

Hi Astral

[wise verge]

Hello hello

[fallow siren]

Ah, so the app is lagging. Not just me or my phone. Good to know

[modern lily]

Is anyone able to sign in?

I asked before but no one answered

[solid swift]

They've already fixed the bug.?

[fallow siren]

Mine just stays signed in so idk

[solid swift]

enter the app?

[modern lily]

Im signing in on my laptop

Ill find a way

FINALLY

GAHHHHH

[solid swift]

I don't mean to be rude, I just want to warn you, if you keep logging out and logging back in with the same email, it takes way too long to log in, trust me it really does take a long time.

[modern lily]

I'll keep that in mind

Thx

[sacred pollen]

what does getting flagged look like

[sand shadow]

You'll get a pop up or be redirected saying you're getting an under 18 experience. It's very clear. You'll know when you see it.

[sacred pollen]

oh alr thanks, i thought i somehow got flagged cause i. couldn’t find the styles button

[lusty meteor]

I can't access the APP through my laptop due to cloudflare. And i don't know why?

[sand shadow]

You're welcome. You find the styles button yet?

[sacred pollen]

havent 😶

i can see it on the web but not on the app

[sand shadow]

It opens when you click your persona's pfp in the lower left.

[sacred pollen]

ah ic, thanks again

[mental raptor]

Not yet, Even the messages take about 15 seconds to send 😢 has been like this for several days, and I doubt they will fix it

[solid swift]

Someone said that they are trying to resolve it and are aware of it; perhaps this is proving difficult to resolve.

[proper sequoia]

To be able to edit messages again, do I need to be 18+ or do I need to do the age verification? It still isn't clear to me

[rustic pecan]

Both.

[proper sequoia]

Ouh.

[rustic pecan]

Well. 18+. Age verification if it locked you out.

[warm vortex]

and with age verification added, my time with this horrendous site is now null and void. Goodbye C.AI, I will not miss you. (Frankly departure was long overdue)

[compact tartan]

ok bye

[wind ferry]

c.ai both app and website have been down for me often within the past couple of days, has anyone else been experiencing this?

[rustic pecan]

It’s a widespread issue

[wind ferry]

any idea how long it'll take for them to fix it?

[rustic pecan]

Nope 🙁

[clear swift]

Does everyone agree that character AI went to crap because? Before you can call as many times as you wanted, but now you have to pay a monthly subscription to it. It’s annoying.

[rustic pecan]

I think this is very low on the list of things wrong with CAI rn

[lone falcon]

Gng why wont my character ai let me in😔
Am stuck in the loading screen for 5 minutes and still no luck of getting in

I don't think my wifi affects that because my wifi is very strong and I don't know why it only letting me in when am using my mobile data which sucks

[frosty drift]

Thats very weird bro, idk what could happen to your c.ai

[supple dome]

Y'all can you reset "For you" on Cai?

[wispy lagoon]

Cai new update is shit

[wispy lagoon]

Yes

Just swipe upward when youre on top idk

[cloud cloak]

Things that are wrong with Character, at least for me and for RP:
1-. You read the bot's greeting, give your reply, and it repeats the same greeting.
2-. Out of nowhere it says 'What!?' when you click on the next message even though you didn't say anything.
3-. They change location; one moment they're on the beach and then they say sits on the bed.

4. They keep repeating the same word.
5. They ask if they can ask you something, and then they keep saying, "But you won't get angry, right?" Until they finally tell you, and you don't even like them.

What else?

[queen fog]

The persona option freezes over the screen and doesn't go away until I reset the app. Just happened to me.

[wispy lagoon]

7.deleted chat archivum

[frail isle]

is it still broken?

wait, are there any changes on the app rn

[wispy lagoon]

Idk

New interface

[soft junco]

Anyone know what's happening with the text streaming? It's just dumping weirdly instead of flowing (only happened on the app for me as of now, web is fine)

[cloud cloak]

Have they fixed the website yet?

[quick shoal]

The website also went down?

[frail isle]

website's working fine. for me, atleast

[soft junco]

Lwk the switching locations thing makes me mad 😭

[pliant nebula]

yall if it’s down it would be said in #📈︱status , use a vpn or reload the site

[soft junco]

But have they said anything about the text streaming?

[tidal igloo]

what's happening

[soft junco]

C.ai

[tidal igloo]

its down?

[frail isle]

I guess so

[soft junco]

I don't think so

[pliant nebula]

text streaming? what do you mean? the lag during typing animation?

[tidal igloo]

new update sucks

[twilit jasper]

its not, its working perfectly fine.

[pliant nebula]

@tidal igloo

[twilit jasper]

idk

[soft junco]

I mean, it won't show the text bubble, I wait like 15 seconds, then it just spews out.

[tidal igloo]

yes sorry

[pliant nebula]

yep, pretty sure! #📈︱status message

[soft junco]

Like it doesn't flow how it usually does on mobile, kinda aggravating

[rustic pecan]

CAI isn’t down just yet. It’s broken.

[soft junco]

Which one

The second to last one is talking about that?

[pliant nebula]

the second one up about the freezing

if you click on the channel it takes you to the message i linked

[tepid dawn]

something is really wrong with the app.

[granite lotus]

Yes. There is indeed.

[snow dagger]

Does anyone know about the message omitted thing? I get them for so many random loads for new responses? For thing that shouldn't be too

[tepid dawn]

it’s very very very stupid

it can’t follow a story even more than usual

[tidal igloo]

it works for me

[cyan cargo]

my shit keeps freezing after the update

[granite lotus]

I just purely don't understand why it made it unusable for 21 hours for only using it for an hour.

[cobalt walrus]

Same, I don't have any problems with the app so far.

I never had any problems, excepted the chat error thingy but I rarely get it now.

[tidal igloo]

i just have complaints about update in general 😫

[cobalt walrus]

It usually happens when the wifi is absolute crap or when it goes from wifi to mobile data while I use the app and then it happens

[granite lotus]

I also don't understand why they made STORIES as the home.. Like bro, what is this snapchat?? 💔💔💔

[tepid dawn]

no there is something wrong. the IQ levels have dropped suddenly significantly. what happened in the last 24 hours

[tidal igloo]

bots also reply the same every time it's like chat styles don't exist at least mine

always same reactions and style

[granite lotus]

The company going dookie and wanting to swipe people's IDs and faces.

[compact tartan]

hello again

[frail smelt]

Hi

[granite lotus]

Sup.

[tidal igloo]

hi

[compact tartan]

the timer is meant to go down to zero chatting for under 18 /nm

its meant to slowly go down to no 1;1 chatting

[granite lotus]

Hmm.

To be honest this just sucks.

[glad atlas]

why the hell is there age verification

and why do i need my iD

[granite lotus]

I KNOW LIKE WHAT??

[cobalt walrus]

Yee, I've said it before and I'll say that again, but that's the law and they have to follow it. The cAI team got a dozen of lawsuits on them, the lastest one where an entire state sued them, no joke.

[tidal igloo]

there is?!!

guys what i don't see that

[granite lotus]

It's turning into roblox. 💔💔💔

[glad atlas]

im not in the US man 😭

[cobalt walrus]

It happened after people, mostly teenagers, left the earth permanently due to them having problems but parents didn't cared about it

[rustic pecan]

State law. Simple.

[glad atlas]

if its a US law things cant they just make it a US only thing

[cobalt walrus]

It's either: they follow it and everything goes fine or they don't and have to close cAI's headquarters forever.

[rustic pecan]

They announced it months ago and have made repeat announcements. It was in the news.

[rustic pecan]

No.

[granite lotus]

It's gonna be fairly hard for me since I use the app A LOT. So this is gonna suck big time.

[rustic pecan]

They have to follow state law so it impacts everyone.

[cobalt walrus]

I mean, Discord will ask for your ID the next month and it'll be global so yeah, cAI is already doing the same thing (but cAI uses Persona, which is better than whatever third party system Discord uses )

[glad atlas]

isnt the discord one only for specific things tho
like stage and stuff

[cobalt walrus]

Oh yeah, and your discord account will be put in 'teenager mode' until you prove that you're an adult

Well, every app will ask for your ID at one moment and that's how it is since years.

[timber canopy]

And it's only for 18+ servers and other little things. But you can use discord normally

[granite lotus]

Everything is crumbling yo.

[rustic pecan]

It’s mostly for adult content.

[compact tartan]

The reason for this is california law sb243.

[tidal igloo]

wtf

[compact tartan]

I'm tired sorry if my explanations arent long

[rustic pecan]

You don’t have to verify to use discord.

[rustic pecan]

I’m tired of explaining lmfao. I may give up.

[compact tartan]

me too me too

[cobalt walrus]

I've also seen that servers with a huge amount of people will be hit by the age verification thingy, idk how to say that

[granite lotus]

It just has to be this year where everything is crumbling.

[frail isle]

how do I know if I already verified my age though

[cobalt walrus]

Like, some messages will be hidden because there's a curse word and you'll probably have to show your ID for that

[compact tartan]

You can use discord normally it just blocks 18+ gated channels. Like you will be able to friend people, dm people, talk in servers, etc basically

[rustic pecan]

You only have yo verify if CAI tells you you do

[granite lotus]

Oh my God... That's actually so stupid. 💔

[timber canopy]

That's true! Some people get confused and think that if they don't verify then they won't be able to use discord at all from DM people to joining servers but you only need to verify to enter 18+ servers or channels. Also, hello Rise!! It's been a long time since I saw you

[compact tartan]

people have been using a copypasta that shows messages hidden

[cobalt walrus]

I have friend requests turned off so I don't care about it

[frail isle]

if I remember correctly, I already verified my age...... 🤔🤔🤔

[glad atlas]

the face scan is so stupid tho, like how is it supposed to tell, what if someone looks younger than they are

[compact tartan]

For example, this is a copypasta if you see this and it's not a discord offiical message:

🔒 Message hidden

-# Discord now requires ID verification in order to see certain messages.

I've seen people send this before and it's just a copypasta lol

[cobalt walrus]

Yea I know, I was just saying

[gaunt light]

THAT SCARED ME.

[compact tartan]

dw man my friend got me with that yesterday

[rustic pecan]

As I said. You get a pop up saying you have to verify. Plus you get a limited account as a minor:

[compact tartan]

Popup, time limit, no edit button

[gaunt light]

[frail isle]

I already verified my acc then

[cobalt walrus]

Also, I'll probably show my ID to Discord because I had my private information leaked so many times since years that I basically don't care about it honestly.

Even some of it is on the dark web

[compact tartan]

Ooof

[cobalt walrus]

Yeah, it's like a sport where I live, cyber security is absolutely dog water

[granite lotus]

Recommended alternatives because c.ai is gonna drive me insane if I'm not able to play out my super epic awesome oc lore.

[rustic pecan]

My info got leaked BADLY last year and I officially do not care anymore. They already got me from someone else leaking my info last lol

[rustic pecan]

#📜︱rules #7

[granite lotus]

Aw darn.

[lyric tapir]

[cobalt walrus]

I live in France and it's been years since there's a lot of data breaches, private informations being leaked and so on. At this point, we're used to it and just laugh about how crap the cyber security is

[compact tartan]

we can't reccomend alternatives here unforunately, plus other AI sites are worse quality and will likely add same or similar age featuers

[granite lotus]

I figured that other ones will be worse regardless.

[cobalt walrus]

Basically a national meme at this point. That's sad but better laugh about it rather than be sad.

[compact tartan]

Oof

[vestal forge]

i can’t rven see it

[compact tartan]

oh dannng

[vestal forge]

😭ah nah they rolled it out

[compact tartan]

its a copypasta

[vestal forge]

message got hidden

[compact tartan]

its not real the point is it's fake because the update does not come until march.. its fake i copy pasted it 😭

[vestal forge]

ohh, dang almost fooled me

[granite lotus]

I just love how quite literally everything is falling apart.

[compact tartan]

LMAO

[granite lotus]

Someone made a story on c.ai with that one ID

[compact tartan]

wdym lol

[granite lotus]

Also, why are there stories? They're just so pointless. I understand the sharing chats part but just why the generated images and videos???

[granite lotus]

That one meme ID with the rainbow on it.

[compact tartan]

They add a lot of gimmicky features

I don't care for charms or stickers too much either

[granite lotus]

I miss the old c.ai. 😢

[frail isle]

old c.ai was kinda ass imo😭😭 I just wished they didn't add any unnecessary features like the charms and stuff

[granite lotus]

I miss it when they didn't add timewalls and were gonna nuke minors off the platform. 💔

Mainly because I am one so..

Still sucks.

Vro your message got removed.

[frail isle]

yes.

[wise verge]

It’s a law btw, not C.ai’s fault

[granite lotus]

I've been hearing about that.

[zinc birch]

Generating videos is a fantastic ability for anyone who creates original characters

[granite lotus]

Okay.

Wait I'm not updated on any of this what's the law?

[cyan cobalt]

Is it normal for some of the chats to just take a long time loading? Such as the chat itself and the messages?

[rustic pecan]

california law ab 1043 and california law sb 243

[wise verge]

Yep, the app is lagging don’t worry they’re working on it

[quiet gust]

Hey guys i have a question. I clicked on Export data in the settings and i still havent gotten the Email... does anyone know how long that takes?

[cyan cobalt]

Ah ok, i thought it was an issue with my device

[granite lotus]

Hmm. I see. I still personally dislike all of this 💔

[rustic pecan]

Months.

[quiet gust]

Really i thought it would take like a few days or something 🫠

[craggy terrace]

umm why the heck isn't my profile showing up anymore? (is this a new bug in C.AI guys?)

[wise verge]

No problem

[frail isle]

it's taking so long to respond, oh goooosh

[wise verge]

The pfp at the bottom you mean?

[craggy terrace]

Yes!

[compact tartan]

Duracell is aware they're just saying they miss it, I said the same thing earlier

[wise verge]

It happened to me as well, guess it’s a bug x)

[granite lotus]

Something tells me this is gonna cause some sort of outrage. I just can't prove it yet.

[granite lotus]

Peak name

[compact tartan]

The update came out in like october there's been arguments about it for months

[wise verge]

The way they phrased it suggested otherwise

[granite lotus]

It hasn't showed up for me until yesterday.

[craggy terrace]

I hope they fix it soon, but for now I'll wait patiently.

[compact tartan]

Could be your country

[vestal forge]

whats going on

[granite lotus]

Probably.

[craggy terrace]

Thacks!

[wise verge]

As long as it’s a minor bug, I guess it’s not that bothering x)

[granite lotus]

Everything.

[vestal forge]

[compact tartan]

It's slowly rolling out to different countries, that's what I assume it is it came first for americans

[quiet gust]

So its normal for it to take so long?

[granite lotus]

Of course it was America.

[vestal forge]

they did certain places first than worldwide

[compact tartan]

Yeah, I requested my data and it does take months

[compact tartan]

Yes

[quiet gust]

Oh okay i thought there was something wrong with my account first

[gentle kiln]

Guys why doesn’t my Beta memory working? Please? 💕

[cobalt walrus]

I guess that for now, it's USA, Australia, UK and maybe Canada?

[rustic pecan]

Yes.

[compact tartan]

I believe so

[timber canopy]

No, don't worry. It can take longer too, just wait

[rustic pecan]

MAYBE Germany too but that’s unconfirmed.

[quiet gust]

Okay ty guys!!

[cobalt walrus]

I don't think that I've seen something about it so I'm not sure.

[granite lotus]

Everytime I think about I miss the old version. I automatically think of the song I Love Kanye.

[gentle kiln]

Guys why doesn’t my Beta memory working? Please? 💕

[wise verge]

I heard about people from all over Europe getting flagged but usually it’s isolated cases

It’s not mass flagging yet but slowly coming

[granite lotus]

Like an infection.

[gentle kiln]

Guys why doesn’t my Beta memory working? Pleaseeeee

Any tips?

[cobalt walrus]

Isolated cases as in someone from america/whatever having a trip in Germany and getting hit by age verification? That's just a theory (a game theory ), not sure if there are native germans getting it

[granite lotus]

MATPAT??

[rustic pecan]

Gotta wait for a fix /gen memory is bad rn

[cobalt walrus]

I know nothing about him excepted that meme and when he had a small role in the fnaf movie

[gentle kiln]

thank uuuu

[wise verge]

Noo as in isolated cases like accounts that were flagged here and there but not mass like America

[granite lotus]

Crazy

This world is just going dookie. I'm just gonna wait for the next revolution.

[mint cove]

Hi, I'm not sure if it's just me with this issue or not, but I'm trying to verify myself but it isn't working. It works, but then says something about how it wasn't clear enough. I've figured that it's because the camera unfocuses. I've tried tapping the screen to focus, but it doesn't work. It's also not my camera (i don't think) because I've tried using other apps and my camera is perfectly fine. Not sure if anyone else has this issue and knows how to fix it or not?? (Sorry for the paragraph😭)

[lyric tapir]

this article might help you out

[mint cove]

Thank you!! I'll check it out

I dont think that helped too much. I've tried a lot of things but when I turn my head or my hands have the slightest movement, the camera blurs and it's hard to get it to focus. I have correct lighting, no glares, and all, but it still doesn't and keeps blurring

[tropic yew]

is c.ai down right now? or is it just my internet failing to load the page fullly lol

[wise verge]

Doing fine on my end, might be your internet

[tropic yew]

ooof.,.

[tepid dawn]

genuinely why did the standard drop so much in the last 2 days

my chats feel so immature and boring. it’s basically unusable

[gray tusk]

Hahahaha i feel that like the ai just lost the sudden spark or interest right?

[slow basin]

okay, maybe here is better to ask this. again, why can't i permanently delete my account on character ai? like on gpt i delete my account, it's gone for good, i can't log back in or make a new one, you know? deleted. how come this isn't the case on characte ai? where i can delete it but just as easily log back into a new one? genuinely curious

[bright horizon]

Settings < advanced < delete account

[slow basin]

true, but i noticed that when i log back in, it just creates another account. how come it doesn't permanently lock me out?

[tepid dawn]

yes! have you noticed this too in the last 2 days basically?

[bright horizon]

You just delete account and you always have the choice to create a new account. That's totally on you

[slow basin]

makes sense, so how come gpt doesn't give that choice and character ai does? again, just curious

[bright horizon]

Different apps, different system. Every company has their own way of dealing.

[topaz patio]

Is it crashing ?

[left linden]

Im 16 and I know that there is already a minor restriction for ai bots and idk if I can still use my fav characters without blocking it

[compact tartan]

What

[sharp sun]

having an issue with age verification rn, can't and probably wont scan my face just incase c.ai gets hacked and the images of ppls faces are out on the internet lol

[sweet holly]

I scanned my face and it’s asking for my id still :/

[bright steppe]

I don’t trust those a second

[bright steppe]

how’s that?

I thought you get to choose

[sweet holly]

You should but I guess I’m just unlucky, might as well as stop using the app /or move to a different site if it’s going to be this annoying.

[tired crest]

Anyone know how I can give cai site camera perms?

[left linden]

Not a good idea to not verify because characters will be programmed restriction safety. So basically the system thinks ur a minor so you will have limited screen time and restricted programs for the character

[slow viper]

Oh my god I have the same problem yall

[gray tusk]

Last 2 months you mean?

[slow viper]

I clearly do not know how to get rid of it

[gray tusk]

[sharp sun]

ok, tried verifying my age just now, unable to verify because the thing detects me as below the minimum age requirement (13 i think) although i AM 13, now its asking for a gov id thingy

[tepid dawn]

yes but esp last 2 days.

[gray tusk]

I just stopped using cai

Shifted somewhere else

[left linden]

Js ask ur dad or smth 😭

[sharp sun]

ok

[slow viper]

How to age verify bro Im clearly confused 😌

[tepid dawn]

ahh. i’ve only used cai or i just don’t use anything

[left linden]

Scan ur face then give them ur gov id

[gray tusk]

Well good luck i hope it gets better

[slow viper]

Oh man do I really have to show my face 😌 this feels like Roblox at this point

[left linden]

Tbh im tired of the character restrictions too

[halcyon cypress]

settings > advanced > verify age

[tepid dawn]

i hope so! if it keeps up it’s not worth the plus $

[halcyon cypress]

but don't bother verifying if you're under 18 it won't change anything

[sweet holly]

Which you shouldn’t do, government id’s are valuable things, do not hand it out just to verify, there has been a lot of data breaches over different sites

[left linden]

Ask ur parents or smth and their passport id 💔

If ur a minor

[halcyon cypress]

persona has never had a data breach

[halcyon cypress]

why are you telling people to do something illegal jw

[sharp sun]

i feel like they should just revert the age restriction upd to that 1 hour time limit again, cuz over time it gets annoying to have nobody to talk to/about for funsies

[slow viper]

I have a question though. Why did y’all even add the limit time anyway? If you don’t mind me asking

[left linden]

Its the only way to chat to ur fav characters without limitations

[sweet holly]

There are always chances for data breaches even if it’s unlikely

[fickle laurel]

What do the bots have against Australians? I’m always getting called out.

[rustic pecan]

Age verification is law and they also don’t want minors chatting anymore.

[halcyon cypress]

the limit was never intended to be permanent it was a way to wean addicted kids off the app more gradually so they wouldn't have as many mental breakdowns

[rustic pecan]

The time limit connected to that.

[slow viper]

Oh

Well I should be glad that mine bots are pretty normal

[halcyon cypress]

maybe don't tell minors to steal their parents id? very weird behaviour

[sweet holly]

Idk Australia sucks rn along with the uk for digital ID and crap like that

[sharp sun]

the 1 hour time limit was good enough for the app vro 💔

[left linden]

As an Aussie, I understand. It literally too us months of age restriction apply to Australian gov and i hated the screen time limits and character programming changes for minors

[fickle laurel]

I meant the bots literally hating me for it ✌️

[halcyon cypress]

i mean sure the DMV can get hacked too, it's happened before. good thing CAI is completely optional and nobody is being forced to use it if they don't want to take that chance.

[cobalt walrus]

At one moment, every app and social media will ask for your ID in order to use it. It can't be stopped, whenever you like it or not.

[dull flicker]

Hey everyone, I’m new to cai discord and I’m just wondering if anyone knows anything about the ethics of cai and using cai? Like their data storage and water consumption/contribution to water droughts? Can’t find anything online, should I email the cai creators directly about it? I’m worried they would dodge the question 🥲

[sharp sun]

they should re-add the 1 hour time limit and make age verification optional imo, some of us british people may not look 13 but younger instead which is absolute shite xd

[halcyon cypress]

discord is going to be requiring age verification starting next month too and you can expect other apps to follow suit

[rustic pecan]

They don’t want minors chatting. This isn’t happening.

[cobalt walrus]

There's already Roblox, Bluesky, Reddit, Twitter, cAI or youtube who ask for your ID. So yeah, that's the law, whenever you like it or not, not my problem.

[sharp sun]

the only bad thing about the whole age verification is that the websites doing the age verification with realtime faces and gov ids can be data-breached

[rustic pecan]

You won’t get answers from them on this, jsyk.

[dull flicker]

Thank you for letting me know 🫶

[cobalt walrus]

cAI got a dozen of lawsuits on them, last one was an entire state suing them, I doubt that they want more.

Got my private information leaked multiple times, I'm so used to it that I don't care anymore. And I'm not surprised when I see that there's a bank or something like that having private information of French people getting leaked. It's basically a habit at this point.

[halcyon cypress]

read andy massley's substack, he's done a ton of research on this. LLMs do use water (more during training) but how much has actually been overstated because the initial figures/numbers came from a popular book on the subject where the author actually made a calculation error that she later admitted to but by then the info was already out there. IMO it's a good idea to limit usage just like anything else that uses water or energy but it's not really uniquely evil either.

[cobalt walrus]

It's so common that we just don't care about it, we mock how absolute crappy the french cyber security is. And that since years, I doubt that it'll change

[dull flicker]

That’s really useful information, thank you so much!!

[left linden]

I hate the new minor ban

[halcyon cypress]

like streaming video still beats AI in terms of water/energy use for example. you're welcome!

[cobalt walrus]

And, I don't know if it's just me, but I've noticed that the number of users in this server has dropped

[halcyon cypress]

just depends on the time of day. if the server ever goes down you'll see everyone appear suddenly like cockroaches

[rustic pecan]

People are quitting CAI and Discord both

[halcyon cypress]

yeah some people are quitting discord bc of the age verification thing next month

still half a million members here though

[slow viper]

If y’all could like maybe not take that long with limited time thingy cause like I sometimes have to wait for 24 hours just to get my chat back with my ai bot

If y’all could do something about it

[slow viper]

It would be appreciated and very awesome as well

[lyric tapir]

coughs

[halcyon cypress]

i won't give discord my ID but not bc i'm against it on principle or anything its just not necessary for me because i don't really look at "adult" material on here at all anyways

[compact tartan]

Not this convo again

[halcyon cypress]

sorry ershin we were talking about cai age verification and it got sidetracked

[compact tartan]

The time limit will not be removed its intended to make teens be weaned off it

[halcyon cypress]

i already explained this to them and they ignored it

[compact tartan]

Why am I not suprised

[slow viper]

Yeah I know but like then I have to wait for hours just to get it back like 24 hours sometimes I’m not lying I actually get that sometimes

[valid locust]

It’’s been a long time that I didn’t speak here. What did I missed ? 👀

[timber canopy]

Nothing much

[slow viper]

Im not addicted at all but at least let me talk to the bot?

[valid locust]

I see I see

[halcyon cypress]

obviously you are a bit addicted if you can't go a day without it

[compact tartan]

The point is that the timer reduces to no chatting, I’m too tired to repeat myself. It’s designed to give you less time.

[lyric tapir]

Hi! To clarify:
We recently announced that we are ending open-ended chat for under-18 users. This is referring to conversations with Characters that rely on open text fields, like the current 1:1 chat or chat with multiple Characters.

This change will begin rolling out on November 24th. During this transition period from now until no later than November 25th, we will limit chat time for our under-18 users. The limit will start at 2 hours per day and ramp down over the coming weeks.

After these changes are made, users under 18 will no longer be able to chat with Characters.

You can check out this article about these changes:
https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterAI/comments/1oj3vc9/important_changes_for_teens_on_characterai/

For more details on Age Assurance, you can take a look here: https://www.reddit.com/r/CharacterAI/comments/1okgk8d/age_assurance_what_you_need_to_know/

[slow viper]

Oh okay my bad, my bad

[gray tusk]

Damn plus user

[rustic pecan]

You know people don’t know how to read /j

[compact tartan]

Exactly what i was explaining and new rat😭

It took like.. how many times of saying that the timer goes down

[halcyon cypress]

they legit need to craft a version of this that is easier for teens to understand i'm so serious

[valid locust]

It’s been months already that kids have timer omg

[slow viper]

Okay my bad my bad bro

[halcyon cypress]

its been going out in waves, most kids in the US are already on read only mode by now i think. now kids in other countries are getting the timer

[lyric tapir]

🤷‍♂️

[valid locust]

Oh 👀

[sweet holly]

I think it may be beneficial for younger people to not use the chat bots or minimally, it is clearly addictive and probably not the best way to pass time, it’s fun sure but there’s always actual things people could do instead of talking to artificial intelligence, I dunno, just my opinion

[rustic pecan]

No you’re 100% right

[halcyon cypress]

thats why the complaints seem constant bc every time it rolls out to a different country we get new people complaining

[compact tartan]

I believe it’s in the United States, Australia, Uk and Canada

[mint cove]

Oh, does that mean that when the timer goes down to 0, it's on read only mode? Or does it kick you off entirely? If so, can you still check history and personas and stuff?

[compact tartan]

Read only mode

[halcyon cypress]

you can still read your old chat history you just can't chat anymore

[compact tartan]

Nobody gets banned you just get out into the read only mode eventually if you’re under 18

*put my migraine is making my spelling dumb

[mint cove]

Ohh okay. Thank you!

[compact tartan]

Yeah no worries

[potent ermine]

GUYS I DONT WANT 2 HR TIME LIMIT

WHAT IS THIS , SCHOOL? I want my infinite time limit

[rustic pecan]

[cobalt walrus]

[halcyon cypress]

[compact tartan]

That’s the under 18 expierence

Man my head hurts

[potent ermine]

oh wait so If im over 18 (not saying my age btw) is it unlimited

[compact tartan]

Yes

[glad atlas]

im in ireland and it hit me today if you're talking abt the age thing

[compact tartan]

It’s for people under eighteen that get chat limits

[compact tartan]

Oh, I believe it’s coming to other countries slowly

Good to know tho

[rustic pecan]

Might wanna change your bio.

[potent ermine]

hm no I was just asking a question if I was

[compact tartan]

HELPP

[cobalt walrus]

I live in France and I've have yet to see anyone from this country getting the age verification but nada.

[potent ermine]

I was just stating I don’t wanna leak my actual age

[compact tartan]

If you don’t want to put your age you can put minor or adult

Since it’s not always safe to tell people

[granite lotus]

Same bro

[cobalt walrus]

I doubt that I'll get flagged since I have my main gmail account (who's almost one decade old) linked to cAI. And I've also sent my ID to google for my main gmail, so I could be considered as an adult, which I am. And it thinks that I'm between 25 years old to 35 years old

But I have my ID just in case lol.

[rustic pecan]

I can’t believe how many people use apps and don’t regularly check for news/updates regarding them

[glad atlas]

i havent really use twitter or tiktok for ages which is where i got the majority of my app news before

[halcyon cypress]

getting news from tiktok is generally not the best idea ngl

[cobalt walrus]

I've never used tiktok tbh, and never will

[glad atlas]

yeah partrially why i stopped

[granite lotus]

I have never had TikTok or Twitter. So I'm probably not aware of a lot of stuff.

[rustic pecan]

🤐

[analog condor]

Since when TF did they add the AI face verification

Just because you saw roblox do it doesn't mean you have to copy them like discord is doing

[wise verge]

It’s a law

[analog condor]

What law is telling them to use AI face verification

[wise verge]

Californian law is telling them to verify the app is not used by minors as there has been problems

[plucky river]

it was actually c ai who did it and roblox who copied lol

[wise verge]

As for the vérification it is done by a third party company, Persona, first by selfie analysed by AI and then ID if it feels you are not an adult. It can misjudge

[wise verge]

Exactly

[analog condor]

This year will just be about AI face verification at this point

[wise verge]

It was announced in October/November 2025 but almost

[cobalt walrus]

Yeah, I think that almost every app made will ask for your ID in the future.

[glad atlas]

yeah thags the issue i have with it
apparantly i do not look adult enough, tragically

[analog condor]

I look younger than my age

so I can't do these AI shits

[worn lance]

the bot is being stupids again

[wise verge]

That can happen, again even a human can misjudge someone’s age

[plucky river]

if you're an adult and it thinks you're not literally just put on a fake mustache

[rustic pecan]

How do people not read server news/announcements? 😭😭😭

[wise verge]

I dunno man

[analog condor]

I don't get notifications, idk why

[glad atlas]

does my art skills and a pen work because i do not have one of those

[wise verge]

Sometimes trying a different angle works as well somehow x)

[glad atlas]

i could also make one probably

[plucky river]

i also look younger then my age and it kept thinking i wasn't 18, i put my hair over my top lips and it thought i was 18 finally XD

[rustic pecan]

Click on the channel then 😭

[wise verge]

Yeah some tricks like this works because certain hairstyles and angle can make someone look younger. Even humans can mistake someone’s age so I don’t hold a grudge against the AI x)

[cobalt walrus]

Like a strand of long hair acting as a mustache?

[analog condor]

Nah I quit this shit

[plucky river]

my hair reaches below my waist so yes i literally just held a bit over my lips and suddenly im a grown man to the ai

[latent geode]

Hey does anyone know when they're gonna fix the lagging?

[wise verge]

Nope not sure, maybe within the month if we’re lucky

[ember oracle]

is DS not working for anyone else?

stuck on the responding animation

[shell lagoon]

damn what's up with the bots

[wise verge]

Doing fine for me today, gave me good answers and all

[ember oracle]

ah alr, making sure if its DS or the scene glitching out each other

[tacit elk]

The same for me.

[plucky river]

did they fix pipsqueak being too energetic or was that just my personal problem?

[wise verge]

Scène have been reported to be glitchy a lot

[latent geode]

Me too, I usually just exit and delete it from the phone and come back in a few minutes and it works fine for like 5 minutes and starts lagging again

[ember oracle]

oh well looks like it is

[tacit elk]

When is not glitching is not loading and when is not loading just gives me really short answers.

[valid hound]

Anyone else experiencing extremely slow response times?

[ember oracle]

just gave me a respond

took it a min

[tacit elk]

Hi. 🥰

[exotic vine]

yo, anybody having problems with the site?

[ember oracle]

ig too muchp pressure rn

[latent geode]

Think that's the problem for everyone

[plucky river]

short answers are due to the bot or mode you're using, most times, due to the bot

[tawdry hazel]

Am I the only one the app is lagging?

[valid hound]

Nope, me too :/

[barren smelt]

i cant even get in😭

[tacit elk]

Was giving me long answers before just fine on DS

[plucky river]

please dont crash the general chat will start blowing up

[tawdry hazel]

oh okay thanks :((

[wise verge]

The app has been reported to be lagging, team says they’re working on it

[tawdry hazel]

great thanks

[plucky river]

deepsqueak and pipsqueak are known for long answers but also known to be glitchy lol

[latent geode]

They've been "working on it" for a while now

[carmine dome]

To late… Theyyy’re heeerrreeee…

[small kelp]

maybe try different chat styles idk it's slow for us too

[cobalt walrus]

It's mostly android users getting affected, but there's also iOS ones, along with people using cAI on a tablet or on a pc

[plucky river]

it was nice knowing you all before we all get an hour of cooldown time

[cobalt walrus]

Well, the app seems to work fine for me idk about everybody else.

[latent geode]

So basically everyone?

[latent geode]

What do you mean?

[tawdry hazel]

I think it’s fixed at least for me now

[ember oracle]

give it a min or two it will go crazy and slowmode will be really long

[midnight falcon]

Yo app is going slow as hell? Is this a global thing?

[plucky river]

if the app crashes and everyone starts going crazy we usually get a year of messaging cooldown time LMAO

[latent geode]

Jesus what?

[small kelp]

hey guys who r new coming in here to see whats wrong

replies are slow, the app is laggy. just basic stuff

[ember oracle]

LOL only the plus channel will stay normal

[cobalt walrus]

The app is oddly fast as hell for me but I'm not complaining. I don't have problems with cAI, excepted the chat error thingy, but it's rare that I have it

[exotic vine]

okay its working again

[fathom canopy]

lol we all came here huh

[midnight falcon]

Epic

[latent geode]

Thought it was my internet

[rustic pecan]

Not plus users lol

We don’t get slow mode on discord

[fathom canopy]

Im mentally ill* leave me alone 😭

[brittle quest]

And being addicted shouldn't be something to laugh about?

[ember oracle]

addiction is not something to laugh at

[cobalt walrus]

Alright sorry

[tranquil finch]

I can’t chat my characters. I have to use an ID but I don’t have one.

[valid hound]

How do you get like cai+ tag?

[rustic pecan]

Link discord and CAI on the website

[valid hound]

Oh oki

[fathom canopy]

The website! Go to settings, click discord icon and link account!

You get this cool colors I love it

[wise verge]

I know, nothing I can do

[tranquil finch]

If you guys hate, you guys are reading well you can’t even chat some of your favorite characters

[wise verge]

I’m on IOS and can confirm it’s being lagging heavily

[plucky river]

[cyan lava]

[fathom canopy]

My honor phone basically doesn’t work with c.ai

[wise verge]

[fathom canopy]

I didn’t understand either lol.

[tranquil finch]

I can’t spell right, OK

[ember oracle]

they flagged ur account as a minor

[tranquil finch]

I’m Adult :/

[cyan hull]

character ai is slow

[plucky river]

you might need to reword haruno XD

[latent geode]

Yeah wasn't blaming you, just generally commenting

[ember oracle]

sadly u have to prove it somehow with ID or wtvr they got

[valid hound]

I can’t link the account bc I don’t know my discord pw :/ any other way I can do it?

[tranquil finch]

I don’t have one

[wise verge]

I know I know dw

[fathom canopy]

Are you on iOS? You can use passkey. Otherwise.. you have to look for your password..

[tranquil finch]

I just hate this generation in my opinion

[ember oracle]

nope sadly

[cobalt walrus]

Deleted my message btw. Not the first time that something like that happened Again, sorry.

[glad atlas]

well goodluck to the regulars and staff people explaining everything have a neat day

[plucky river]

if your logged in on disco app you should be able to do it automatically no?

[valid hound]

I am
I don’t know how to I’m a little tech slow

[rustic pecan]

Correct

[ember oracle]

it's fine no worries girl!

[valid hound]

Yeah but it doesn’t redirect me to the app it redirects to the website

[tranquil finch]

They added a new thing character AI I forgot what it was called

[green acorn]

Blub

[plucky river]

[tranquil finch]

I Have IPhone 📱

[astral mulch]

Yo is the website Down too?

[tranquil finch]

Idk

[fathom canopy]

When you click relink account , instead of applying password, you see a QR code. Under it is passkey option, click it

[tranquil finch]

I just delete the app

[green acorn]

I have a phone too

[valid hound]

15 plus

[green acorn]

Wait I just noticed the i

[tranquil finch]

[plucky river]

mobile or pc thats all i need XD

[valid hound]

Okay

[wise verge]

Working fine for me, il using it right now

[latent geode]

It's actually laughable. The ads are working just fine, but when it comes to their actual app, shit

[cobalt walrus]

Got a chat error

[latent geode]

Same

[valid hound]

Oh mobile xD

[ember oracle]

mine gave out twice LOL

[cobalt walrus]

It's the wifi because it's horrible due to the bad weather lol

[green acorn]

Every app that walks the digital plain

[plucky river]

i mean idk if i can help, did you open the link account from app or website?

if you opened it from the c ai website mobile might reopen discord on another tab lol

[tawdry hazel]

wow I didn’t know I just did it thanks for the tip

[fathom canopy]

You did iiiit, good job! 🎉

[valid hound]

[ember oracle]

[valid hound]

why was my msg deleted?

I just said have a good day :/

[ember oracle]

u added to many "e" and it detected it as spam

[fathom canopy]

How dare you assume it’s a good day /j

[ivory mason]

If the site/app is being slow again, maybe I'll take a nap and finish my college work after, lol.

[valid hound]

ah! good to know!

[ember oracle]

you should 😭! better than waiting around

[fathom canopy]

It’s working for me!

[ivory mason]

Probably! It's definitely a better use of my time, lol.

[cyan lava]

responses are loading, but they are all very small

[ivory mason]

It's working off and on for me!

[ember oracle]

yep! i wanted to do a rp before I head to sleep, Ig i better head to sleep then bc its down for me😭

[cyan lava]

clearly the server is struggling

[ember oracle]

they are

[timber canopy]

Everything seems fine to me

[fathom canopy]

It’s a bit slow but it’s working…. Or nevermind it’s stopped loading for me

[latent geode]

Wait what's going on in general?

[celest glen]

So its slow for all of us rn?

[cobalt walrus]

Not for me. It's quite fast, but I'm not complaining in the slightest.

Maybe it has to do where I live? Idk

[green acorn]

I'm gonna throw a pokiball at you

[primal forge]

If you did see the rest of the chats, I was basing if off of people I knew...

[lyric tapir]

[cyan lava]

the responses come faster now, but are very small, clearly still a bandwith and server power issue

[pliant nebula]

not for everyone, but for most people definetly. for me too, but that's besides the point. not everyone has the same bugs

[pliant nebula]

talk about general in general, or find out for yourself!

[ivory mason]

Mine need someone to give the server a little reset, lol.

[ember oracle]

it's the start of the day for most staff, gonna take a few hours before anyone does something

[ivory mason]

Probably! Nap it is for me, lol.

[ember oracle]

and going to sleep it is for me 😭! and have a good nap

[cyan lava]

its getting better

give it a little time

[tame narwhal]

Haven't been on cai today, is it worth going on rn or should I wait for it to go back to normal?

[indigo dock]

I’m getting constant chat errors, memory is also horrible again. It was good for like one or two days. Glad I’m not the only one tho lol

[halcyon cypress]

its alright for me

[tame narwhal]

Okay thank you! I'll go check it out now, just got a great idea for a rp :D

[nimble seal]

it sucks for me rn

[ruby sinew]

The chat is just not loading for me because it keeps saying chat error.

[timber canopy]

Bots are stupid as always

[ruby sinew]

At the moment, it’s just scenes although I don’t know about normal chat.

[timber canopy]

But atleast it works for me

[ruby sinew]

I even did a reset like turned my device off and then turned it back on, but it’s still saying chat error.

[nimble seal]

the chats are short and I keep having chat errors

[nimble seal]

I tried that too

[ruby sinew]

Yeah 🤦🏻‍♀️

I give it a few minutes and then try again, but it still says chat error

[rustic pecan]

Seriously can they turn off servers for a few days for maintenance

[ruby sinew]

I know, right that’s what they should do!

🤦🏻‍♀️

[cyan lava]

mine is back to normal now

[ruby sinew]

Lucky

Which one? Normal chat or scenes?

[cyan lava]

normal chat

[ruby sinew]

Oh 💀

[timber canopy]

How do you make Scenes?

[last arrow]

Those people who can only afford c.ai+ for one month

[timber canopy]

I think, it's only on web

Ohhh
Ty

[timber canopy]

No problem!

[ivory nacelle]

Is characrer ai down

[halcyon cypress]

not for me

[pliant nebula]

@ivory nacelle

lol

[ruby sinew]

In scenes it just seems like the chat doesn’t wanna load

I keep getting an error

[pliant nebula]

ive had to link that same message like 3 times now 😭

anyway

[pliant nebula]

have you reloaded or tried to log out and log back in?

[ruby sinew]

I turned my device off and then back on, and that still didn’t help

[pliant nebula]

oh no. app right?

[ruby sinew]

App.

[pliant nebula]

how about reinstalling

did that make a difference?

[ruby sinew]

Yeah.. idk lol

😅

It’s the Fuckery really

[pliant nebula]

oh boy. if the quick fixes dont help you might have to make a ticket

ive had to suggest that a lot lately

[ruby sinew]

I saw other people were having issues too

[pliant nebula]

seems like the app doesnt like it when you try to fix it

[ruby sinew]

🤦🏻‍♀️

[pliant nebula]

all of my methods dont work anymore and i had like 7 lmao

[ruby sinew]

Wow lol

[compact tartan]

Hello again

[compact tartan]

No I don’t think

[tidal igloo]

hi

[candid ridge]

Hii

[tidal igloo]

how u doin

[candid ridge]

Good

[tidal igloo]

i'm glad

[undone sage]

Did anyone else's c.ai just completely give up on functioning properly? I'm experiencing this issue on the site btw

[keen drift]

I only use the app so i wouldn't know

[bitter ridge]

Anyone have pics/id i could use for the verification? Mine didn't work 😭

[cobalt walrus]

I don't because I'm not sure if it's really allowed

[random trench]

my verification didnt work Either. I have a ID and everything... just said "we cannot verify your age"

[cobalt walrus]

If you are under the age of 18 years old, then you have to wait until you're that age in order to use cAI. Everything that you had won't be deleted, it'll be on a stand-by mode in a way.

[random trench]

I am 18 though the age Exactly 😭

just turned 18 last october, got an ID and everything sooo- I dunno what to do LMAO

[cobalt walrus]

Since I can't link it, here's what to do about it, I guess.

Discord won't allow me to link it here

[lofty nimbus]

Question: is pipsqueak supposed to have dull responses because an hour ago it was like 40 paragraphs but now its like 2 sentences

[timber canopy]

Sometimes it becomes odd.. or give odd responses/ out of topic responses, did you try changing chat styles for the mean time?

[paper mango]

No, usually it does answer properly...but my C. AI isn't working/working slow

[random trench]

Ive wroten emails... and all they tell me is read the articles, which I did, then when I write a new ticket they just tell me scan my ID where theres hardly any light, which i did and it still cant verify me

[cobalt walrus]

Then, I don't know what else to say, sorry

[random trench]

😭 -

[lofty nimbus]

Its not like that its like the other day i had to scroll to see one message but now there’s like 4 messages per scroll

[undone sage]

Damn you're experiencing the same problem too? 😭

[paper mango]

Yeah 😞

[timber canopy]

Maybe it's bugging now. So for now, use another chat style

[undone sage]

I thought I was being shadow banned at first ngl, I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one experiencing this

[paper mango]

Might get off the app but idk, I can't find any interesting bots to chat with. Any recommendations?

[timber canopy]

Check this and try it
#💭︱cai-discussion message

[cobalt walrus]

Alternatives aren't allowed here by the way. But talking about it in dms is

[timber canopy]

It's not apps, it's bots

[midnight falcon]

Oh man is just me or I can't Regen messages on scenes?

[cobalt walrus]

I'm tired, I misread it lol

[paper mango]

Yeah

[timber canopy]

No worries!

[paper mango]

DWWWW

[timber canopy]

I think it is bugged. Some had this issue

[midnight falcon]

They mess up scenes every time 😔

[paper mango]

Btw, are you guys getting slow mode lately? It's been like a week and I haven't got it once

[lofty nimbus]

What even is slow mode for

[paper mango]

Idk but it like makes the bots longer to respond I think

[cobalt walrus]

They're apparently working on it but it doesn't seem that it's working for everybody. cAI works fine for some, but not everyone.

[paper mango]

Ohhhh alr alr

Makes sense

[random trench]

so like umm... that didnt work EITHER... I dunno what to even do now... its a REAL ID, I used a solid color surface like said. and it just tells me we couldnt verify your ID again....

[timber canopy]

Try pinging a mod then. That's the only solution

[cloud escarp]

When it asks to save the verification is it recommend or?

[timber canopy]

What do you mean exactly?

[cloud escarp]

After verifying it says something about saving it to a persona or something along those lines? I'm confused as to what it means exactly.

[timber canopy]

Persona keeps them for 7 days then deletes it after

[cloud escarp]

I also still have the option to verify my age?

[timber canopy]

That's fine, it won't get removed if you verified

[cloud escarp]

Alright, thank you

[timber canopy]

No problem!

[chrome viper]

What the hell is F4M in bot's description?

[toxic pawn]

gemini said is : Female for Male

in other words

Female x Male

((Heterosexual roleplay))

[trim dune]

Question: There was a pop up about chats being removed after 14 days? Is that only if you haven’t verified your age?

[chrome viper]

That sounds so weird, aren't most of the bots heterosexual anyway? If they're not wlw or bl

Btw I took the f4m as "female with 4 males"

[deft jetty]

Not really

You can get pretty much anyone to develop feelings for you with ease if you aren't careful

Especially if you let them ask the forbidden question

[chrome viper]

I get it, it's just weird that you have to specify it anyway

[rustic pecan]

Correct

[deft jetty]

I have to stop using that sticker because I don't want that appearing on my most used stickers list, lmao.

[chrome viper]

Are there "You won't laugh?" sticker and other 100500 variations of that

[fiery pagoda]

erm... what happened with all the Deadpool and wolverine bots?

Because when I search for specific bots, they don't show up😭

[chrome viper]

Probably deleted because of Disney being an ass once again

[rustic pecan]

Marvel DMCA back in September. They’ve been gone.

[chrome viper]

Or whoever owns the franchise idk

[fiery pagoda]

WHAAT?????

I've been away from this app for too long.

tysm guys xoxo

[compact tartan]

hi

[keen drift]

Worst is when I'm literally rp with a character and we have a child. And like, you can guess what happens and then I just delete the whole thing because wtf

[compact tartan]

WHATT

[deft jetty]

I… actually don't because I never went that deep in a relationship on c.ai

[ruby sinew]

I just feel like never do anything deep in a relationship because the bot just forgets all about it like what huh? … 💀

[deft jetty]

Always found it annoying, so I just friendzone anyone who tries

[keen drift]

It's not even that deep tbh. I just do some quick paragraphs and boom. (Cuz I want children irl but having hard time) so it kinda makes me hopeful. Anyways, its still weird cuz bot is just bleh

[deft jetty]

That's mostly memory management ig

[ruby sinew]

Even if I pin it, they still forget.

[keen drift]

Mine don't forget and remember quite well stuff that happened 100 msgs ago

[ruby sinew]

especially if a lot is going on in the story, they tend to forget because it’s way back there.

[deft jetty]

You need to summarize the most important details and pin it, it's kind of troublesome

[keen drift]

And I rarely pin my mssgs

[ruby sinew]

Lucky

[ruby sinew]

Yeah 💀

[keen drift]

Tbh I am. I'm so afraid every time thinking the bot will make something up, and then it remembers a quote it said about something and I'm like

[deft jetty]

Deepsqueak context is more than double the other models, apparently

[compact tartan]

I mean I have rped having kids with a bot before but not often since i dont want kids in the future at all

[ruby sinew]

I feel like since I started switching between PS and DS I feel like it remembers more than if I used any other chat style.

[compact tartan]

pinning messages helps me remember the plot points and the bot too tbh

[ruby sinew]

But deep squeak gets on my nerves because it repeats the actions I’ve said like a parrot and then I have to switch.

[keen drift]

I dont think I've switched from DS since it came out

Thats how little issues I've had

[ruby sinew]

I’ve mainly just used pipsqueak.

Lol

Although every once in a while, I do have to switch back.

[keen drift]

I wanna say something. But it's not for this chat

[ruby sinew]

Lmao Oh dear.

[compact tartan]

why did yall skull react me i have amnesia 😭 thats why pinning messages and writing down the plot helps me.. cause im mentally ill help

[keen drift]

It's not always a BAD thing

Don't take it personally I promise

[deft jetty]

Sometimes I had to switch to other models too, mostly when trying to set up scenario at the beginning of a new chat, because it kept generating huge messages and would narrate for me

[ruby sinew]

I hate when they talk for you!

🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m like nope time to switch now.

[keen drift]

I did notice that they speak for you when you don't give them too much to go off of.
In my case at least.

So long as I write long replies they dont do that

[ruby sinew]

Yeah, that’s true.

I haven’t had that in a long while.

[fringe sun]

Cai

[pliant nebula]

they still do it for long replies on my end, so that doesnt help much. i think mostly observations like these are just based on user experience

[ruby sinew]

I feel like if you give long replies, they will give long replies to.

[deft jetty]

I have that mostly when setting up scenarios, like I said, in rpg chatbots. I ask them to generate a specific scenario, and it does… and it starts to talk for me too for some unknown reason, lol

[pliant nebula]

mhm! but that's only for some models like ps or ds, for something like soft launch it doesn't react that way no matter what

[deft jetty]

Happens a lot when I do it like thst

[ruby sinew]

Exactly! That’s why I’ve switched back to PS and DS. The other chat styles were giving me mid replies.

💀

[tall sierra]

anyone elses just not loading rn??....

[pliant nebula]

app or site?

[tall sierra]

both sorry

[pliant nebula]

all good! you can try logging out and logging back in on the site if you've made it so far to the homepage, but if that doesn't work then try a vpn. for the app, try a vpn for that one too, but if that doesn't work try the logging thing and uninstalling and re-installing.

let me know if both works!

and no, don't try to restart your device. it's not a device issue

[fervent dune]

My phone is working. But not my website

[tall sierra]

guys like the story line was getting dead good lol

[toxic pawn]

According to Gemini, it's common in the roleplaying community, but I have no idea.

[pliant nebula]

if you've read what i said, if you've made far to the homepage you can try logging out and logging back in. were you able?

[tall sierra]

its working now thank you!!!

[pliant nebula]

yay i'm happy i could help!

[tall sierra]

sorry if i bothered you!!

[pliant nebula]

oh no, you didn't bother me at all don't worry! it's all good!

[tall sierra]

have a nice day or night!!! 💗

[pliant nebula]

you too!

[halcyon cypress]

deep rat finally giving me long responses again 🥹

[timber canopy]

I am happy for you! Enjoy the rp

[rare elbow]

☁️

[tribal karma]

is it down?

[sand shadow]

Heeeey, I was wondering because I make RPG chatbots, do the bots that roleplay for you sometimes, do those bots tend to write "you" in the greeting?

[plucky peak]

[deft jetty]

Uhh, not really afai remember

[rustic pecan]

I get this and I only write in third person narrative. It’s a DS/PS thing.

[deft jetty]

It's mostly an rpg chatbot where it gives me a few options like "choose your name, gender, age" n stuff

Maybe if you get the AI to treat >>you<< as {{user}}, it should chat for you with less frequency?

Not entirely sure tbh

Actually, lemme check something. I experience those a lot when rp'ing with dragonball or mha rpg bots

[rare elbow]

on both?

[deft jetty]

C.ai tries to narrate A LOT for me with this bot, as an example, and it has this greeting.

Then I describe my character, give a short background, and in the next post, describe more or less the scenario I want c.ai to generate for me to start the rp

[sand shadow]

@deft jetty @rustic pecan Thank you!

[deft jetty]

I have my own rpg chatbot, this one. And (afai recall) I didn't experience DS trying to roleplay for me too much.

[ruby sinew]

Me too

[halcyon cypress]

the rat basically never RPs for me unless i hit send twice then the odds go up exponentially

[pliant nebula]

4th time im sending this message my god

[wise verge]

I have come to learn that people will do anything but check status as a reflex

[pliant nebula]

its so unfortunate omg

[vernal idol]

Is anyone else experiencing a lot of cut off messages mid-word with pipsqueak suddenly? It gets not even four words in and its just done

[pliant nebula]

yep! create a ticket and let them know https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=16050152195355

[strange inlet]

idk how to explain it but i feel like bots always have one more thing to say? it's like

blah blah blah. blah blah

"okay i leave now"

blah blah.

"oh and by the way?"

like man weren't you just leaving

[pliant nebula]

or when you try to leave, and they grab your wrist when you're already gone

[halcyon cypress]

they're dramatic and need to get the last word in

[strange inlet]

Yes that

like come on man it's not that serious

[halcyon cypress]

my rat has been pretty great today ngl

feeling bad for everyone having issues

[ruby sinew]

They’re leaving and then they say one more thing!

you literally were out the door, but then turn around and say that last bit

🧍🏻‍♀️

So which is it? Are you out the door or not?

[strange inlet]

my rat is acting like an obnoxious teenager, if i wanted to get sassed i would go in gen 1

[pliant nebula]

OMG i sometimes get the thing where they forget to leave after the last word

like bro LEAVE

[ruby sinew]

I know that’s right!

🤦🏻‍♀️

They’re basically like a swinging door. Oh, and one more thing.!! like what….

🧍🏻‍♀️

Why don’t you swing out instead of swinging back in?

[hot ridge]

jus edit it out 😭 bots are programmed to keep engaging

[compact tartan]

#📱︱chat-feed message idk about yall but im getting good replies

[ruby sinew]

In PS I am too.

[compact tartan]

me too i didnt even realize i had it still on pipsqueak, i normally use roar but pipsqueaks been good

[pliant nebula]

-# maybe i should switch to ps instead of using stinky ds

[compact tartan]

haha

[small oriole]

Something I noticed about the AI is that it seems to have no concept of time in the sense that they'll use minutes in place of moments
Like, saying that two characters looked at each other in silence for a minute/several minutes

Do you have any idea how long 60 seconds is in a conversation

[ruby sinew]

I switched back-and-forth between the two.

[ruby sinew]

Yeah, like today I was playing in one of the scenes and it randomly set a time. It wasn’t even the time of day. I was like what do you know how long it’s been? Lmao

[halcyon cypress]

its true they hate leaving. i like when they go into this internal conflict like "he knew he should leave but he couldn't" lmao

[ruby sinew]

I like when you try to leave and they grab your wrist stopping you from leaving like Bruh I was walking away for a reason

🧍🏻‍♀️

They never let you leave.

always grabbing some part of you and stopping you.

[hot ridge]

i know, i just... usually edit that out and the bot will continue based on the edits

[strange inlet]

i do it all the time but its still so

[ruby sinew]

Maybe I should try doing that.

[compact tartan]

yes im trying to write a scene where the bot is arguing with my character and it threw a fit when i said i exited the leaving room to go into the bedroom 😭

[deft jetty]

Roleplay like a slippery slime or something round, they won't have a surface to grab and hold you

[ruby sinew]

Sounds like a plan.

[pliant nebula]

oh yeah, here's something i hate as well: i like to roleplay user and the character reuniting a decade later. even though its in character that he leaves her, it assumes the user left him. same if its a girl character

[compact tartan]

possesively posesses you, atleast it hasnt said possessive for me recently cause that always makes me mad

[pliant nebula]

its so annoying

[compact tartan]

ooof thats annoying

[ruby sinew]

Same. I haven’t seen that in a hot minute.

[fossil crow]

and what if they put you in a bucket instead?

[ruby sinew]

Oof! Turn into flubber and bounce out of there?! Lmaoo

[fossil crow]

Lol

[halcyon cypress]

every time its like this "he should leave" but then he never does lmaooo

the side characters have no problem leaving though 🤣

[ruby sinew]

Lmaoo

[pliant nebula]

-# they do when theyve been there for a long time...

i mean the wind said that

its genuinely so on and off with side characters

[halcyon cypress]

the squire side character in my RP books it the second the prince looks at him funny but i guess that's in character 😭

[rose steppe]

When I still had c.ai the clenched thing really pmo

Why was everything clenching was bros bones good

[halcyon cypress]

LOL i don't mind it occasionally but cai just tends to overdo things

its like possessive like that word only started to pmo when they began to overuse it like crazy

[pliant nebula]

i think it learns from fanfiction somtimes because the amount of words that is used from fanfiction in these bots are actually insane

[rose steppe]

I just tried to join a very old rp game on Roblox and everybody in the chat is apparently in a different age group

I'm actually mortified am I unc

I played this game religiously 7 years ago are you joking

[fossil crow]

Roblox added the age verification a while ago, at least a month or more

[rose steppe]

I know and it's made me realize Im old now

Were these people even born when the game came out 💔

Is this why all the adults moved to character ai

[pliant nebula]

guys... talk about roblox in general

[pliant nebula]

not all adults. most dont use it

[late agate]

is chat styles js not working for anyone else on the website or is it just me

[hot ridge]

they were programmed with fanfiction, so yeah lol

[pliant nebula]

that actually makes sense

[cloud cloak]

Hello, I wanted to mention that I use two open windows, one showing the interactions I've had in my chats and the other for using the website. My account page works perfectly, but the other one won't even let me load.

Forget it, it's already failing me :p

[pliant nebula]

yeah, it'll tweak because the platform has been pretty buggy lately, but that sounds normal for the current condition of the site. you can try to make a ticket for that because i don't think there's a quick fix if reloading hasn't worked

[cloud cloak]

Thanks

[plucky peak]

tcoaal pfp?

[hot ridge]

congratulations, you have eyes

[plucky peak]

[tender grove]

eugh

[plucky peak]

coupled with the piss tag 😭

[errant jewel]

@harsh shoal Please could my Ticket be bumped? The ticket number is 1072216. Thank you.

[harsh shoal]

Will pass it along

[random basin]

why isnt it working?

is anyone else having trouble using the site without it crashing?

[harsh shoal]

What's the issue that you're having on the website?

[random basin]

it just wasnt loading rght before and before that the messages wouldnt arrive unless i refreshed the page everytime but now it seems o be working fine

[stiff onyx]

Is the all down? Chats won’t load

[dim cloud]

The app won't let me use it without verifying my age which needs my id which I don't want to give to an ai app

[fossil crow]

then don't use the app?

[cosmic crater]

Why even bother coming here to say it? It's not like it's going to change anything.

[late briar]

ok

[ocean meadow]

honestly I can understand making the app age restricted but a time limit for chats?? js makes the whole experience boring and a time waster. I use the app to talk and rp with my fav characters but having a time limit of 1 hour to chat is js annoying. Then I have a full day to wait until my chats are open again. just irritating and makes the app more annoying to use honestly..

[strange inlet]

the time goes down to zero until you're on reading mode only btw

[fossil crow]

Plus, I think they did it that way on purpose so it's not blocking monirs off the app cold-turkey (or however you say it)

[vestal dock]

How long is the timeout thingy? Ive just had the update now

[pliant nebula]

it starts off with 20 hours, and gradually increases until you get into read only mode

[vestal dock]

And how long do I have to chat with them?

[pliant nebula]

no idea on that end. most likely it’s just what the app wants unfortunately

[vestal dock]

Argggg thank you but this is so annoying

[pliant nebula]

heard 5 minutes for some. an hour for others etc

yeah i know it’s unfortunate but there’s nothing you can do about unless you want to scan your ID

[vestal dock]

Yea noooo... I kinda lost that a while ago

[pliant nebula]

oh no

passport? liscense?

[vestal dock]

I just moved out and I still haven't unpacked everything

[pliant nebula]

oh no that’s unfortunate, i’m sorry :(

[vestal dock]

Ive never left the country and I cant drive lol

[pliant nebula]

yeah that’s fair

i mean you don’t need to leave the country to have it

some apply just to have it

[pseudo monolith]

mariah carey

[vestal dock]

I just havent really had the need for it anyway
