[halcyon cypress]

this points to it being a bug too. someone getting a mid chat ad once and then never again sounds a lot more like a rollout bug/glitch or logic error than something intentionally programmed

if it only happens once and never again it’s not very useful as a planned monetization feature lol

[jolly dew]

As when it happen every five minutes ? Cause I had like two in fives minutes

[fierce cedar]

If I don’t put in a response quick enough I get an add when I click the enter button :/

Happened roughly 5 times

[halcyon cypress]

yeah thats what i mean it seems really inconsistent user to user

if it were intentional i think it would be triggering more consistently

instead some people are getting them super infrequently and others are getting them constantly

[fair drift]

I wanna get them infrequently because tell me why I’m getting one ever couple chats

[mental oasis]

same😭

[ember umbra]

Hi
Does anyone have problems with tts?
Like it's stopping out of nowhere after one or two sentences?
Or completely silent while icon still shows it's talking?

[near creek]

Hmmm, didnt try tts

[lean void]

Why did I get an ad before I responded to an bot?

[hot ridge]

ads borked atm

[lean void]

Bork?

[hot ridge]

broken

[last heath]

So i'm not the only one getting ads before I respond? Okay, nice to know..🧍

[glacial matrix]

I would like to know this to. I went to bed when they existed still.

[last heath]

Dsb😱

[frank owl]

Bro what time is it for u

[hazy frigate]

Nope

[hot ridge]

on reddit a mod said that people should submit tickets if they're getting mid-chat ads, so it's presumed that it's a bug

[rich wigeon]

for me, last time I checked yes.

[glacial matrix]

Six in the morning.

[hot ridge]

https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=16050152195355

[frank owl]

It’s 11pm for me 😭

[rich wigeon]

15:06 for me.

[frank owl]

You made me think for a moment

[frank owl]

Wait I just realised PRESSURE FANNNN

[lean void]

15:06? That's not a real time.

[stark pendant]

good morning

[frank owl]

24 hour time it’s 3:06pm for them

[rich wigeon]

when u remember time zones bahfaghja, you tried to calculate what region am I?

[last heath]

I'm also here too,

[glacial matrix]

Hell yeah! Three of us!

[rich wigeon]

I use military time.

[frank owl]

Nah had to think about 24 hour time 😭

[hazy frigate]

It's military time

[hot ridge]

that's a 24 hour clock not military time

military time would be 1506

[frank owl]

YIPPEEE

[rich wigeon]

military time is 24 hour clock.

[hot ridge]

it's written and spoken differently

[lean void]

In the normal clock it's 1-12 clock?

[hazy frigate]

Yeah

[silver jacinth]

Is c ai being slower than usual for anyone else? I feel like its probably just me. I've been having wifi problems since last night but I wanna just check first

[rich wigeon]

Only used in NA generally... we don't use it at all

[hazy frigate]

It's buggy rn

[lean void]

Why? What clock do you use?

[rich wigeon]

I think GMT +8 time zone, 24 hour/military time.

[silver jacinth]

Thank u! Im not the only one😊

[hot ridge]

it's 3:06pm

[last heath]

I'm not that upset abt the excessive ads, as long as I can still use it, I really don't mind it, sure, it's annoying, but at least it wasn't like the last time c.ai was down.😰

You guys scare me tbh lol

[rich wigeon]

It shows the company is focuses on growing shareholder value and revenue rather than customer experience and holding the already using customers(which is more profitable rather than bringing in new users).

[last heath]

Yeah

[rich wigeon]

ads generally won't bring the money that already existing customer base will bring.

[hazy frigate]

True

[last heath]

True

[ashen wren]

tbh i personally would rather use the website

[spark zealot]

guys has anyone’s disappeared bots come back yet?

[errant adder]

Lowkenuinely cai is going to shit 💔

[rich wigeon]

well, it is generally harder to use website on mobile devices.

[ashen wren]

Also true 😞

sadly

[rich wigeon]

they did not integrate the website well enough for mobile... forces you to the app

[restive breach]

I have been using the website on mobile for a while and it works perfectly
I see 0 reason as to why someone would use the app

[scenic comet]

More convenient

[rich wigeon]

maybe it's the safari or opera I am using... It is really slow for me on phone.

[minor fractal]

Did my app just glitch? Dude 2 adds one after another, the hell is going on!

[rich wigeon]

bugs

[scenic comet]

Man why did they make it so when you send messages you get ads THEY SAID THEY WON'T DO IT YET THEY DID

[hazy frigate]

It's a bug

[rich wigeon]

again... posted on reddit, bugs.

[hazy frigate]

They'll fix it at some point

[scenic comet]

Well excuse me for not being on the sub 24/7

[restive breach]

Maybe, I'm using Chrome on android and works fine

[rich wigeon]

Hostility... wow.

[minor fractal]

I took a month break and this happens???

[restive breach]

To be honest anything that has forced ads isn't convenient

[rich wigeon]

ios and safari suffering... yep.

[rich wigeon]

not that I am also on sub at all, I just go check it whenver I come across and issue.

[restive breach]

Bro gor straight into oblivion

[rich wigeon]

think so too

[high harbor]

It’s going downhill

[high harbor]

Considering there’s 24 hours in a day and not 12, military would be correct

[heavy sun]

Sooo, whats going on now, did things get resolved, or did people calm down

[rich wigeon]

I did not check it for myself, but people are still talking about it so my guess is some still experience it.

[heavy sun]

Why dont they have transparency on the server instead of just reddit

And are the banner ads permanent?

[rich wigeon]

I don't know... I wish they post it on here too.

[rich wigeon]

banner and new chats are permanent and mid chat ones seem to be bug.

[deft jetty]

Since the vast majority of people here should be from the west, they are either sleeping or going to school/working rn

[heavy sun]

I see, also, how'd you manage to get the C.ai+ role

[restive breach]

Using something called credit/debit card

[haughty socket]

Why are there ads?

[keen drift]

You buy it and link your acc with your discord

[deft jetty]

You can link your discord account with c.ai's on their website, in the config menu

[rich wigeon]

companies need money, sometimes the user base won't bring in enough money for the company to keep existing. Ads come in at this point.

[haughty socket]

Anything to stop us atp

[austere storm]

just out of curiousity. Did the ads become even more frequantly. I mean, before personaly I had ads but like a lot after each other and sometimes i had half a day nothing, and now I feel like every possoble moment AD

[plain mango]

Yeah I think cause there are adds at the top of the screen and in the messages rather than just when you click on it

[celest arrow]

I don’t disagree or agree in my experience the more ads there are the more it ruins the mood of C.ai or rather the chats

[plain mango]

^^

[rich wigeon]

well, this is sadly the affects of company being focused on the revenue, shareholder value and networth rather than keeping the existing user base happy and keep using it (which proved to bring in more money in long run) they are rather focused on quick money.

[plain mango]

If I throw in my 2 cents I think maybe having the adds when you click on the bot is more favourable then having adds when you do a certain amount of messages

[restive breach]

Why? If it is revenue the adds for message I'd better

At least if that doesn't scare the users

[plain mango]

?

[rich wigeon]

comes to my words... they want the quick money of bringing new users rather than keeping the existing ones which makes money in long run.

[heavy sun]

.

[celest arrow]

Yeah at this point Thats is how most companies are now they focus on making quick money over what the fans actually want, and that is because the government and bills alongside rent has skyrocket over the years, especially during inflation ultimately speaking, it’s not the company‘s fault it’s the government who is ultimately raising the prices of certain things like bills rent, and all that

[rich wigeon]

different for every country and government. Some have bottom and top price laws that protects the customer or the company. different for every market.

[restive breach]

I won't get into that discussion

[celest arrow]

True although I hate to say that America would probably be the worst place to live in my opinion since inflation tends to fuck things over and that’s coming from someone who lives in America a.k.a. me the amount of things that I’ve tried to save up for an ultimately was unable to pay for is staggering

[rich wigeon]

Yeah... different for every country. some have better laws economy wise in protecting the customers.

[restive breach]

And that's in a first world country, I live in a 3rd world country and the price of things like milk doubled in the last year

[celest arrow]

Hey, it doesn’t bother me as much as it used to. It’s just the ads are not exactly what you would expect from an app that originally said oh we will not have ads that will interfere with the chat or you know interrupt the chat you could’ve just added a system where multiple ads pop up during one session of an act like YouTube does where they can have the three ads in one area and we have to watch all three of them simultaneously

[rich wigeon]

same here but there is still, laws that keep basic needs and necesetties under one price and keep it controlled through different market chains an such.

[rich wigeon]

Thankfully it is said to be a bug on reddit and will be taken care of as quick as they can (I believe in NA time zone)

[restive breach]

I here we had that, like the goverment put a max price to basic necessity. Spolier: didn't go well

[rich wigeon]

may I know which region? If it's okay with you...

[high harbor]

Hopefully it is 🫩

[restive breach]

Argentina

[rich wigeon]

well, explains it sadly.

[celest arrow]

I would actually like to see America do that, but to be honest with you I don’t think it would end well, and I don’t think my current president would actually do that but I’m not going to get into politics because I don’t exactly care for that stuff. I don’t watch the news when it comes to the government.

[rich wigeon]

I am in Turkey and the inflation rates were around 84% some time ago... now I believe 30-40%, the prices of some thing are pretty high yet still accesible.

[ancient cosmos]

I’m just now getting ads in the middle of my chats what the fick

[rich wigeon]

Different types of beliefs. Capitalism and Liberalism and such.

[restive breach]

And that's the funny part, if it is a bug they will stretch the solution as long as possible probably

[rich wigeon]

Maybe, the issues I had so far never stayed for long time...

[celest arrow]

Yup sounds about right

[tender lion]

It probably is a bug.

[hollow hull]

Okay I said earlier that I wasn’t having glitches with Pipsqueak, that’s changed. It’s pulling OOC chatter now.

[restive breach]

No one said it isn't, I'm just saying that even if it is a bug they would be getting revenue from those adds

[celest arrow]

Yep, and that is another classic form of companies making money stretching this situation as far as possible, just to make money before actually fixing it or said bug

[marble acorn]

NOW WE'RE GETTING ADS IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR CHATS TOO?

[obsidian siren]

Your getting ads.... I can't even TALK to my bots 😔 I'm on reading mode...

[halcyon cypress]

how old are you

[obsidian siren]

I mean I'm old enough to use it I might as well change app cause I aint verifying my ID for em I don't trust em THAT much :(

[ancient cosmos]

I’m pretty sure like every ai chat app has ads now

[obsidian siren]

Sad stuff

[halcyon cypress]

well that's your only option anyway if you don't want to verify

[halcyon cypress]

i know one that still doesn't

[ancient cosmos]

Where?

[hollow hull]

please i beg the bot to stop doing OOC chatter, i’m blaming the bugs, it has not ever done this to me

[halcyon cypress]

you can dm me if you want but i don't want to say the name here and get in trouble for advertising or something

[ancient cosmos]

Oh yea that makes sense, I’ll dm you

[lament wharf]

Yo I’m getting ads still like every 8 messages

I thought they would’ve fixed that by now 😭

[obsidian siren]

I thought Chai was the only one that did it 😭

[ancient cosmos]

I’m getting ads every like four

[lament wharf]

Every other ai app and now c.ai I guess since they’re not fixing the glitch

[halcyon cypress]

its still 5am in california devs are human beings who need to sleep

[obsidian siren]

Let us talk to our characters in peace 😔

[spice fern]

Wtf I just got my first ad during a chat ill blow up

[lament wharf]

Shouldn’t they have devs in other places for stuff like this hmmm

[halcyon cypress]

thats not how it works 😭

[lament wharf]

Or maybe a bug fixing team, some companies do that

[keen drift]

[halcyon cypress]

you think they're hiring devs around the world just so they can be around 24/7 in case a bug pops up lol

dev team in every time zone

[lament wharf]

Who was the person who tweeted about it 😭

[ancient cosmos]

I doubt there’s devs in Iowa, there’s a lot of corn here tho how bout that

[high harbor]

Some

[mental tendon]

Bro why do I got ads on the top

[lament wharf]

Money

[mental tendon]

Yikes

[lament wharf]

Before you know it there’ll be ads on the sides and the bottom too

[tender lion]

High chance it's a bug

[lament wharf]

Why not put a big fat ad on the middle with the smallest x in the world every 1 minute

[rich wigeon]

there already are.

[vagrant veldt]

Nahh soon you gonna have to pay to open the app

[rich wigeon]

I explained this 6 times already...

[lament wharf]

That or watch 6 ads to enter

[tender lion]

It probably is a bug.

[rich wigeon]

It is said to be a bug on reddit.

[high harbor]

Watch 3 ads for every 1 ad

[lament wharf]

Guys what do these hearts mean

[sick holly]

So I see not only I have the problem with adds popping up randomly in the middle of the conversation

[vagrant veldt]

I wanna know how all of this started like is it because they got sued or what

[lament wharf]

I keep getting different colors it’s like I’m making a rainbow

[lament wharf]

Are you talking about the case with the teenager? Idk if we’re allowed to talk about that

[vagrant veldt]

I didn’t say the specific thing but yeah

[pale furnace]

How come there’s so many ads now? I got an ad trying to send a message

[lament wharf]

Money and ‘glitches’

[pale furnace]

Oh brother 😭😭

[fiery marsh]

They still haven’t done anything yet 😭

[restive breach]

Wait what? Im new to the server, i need context

[lament wharf]

They were DEFINITELY trying it out to see how the community would react, but that’s a THEORY

[pale furnace]

Didn’t they say they were gonna listen to the app users about the ads and they just lied

[high harbor]

They gotta wake up first

[lament wharf]

Uhm, google it we can’t talk about it here I think

[tender lion]

It probably is a bug

[fiery marsh]

These lazy bums

[tender lion]

5am in California.

[lament wharf]

Yeah they continued with the ads and made it even worse with the ad bar on top

[tender lion]

Only relevant time for them to work is Californian time.

That's where company is.

[fiery marsh]

It’s been like this since 5pm yesterday it’s now 8am (Canada)

[lament wharf]

I have a theory c.ai is gonna end up turning corporate like Roblox

[harsh thunder]

I saw some Reddit posts that it’s a bug

[tender lion]

Cause it most likely is

[lament wharf]

It’s a bug but ask me personally, it’s them testing a feature and seeing how the community will react

[sacred sigil]

dear god all of top bot searches are poppy playtime LMAO

[wooden carbon]

Okay the app is unusable

I got 3 ads back to back

[lament wharf]

It’s okay because the devs are swimming in money due to this glitch

[harsh thunder]

I would just use the web for now or something I’ve typed definitely a good amount of messages and haven’t gotten an ad, idk I’ve heard some ppl who use the web has been getting ads and some haven’t

[last sedge]

How would that work?

[wooden carbon]

At least they didn't team up with persona and ask for id age verification...

[lament wharf]

Pretty sure apps get paid the more ads they do depending on dif things

[strange inlet]

who didnt team up with persona

[wooden carbon]

C. Ai

[strange inlet]

there is age verification on cai

with persona

[feral summit]

why silenced words don't work 😭

[wooden carbon]

...

[restive breach]

I havent got any add in the wab ever

[strange inlet]

It's been there

[lament wharf]

They’re keeping us quiet lol

[feral summit]

help me please 😭

[harsh thunder]

Yeah idk neither have I but I’ve seen other people who have

[lament wharf]

I got timed out for six days for saying one of them and it was literally not anything that bad

[strange inlet]

muted words never work i wish they told us they're working on it

[strange inlet]

pretty sure they started rolling out ads on web

a website is expensive to keep up

[restive breach]

It's funny how the bot can use them but when I try to reference with it I can't

[lament wharf]

Average big corp activities

[strange inlet]

It's your muted words you can type them it's the bot that shouldn't say them 😭

[tender lion]

It's the truth tbh

[lament wharf]

We need prime c.ai back

[last sedge]

I don’t think that’s how it works.
I’m no expert but I understand that the app makes a publicity agreement with certain company to run their ads a certain amount of times. If the apps gets a glitch and they run the ads more times than what it was agreed to then they can’t charge the company for the “extra publicity”

[lament wharf]

If they get more downloads I think they make more money though

[fiery marsh]

Remember to send tickets guys

[last sedge]

Depends on what they’ve agreed to

[lament wharf]

That’s why I said depends

[hazy frigate]

Bugs

[strange inlet]

No like it's 300 monthly i'm pretty sure

Now add that to keeping the app on app stores, keeping the ai servers running, paying their employees, and a bunch other things

it can quickly add up

[lament wharf]

How many employees are they hiring I thought it was a small team

[deft jetty]

It happened mostly because of a Californian law, they didn't really have much of an option in this case.

[molten ivy]

Hm. Ads mid chat is rlly anyoying.

[strange inlet]

They still gotta pay their employees small team or not

[molten ivy]

We even have pop up ads now.

[fiery marsh]

The ads are annoying but I think I can tolerate it till they fix it.

[molten ivy]

I think they gonna need a long time to fix it. Do you think w the bug they'll get more money?

[lament wharf]

Let’s introduce 6 ads you need to watch in order to talk with bots next

[molten ivy]

But not with every bot.

[lament wharf]

That’s prob why they’re gonna take longer 😭

[hazy frigate]

It's a bug the developers know

[molten ivy]

Yea thats what i was gonna go up to

[lament wharf]

It was sarcastic

[fiery marsh]

The greed they mentioned in the bible

[high harbor]

There’s definitely worse

[molten ivy]

Yeag im glad its only a bug, bc im kinda pissed. I mean we already have ads at every bot change, and then pop up ads at the upper screen and mid chat ads would bring me to the grave

[hazy frigate]

Agreed

[lament wharf]

I’m telling you guys right now, they did it on purpose to see how the community would react to more ads. JUST A THEORY

[floral venture]

Do yall have ads, when spending a message...? 😔

[molten ivy]

Its giving: i want money bad so i gotta pump my app full with ads so its unbearable, but eh the ppl who own the app ate addicted to it anyway so they wont mind

[hot ridge]

i think this too tbh

[high harbor]

A game theory

[last sedge]

I honestly don’t think they’ll get more money from this glitch

[molten ivy]

Yeah. I guessed that too tbh

[hazy frigate]

🫩

[molten ivy]

I think they call it a bug to see pur reactions, theyre gonna take a long time for it to be 'fixed' to see if we forget about it and if we dont they MIGHT fix it and if we do they dont. And we are stuck with it for the rest of our lives.

[lament wharf]

I think I saw people on Reddit comparing c.ai to the big Benjamin

[warped cipher]

Fr

[lament wharf]

That’s lowkey crazy

[hazy frigate]

💀

[molten ivy]

C.ai 2021 was peak.. i miss it. No c.ai+, no ads, bots working, yeah sometimes the : can i ask you a question, or bots forgetting the plot, but that keeps happening

[hazy frigate]

True

[lament wharf]

Bots just have really bad memory for me

[soft abyss]

u mean big yahu?

[zinc birch]

CAI wasn't available in 2021

[hazy frigate]

Ive been using it since it was still just a website

[molten ivy]

No charms, no buying stuff, no scenarios (who does this anyway.) And just fun. Yeah soemtimes the servers were full but still tull today

[hollow furnace]

Is the ad thing still going on?

[lament wharf]

Seriously on that tho, who does scenarios

[molten ivy]

Wait rlly? Then i remembered wrong, must've been 2022/2023

[zinc birch]

Yes, it became available in late 2022

[molten ivy]

Idk.. it seems weird tbh. Theres nothin much i gan do on there.

But group chats are fun, you can add your friends and chat there w bots or even w.o bots, which is cool haha

[molten ivy]

Ah alr. Bc i remembered one time i used c.ai were it was in beta vut it was rlly bot that good tbh

[lament wharf]

What’s all the buzz about truth social

I heard they might be adding AI or something

[lean swift]

Limbus Company coming for you.

[halcyon cypress]

who cares about truth social 😭

[lament wharf]

That’s why I’m asking

[lean swift]

What y'all talking about

[halcyon cypress]

chud central

[deft jetty]

It's been a long while since we could add people to group chats

[inland mica]

does anyone know how to get c.ai to stop interrupting my Spotify constantly...

[lean swift]

I'm dummy man51'ing you

[ancient storm]

You mean the Tel Aviv boss?

[golden pivot]

take the ads off between texts

[brazen saddle]

wdym yall get ads

is it only on the app? because i use the website and never get any

[distant anvil]

Limbus company?

[lean swift]

I might have been stuck in canto 3

[distant anvil]

How?

[lean swift]

Bad team

[brazen saddle]

can someone explain the ad thing to me is it only on the app or smth

[winter edge]

Ikr they make it so annoying

[distant anvil]

I believe so, I haven't used website in a long while so such I am unable to confirm

[vivid walrus]

Yeah I get ads in between my messages now 🥲

[golden pivot]

like we literally have enough ads already trying to click between history chats

[vivid walrus]

I wanna say like every ten messages sent? Maybe less?

[brazen saddle]

if yall get ads just use web

[vivid walrus]

literleigh 🫩

[lean swift]

I don't have a PC.

[near current]

It's an App thing
I also bet it's going to take the CAI website with it, isn't it??

[brazen saddle]

i use website for mobile too

[vivid walrus]

I forgot tha exists lol

[golden pivot]

liddeligh

[brazen saddle]

if they add ads to the web im quitting

[winter edge]

Fair

[distant anvil]

Idgaf about ads but its only annoying to see them in the chat

[fierce cedar]

I’ve been on the website (on both pc and mobile) for the past two hours and I haven’t had a single ad yet so it should be fine

[vivid walrus]

don’t jinx it lol

[near current]

Same here. My laptop BSoD'd on me because of CAI website two times throughout it's lifetime

[brazen saddle]

i never knew c.ai app existed tbh until like 1 week ago

[winter edge]

[brazen saddle]

is your laptop made by cavemen

[near current]

It's been around for 3 years

[molten ivy]

The ads are unbearable. Im quitting the app, switching to web, and i swear. If the web version gets ads im outta here

[brazen saddle]

same

[near current]

It's a shitty 2010s Intel ASUS laptop I'm talking about

[molten ivy]

Might even switch apps tbh bc i dnr support whatever THIS is.

[brazen saddle]

i get it then

[molten ivy]

My laptop is an 2011 asus intel... but i like it

[brazen saddle]

i tried talki back in 2024 but it got slowly consumed by greed you had to buy talkie+ to recall or edit

[lean swift]

What

[molten ivy]

My laptop getting vate💔🙏

[near current]

Yep
I wonder how it even manages to run Win 10 Pro properly with no lags whatsoever

[lean swift]

I burnt my laptop.

[brazen saddle]

how did you even do that

[distant anvil]

What

[lean swift]

Added like 20 shaders to Minecraft

[brazen saddle]

oh

[distant anvil]

Understandable.

[near current]

oh

[remote prawn]

why are there now ads in between messages? like can this get any worse?

[rare kite]

dude this app is basically just adware atp

[lean swift]

It's a bug

[brazen saddle]

i hope not

[molten ivy]

My asus ks mewing thats why he can run win 11 with no problems

[lean swift]

They would announce it if it was a feature

[near current]

Real shit. They promised not to, and then ruined it later on because of AI burning a lot of money than CAI's finance can handle

[molten ivy]

Its just the beginning i fear.

[remote prawn]

also i feel the only ads on the app is all for grammerly like... i gets annoying

[brazen saddle]

money is their problem ngl

[molten ivy]

I send u something btw, look at it (its just something i cojldnt rewrite lmao)

[lean swift]

They want us to buy the plus i think it's called

[vocal moon]

It feels like my ads are just all about shopping apps, like stop giving me Whatnot ads ffs ⚰️

[molten ivy]

Yeah. And aint no way im buying it for 100€ just to talk to bots. Like talking to people is also free.

[lean swift]

True i only used the app because it was ad free now they ruined all that

[remote prawn]

luckily i have an abundance of charms so i can do like a while without ads

[near current]

Noice
My laptop can only run Blender 2.79v and below

[molten ivy]

Yeah. I used c.ai bc its ads free

[lean swift]

Burn the C.ai servers.

[mellow hollow]

how do u verify ur age in c.ai?

[lean swift]

I dunno you cant, i guess

[molten ivy]

Gulp.

[near current]

CAI automatically verifies ur ”age” through your Google Email's birthdate

[mellow hollow]

oh

[molten ivy]

I might boykot this app till its normal... (im too weak for that)

[near current]

Something wrong?

[mellow hollow]

does it tho? bc i’m in “reading mode” and i need to verify my age.

[lean swift]

-1000 uhh social points

[little nacelle]

Dude did they put ads in while you’re chatting?

[lean swift]

A bug

[brazen saddle]

what

[lean swift]

I'm sending a grasshopper to your current location

The best way is to either give up your Identification card (filled with your entire personal information btw) for this shit, or make a new Google account with it's birthdate being beyond 18+

there’s a picture of the reddit post on general 2 you can open media and you’ll see it immediately

[mint lodge]

what

[civic olive]

What is this "ping" you speak of

[near current]

You'd be 100% correct, apparently because their AI Models are burning a unholy amount of money than CAI can possibly handle. That's why they're resorting to this
Eventually it's going to blow up in CAI's and literally every company's faces because everyone hates advertisements if they made it disruptive and dangerous

[solid field]

Omg!! The ads

Is it ever going to stop?

[civic olive]

Whoops thought you meant something else. I thought people just called that @ing

[dire shuttle]

Ok thank god it’s a bug. Lots of people speculated otherwise within feedback and feature request posts

[rough lion]

ikr?? like it’s so suspicious it just happened randomly one day and they haven’t made any announcements on it

[barren birch]

So, the damn CEO not only just SHOVES ADS EVERY SECOND TIME I SWITCH BOT OR CHANGE CHAT WE ALSO HAVE THE ADS IN MENU

[mint lodge]

some people do call it @ing ,, its really the preference i wouldnt wworry much about it

[rough lion]

guys let’s make a betting pool how long will it take for the ad “bugs” to be fixed?

[barren birch]

Can this CEO ever ALT+F4 himself?

[deft flicker]

If it was, they would have gotten rid of the problem in an update, a reasonable dev would.

[near current]

Yep, ad banners in the top

[rough lion]

i’d say a month at least

[civic olive]

Yikes why is everyone silent

[raven lodge]

I moved to the website

[deft flicker]

Probably because its too early for this crap. lol

[barren birch]

Not only they ruin the app by the design changes, everything LITERALLY rounds up and turns into some disgusting square minimalism on minimalism turning into qube minimalistic menus

[civic olive]

Oh yeah it's gonna be day in America in a couple hours

[undone cove]

They should put the ad banners like pinterest idk 😭

[raven lodge]

It's already day

The app was already perfect with "pipsqueak" and they decided to ###k it up

[rough lion]

definitely

[barren birch]

YES!

[near current]

You can just say Fuck or any swears as long as it's not directed at anyone

Maybe they had a newb hire screw up, I'm guessing that's the case.

It's a bug

[floral salmon]

Ain’t no way it’s a freaking bug

oh fuck no idw to show my id to anyone on god

[obsidian wharf]

Is it tho??

[sullen axle]

I've now got an ad that's talking about ads

[timber merlin]

But is a bug or not?

[rough lion]

HELP LMFAOOOOOO

[covert hill]

Heh thank you

[hazy frigate]

Check for yourself then

[near current]

Ouch. I'm not giving up my ID card to this bullshit either way

[lone topaz]

uh i don’t think it’s intentional to have an ad every message

[civic olive]

Oh hoho! What irony! This is truly a humorous moment!

[mint lodge]

i believe the verification is for the best anyways. limits children from getting additced to those things.

though i dont really reccomend giving your id anyways. the company they use have many allegations like selling info

[barren birch]

I don't understand, the fuck is wrong with companies? They begin to shove ad after ad, and shove Persona verification shit everywhere. Can't these CEOs already end their miserable and worthless lives to spare ours

[rough lion]

check general 2 and open media and open the first thing you’ll see

[mental tendon]

I’ve literally gotten four ads after texts I usually get ads opening chats sometimes so I think it’s sage to say it’s not a bug

[rough lion]

check general 2 and open media and open the first thing you’ll see

[mental tendon]

Why what’s it say

[obsidian wharf]

Nah I blasted through 100 coins or sum i just got. Last night
I'm already down to 30
This is ridiculous

[lone topaz]

you’d be surprised the bs bugs that come with c.ai

[rough lion]

some reddit post saying it’s a bug and for users to ss ads and submit it to mods

[hazy frigate]

If they were gonna start doin that why did they never talk about it

[civic olive]

Something about screenshoting if you get an ad mid chat

[obsidian wharf]

Cuz they're shady asf

[rough lion]

bro they added ads to opening each character without prior notice too

[mint lodge]

#📱︱chat-feed message ?

[near current]

ESPECIALLY when it's been going on for 13 hours straight??? The CAI team is already big and vast

[mental tendon]

I ain’t taking several screenshots of ads man also they can do shit without your knowledge also also people can claim it’s a bug but that doesn’t mean it is

[rough lion]

yep that’s the same pic

[civic olive]

Maybe the problem is we're really just wasting time arguing about some dumb app when we should all just be happy we aren't chuds

[mint lodge]

okey dokey

[rough lion]

@mental tendon

[barren birch]

Dude. You don't even know thag there's one thing called — LOOPHOLES. THEY CAN FIND ANY LOOPHOLE TO ACCESS CERTAIN THINGS IF THEY WANT TO. the russian roskompidorasi company had banned roblox, and people had made the utility to avoid ban within 30 minutes and you're talking about AGE VERIFICATION.

[solid lynx]

gep

[near current]

The Childrens proceeds to bypass it by using their Parents' ID cards

[mint lodge]

you??mentioned the age verification. sorry i dont understand

[mental tendon]

It’s just people discussing the fact they have ads that doesn’t mean it’s a bug

[glossy aspen]

Guys...so is the ads is a bug?

[rough lion]

no the person who posted it is an official moderator for the reddit

[barren birch]

Oh, sorry, I meant that age verification can be bypassed like any other ban

[rough lion]

most likely yes but don’t expect a quick fix

[mint lodge]

OH ok

[broken kraken]

Those limits never help children it’s just to control how people use the internet you’ll never see them try and actual prevent child endangerment unless publicly forced to

[mental tendon]

My point still stands just cause one person says it’s a bug doesn’t mean it’s a bug

[civic olive]

Waddup Reddit

[barren birch]

EVERYTHING can be bypassed these days

[glossy aspen]

Oh thanks, i thought c.ai become chai 😭

[mental tendon]

I also didn’t see the reddit guy through all the stuff

[civic olive]

With every mention of Reddit, a Kendrick Lamar says waddup reddit

[rough lion]

wdym?

[solid lynx]

gerkp

[mental tendon]

You said a reddit guy was there it’s hard to see with all the text from other people as it’s not pinned or anything and I don’t have time nor the energy to read it all

[barren birch]

Kids will have access to C ai in any case, use Fake ID's, fake birth dates, use other faces, anything to get unrestricted permit on internet platform

[broken kraken]

cai is the only app I’ve seen with ad pop ups as “bugs”

[undone cove]

Maybe it’s just an excuse 😟

[rough lion]

open the link that i tagged you on before you’ll see a screenshot

[civic olive]

You get your fish reactions back?

[hazy frigate]

Just cuz one person calls you smart doesn't make you smart

[solid lynx]

naur

[mental tendon]

Exactly it’s like when you lied to your parents as a kid to get out of school you say your sick but you aren’t actually mean you are sick

[rough lion]

@mental tendon this one should lead you to the ss immediately

[civic olive]

They shall pay.

[barren birch]

So the entire "age verification" is just a broken and annoying thing that people will bypass any matters possible

[mental tendon]

Didn’t see any screenshots just people complaining of ads

[solid lynx]

indeed, we will make them pay.

[stray stump]

I just came on here to say how I hate the immediate ad bar you get at the top of your screen when you open the app. Yes, I know they need ads to keep the servers running yada yada, but imo, those make the app look so tacky and it reminds me of those mobile games

[strange sentinel]

Why are my swipes on the app different.

[civic olive]

I shall be contacting soon.

[rough lion]

sadly i cannot send th pic dyw me to send it in dms?

[mental tendon]

You are further proving my point my guy I’m literally saying it’s probably not a bug just because someone said it is

[strange sentinel]

The replies, at that.

[hazy frigate]

So the developers and mods are lying?

[mental tendon]

No I don’t want any dms thank you but if you are gonna say there are screenshots there then like pin em and make ‘em visible or tag me in the specific screenshot

[barren birch]

I had already bypassed it by setting different date of birth when first age verification was actually a thing, I was smart enough to put account's setted date instead of actual birthday. Maybe if I did I would've risked my info on internet

[mental tendon]

They could be we will never know

[rough lion]

i’ve tagged it for you

[civic olive]

Why don't we all just chillax and get along?

[solid lynx]

Perfect

[mental tendon]

Sweet thanks but I think my point still stands I mean we already have all these other ads in the app are you gonna tell me when they first rolled them out it was a bug that just stayed?

[barren birch]

The fact is — Ceo – is r###rd, his decisions are making the app more and more unusable, more annoying ad which is ALREADY ENOUGH and also throwing out completely the old design replacing with worse and probably "modernized" UI

[rough lion]

like i said previously this may be a quick cash grab scheme disguised as a bug so like idt they’ll make it officially a feature yet but they’ll probably get rid of it from the backlash

[halcyon cypress]

no the other ads are by design, the ones that appear in the middle of chats are a bug

[hazy frigate]

Fair point

[deft flicker]

And C.AI is totally bonkers with ads. No wonder there's lag.

[mental tendon]

I doubt they will get rid of it from backlash they’ll just make you pay to get rid of them with character ai plus

[halcyon cypress]

its too inconsistent for that imo. there are people saying they only saw one ad and then no more

[willow bridge]

they’ve been there for weeks for my friend, you’d think they would have announced something or fixed it by now though

[rough lion]

i feel like i’m being water boarded by it 💔

[mental tendon]

Sure jan I’ll still to my thoughts and you stick to yours ok?

[halcyon cypress]

if it was an intentional cash grab they would be consistent and everyone would be getting them

[mental tendon]

But basically everyone is getting them have you not been paying attention?

[rough lion]

I feel like the ads were also poorly designed to ensure their servers don’t lag???

[timber merlin]

I had like 3 or 2 ads in the middle of my roleplays

[halcyon cypress]

thats not uncommon, they tend not to gaf about bugs until they start affecting a lot of people

[halcyon cypress]

can you read?

[rough lion]

no actually, people have reported that theirs is already fixed and i’ve seen people saying that they didn’t get ads either

[amber bane]

SONIC PFP.

[deft flicker]

Yeah right. Then they add more ads on top of ads causing the lag.

[mental tendon]

Can you

[near current]

You two aren't the only ones

[amber bane]

SURGEEE

[rough lion]

yeah that’s probably why it’s a bug because it’s affecting their servers too much that it’s causing lag spikes so like they’ll fix it

[halcyon cypress]

i literally said not everyone is getting them consistently. some people haven't gotten any, some are getting them every 5 min, some were getting them and now they stopped, etc. what is so difficult to grasp

[mental tendon]

Interesting still could be a cash grab that they are trying to hide the full rollout on

[undone cove]

They need to at least make the ads look pretty at the menu

[near current]

Good to know a Sonic fan recognizes her lol

[hazy frigate]

Does cai on website have ads mid-chat? I will go there first until the ads mid-chat is gone in cai app.

It’s difficult for you to grasp that we can have differing thoughts and opinions but hey not judgement

[amber bane]

HELL YEAH SHES SICK

[deft flicker]

No, just the app.

[near current]

Yes

[hazy frigate]

Surge

[amber bane]

Im eating your quills.

[rough lion]

A full roll out would probably mean they had preparation at least. I’ve seen their apps crash because of the ads, it’s not a full roll out. The ads overwhelm C.AI. and therefore are poorly designed

[hazy frigate]

Nah

[void wave]

Phew. I will go back there first.

[halcyon cypress]

literally all i said is that the apps in the middle of chats are a bug and you started being all rude lmao jesus

[mental tendon]

Honestly at this point just remove all the ads

[barren birch]

Also, I'd like to compare, the EMOCHI CHAT DOES NOT REQUIRES ANY PROPER AGE VERIFICATION, and the PERSONAS' DESCRIPTION ARE ON 3000+ CHARACTERS

[amber bane]

Theres a reason why i have plants of your quills growing

[hazy frigate]

[deft flicker]

This. totally.

[mental tendon]

Actually I said my opinion on how I doubt it’s a bug and you disagreed with my opinion if having my own opinion is rude then stop talking to me

[amber bane]

Hey adding them in my ramen tastes good

[hazy frigate]

You and I both Know they won't

[rough lion]

this’ll prolly make th company bankrupt tho, running and maintaining servers and staff are quite pricey

[mental tendon]

It’s literally useless and a waste of time

[hazy frigate]

[mental tendon]

Well it’s not like ai is good for the environment anyway

[amber bane]

Slurps

[mental tendon]

Obviously

[rough lion]

so why exactly are you here using the character ai app if that’s you defense…?

[halcyon cypress]

ads are not useless they generate money

[sly geyser]

well they only need some of it for the money for the servers but the thing thats not acceptable is the excessive amount in the middle of the chat

[deft flicker]

I remember when ai actually was decent until they throttled it.

[near current]

Real
Besides, AI is burning a lot of money than the Company themselves can possibly handle, hence both OpenAI's situation, and potentially CAI's.

[rough lion]

me too 💔

[hazy frigate]

I remember when it was just a website before

[obsidian wharf]

There X-Men or marvel tho?

[halcyon cypress]

yeah expecting no ads at all is unrealistic but they should be not excessive and non obtrusive like they originally promised

[mental tendon]

Does that matter? It’s an addiction that’s why people are constantly on this app and freak out when the app crashes I’m allowed to have a view that ai is bad for the environment and i fully agree with it and I also fully know that this is an addiction that I gotta work on

[sly geyser]

exactly

[deft jetty]

Neither is a car, the clothes you are dressing... yet you are using/consuming them in a daily basis. That argument just isn't good.

[mental tendon]

Exactly

[lunar wharf]

Why are there adds up the top of the app now

[candid parcel]

@mental tendon are you related to childish gambino?

[deft flicker]

I'm still mad at them for taking down Jurassic World content. I mean really? Its like the proverbial contradiction when they say 'c.AI'.

[rough lion]

yeah but you’re still using the app aren’t you? you want to basically get rid of smth that generates money for the very app you’re using.

[hazy frigate]

[halcyon cypress]

streaming video is wayyy worse for the environment in every way but people still binge netflix and youtube happily

[sly geyser]

that wasnt on them i think universal also did a dmca takedown

[amber bane]

Petah how are you doing that...

[hazy frigate]

Secrets

[amber bane]

Petah how

[deft flicker]

A DMAC on public domain is kind of silly.

[sly geyser]

jurassic world isnt public domain wdym?

[hazy frigate]

I've lost hope for humanity

[deft flicker]

I mean the content for it was out in public domain for years after the release of the original film.

[halcyon cypress]

that is not what public domain is

[sly geyser]

its still related to jurassic world which anything relating to that isnt public domain

not trying to sound rude but anything under that category is copyright protected

[barren birch]

Idk, you can create private bots tho

[halcyon cypress]

yeah public domain means a book or other piece of media where the copyright on it has expired

or never existed to begin with

[candid parcel]

there's nothijg stopping you from making a private bot,

the worst they'll do is shadowban your bot and make it unlisted if they dont like it

[solid lynx]

🐟

[candid parcel]

that's as far as ive seen them go, unless you making some heinous bots

[near current]

And the CAI Team is going to delete your private OC bots anyways because of false positive DMCA bullshit.
And u wonder why I don't create a single bot of my own in 3 years

[candid parcel]

dawg tf are you talking about?

[barren birch]

I talk about Emochi

[candid parcel]

how tf can you get a dmca on a bot you never made public 😭💔

[mental tendon]

Sorry got timed out uh to answer a few things

one I’m not related to childish gambino

Two if you had read my fully message I talked about addiction

Three how’s clothes bad for you that you wear

And four sure cars and streaming is probably inherited bad but they don’t take up heaps and heaps of water like ai does to generate a chatgpt response

[barren birch]

For real

[near current]

That's exactly the issue

[candid parcel]

i genuinely dont think thats ever happened in the like... 5 year of the app

[sly geyser]

because you are using their copyrighted property and c.ai can see private bots

[candid parcel]

there was a mass bot shadow ban when they first got copyrighted, but the bots were still AVALIABLE, just not listed

[spark zealot]

do you think they’re gonna fix the false positive stuff?

[candid parcel]

dude the most popular mario and sonic bots just got unlisted wdym 😭

[near current]

You mean 3 years?
CAI had been created since late 2022

[near current]

I don't think they will atp

[halcyon cypress]

my private bots were never touched even during the GoT purge thank god

[sly geyser]

i mean that anything not under free domain is copyrighted and will be taken down regardless of it being listed or not

[spark zealot]

hopefully they will

[candid parcel]

i was there when i saw the entire site get shadow banned, they (the community) made a new site specifically for searching unlisted bots, and thatsvall that came of the strikes, all the famous copyrighted characters got shadowbanned but not deleted

[agile hamlet]

Why on pipsqueak on any character to keep mentioning throwing me out the window 💔 randomly I could be dramatic death and the character go : I WILL THROW YOU OUT THE WINDOW. It was funny the first couple of times but now it's annoying anyone else having this problem?

[tender lion]

They're still on the servers

[candid parcel]

i think you're being paranoid

[sly geyser]

no im just saying the facts

[barren birch]

Even if i had ever made ANY public bots those were Philip's appartment (or smth) about role-playing as CONNOR, RK800, the DBH chatbot, and then I made Manishek's family chatbot (with 90 interactions actually), and those were the only public bots

[candid parcel]

they won't delete your unlisted bot for violating copyright

[mental tendon]

@sly geyser

[sly geyser]

?

[tender lion]

Until company wants it to be removed.

[near current]

Mhm

[mental tendon]

Read it I answered something you asked in it

[severe hatch]

Unlisting a bot doesn't mean it won't be copyrighted I believe

[sly geyser]

exactly

[severe hatch]

They can all be removed

Oh hey ripjaw

[ashen wren]

So is the mid chat ad a glitch? I keep seeing ppl saying the ads are longer and some r shorter every message u send or smt like that

[sly geyser]

oh hey rose

[candid parcel]

theres like thousands of listed bots, they're literally not gonna do anything, and even if they do just make another one

[severe hatch]

I think we still don't know

[severe hatch]

You say this but the Disney ban highkey wiped out everything, even the ones with slightly different names, and prevented new ones from being made

[sly geyser]

would be nice if they gave us info about it on #📈︱status or #📣︱announcements

[barren birch]

Wait, how does copyright even works?

[ashen wren]

It would, then it would prevent less panic

[severe hatch]

Basically if a company doesn't want something they own being on C.AI, they can send a Cease & Desist which says "Hey remove these"

C.AI can either remove them, or get sued

Obviously they don't want to get sued

That's what happened wtih Disney

[sly geyser]

and it would prevent people getting the wrong idea about it. people say its a bug and people say its not so its best for them to say something to ease the confusion

[barren birch]

Like... I make a bot of a certain copyrighted character i have to delete it no matter it's private or public?

[near current]

To sum things up, your OC is yours if you claim it as yours (as usual), but if someone steals it and claims it as theirs — You're allowed to send in a copyright infringement to them

[barren birch]

Damn.

[severe hatch]

it being private or public doesn't matter, but they'll delete it for you

[halcyon cypress]

disney has a family friendly reputation to maintain they don't want their characters on a site where the bots are possessively pinning you against the wall and growling in your ear or whatever

[near current]

But making a Bot based off Companies copyrighted characters is a whole other story tho

[candid parcel]

im actually gonna see what happens if i make a mickey mouse bot

[severe hatch]

It won't let you make it

You're gonna get a popup that says it breaks the rules/regulations or whatever

[sly geyser]

i actually wish the bots never acted possessive and teasing and antagonizing users for everything

[halcyon cypress]

mickey grabs your chin, chuckling and forcing you to look at him as he pins you against the wall, towering over you with a pang of a smirk, his grip tightening possessively

[ashen wren]

Yeah, and a lot of ppl have so much theories it honestly makes me confused. But due to one of the reddit mods (I think) mentioning that it was a bug and to screenshot, no one can rlly convince me otherwise it isn’t. And perhaps C.Ai is trying to fix it? Idk but hopefully they do

[severe hatch]

"This goes against C.AI's TOS" or whatever the popup says

[barren birch]

Oh, okay, so the C. Ai copyright has two sides, one for making bots of certain characters and other is about personal OC thing?

[severe hatch]

I thikn you're thinking too far into this

[sly geyser]

or goofy going “YOU’RE MINE PRINCESS AHYUG”

[barren birch]

Fullhouse🤣

[severe hatch]

It's literally just, is the bot your making owned by a company? If it's your own idea, you're fine

If it's not, it can be claimed

Simple as that

[barren birch]

OK

[severe hatch]

OC's won't get copyrighted if that's what your asking

And if they do you can submit a ticket and they'll fix it

[barren birch]

I think i might need to take a nap...
OR I COULD GET (if could) GAMER SUPPS AND SPEED DRINK AS ONE MAD MAN DOES. And that mad man wears sunglasses at night

[barren birch]

Also, there's so few Fenrir's A.W. chatbots, like only 3 bots about A.W. is all i got. And it was A.W. only, no Canada, no Florida.

[barren birch]

And there's so few Abiotic Factor chatbots.

[cobalt walrus]

Is that normal if I can't react with emojis on this channel anymore? I'm just saying

[arctic raven]

2 of my bots that aren't Disney or DMCA requested got moderated, submitting a ticket did nothing to me:<

[barren birch]

Idk, I cant react

[hollow furnace]

Wait you can’t? Hang on let me try

[severe hatch]

If you can't react to someone's message it means they blocked you

I suppose do with that as you will

[cobalt walrus]

I guess that it's to avoid emoji spam about the ad bug, I guess

[hot ridge]

they removed it temporarily because the channel got too crazy and people kept spamming

[cobalt walrus]

Nope, I can't react on every message at all

[hollow furnace]

Ya probably lmao

[sly geyser]

oh yeah the fish reacts

[barren birch]

Ob ok

[hot ridge]

yeah 😭

[cobalt walrus]

Obviously

[raven lodge]

Weird, I can react still

[severe hatch]

I'm not sure what to tell ya

[sly geyser]

same

[severe hatch]

Ik a lot of people who submitted a ticket and got their bot back

[barren birch]

.... I think I'm gonna make bunch of bots lster

[severe hatch]

Maybe try submitting another one?

[hollow furnace]

Ya the fish spam

[sly geyser]

🐟 fih spam

[barren birch]

Maybe ABF and A.W. related bots

[arctic raven]

They got moderated alongside some disney bots I had, which are 5 in total but those 2 were wrongfully moderated

[severe hatch]

Fih is crazy

[severe hatch]

Try submitting another ticket

[barren birch]

FUCKEN FIS

[cobalt walrus]

I guess that half of the users here are emoji muted because of the whole ad bug thingy

[hollow furnace]

Fih

[near current]

Yep

[hollow furnace]

Oh it’s back

[barren birch]

Hold on, ad bug? Like banners or what?

[arctic raven]

Can't I reach out to a mod instead?;(

[cobalt walrus]

By 'half', I don't mean it literally, just making a comparison in a way lol. Not the first time that something like that happened

[hollow furnace]

No the mid chat ads

[sly geyser]

[severe hatch]

People are getting ads in the middle of chats, unsure if it's a bug or not

[severe hatch]

Mods don't fix things, they just work in the server

But you can ping them to raise your ticket

[spark zealot]

i did mine yesterday morning hopefully i get it back soon

[hollow furnace]

Fr

[cobalt walrus]

Kappa said that they're looking for it and that someone of the team said that it's a bug. It happened before tho, knowing how amazing the potato servers are

[arctic raven]

Ohh alright then, I'm going to make another ticket then. What mod should I ping?

[barren birch]

I got used to this type of bullshit from using Emochi. That is the one out of two downsides from making it the perfect app

[severe hatch]

Any of them honestly, just one of the ones with a blue-orange name

Just ping them with your ticket number and ask them nicely to bump it

[severe hatch]

Can I ask you a question

[arctic raven]

Okayy, thank you sm

[severe hatch]

why do you turn off pings

[sly geyser]

promise not to laugh?

[cobalt walrus]

[severe hatch]

LOL

[raven lodge]

Hope they fix it soon, I wanna go back to the app

[severe hatch]

No fr tho why do you turn off pings when you reply

[hollow furnace]

Lmao

[cobalt walrus]

Had to improvise since I can't react on every single message here

[barren birch]

Once Emochi chat makes atleast possibility to make new chat of the character and make threads off of the storyline/chat then I would abandon C.ai like the worst nightmare and experience the moment they'll do it

[severe hatch]

So like

[cobalt walrus]

It's a habit, idk why

[severe hatch]

@spark zealot Why didn't you just ask me here instead of dming me unprompted

[vestal gyro]

Goddamn it’s still showing ads?

[spark zealot]

cos i wanted to get through to you 😕

[cobalt walrus]

The ad thingy is a bug. It happened months ago, and it was fixed. It's gonna be fixed this week

[severe hatch]

Ya could've pinged me I would've answered

[cobalt walrus]

Idk when, either today or tomorrow or next Monday

[severe hatch]

🙏 To answer your question, yes I know people who got their bots back

Why do ya ask

[limpid peak]

this is bs

[spark zealot]

dyk how long it took?
