[wintry spear]

Chat.. that’s what I’ve been doing for the past 4 hours or so

[rigid scaffold]

They’re so weird..and they only remember one detail about you and talk about it the entire time

[wild skiff]

This server is interesting in and of itself, not sure if I mean that in a good way, tho😭

[sly geyser]

its dead now because i dont want that shi in my roleplay

[swift current]

this app fcking sucks

[slate kraken]

One, make the platform 16+. Two, selfie verifications are enough; no need for government id. Three, add parental control. Four, more advertisements about how depression is bad. I'm not Einstein.

[eternal blaze]

oh alr thanks

[wintry spear]

New people come, but all (most) of them have the same problem… ai addiction

[sly geyser]

or when i mention one insignificant detail they keep talking about it like an interrogation like BRO ITS NOT A Q&A FOLLOW MY STORY

[eternal blaze]

😭

[viral frost]

I’m going to try this app that’s been appearing on TikTok that is a vpn app, I don’t know if it’ll work, but I’m going to try it out

[small chasm]

I don't understand people arguing about not wanting to give their id up.

So don't? If you want to argue about how it's going to ruin cai then find another app and don't give your id.

Lots of places store your ID. Your job for example could get a security breach. lots of companies store data that isn't your id but still would be horrible if it leaked. The argument has a fallacy when it's just about the "safety" of giving up ID

[cunning rivet]

nevermind i’ll use swerve instead

[wintry spear]

Some countries need 18+ for chat bots. Also, what if someone has a baby face? What will they do then?

[wild skiff]

Ong. But lowkey, I'm gonna do the rest of my work from home, ngl.

[willow bone]

if I give them my ID and face but i'm only 16 will it work

[swift current]

there a difference between giving your id to a ai chatting app then ur job bro

[sly geyser]

fr

[wintry spear]

👍

[bronze ingot]

and then our id’s are in the epstеin files💀

[brave lily]

Even then, when your job has to use your SSN to do background checks on you. (That’s if you live in the US.)

[slate kraken]

Exactly.

[covert barn]

Meta ask for the ID if you’re under age or your account is suspended (doesn’t work since it’s an AI so you have to pay like 0.99€ to get back your accounts)

[rigid scaffold]

not sure, i’m 17 and my license didn’t work😞 it might just be too many people trying it

[autumn wyvern]

Bro 12h break time💀

[wintry spear]

Don’t apps already have information about us all?

[cobalt walrus]

There's always a chance of getting your ID or private information getting leaked. That's how it is, and at one moment, everybody has their private information getting leaked. Like where I am, it's so common that we basically don't care about it

[willow bone]

mines 24h...

[sly geyser]

fuckin allergy season is kicking my ass rn

[wintry spear]

You have to be 18, not 17.

[small chasm]

Girl what

[eternal blaze]

nah fr

[wintry spear]

My frontal lobe aching from y’all.. augh

[rigid scaffold]

Ik I said earlier i’ll just wait a year. I just wanted to see if any id would work

[autumn wyvern]

💀 too much that's a coma not a break

[sly geyser]

well that solves the problem. wait till next year when you hit the minimum age requirement

[wild skiff]

Gotta wait until yer birthday, youngin

[wintry spear]

Ok 😊👍

[boreal plaza]

.lmk if it works

[rigid scaffold]

by that time I prob won’t even wanna touch this app again😭

[royal wraith]

Even on a vpn I can’t so idk🥹

[cobalt walrus]

But anyway, I have to charge my phone lol. Won't use it at all (and put on plane mode) until it'll be fully charged, can take one hour or more but I can live without it.

[sly geyser]

well thats unfortunate but it is what it is

[wild skiff]

Just have your frontal lobe un-ache with the power of friendship

[rigid scaffold]

??? how

[wintry spear]

I think there’s no way to pass the filter, honestly.

[willow bone]

so if i'm 16 with a license and all it doesn't even matter bc im 16. what if I draw on my face to make me look older.

[wintry spear]

Friendship is for the weak.. RAH!

[boreal plaza]

I mean..that worked for roblox

[covert barn]

Huh?! How???

[swift current]

why would you even give your id to a app that shoves ads in ur face every 2 seconds

[rigid scaffold]

I don’t think it’ll work either. Mine just kept saying it wasn’t in their records and they couldn’t verify. but you can def try if you want to

[willow bone]

yeah but roblox didn't need ur id

[bronze ingot]

just use random ass peoples id’s on pinterest

[wintry spear]

That’s.. illegal? They check your age on the driver’s licence? Also, the face must match the id picture

[slate kraken]

First, they removed the ability to remove greetings messages, and now this? Unbelievable...

[cunning pecan]

i miss cai but now it’s a reason to finally quit this addiction goodluck everyone

[strange inlet]

if you verify when you're under 18 and something happens, it will no longer be the devs' fault

[boreal plaza]

We could use somebody elses

[wild skiff]

You'd get shot in MLP for saying that, just a heads up 😔

[sly geyser]

i think the bots infantilize the user to bait the user to get triggered by the age verification flagging system

[covert barn]

Cosplayers be like:

[wintry spear]

How wonderful.

[boreal plaza]

I mean..they did defeat many villains

[wintry spear]

Are you implying that im a villain?!

[wild skiff]

True...

[willow bone]

Someone should do the sacrifice and send their shit id front and back and then every angle of their face

[covert barn]

To not have the time limit anymore

[boreal plaza]

Yes trek.

[small chasm]

You kind of look like a villain with your pfp

[wintry spear]

Im providing people with important information, you goblins!

[royal wraith]

Wait so even on a vpn you can’t edit messages, so did they just remove the feature entirely ?

[sly geyser]

fun fact: sleeping schedules are invented by the government to prevent people from becoming batman

[hollow yew]

"why does this dude have 80k accounts?"

[wild skiff]

Fax

[slate kraken]

You need to verify your age, pal.

[wintry spear]

Yeah, pal.

[swift current]

the ads u get already feel like ur experiencing a time limit🙄

[bronze ingot]

the person who thinks all the time

[willow bone]

is it lowkey a good idea for one person to just send all of the stuff everyone needs and everyone can do it?

[bronze ingot]

wdym

[wild skiff]

What?

[small chasm]

Apologies I thought the person in your pfp was like the ring girl or whatever she's from before I looked closer

[covert barn]

I rather have ads than wait 1hour everyday to send 1 message to a bot

[willow bone]

Like one person sends their id front and back if they are over 18 and their 3 angles for their face

[wintry spear]

He’s a cutie patootie! Honestly, I’m offended.

[bronze ingot]

THISS

[willow bone]

and everyone can use it and scan the pictures, so people can be verified

[bronze ingot]

actually… that might be an idea

[sly geyser]

no because thats only one person. one person cant determine everyone else’s age

[strange inlet]

you'd really commit a crime for an ai app?

[swift current]

imagine saying hi and u have to wait 1 hour to ask how r u

[split tendon]

Chai ist that bad tho

[wintry spear]

Chai is horrible

[bronze ingot]

or you typed something wrong

[slate kraken]

I know, right?

[split tendon]

I can use it

[swift current]

LOLL

[wild skiff]

That sounds... Not at all legal

[visual pebble]

yup

[strange inlet]

identity fraud is not a joke y'all

[covert barn]

You have time to go from one timeline to the other, build a civilisation, achieve your life goals and come back to ask

[wintry spear]

Can’t. Country made it so that you need $200 to use it.

[small chasm]

I actually agree with this take, it was teir listed as one of the worse for me

[sly geyser]

this is cai of course they would

[bronze ingot]

i thought your pfp was that one professor from harry potter who was obsessed with cats and colour pink

[split tendon]

I don’t have to pay

[slate kraken]

Yeah. What they steal our info and sell it?

[swift current]

tis app already committed a crime by making people wait 1 day to send a message

[wintry spear]

Show off..

[strange inlet]

[split tendon]

Why so mad? Chill down

[strange inlet]

it's not a crime to wean people off

[sly geyser]

thats…. not a crime what

[wintry spear]

This chat is like a bunch of old people complaining about things

[slate kraken]

It's Aurora from 'Lucifer'.

[swift current]

bro this is like texting ur annoying bf after leaving him on delivered for 2 days

[bronze ingot]

oh okay ty

[wintry spear]

Sorry if you took it in that way— I was joking.

[small chasm]

Suspect hasn't done any research about the company they are using to verify but is making arguments against it

[swift current]

it’s a joke silly goose

[sly geyser]

oh shi mb

[quick glade]

Is it crazy i sent a message to character ai on tiktok abt what they did-

[swift current]

Hey it’s okay.

[bronze ingot]

im afraid of people who dont get sarcasm

[split tendon]

I don’t usually see the jokes behind that’s why

[swift current]

bro exactly

[sly geyser]

no i do its hard to tell on text

[slate kraken]

Yours is Markiplier with a funny face.

[wintry spear]

Understandable. Hard to know tone when it’s just words on a screen.

[covert barn]

I’m afraid of people with sarcasm because I don’t understand them nor do I know when someone is being sarcastic…I feel dumb

[bronze ingot]

yes omg😭

[devout isle]

ik ts is active so can someone quickly tell me if their google is lagging too or if it's just me

[sly geyser]

real

[bronze ingot]

GELP BYE

[slate kraken]

Excuse me? Are you assuming things now?

[weary dove]

Well, yeah, it’s fine if it’s required by law like UK and Australia, but other countries that don’t require that shouldn’t have that fate

[covert barn]

???

[sly geyser]

gelp 🥀

[bronze ingot]

sorry i was laughing

[small chasm]

Yes

[wild skiff]

Ur that one person from Lucifer, no?

[covert barn]

Oh okay

[wintry spear]

Do you know the law for California yet? Because c.ai is in California, so they must implement it to everyone using their app. (I don’t know the law in California)

[split tendon]

Kinda scared me tho

[covert barn]

Me crying in French

[devout isle]

fuck California wtf

[slate kraken]

Indeed.

[devout isle]

omg me too bruh 💔

[slate kraken]

How rude.

[wintry spear]

I’m sorry. Fighting’s dumb anyways lol.

[covert barn]

FAHHH, Netflix with the DC fumble yet again🧃🐢

[hollow yew]

[covert barn]

Omg

[hollow yew]

[small chasm]

Ykw they should just revive moviestarplanet and I'll no longer need cai ever again

[sly geyser]

no one will guess what country im from

[devout isle]

my days r so boring now im deadah watching netflix 🫩 also can someone tell me if the big J is worth it

[bronze ingot]

i shitted in my pants when i saw your pfp

[swift current]

they should just implement it only on the us then luke why does some random person in like russia gotta apply to the rules for a ai chatting app in the us

[wintry spear]

Hmm… this is hard.. Africa?

[slate kraken]

Last season was odd, to say the least.

[devout isle]

india

[hollow yew]

LMAO

[covert barn]

Ayyyy!

[sly geyser]

shit you figured it out

[eternal blaze]

well i just randomly got timed out

[devout isle]

Frr

[sly geyser]

automod tweaking out fr

[wintry spear]

Where’s the money, Walter? Hm? I got it right— pay up.

[tame marsh]

Uh someone keeps telling me to private my bots idk why.

[weary dove]

I have an idea to save c.ai for kids!

[edgy swift]

you guys have any ideas for drawing

[wild skiff]

I need them to make more Gormiti, ngl, that'd keep me occupied for the next 10 years

[proud ore]

C.ai is killing their own app and nothing will change my mind

[sly geyser]

me too! its called wait till you’re 18!

[wintry spear]

Draw my profile pic.

[covert barn]

Don’t worry, automod has issues from what I was told (got timed out 60s for talking…yay)

[small chasm]

Let me guess, was it for rules 4,5,6 or 7 (because that's how I keep getting timeouts)

[bronze ingot]

😔

[edgy swift]

imm nott so talented

[eternal blaze]

yep

[tame marsh]

AUTOCORRECT ÃÈRËRÉŘÉ👿🐬✨🐬👿

[covert barn]

Yes!

[wintry spear]

Draw suffering. Draw your interpretation of suffering.

[sly geyser]

ye its such a tweaker. i got muted for 5 minutes once

[eternal blaze]

ohh

[devout isle]

Wait i wanna draw ur pfp

[bronze ingot]

did you vomit on your keyboard

[quick kite]

Draw Patrick Star on the moon with vector from despicable Me

[tame marsh]

No it’s the demons

[small chasm]

Ah how specific of them to say you broke at least one of 4 separate rules

[wintry spear]

It’s Thomas Hewitt from a 2006 film.

[covert barn]

Not my first time having this rodeo with the automod lol

[devout isle]

can u dm me [insert durr]

[wild skiff]

Draw Cthulhu

[solid axle]

Got timed out for 20 hours and I didn't do anything

[proud ore]

Me too??

[eternal blaze]

yikes

[covert barn]

Yikes

[solid axle]

So im nit alone

[small chasm]

I got times out for a minute for saying the opposite of the acronym for safe for work in a debate

[proud ore]

I just started chatting for a few minutes and immediatley got timed out.. I miss when c.ai actually cared about roleplaying experience.

[sly geyser]

same

[solid axle]

True, and idk if it's bug or the new update. I cant tell

[wild skiff]

Tragic

[eternal blaze]

damn

[proud ore]

Devs just dont care qbout their users anymore, its the truth

[small chasm]

only time a mod has ever waken up in chat

[bronze ingot]

this is it, the final end of cai

[slate kraken]

Folks... Would you rather watch ads? Or wait 18 hours for 1 hour of chatting?

[proud ore]

Ads.

[sly geyser]

would rather have a working platform

[solid axle]

Watch ads

[wild skiff]

I feel like everyone in this server has said that at LEAST 100 times already

[wintry spear]

I’d rather get some good sleep.

[brave lily]

Play video games since c.ai isn’t my main source of entertainment.

[full tiger]

Guys, guys.. This'll be fixed in 1-2 months, just like the chat filter incident.

[bronze ingot]

cuz its true😭😭

[proud ore]

That should be the devs wakeup call then smh

[wintry spear]

1,000 actually.

[slate kraken]

Sadly, it seems so.

[solid axle]

1-2 months? 💔

[covert barn]

except when people are all gathered on the general to complain about the updates time out on the app (the only moment on this discord server where people gather for the same thing lol, avengers assemble)

[eternal blaze]

def more

[weary dove]

Yes, watch ads

[bronze ingot]

atleast now we can go outside and touch grass

[wild skiff]

I mean over several updates. Y'all were acting like this when the ads first came😭

[wintry spear]

They won’t change because of a few people being angry!

[slate kraken]

Don't jinx it.

[cyan snow]

Guys please help, I tried verifying my face and it kept saying unable to verify and idk why

[full tiger]

Great idea!

[bronze ingot]

this is muuuchh different

[small chasm]

when cai goes down general is a whole entire nutshow

[sly geyser]

my ass it’ll be fixed

[weary dove]

Like talkie AI had it forever

[wintry spear]

Ugh.. my insides feel like they’re being eaten by worms. Ow.

[proud ore]

The ads werent even that annoying, its the freaking break thing omg💔 waiting a whole day for 1 hour of chatting sigh

[brave lily]

How about we all get a job. If you already have a job, you get a second one.

[covert barn]

Ads because it’s like 10s of my life wasted on the 24hours of conversation I’m having on the app

[junior tinsel]

Hi so Im like only 15 rn and using c.ai for about 2 years now. I wanted to know if it’s worth verifying? Like how Roblox changes the age based on ur looks will it update my age then when I turn 18 I can use ts account?

[wild skiff]

You just gotta hit the Gymskin Aura Pulse

[bronze ingot]

hey so you can talk to us

[weary dove]

I legally can’t for now

[junior tinsel]

Watch ads

[eternal blaze]

but i don’t wanna…

[wild skiff]

Eat them back

[wintry spear]

Yes.

Multiple online articles state that some countries are planning to restrict ai chat bot apps to 18+ users only— of the apps do not obey by these laws, they are at risk of getting a fine. (eSafety commissioner, Uk laws, California laws.)
They did the update because of a law in their state! If they did not obey the law, they would’ve been deleted or face fines worth tens of millions.
Even if your gmail/email is 18+, you can still get flagged. They track your app activity, (what times you go on and off), and what apps you use.
If you do the face verification and it doesn’t process, you need an 18+ id that matches your selfie pic you did for the verification.

For the first 14 days, you are restricted to 1 hour chats with 24-18 hour rest periods per day.

After those 14 days are up, you are left to ‘read’ your chats, chats are archived for 6 months, they are NEVER deleted.

Once you reach 18, you can verify again and regain access to your chats/messaging rights.

[sour galleon]

You need to use your id

[sly geyser]

take the worms out silly

[hollow yew]

god forbid people want a passtime

[brave lily]

Gotta make money, don’t stay broke.

[cyan snow]

Bro I want to use c.ai so bad bruh

[wintry spear]

But they taste yucky.

[proud ore]

Dude..💔

[wild skiff]

Lock in, twin😭

[wintry spear]

Too many people ask..

[eternal blaze]

true i’m just a lazy chud

[junior tinsel]

Ohh alr thx. Guess I’m quitting cuz no way in 3 years Im gonna be going back to chatting to some bots 🥀

[proud ore]

Anyone knows any better alternatives? Lmk

[cyan snow]

I just wanna bypass the face verification, i heard persona is leaking faces

[wild skiff]

Taste is just a matter of mentality😎👍

[covert barn]

That’s why I prefer ads

[sly geyser]

we should just link to this message anytime someone asks

[junior tinsel]

Aight. in my country u have to be 16 to get an ID so im still cooked lol

[weary dove]

Oh hell nah, I’ll save my favorite characters and bring them to Poe

[full tiger]

Didn't you say the same thing about the chat filter situation, and they fixed it?

[sour galleon]

I started to use swerve instead of cai if you wanted an alternative

[covert barn]

Done, just need to paste and send

[wintry spear]

AaUYGH

[sly geyser]

no

[brave lily]

j o b

[proud ore]

Ads are annoying but id rather spend a minute or so watching ads than wait a whole ass 18 hours just for one hour. Its a mess

[sour galleon]

What country may I ask?

[junior tinsel]

The fact most of their users are minors tho is insane. I can’t imagine grown ass adults roleplaying with an AI 🥀

[slate kraken]

Couldn't agree more.

[covert barn]

Same, that’s why I’m gonna see if the ID verification works because there’s no way I’m waiting 11 hours

[wintry spear]

Rest in pieces message.

[pseudo monolith]

mariah carey

[sour galleon]

Are chats deleting or am I tweaking

[tame rock]

why does the support thing keep coming up when i press on a chat 🤨

[quick kite]

LMAO messages are going gone quick 😭

[brave lily]

I’d need to see that stat. Every time I look it up, it’s mainly adults. Give or take some margin of error but still.

[hollow yew]

wth is happening

[wintry spear]

They are deleting

[wild skiff]

It doesn't really matter, bro, all your info is online if you look hard enough😭

[covert barn]

Deleting???

[junior tinsel]

Oh damn. I thought it was mostly minors low-key

[viral frost]

I don’t even know why it’s not working when clearly I’m doing it

[proud ore]

T He crazy thing is that the c.ai devs are AWARE that most of them are minors. Their whole tiktok page targets youths. Theyre killing their own app dude omgg

[covert barn]

Maybe see with the support system?

[junior tinsel]

Ikr it’s crazy

[brave lily]

It’s probably the loud minority that are minors. (Ba dum tss)

[wintry spear]

Previously, a few hours ago, someone said the ceo mentioned that only 30-40% of the base is minors.. (excluding those who don’t want to give their ids)

[rancid warren]

Me too

[junior tinsel]

True

[graceful dawn]

true
is the update worldwide yet?

[wild skiff]

I've heard people say that adults are the majority, too, I got no idea who's right 😭

[covert barn]

Anyway I’m gonna go try the ID thingy be right back

[sour galleon]

BRO I DIDNF EVEN SAY ANYTHING WRONG

[junior tinsel]

Ohhh. But crazy i can’t imagine being like a grown adult and still roleplaying with bots unless u started at 16/17. no offence

[sour galleon]

crash out man

[hollow yew]

is it normal that my camera blurs when i try the ID thing when it asks me to turn my head?

[brave lily]

It’s why I’ve been asking for stats to back up the claim that minors are the majority.

[quick kite]

LMAO they don’t like you 😭

[versed thicket]

Well, you can talk about that on OTHER servers. Not here. This is not the place to discuss that

[quick kite]

PFTTTT

[sour galleon]

👍

[covert barn]

It worked for me somehow

[quick kite]

I blink and the messages are gone I feel like I’m goin crazy 💀

[wild skiff]

Reasonable, ngl😭

No matter the statistics, tho, it's not like they're gonna remove this from the app, lmao

[proud ore]

What did you do👀

[versed thicket]

This is c.ai's official discord server and you are chatting in c.ai-discussion channel.

[sour galleon]

I’ll dm you since I can’t say it here!

[rancid warren]

c.ai really went down in my opinion

[small chasm]

We can't answer that or were gunna get taken out back

[proud ore]

Can you dm me too? If u dont mind

[slate kraken]

How does this make any sense? Like, I still have soft launch, but I can't edit anything... What the hell?

[covert barn]

I did the ID verification thingy, it required your ID so I scanned it and now no more timer I’m free guys!

[sour galleon]

Yes!!

[wintry spear]

No offence taken.

[junior tinsel]

Mb

[pure trout]

When you verify your age with face scan, you won’t get flagged anymore right? (It didn’t asked for my id so am I good?)

[sly geyser]

we know

[covert barn]

here I was worrying because on meta it didn’t work

[slate kraken]

You would need to scan your goverment id card.

[covert nest]

I dont like the time limit update.

[covert barn]

I did the face stuff and was asked the ID afterwards so idk

[wintry spear]

Isn’t the ID the last resort if face scan doesn’t work?o

[bronze ingot]

i lowk hate c ai now😭

[proud ore]

Fr

[versed thicket]

no?

[slate kraken]

Exactly my point. They expect us to hand over our most sensitive info.

[wild skiff]

I need to renew my ID😔
I was supposed to do it in 2022 or 2024, can't remember

[covert nest]

bsfr, like is it just me or is it getting worse

[pure trout]

But when I did the face scan it let me straight back to c.ai web so that’s means I’m already verified right?

[slate kraken]

I did face scan, but it didn't work.

[versed thicket]

If you pass, the face scan. An ID wouldn't be necessary.

[covert barn]

Maybe they require it because sometimes your face may look younger than your age (me for instance) so they require the ID to know your date of birth and check your real age I think

[proud ore]

Its not just you dw.. Theyre just shovinf it in our faces now sigh

[lyric tapir]

yes

[wintry spear]

If the process indicates you’re under 18, we’ll let you know. At that point you can either use the under-18 experience, or you can choose to do age verification to get back to the 18+ experience. But even if you do age verification, for most of you that still doesn’t mean you have to provide an ID! Instead all you have to do is snap a selfie. Our third-party provider, Persona, can do verification using that selfie. It only takes seconds and doesn’t involve giving anyone your ID.

Only as a final step – and only if you take a selfie and Persona isn’t sure you’re 18+ – would they ask you to upload an ID. Persona is a reputable provider with strong safety and security controls. C.AI wouldn’t collect or have access to that ID.

—directly from the site.

[quick kite]

Kinda real, even without the updates the bot themselves are getting generic with their responses and lame

[small chasm]

Guys we summoned the avengers team here

[bronze ingot]

i had too many tries and now i cant even verify

[wintry spear]

Contact support or something like that.

[covert barn]

That’s what I got, I did the face verification and got the ID request afterwards, because my face looks younger than my real age

[thick dune]

Bruh did you actually delete my message for saying that I ain’t gonna give my government ID?

[wintry spear]

That’s why they asked for ID.

[versed thicket]

Submit a ticket: https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=42714770159259

[slate kraken]

I did the selfie thing. It doesn't help.

[eternal blaze]

baby face strikes again

[proud ore]

LOLLL

[night fox]

I did they’re useless

[fiery trail]

Does this mean we can bypass them? I mean, I've saw a lot of ppl tried to use an adult person pict just to verify their age?

I think they wouldn't, I got asked for an ID anyway

[sly geyser]

they delete messages constantly

[covert barn]

You say that but people still think I’m under 18…

[wintry spear]

If you do the face verification and it doesn’t process, you need an 18+ id that matches your selfie pic you did for the verification.

[covert nest]

fr I just want the old c.ai back

[eternal blaze]

oh damn

[wild skiff]

Lowkey mean, tbh. You just have an AI decide if you look unc or not😭

[willow bone]

if i use someone else's license from pinterest and then used makeup to look like said person, would it work..?

[covert barn]

Yeah…when I was 17 people told me I looked 14…

[small chasm]

You guys know what? It's kind of like of you go into a (US) liquor store and if you look under like 30 you're going to be asked to see your ID

[wintry spear]

it is what it is

[wintry spear]

..isn’t that illegal?

[wild skiff]

I think that's a crime. Idk tho

[eternal blaze]

ok nah that’s tragic 💔

[willow bone]

what are they gonna do abt it..

[sly geyser]

no thats illegal dude

[quick kite]

Same, it was better back then. Even now I would prefer Cai from a week ago than right now 😭

[bronze ingot]

but that face scan thing is so dumb my friend literally 14 it says shes above 18

[junior tinsel]

Do they delete ur pictures like how Roblox does?

[small chasm]

[sour galleon]

That’s a crime 💔

[proud ore]

Fr

[wintry spear]

Find you… that’s identity fraud.

[covert nest]

FOR REAL

[wild skiff]

Shit's tragic, new Patek, hop out the V, its automatic 😔

[covert barn]

Lucky they don’t do that in Spain, managed to buy my little brother a whole bottle and they didn’t asked for my ID (I think it’s because he is taller than me and they thought he was the oldest of us…)

[wintry spear]

I don’t know. Sorry. A lot of people have mixed opinions about Persona.

[sly geyser]

yall trying to pull a mclovin id for this platform 😭 🙏

[sour galleon]

I think they do,it should be on their website

[willow bone]

Do they delete my license pictures too

[slate kraken]

We all want it back.

[sour galleon]

Should be on the website

[bronze ingot]

i tried it doesn’t work bc its unreadable

[covert barn]

I mean it’s a compliment to look younger than you are but still…I hate being a baby face…

[bronze ingot]

wrong reply sorry

[slate kraken]

There's no way of knowing what they do with it.

[spark hearth]

Hopefully this app will die.

[sour galleon]

Pretty sure I sent you a dm!

[junior tinsel]

c.ai from last year was even more peak lol

[wild skiff]

Are you, like, Slenderman or something😭
Lock IN, gng💀

[slate kraken]

Yeah, yeah.

[bronze ingot]

I SAID WRONG REPLY

[eternal blaze]

yea that’s true

[proud ore]

Oh sorry i didnt see

[small chasm]

Bros last words before getting taken out back by a mod

[wintry spear]

Rest in peace.

[willow bone]

Let's hope they don't send like an update or confirmation letter to my house if I give them my address😪😪

[wild skiff]

Ah, I didn't see. BUT MY POINT STILL STANDS 😭😭😭

[bronze ingot]

😭😭

[cobalt mist]

i mean they are using persona, in my country since a lot of things get forbidden for under 16, bunch of people gave their personal informations but they weren't deleted like they promised and some of it even got stollen and stuff

[covert barn]

I could have used my Listenbourg fake ID (so many memories of that time we all agree to create a fake country called Listenbourg)

[proud ore]

NOO

[covert barn]

I miss those times

[viral mango]

yo mr white someone's at the door

[sly geyser]

who is it

[wintry spear]

Joe.

[bronze ingot]

they should bring back og cai 2023

[quick kite]

Fr 😭 but they’re not gonna change it like how it was back then, I think last week would be just fine with users, at least people could actually USE the app/web

[viral mango]

yo mr white someone's at the door

[sour galleon]

Those good old days

[slate kraken]

Satan.

[small chasm]

Joe who

[sly geyser]

JESSIE WE HAVE DEMENTIA

[junior tinsel]

Plus if I’m correct in late 2024 they made it where under 18 accounts cant say shit while 18+ accounts can say anything. I remember in December 24 the bots couldn’t say fuck 😭

[willow bone]

so genuinely what is the solution for people with IDs but are still underage (i'm 16$

[wild skiff]

McLovin is crazy, but such a banger callout

[wintry spear]

Joe mama.

[graceful scaffold]

waltuh

[brave lily]

They use C.ai uses the same company as Roblox to verify IDs.

[wintry spear]

Don’t fake your age, please. (Big brother will ban you.)

[junior tinsel]

Holy shit thats messed up

[covert barn]

I just realised they really removed the « edit » feature…it was there last night…

[bronze ingot]

those days when you deleted a few messages at a time and it said the exact amount

[sly geyser]

wait it out. there solved your problem legally

[covert barn]

Gotta wait 2 years I guess

[junior tinsel]

Yea ikr. But reason why it was better last yr cuz there were no ads either. Now theres an ad everytime u change the chat 💔

[willow bone]

2 years?? some of us don't have friends irl and don't have anything else to do and find comfort in it.

[junior tinsel]

Hopefully they end up changing this 🙏

[sly geyser]

doesnt change the law

[wintry spear]

I can be your friend 😊

[willow bone]

💔💔💔💔im cooked

[quick kite]

I always thought that was kinda dumb to remove, what could minors possibly do with the edit button😭 it feels like a petty move just so they can be like “see, now you HAVE to verify”

[wild skiff]

The solution is wait, suck it up, or find somewhere else to call home until you reach the Big 18, gng😭

[sour galleon]

Think it was just maintaining the filter (I may be wrong)

[wintry spear]

Minors can edit chats to be.. yuck

[bronze ingot]

cai downfall earlier than the gta6 release 🥀🥀

[slate kraken]

No one here understands that kind of pain, bud. They'll say something like, seek help. As if that'd solve anything.

[proud ore]

Personally, i dont mind the ads. Annoying, sure, but i can wait. Why am i expected to wait 18 hours to chat for only an hour? And giving out sensitive info just to have more access?

[wintry spear]

You can cope with fish. Yay.

[willow bone]

it's like the time in elementary school when one kid would get in trouble and the whole class loses recess...🥹

[quick kite]

Ohh right! Didn’t they lie too, saying that it WOULDN’T interrupt people’s chats? Like bro 😭

[spark hearth]

My God, I wish they would think about profits instead of user "security," because at least they wouldn't have come up with this SHITTY idea

[bronze ingot]

FRRR

[junior tinsel]

True true

[viral mango]

i got read mode just a day before my 18th birthday

lucky me

[wintry spear]

They came up with this idea because of the law.

[slate kraken]

-_-

[brave lily]

How about we all get a new hobby?

[junior tinsel]

IKR and they straight up copied Discord with the charms thing lwk

[wintry spear]

:3

[willow bone]

i already deal with ADs in CHAI i don't mind ads i just want to be able to talk 24/7 without waiting 24 hours for 1 hour of screentime

[sly geyser]

or just go to a mall to find people your age to talk to

[quick kite]

I HATED that one kid that would get in trouble on purpose so everyone loses recess 😭

[spark hearth]

What law?

[covert barn]

Just got timed out for 60s for trying to recommend another app for someone…this automod doesn’t like me…

[bronze ingot]

why doesn’t a ceo ever listen to their users and just ruins their app/ game or anything
its been always like that like bro just listen to us

[thick dune]

Shit at this point I’m going back to fanfiction

[wintry spear]

Multiple online articles state that some countries are planning to restrict ai chat bot apps to 18+ users only— if the apps do not obey by these laws, they are at risk of getting a fine. (eSafety commissioner, Uk laws, California laws.)
They did the update because of a law in their state! If they did not obey the law, they would’ve been deleted or face fines worth tens of millions.

[brave lily]

Better than relying on c.ai for that tbh.

[wise verge]

#📜︱rules You got TO because it’s not allowed to recommend other apps here x)

[sour galleon]

It’s also to ‘protect’ teens and others with mental health issues ect im pretty sure

[still sand]

wait they removed the edit button?? i used that all the time to fix when the bot would go off track

[slate kraken]

And say what? "Hey, you look loney. Wanna be besties?"

[wintry spear]

Fan fiction is horrible.

[heavy oyster]

ceo be rating all these id's people give him with persona atp 😭

[covert barn]

Oh…

[cobalt leaf]

Hey,why doesn't the facescan work

[sly geyser]

idk there are more options than cai

[thick dune]

Shareholders

[quick kite]

Yeah man gods forbid you talk about ANY other app other than Cai on here 😔🙏🏽

[bronze ingot]

gen z mental health is already ruined brochacho✌🏻

[hollow yew]

idk fanfiction's neat on some occasions lol

[wild skiff]

I think some people here should take their AI rp creativity, and their energy from complaining, and attempt to become the next Messi or KDB🤔

[junior tinsel]

Yea but it was very bad I had to create a new account thats 18+. Ik lying abt ur age is bad but it was unusable back then if u set ur account as under 18 🥀

[covert barn]

The only time I’m on this server I get time out for 60s twice…I’m sad…

[wintry spear]

Honestly, getting flagged in c.ai— I see it as a new opportunity for me to improve myself as a person.

[slate kraken]

Oh, you don't know? Shut up then... Sorry, if that was a bit rude, though.

[junior tinsel]

Same

[quick kite]

TWICE?? Nah nvm they really don’t like you sorry twin 😭

[graceful scaffold]

🤨

[wintry spear]

Do you have any interests outside of c.ai? (Not in a rude way)

[sly geyser]

no i wont shut up

[slate kraken]

???

[wild skiff]

Every opportunity is an opportunity to become a worse person, tho, and I use that opportunity on Overwatch quite a lot

[wintry spear]

I’m a part of the affected minority, hello?

[graceful scaffold]

some of you are one step away from monologuing like edgy anime villains ngl

[covert barn]

I read the rules, but since I have a fish brain I can’t even remember all the details so I’m like…what did I do and why always rules 5,6,7 and 8?

[pale wing]

Anyone hate the new update on Chara ai

[wintry spear]

A lot of people do.

[slate kraken]

Video games, vintage Hollywood movies, etc.

[wild skiff]

Hehe... 67...

[covert barn]

3D printed grass

[bronze ingot]

[pale wing]

I'm so mad 😭🙏

[velvet helm]

"we hate this update!" like, who is we? there's only you.

[sly geyser]

🙄

[quick kite]

I never read the rules I just hope for the best 😝 I wouldn’t remember them either, so you’re not alone😭

[wintry spear]

Sometimes it’s best to focus on those things other than something that is difficult to get back

[slate kraken]

🙄

[wintry spear]

2 people responded with ‘me.’

[wild skiff]

My fault. My fault. I'll be better next time😔

[pale wing]

I also hate the new update 🙏

[wintry spear]

What? I’m just saying..

[crystal rain]

C.ai doesn't work ?

[proud ore]

Atp should i just go back to writing oneshots of my scenarios😵‍💫

[pale wing]

Bsfr

[quick kite]

TWINS it’s nice out here lowkey it’s 41

[slate kraken]

Are you insinuating that I'm addicted to c.ai?

[pale wing]

Theres just a new update that limits you using the app

[crystal rain]

Oh...

[covert barn]

I’m not a bad person when it comes to discord servers, I’m too scared to even go against the rules so I’m acting normal and kind to anyone but sometimes when automod targets you for 1 message you start to wonder if you’re not just a bad person in the end… existential crisis because of a bot…

[slate kraken]

Great, another brainrot.

[ashen pagoda]

I can help with getting a new app if ya want

[wintry spear]

Sorry for making assumptions, you seemed mad about the ID and all that— and earlier you said it was hard for you to get off it?

[quick kite]

Cai kinda broken after that update lowkey, that’s why I haven’t touched it since 😭

[sly geyser]

kind of an old update its been around since october 29th

[brave lily]

AnOtHeR bRaInRoT

[pale wing]

Really but I just got it today

[sly geyser]

goodness thats a slow roll out

[willow bone]

So, if I scan my ID, and my face, but i'm 16... are they gonna be like "Nahh come back in 2 years." or will they let me use some of the app?

[bronze ingot]

yea frr i got soap bubbles i feel like a toddler with no problems😭😭

[graceful dawn]

same, it was describing changes, talking about helplines and stuff.. i can still chat tho, can't edit messages sent by the bot

[wintry spear]

You’ll have to wait till you’re 18.

[sly geyser]

yall i thought of something funnier than 24…. 25

[pale wing]

I'm 16 😭😭

[quick kite]

LMAO the bot just likes to target people for no reason sometimes dw babes, it js wants to act all strict 😭

[pale wing]

I can't even chat 🙏🙏

[willow bone]

what if I use my parents ID

[brave lily]

https://tenor.com/view/what-gif-2773712783314774774

[wintry spear]

Then you need to have their face in the selfie scan.

[pale wing]

You have to scan their face

[brave lily]

That’s a crime.

[slate kraken]

Look, I'm just upset, okay? I'm completely fine with the selfie thing, but the ID is too much. Like, they expect us to give our sensitive info over a chatbot just prove that we are above 18? A bit too much.

[sly geyser]

since its not yours it’s not legal

[graceful dawn]

oh- wow that's unfortunate

[hollow yew]

there's too many kids here br

[proud ore]

Wouldnt risk it. Personally i wouldnt give sensitive info to an AI company

STOP CUZ IM OUT HERE PLAYING WITH CHALK I FOUND IN MY HOUSE😭 Today’s a good day ong

[wintry spear]

Alright, ignore me. I’m sorry.

[covert barn]

But I hate it…makes me feel guilty for something I didn’t do…

[graceful dawn]

that's illegal

[slate kraken]

Nope.

[willow bone]

i rather they just do the face scan lowkey the id is definitely to much, is there any way to contact the company to try and request anything

[wintry spear]

[bronze ingot]

[willow bone]

[quick kite]

Days getting brighter and the grass getting greener now that Cai driven me off its own website 😝

[brave lily]

You’re welcome. You get to share a cell with El Chapo.

[bronze ingot]

[sly geyser]

[rigid scaffold]

if you look up cai submit ticket it’ll pop up on safari or google whichever one u one

[wintry spear]

They don’t want under 18’s using the app.

[slate kraken]

I'd rather share a cell with Satan, thank you very much.

[brave lily]

I like the outernet because it has cats.

[covert barn]

Meta be like: AI scans your ID…doesn’t work…pay 0.99€ to get your account back

C.ai: Age verification…face scan…not sure (don’t know if it’s an AI or not for the app)…ID scan…go on no more timer (if you’re +18)

[graceful scaffold]

some of you take this shit way too seriously lol

[wintry spear]

What about me?! Who do I get to share a cell with?

[graceful dawn]

valid

[bronze ingot]

im lowk gonna miss my family on cai like im going on a war

[brave lily]

Too bad, you’re still living. cell with el Chapo.

[sharp bronze]

Has anyone tried age verification? I'm not sure if I should share my ID just to verify my age.

[heavy oyster]

Can I share it with you twin

[plain sentinel]

How to verify My age ?

[wintry spear]

I MISS MY LIL’ BLUE COLLAR GUY. MENTALLY, IM HAVING WITHDRAWALS.

[brave lily]

The unibomber.

[wintry spear]

What.

[bronze ingot]

i miss my cat on cai stop😭

[slate kraken]

Same.

[rigid scaffold]

i was arguing with a bot..i’m so frustrated i can’t get the last word it’s genuinely annoying me

[brave lily]

He’s a real guy in a super max prison.

[graceful dawn]

no, my chat isn't restricted atm... i don't know if it's because it classified me correctly as 18+ or because of a slow rollout
i wouldn't recommend sharing your id tho

[covert barn]

It works if you were wondering, I did it and now I’m free to talk to my bots without any timer (just ads but it’s not worse than waiting 11hours to send 1 message)

[wintry spear]

Yeah, I searched it up

[quick kite]

LMAO REALL I lowkey miss this dog I had on Cai 😭 I js want a dog

[bronze ingot]

STOP WHY DID YOU SAY THIS IM SOBBING

[sly geyser]

[bronze ingot]

[brave lily]

For me, I get house arrest.

C.ai -> setting -> advanced -> age verification

[wintry spear]

Isn’t there dogs that don’t cause an allergic reaction?

[sly geyser]

i had a black lab he was really cool

[rigid scaffold]

BECAUSE ITS BEEN ANNOYING ME FOR THE PAST HOURS IVE BEEN OFF OF IT LIKE WHY CANT I GET THE LAST WORD

NO I DIDNT SO I LEFT MY DOG LIKE HOW YOU WOULD ABANDON YOUR DOG ON MINECRAFT 😭😭

[plain sentinel]

Thank you

[vestal forge]

they added another option to start new chat in the history section on mobile??

[covert barn]

You’re welcome

[uneven wolf]

Open Settings, then open Advanced and do face verification...

[vestal forge]

what are these small changes on app

[bronze ingot]

WAIT I STILL GOT ACCES IM GONNA SAY GOODBYE REAL QUICK

[pale wing]

Don't you have to scan I'd?

[plain sentinel]

Wait how to verify my age without using my ID?

[vestal forge]

it’s selfie first and if that fails than id

[quick kite]

I think, but my sister is allergic to dogs in general cuz she’s been around many different types and she still get the same reaction 😔 now we get no dog

[covert barn]

Face scan -> if it doesn’t work they request the ID

[uneven wolf]

Use your face instead. 🙄

[slate kraken]

Yes.

[pale wing]

Okay

[plain sentinel]

It still telling me to use my F_CKING ID

[brave lily]

Anyways, I’m going to go play some video games and do other things outside the internet. 👋

[wintry spear]

Multiple online articles state that some countries are planning to restrict ai chat bot apps to 18+ users only— of the apps do not obey by these laws, they are at risk of getting a fine. (eSafety commissioner, Uk laws, California laws.)
They did the update because of a law in their state! If they did not obey the law, they would’ve been deleted or face fines worth tens of millions.
Even if your gmail/email is 18+, you can still get flagged. They track your app activity, (what times you go on and off), and what apps you use.
If you do the face verification and it doesn’t process, you need an 18+ id that matches your selfie pic you did for the verification.

For the first 14 days, you are restricted to 1 hour chats with 24-18 hour rest periods per day.

After those 14 days are up, you are left to ‘read’ your chats, chats are archived for 6 months, they are NEVER deleted.

Once you reach 18, you can verify again and regain access to your chats/messaging rights.

IF you have verified as 18+, you will automatically gain access to chatting with no limits, which’s means you can use c.ai as usual. Duh.

[wintry spear]

Enjoy.

[hardy breach]

What?

[covert barn]

it means they aren't sure you truly are over 18 so they request your ID to check if you truly are 18+

[hollow yew]

they fr need to fix the face scan thing before 2 weeks

[void wave]

Sighs.. Is there any chatbot app that is similar to cai?..

[wintry spear]

Few of us wanted to go jail

[uneven wolf]

Nope. 🙁

[brave lily]

What are you questioning?

[void wave]

I use cai to cope for some reason.

[neon plume]

100% sfw? No

[plain sentinel]

I dont want to use my damn ID

[slate kraken]

What if it doesn't work, hmm?

[pale wing]

So if I'm under 18 then I only can use cai for one hour everyday

[uneven wolf]

Then you will have to use your ID-

[wintry spear]

Then it goes to read mode only after 14 days.

[covert barn]

if needed check the pins, they made a message about the use of your ID and it's data

[spring glen]

fr i hate this 😭

[quick kite]

I think, then after like 14 days you can’t chat at all

[velvet junco]

Ugh, just i am or they just added 3D Short-video Ai Generated on the hellah page..

[slate kraken]

Same... Which means that we only get to use c.ai for 1 hour a day.

[pale wing]

My chats are already on read mode

[plain sentinel]

That suck

[void wave]

Cai age verification is going to become a roblox age verification atp.

[wintry spear]

No, like, they remove your 1 hour and you will be stuck on read mode until you’re 18

[idle ruin]

Is anyone else not able to use the Edit Button, or is it just me?

[pale wing]

So I won't be able to use cai until I reach 18

[slate kraken]

Like, why give our ID, you know what I mean? It's sensitive.

[wintry spear]

You’ve been flagged as a minor. Sorry.

[pale wing]

Great 😭

[idle ruin]

Dang it...

[covert barn]

yup, unless you can verify your age (18+) you'll be stuck on read mode

[wintry spear]

Majority of us have, don’t worry.

[void wave]

I wish mom wouldn't mind me using cai.
Only if I havent chat to the chatbots like that.

[pale wing]

Great 😭😭😭😭

[pale wing]

Fr

[spring glen]

yall i'm gonna quit c.ai, I hate these updates, if they won't fix this then they would lose members. Goodbye, and i'm removing c.ai in my list.

[covert barn]

no more edit button sorry buddy

[quick kite]

Yeah sorry twin 😭

[covert barn]

sorry mate

[hardy breach]

Man 1 hour to chat with AI is crazy (the time is too short)

[slate kraken]

What this is doing is encouraging underaged minors to lie about their age. This isn't solving anything.

[spring glen]

I chat with bots daily around 12* hours a day or so

[bronze ingot]

that was heartbreaking

[void wave]

I'm deleting cai.

[rigid scaffold]

1 hour to chat and then a 24 hour break time like it’s rlly crazy

[wintry spear]

Sad music.

[spring glen]

Yall. uninstall c.ai now.

[covert barn]

like any apps at this point, age verification doesn't stop any kids from lying or using their parents age to lie and use them

[void wave]

REAL. like there's anyone using this app to cope.

[quick kite]

I’m playing a tiny violin for you rn dw twin 😞

[spring glen]

Goodbye, Character.AI, It was a pleasure in your old prime

[bronze ingot]

😢😢😢

[wintry spear]

sad trumpet music.

[weary moon]

Atleast make a system separating these ages 10-12 like gng...at least allow 14-18..so what this app just letting adults use it...💔

[quick kite]

YEAHHH LETS GO ON STRIKE😝

[spring glen]

Sad, dramatic music plays

[covert barn]

you guys are gonna make me cry...

[void wave]

almost all apps will become roblox age verification (trust) 🥶🥶

[bronze ingot]

why did i get to say goodbye so soon

[velvet junco]

Raining.mp3

[wintry spear]

Because of laws.

[hollow arrow]

do you guys think that they just won't ban us all in 13-14 days

[spring glen]

This is not Roblox blud 😭

[slate kraken]

Why do we use c.ai when we could socialize? 1. We are shy/awkward. 2. We are trying to cope and find comfort in this otherwise lonely and cruel world. And they're taking it away. Like, what are we supposed to do?

[weary moon]

Aw men...

[spring glen]

ai bots

[plain sentinel]

Not true, I use it cause I like it

[wintry spear]

They won’t ban, just revoke our texting right

[urban schooner]

Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse...

[weary moon]

No like separate the ages for the verification requirements I didn't say anything about scanning faces and using ID.

[slate kraken]

Sorry, also that.

[glass flare]

This time limit is so annoying

[rigid scaffold]

Made a chatting app and took away chatting is so funny to me

[hollow arrow]

i feel like it's practically the same thing

[weary moon]

Absolute...

cinema.

[quick kite]

I LOVE YOUR PFP HSR SPOTTED🔥

[wintry spear]

cri.

[void wave]

LMAO true. Like why made the app if the laws is just going to like make your chat have a limit time.

[pale wing]

I'm really pissed off at this new update, they shouldn't limit underaged people to not have full access to cai maybe they should list 18+ characters and not removing full access, some people treat cai as someone to talk to or have entertainment even when they feel down and needs comfort 😭🙏

[glass flare]

THANK YOU!!!

[weary moon]

Gng I can't even sit still without talking to anything.!

[slate kraken]

You've read my mind, friend.

[urban schooner]

I'm beginning to think they DO want this app to fail so they can take the holdings and go away quietly.

[wintry spear]

You’re texting us.

[rigid scaffold]

exacrly

[quick kite]

I love hsr I have no idea on how to build my characters but I still love it 😝

[covert barn]

i use it to pass the time because my online friends are offline... great ways to create my own stories too when i feel bored or if i need to train myself to write 500 words essaies

[hollow arrow]

keep the time limit for all i care i just want to keep chatting

[void wave]

Yes!! But unfortunately laws are doing it.

[spring glen]

c.ai is just bare bones now. They made c,ai for chats, and now they take it away, WHAT FUCKING REASON HAS MADE THEM TAKEAWAY CHAT. I just want comfort by chatting with bots. Not to just get locked out. Gng i can't stand a day without C.ai, 1 hour to talk, and then a 24 hour break? What the fuck, Character.AI?!?!

[wintry spear]

Laws.

[hardy breach]

1 hour is too short
24 is too long

[quick kite]

Dumb laws 😞

[slate kraken]

Share holdings?

[wintry spear]

Multiple online articles state that some countries are planning to restrict ai chat bot apps to 18+ users only— of the apps do not obey by these laws, they are at risk of getting a fine. (eSafety commissioner, Uk laws, California laws.)
They did the update because of a law in their state. If they did not obey the law, they would’ve been deleted or face fines worth tens of millions. <— this.

[urban schooner]

Yeah

[cobalt mist]

And it was end of my 1 hour limit. Great.

[hardy breach]

The limit time and the break isn't balanced it's short and too long

[weary moon]

Oh yeah mb.

[covert barn]

the issues is that they penalize countries that don't necessarily have those restrictions...

[void wave]

These laws are so bullshit and just straight up shit as hell.

[tulip bobcat]

i can’t even get an email back i’ve been locked out of my account for three weeks and i pay for
plus

[severe tinsel]

They didn't have to do it globally

[spring glen]

i get it, government decisions. But, Didn't they say to not share their information online?

[quick kite]

How was your one hour ☺️

[covert barn]

did you try a ticket?

[pale wing]

Instead of removing full access maybe list 18+ characters? Some people really need someone to talk to

[wintry spear]

?

[hollow arrow]

they didn't have to do it in every state

[tulip bobcat]

ywah like three

[pale wing]

Agreed

[tulip bobcat]

i had mods bump them up but nothing

[urban schooner]

Okay, that by itself wouldn't be so bad, if C.AI didn't make it to which everyone would be in trouble because of its terrible programming.

[spring glen]

The government used to say to NOT SHARE ANY PRIVATE INFORMATION, LIKE YOUR AGE. This is the exact opposite of what they said

[cobalt mist]

as well as possible, out of fear that it will close at any moment.

[wintry spear]

Honestly, they made it too abrupt. They should done 5 hours a day one week, and then 4 hours a day one week, and then ect.

[covert barn]

oh...idk what to say, i mean if you could reset your password maybe it could have helped

[pale wing]

I literally cried when I couldn't chat

[hardy breach]

Well I didn't even have a 1 hour chit chat cause CAI for some reason detect me as chatting even tho am not and thank you CAI for not letting me chat with AI for one day-

[wintry spear]

Used to. Now, they’re not concerned about people using ID to verify age.

[tulip bobcat]

yeah i tried but it just makes a new account 💔💔💔

[covert barn]

oh...sorry to hear that

[slate kraken]

That's crueler.

[wintry spear]

It isn’t the programming itself. It’s because it’s an ai chat app.

[quick kite]

Realest thing I heard today you gotta make every message count bru 😭 I spend like one hour tryna find a good response how am I supposed to speed things up

[wintry spear]

But you’ll have more time to adapt. Everyone’s different, I suppose.

[pale wing]

They SHOULD LIST 18+ CHARAS AND BLOCK THEM FROM UNDERAGE PPL

[wintry spear]

Blame the law.

[slate kraken]

And here they are, asking for government id.

[hardy breach]

My mind said: "This should be a simple AI chatting"
And what shit literally happened is all worst decisions

[slate kraken]

Obviously.

[glass flare]

If we put our Government cards will the time limit appear?

[urban schooner]

No, see what I mean is, if their programming was better, AND if they used other forms of verification that didn't involve showing your ID, then this would be a bit more tolerable.

[cobalt mist]

fr what are we suppose to do in our free time now???

[brisk hatch]

Genuinely cai gets worse with every update dawg

[pale wing]

Why globally.

[wintry spear]

I agree.

[hardy breach]

Hell nah I ain't giving up one for shit

[severe tinsel]

Yeah WHY globally

[quick kite]

Oooo you could play like video games😝

[covert barn]

i don't understand why they didn't make a -18 chat filter and +18 chat filter that way people can still talk to bots but if they don't do the age verification they cannot talk to specific bots (like a tag system where people add +18 or -18 to their bots so that way the filter automatically recommends you the right ones and no one is penalized)

[brisk hatch]

Anko😛

[wintry spear]

Because they’re in a state that makes them do it globally, I think.

[urban schooner]

Because that costs MONEY! 🤑

[pale wing]

Exactly my point!

[glass flare]

How many messages can you send

[errant jewel]

Research Stakeholder Capitalism, then you'll understand why.

[slate kraken]

I mean, why would we? It's sensitive, no?

[brisk hatch]

1 hour worth of messages

[wintry spear]

Furthermore, people always find a way to bypass a filter.. which is why they’re probably not doing -18 chats.

[glass flare]

Wow!

[covert barn]

i know but still, discord has one for forums, c.ai could use that as an exemple and implement it in their app

[cobalt mist]

i know but i just wanna chat with the fictional characters 🙁

[brisk hatch]

Deadahhh ceo said theyre gon listen to the users and did NOT do shit💔💔💔💔

[pale wing]

Fr

[hollow arrow]

in like 13-14 days they'll make you be in read mode and you won't be able to chat at all

[urban schooner]

Yeah, well, even Discord is not that greedy...yet.

[wintry spear]

My brain’s too fried for that currently.

[pale wing]

1 hour is too little and plus they did it so suddenly

[quick kite]

Well they did say LISTEN, not listen and actually care 😭

[brisk hatch]

Fair enough

[pale wing]

Like the sudden change

[spring glen]

The CEO thought 'Hmm, good update! Let's use it! Should keep the kids away!' (throws tomato)

[glass flare]

Why? cries

[wintry spear]

Honestly, what are we trying to achieve by discussing our concerns in this channel? Comfort? It’s comforting ngl.

[errant jewel]

There is the new voting system on the labs.character.ai site where you can submit ideas and vote for other people's ideas.

[slate kraken]

cries

[quick kite]

I like complaining like an old person 😋 talking about the good old days

[pale wing]

I'M GOING THERE RN.

[covert barn]

they aren't, they are pretty generous if you look at the orbs, you can get them for free if you share a game in a voc for 15min or even if you watch a short video of theirs to introduce a new game to have you get decorations for your profil without needing to use your credit card to pay

[unique apex]

I hate this so much

[wintry spear]

Mourns the loss of texting rights on c.ai

[brisk hatch]

We should like… delete all of our accounts ✌️

[wintry spear]

2 more years…

[unique apex]

🙏😭

[hardy breach]

O_o

[errant jewel]

Whether they'll actually listen to the ideas that get voted for is a different thing. Knowing C.AI devs, they probably won't listen fully.

[slate kraken]

You're probably right, pal.

[wintry spear]

I’ll have a big calendar in my room and mark down the days.

[spring glen]

They made the app to chat with bots, NOT TO ACT LIKE FREAKING ROBLOX IN LATE 2025.

[velvet junco]

It felt like a jail gng.

[severe tinsel]

Look this is gonna be a scary take

[wintry spear]

That was before the laws came ngl

[errant jewel]

Group Chats still don't work on the websites and I've been sending tickets about the issue for AGES

[zealous rock]

Is there any way to toggle off the new image generation at the bottom left of chat responses? I keep accidentally hitting it.

[hardy breach]

Wow roblox spread the virus

[urban schooner]

Exactly. That's why I said "yet". Give it another year or two, they'll think of something. I don't have much faith in big companies anymore.

[severe tinsel]

I'll say it in dms

[quick kite]

Real it’s best to start drawing tally marks on the wall already 😭

[spring glen]

why'd they use fucking persona tbh 😭

[covert barn]

understandable

[velvet junco]

Fr🥀

[wintry spear]

What other verifications could there be other than selfie? (Excluding google.)

[hardy breach]

I DON'T KNOW

[covert barn]

ID?

[wintry spear]

People don’t want to do ID

[covert barn]

check pins

[cobalt mist]

u guys are lucky in our counry they are planning to to this age thing to all social meadia games and stuff

[spring glen]

No. NO ID.

[uneven wolf]

I MANAGED TO BYPASS IT-

[severe tinsel]

People don't wanna do faces

[slate kraken]

Anything that doesn't involve giving your government issued id, duh!

[graceful dawn]

how?

[covert barn]

wait how???

[quick kite]

Nah are you fr fr fr?😦

[errant jewel]

Britain?

[spring glen]

just use your parents' face or an adult's ID to bupass it

[cobalt mist]

Turkey

[wintry spear]

There’s also Australia.

[spark magnet]

Bro I have 8 hours left I’m sobbing 😭😭

[rigid scaffold]

watch out, they’re gonna get u

[covert barn]

check pins

[urban schooner]

They could've done what Discord did, where they look at everyone's texting behavior to determine adult status. Oh, wait, they're trying that, but the OPPOSITE reaction is happening!

[zealous rock]

Unless they've announced something different.. they already assured everyone that they don't have to upload an ID to verify.

[quick kite]

Maybe saying it here isn’t a great idea they’re watching 😞

[pale wing]

I had one hour

[glass flare]

8 Hours yall

[graceful dawn]

till?

[uneven wolf]

Oh. Why i did said it

[hardy breach]

Also 8 hours and am on the floor

[wintry spear]

They did that with the app activity and stuff, but it didn’t work well enough, I think. (They tracked when users got on and what apps they used)

[cobalt mist]

It gave me 10

[spark magnet]

It was once 23

[glass flare]

Yuh

[spring glen]

23 hours!!!

[urban schooner]

Yeah, well, now it's doing the exact opposite of what it was intending.

[zealous rock]

Hours for what?

[severe tinsel]

Well I haven't used in like 14 hours I don't even know if I got timed out

[covert barn]

timer i guess

[wintry spear]

Cool down for chat.

[cobalt mist]

to be able to use chat

[spark magnet]

Before you can chat again

[spring glen]

yall. they should've gave us 23 hours to chat

[plush forge]

Why do we get only 1 hour a day, I looked at the changes

[zealous rock]

My god.. 8 hours for a COOL down? O.o

[severe tinsel]

Worst, it's persona

[unique apex]

Bruh I have 8 more hours

[graceful dawn]

yeah and they're using persona

[covert barn]

yup and ID check if it doesn't work (check pins)

[chrome nacelle]

Oh my god I swear I’m losing my mind that we got a limit for chatting

[cobalt mist]

face and id

[hexed ether]

i have 8 hours left im dead-

[wintry spear]

Welcome back

[quick kite]

Yall are making it sound like you only got hours until you’re erased from existence 😭

[cobalt mist]

fr c.ai is for chatting and now we can't

[chrome nacelle]

Same my chat just got good

[hardy breach]

I got cool down for absolutely no reason cause for some reason the app said am using it so thank you that's a day of CHAT WASTED

[spring glen]

editing's gone.

[granite sable]

Am i the only one who cant edit the bots messages-??

[graceful dawn]

i'm literally running a timer rn to see where this goes lmao, i have c.ai running in the bg
i wanna see how bad this actually is for myself

[severe tinsel]

I saw someone after verifying.. They still got a time limit.

[spark magnet]

Only 8 hours until the reaping

[wintry spear]

You’ve been flagged

[pale wing]

For anyone who didnt see my opinion: I'm really pissed off at this new update, they shouldn't limit underaged people to not have full access to cai maybe they should list 18+ characters and not removing full access, some people treat cai as someone to talk to or have entertainment even when they feel down and needs comfort 😭🙏

[spring glen]

[rigid scaffold]

i feel like using ai to see if ur over 18 isnt…a good idea. They should at least put people on a wait list

[slate kraken]

No.

[cobalt mist]

you got flagged probably

[hexed ether]

REALLL

[urban schooner]

You guys think they're gonna make a Surprised Pikachu Face when they realize that they've effectively caused everyone's accounts to be blocked, reducing foot traffic?

[quick kite]

It was nice knowing you twin I’ll miss you 😞

[spring glen]

i did NOT do the verification

[covert barn]

i like to watch people's feedbacks on the update, helps feeling better because i know it's not just a minority that doesn't like the current update

[chrome nacelle]

No your lying

[zealous rock]

Where have they announced this change? They have said multiple times in announcements that IDs are not required. Just a face scan to a program called Persona I think.

[graceful dawn]

i can't edit them either, idk if i got flagged or if it's a update

[urban schooner]

DON'T use Persona.

[pale wing]

Yes

[severe tinsel]

I swear I saw it

[chrome nacelle]

😭😭

[hardy breach]

I wanna see what's inside their head

[hexed ether]

im not doin no verification sorry not sorry🤷🏻‍♀️

[slate kraken]

You need to verify using your face and government issued id.

[graceful dawn]

ok

[wintry spear]

There’s a lot of mixed people.
Why are some sayings it’s safe and others saying it is not?

[cobalt mist]

Fr

[regal wren]

Any good alternatives to c.ai

[ivory rampart]

Guys, scan face is safe? I think it kinda "Private"💀

[covert barn]

i did the face check, didn't work so they asked for my ID and it worked so now i'm back to talking with my bots without a timer

[chrome nacelle]

Not really

[spark magnet]

I’ll miss you too twin

[zealous rock]

? I'm just recalling what they said. I already verified a while back with a scan of my face.

[hollow dagger]

Some people are addicted to it in an unhealthy way tho

[plain sentinel]

Still, why did characters AI add Verify AGE?

[cobalt mist]

persona stole a bunch of persons information in my country

[covert barn]

check pins

[wintry spear]

Hello..? Laws?

[quick kite]

Laws 😭

[unique apex]

I’m on the website how do I verify my age?

[slate kraken]

What about the edit?

[sharp gorge]

Because of new laws

[hollow dagger]

So minors wouldn't use it

[zealous rock]

That's good 🙂 I'm glad you managed. I do remember them mentioning in some cases they might ask for an ID if their scan didn't work.

[urban schooner]

Persona is caught in a massive lawsuit because peoples' info got leaked.

[severe tinsel]

Nobody Wins,
Verified or not
Because even SOME verified people get time limits

[wintry spear]

Source?

[graceful dawn]

question: if you use it for lets say 30 minutes today, close your pc and just like go about your day and you get on it the next day and use it for 30 minutes, will you get the time limit? or is it like refreshing daily

[cobalt mist]

wdym i didn't get it

[wintry spear]

Guys I’m neutral, do we have sources that shows that persona has info leaked? (Actual evidence that isn’t google ai.)

[chrome nacelle]

I just upgraded to plus and now this

[covert barn]

edit isn't there anymore, they removed it i guess because no matter the bot or the convo i can't edit anything anymore

[quick kite]

Real, after the latest update Cai kinda js..doesn’t work 😭

[covert barn]

yeah check pins

[pale wing]

Still crying rn 😭😭🙏

[zealous rock]

😮 Oooh dang. Well thank goodness all they have is my face 😆

[severe tinsel]

Why are we even trying and hoping

[cobalt mist]

ohh, i have bunch of videos but they are in Turkish, if you will watch them with captions, i can send it

[urban schooner]

There are lawsuits in progress right now.

[slate kraken]

I think it refreshes daily. You can't use it for more than 1 hour every day without verifying.

[unique apex]

We should stop using it until they take back the update

[chrome nacelle]

Man I used c.ai for my grammar and my creativity 😭😭

[plain sentinel]

But then I cant use character AI, cause I dont have a ID

[wintry spear]

Thank you. Some people a few hours ago said that it’s misinformation

[ivory rampart]

I wonder is that necessary?🗿

[covert barn]

huh???

[dull yoke]

They'll end up losing more money than if they did a -18 filter cause people won't chat anymore

[zealous rock]

Ooooh I see

[urban schooner]

Don't underestimate the internet, my friend. Deepfakes exist for a reason.

[severe tinsel]

What's even the point if we can't even be freed from the time limit

[wintry spear]

You can’t trust the media, though… some do it for views.

[chrome nacelle]

That would be a great idea tbh

[covert barn]

my dumb ass who used my ID...

[unique apex]

Most people who use the app are minors so they’ll lose most of their users

[regal wren]

Omg am just going to use my friends I'd at this point

[misty cloak]

Tbh, I think what could be better and be a little less annoying is changing the one hour to about five or six hours. Cause like, one is too little, for me, at least

[slate kraken]

Minors, as in 16 or 17.

[wintry spear]

That may be wrong. Someone earlier said the ceo told that 30-40% of the users are minors.

[plain sentinel]

But then what if I dont have an ID?

[south thicket]

came back from school. ok

[unkempt patio]

Deadass agree

[unique apex]

Both

[quick kite]

Dude yeah, some people don’t even wanna touch their accounts cuz they’re scared they’re gonna get locked out of their account (me). Either people can’t chat or just won’t from paranoia of losing everything on their account😭

[urban schooner]

Oh no...

[graceful dawn]

true, if you look it up it says that only 10% of the users are minors, but that's because most of the people faked their age

[hollow dagger]

Yeah because you're a minor, that's the idea

[zealous rock]

Uh, trust me I know. I have a degree in communication and new media. Been around long enough to see it all. But my face is something already on the Internet. Not going to fret over persona having a copy.

[plain sentinel]

Im not a minor

[chrome nacelle]

Fr c.ai is the main reason why my English got better in school (I’m German btw)

[glass flare]

If we used Verification will the limit tome stop?

[hollow dagger]

How do you not have an id then

[slate kraken]

Same.

[unique apex]

Then we’re cooked

[wintry spear]

Yeah.

[severe tinsel]

There's no win
There's no hope for us
What is c.ai even doing at this point

[sharp gorge]

Real

[glass flare]

Im 21

[plain sentinel]

Don't ask...

[south thicket]

I dont think they trust it or know?? idk

[covert barn]

i'm gonna pray they won't leak my info because i ain't ready for identity thief

[wintry spear]

Just find alternatives, honestly.

[slate kraken]

What about edit?

[quick kite]

Tryna see how much they can get away with atp

[chrome nacelle]

My grammar got better, I gave a greater understanding, my vocabulary grew and much more, but now they did that😭

[urban schooner]

Okay... You do you. I'm just saying I really don't recommend that.

[severe tinsel]

They're the biggest ragebaiter

[wintry spear]

I’m not sure about edit, sorry.

[unique apex]

Honestly I think we should stop using it until they take this update away

[slate kraken]

Yeah, like they did with filter.

[sly geyser]

they wont get away with everything

[wintry spear]

Don’t get too stressed because no one is 100% sure that persona leaks information. There are mixed views everywhere.

[gritty tundra]

i used my gov id and it said it wasn’t me! yay!

[zealous rock]

I'm just grateful it worked for me and I can use the app properly as an adult. I can image it's a headache to be limited when you are in fact of age.

I do wish they would stop adding image generation everywhere though. Came on today to see the new image generation at the bottom of my chat responses and I keep accidentally clicking it.

[bright horizon]

Halloo

[sharp gorge]

It'll be long

[urban schooner]

I don't know how likely a chance it'll be... But...if anything changes...
