[frozen idol]

Excuse me I ain't paying no dollar to speak TO AN AI

[shadow carbon]

Ik just saying

[obtuse peak]

alright.

[heavy terrace]

Its okay if you dont have money Not like they can steal some

[acoustic parrot]

RIGHT??? LIKE WHY?

[halcyon cypress]

why are people always shocked by subscription models lol websites and apps dont pay for themselves

[shadow carbon]

Fr

[unique jetty]

FRR Thats like having to buy free pizza

[heavy grove]

Unfortunately, that's true... most AI chatbot services require subscriptions that are around 10.00$ to 15.00$.

[halcyon cypress]

AI is very expensive to run unfortunately

[frozen idol]

Blud I ain't paying NO CENT FOR AN AI

[heavy grove]

Not even surprised either, I've seen social medias having it as well. Even Discord.

[acoustic parrot]

in my country that's like around 600 lol so expensiveeee

[halcyon cypress]

good thing no one is forcing you but then you have to deal w ads and stuff, thats the trade off

[tawny kettle]

ure not paying to speak to a bot ure paying for the experience

[heavy grove]

Damn...

[frozen idol]

Blud just leave the app and rejoin it's easy as that

[acoustic parrot]

yeah... 😔😔✊🏻

[obtuse peak]

I’m going to disappear for a while.

Goodbye, people of c.at-discussion. ^^

[shadow carbon]

Idc about adds i care about ass reading mode

[frozen idol]

Aight chat

[plucky river]

yea sorry mentioning alternatives here is bannable XD

[fallen acorn]

I'll try to not chat too fast... note taken...

[frozen idol]

WITH A VPN IM GOING TO CHINA

[unique jetty]

What if we just send papers saying stuff like "NO AGE VERIFICATION" send it to c.ai dev like 5 times everyday then the dev will get annoyed and maybe they will remove the update

[tranquil lantern]

@sterile sage is it okay to ask a simple question?

[tawny kettle]

yes that will totally work lets do that

[frozen idol]

Mhm

[acoustic parrot]

they can't it's the law if they don't do it CA.I will get deleted permanently...

[heavy terrace]

I can smell the sarcasm

[candid axle]

Is c.ai not working for anyone else?

[unique jetty]

Really?

[frozen idol]

#nochina!

Im sorry thats racist. -

[acoustic parrot]

yes

[heavy terrace]

@slate ruin

[hoary sage]

#nochina

[acoustic parrot]

CA.I can't do anything if it's the law in their country if they don't follow it they get in trouble

[wintry spear]

Finally.

[frozen idol]

AYO CHILL

[acoustic parrot]

ayy hiii again this guy has a lot of information lol

[wintry spear]

I felt like I was walking down a hall of shame when I had to be Ringo.

[acoustic parrot]

lol

[fallen acorn]

Now... I am gonna take a short break because I did not realize how lengthy my chattiness can be (No sarcasm intended, I just realized this about myself whenever I found someone or people to talk with)

[timber canopy]

LMFAO

[frozen idol]

Lol

[wintry spear]

Same here.. after all, I did mention that I had to do something important at 6pm.. (it is 6:05pm).

[frozen idol]

AHHH

[frozen idol]

I did not say #nochina trust

[tranquil lantern]

MissMikasa is going to get you, trust me/jkjk

[balmy urchin]

I have been stuck on reading mode for more then 24 hours💀💀

[wintry spear]

Reading mode lasts until you verify as 18+.

[frozen idol]

Wait a minute can't we just go back and get an older version of Cai that dosent have the age verification

[fresh dock]

Patched

[timber canopy]

verify as 18+ to get rid of it

[wintry spear]

They patched that.

[heavy terrace]

They patched it up

[frozen idol]

Oh

[timber canopy]

It got patched cuz ppl were announcing it HERE.

[frozen idol]

Uh don't look at me I said it when it was patched

[timber canopy]

Not you. Other ppl.

[heavy terrace]

I dont think so because it is so.. quick? I think dev already thought about it

[frozen idol]

GUYS TOP 3 CANCELLED GAMES

[timber canopy]

#y'allracist💔

[heavy terrace]

@neat granite can you do something about this kid? He wrote indian first before china

[odd fable]

why is cai so slow and doesn’t give answers🙏🏻💔

[tranquil lantern]

Waiting for bro to be timedout

[frozen idol]

CHAT ITS SATIRE CHILL

[heavy terrace]

Genuinely, fuck off

[frozen idol]

Dayum what gotchu so angry for

[timber canopy]

[frozen idol]

People these days always so angry

[frigid hearth]

||Touch grass||

[frozen idol]

I DID

[fresh dock]

[frigid hearth]

That a good thing

[frozen idol]

CHINA

-# bro what's up with China and me

[tranquil lantern]

Watching this chat rage is much more enjoyable then watching Cai bug out

[tawny kettle]

what was the joke cai discussion

[nocturne bison]

Does anyone have a way to bypass the thing 💔

[bright horizon]

Nah uh

[tranquil lantern]

Patched

[timber canopy]

verify. And it got patched.

[timber canopy]

Ngl? Yeah

[tidal carbon]

Ay guys did they fixed the app already?

[tranquil lantern]

Nope

[tidal carbon]

Marvelous (it is NOT marvelous)

[smoky silo]

Just wanted to say thanks for recommending spicy chai. It takes some adjusting to but for the most part good

[ocean zealot]

I'm just waiting for the verification to be fixed so it actually works

[bright horizon]

Yes it's wonderful /j 😊

[kind pasture]

is everyone just hating on c.ai n ow

[halcyon sparrow]

Back

[fresh dock]

Yes

[tidal carbon]

I wish c.ai was

[bright horizon]

[cosmic parrot]

“Reading mode” its a chatting app oml😭

[halcyon cypress]

not for you

its a reading app now

[bright horizon]

That chatting app got sued multiple times

[obtuse peak]

Ringo has returned!

[cosmic parrot]

Reading what i already read🥹

[halcyon cypress]

finally have a few hours to myself and this dumb rat keeps giving these garbage responses

[latent karma]

books are better than cai

[bright horizon]

🪤

[vestal hill]

Honestly might try another app

[halcyon cypress]

i encourage everyone to read books

[cosmic parrot]

I read fanfiction and sometimes books

[halcyon cypress]

they said they're fixing deep rat but i don't even believe them

[vestal hill]

How did it come to this

[lament pine]

I recommend something better….

✨fanfics✨

[halcyon cypress]

i liked fanfic more when i was younger but these days there are no ships i care about enough to bother

[nocturne bison]

Ngl I'm a minor I want reading mode to be deleted that's it in my honest opinion the break time for like 15 hours was good 💔

[lament pine]

Fair enough!

[sweet fern]

Does anyone want a ao3 invite link

wait no

sorry

[ocean zealot]

Under 14s - locked to reading mode until verification
14-17 - only allowed to chat for an hour to an hour 30 a day
18+ - no time restrictions

[nocturne bison]

Okay I actually have to agree with this

[ocean zealot]

That's what most people have said when I said what I did

[devout delta]

How people still chat without verification?

[tawny kettle]

bias the devs love me

[errant jackal]

it could be because they haven't been age-verified yet

[pine monolith]

why can i not bloody chat

[still oar]

Whats wrong with the chat?

[eternal flower]

Everything 💜

[valid locust]

Everything is broken wow

[main flame]

Dawg yesterday someone was debating 16 year olds are mature enough and shouldn't have limits or sum like that✌️😭

[tidal carbon]

I didn't went through any verification or reading mode stuff so far

[tulip sky]

You did not get flagged, then

[tidal carbon]

Maybe because the email i used for the app was a already age verified on Google? Idk, never really paid attention to that

[tulip sky]

It might be the reason, but even age verified users report that they have been flagged as minors, so I doubt it is that alone

[golden mortar]

In some places 16 is legally adult

But I agree it’s stupid

[main flame]

They have not experienced balkan 16 year olds to say shit like that

[grim willow]

Hello everyone, does anyone here using CAI right now? The replies seems odd and incomplete. It had a very bad response right now... 😭😭😭

[tulip sky]

Legally adult does not equal mature. We finish developing around early to mid 20's, but to my knowledge no country has that as the age of being a legal adult.

[golden mortar]

Yeah the app is funny rn

[tulip sky]

C.AI 's systems are passing a bloodclot, the devs are fixing it

[golden mortar]

I was just saying, I don’t agree with 16 being mature either way

[tidal carbon]

Yk, i took a quick glance at the Status page, and i'm a bit worried about the extreme lash out of some people here since the devs seems to actively fix issues here and there. Last time they did it was 5 days ago so yeaa they'll fix it all soon, just gotta be patient

[main flame]

Btu anyway fuck California law either way

[golden mortar]

Ong

[grim willow]

Okie, I thought it was only me experiencing it. 😭😭😭

[grim willow]

Yup, I will thanks for the info 😘

[golden mortar]

C.ai should’ve stayed niche
I started using it back in early 2023

[tulip sky]

If you are experiencing a bug that is not UI related, chances are you are not the only one.

[tidal carbon]

Don't mind it, maybe later today it'll be fixed up

[main flame]

But ig they had no choice bcz they either did that or paid money fir every user breaking the law

[tidal carbon]

They wouldn't last 3 days lmao

[main flame]

Which would hurt the company more that this

[golden mortar]

California would’ve made them do it either way

[main flame]

It was either security measures or 500 to 1.000$ for each user

And 50million user on Google play store would fuck them up alone include the ones on apple store they're bankrupt

[golden mortar]

They’re losing money either way

[main flame]

Yea because the marketing team is doing bs

[golden mortar]

Like it really didn’t even matter which option they picked they’re losing money on both scenarios

[tulip sky]

I would usually, in defense, say that they are powerless to it, but they add a whole bunch of features nobody uses that still drain money to maintain, lmao

[tidal carbon]

Bruh other apps are using C.ai logo to state them as absolute trash 😭 the marketing team ain't doing NOTHING

[golden mortar]

The marketing team is being paid for doing absolutely nothing

[tidal carbon]

I saw ads in C.ai about other AI chat apps trashtalking C.AI ITSELF lmao

[main flame]

Marketing saves pretty much everything as I've seen in most companies

[tulip sky]

Hey I mean one downfull is another's opportunity 😭

[low dragon]

do people actually still uses this app?

[golden mortar]

Yes

[tulip sky]

Yes

[tidal carbon]

Talk about oportunity 😭 i've seen three so far doing that

[errant jackal]

yes, only some people are willing to stay

[main flame]

C.ai marketing team hating on their own app😭

[fading smelt]

ik

[tidal carbon]

When it isn't broken, it's actually quite good if you ignore the "send 7 messages and watch one ad" thing

[fading smelt]

SOME people are adults and use cai btw

[low dragon]

good for yall, I've already switch to another one, left this app a year and a half ago

[main flame]

Most c.ai users are adults

[tulip sky]

I've surprisingly not come across very many ads when I used to use it

[tidal carbon]

I wonder where's the problem

[halcyon sparrow]

Hi I am new to cai

[fading smelt]

wdym

[low dragon]

bad time to join ngl

[tidal carbon]

I see it very often tbh, when it ain't showing CoC ads

[main flame]

What they said

[halcyon sparrow]

Why?

[tidal carbon]

At least i'm not trying to break the laws being a minor and trying to do +18 stuff inside the app lmao

[obsidian wadi]

My cai is only on the age verify thing, i haven't got limit swipe and go on
Ig its a good thing mine slow

[tulip sky]

Back when ads were instated for me, they only popped up like every sixth time I opened a chat with another bot,,

[fading smelt]

ok

[tulip sky]

Not many compared to what I've seen people say

[low dragon]

btw did the app moderation ease up, even a little? can I do action and fights in the chats again?

[tulip sky]

The filter is broken at the moment.

[tidal carbon]

Maybe it can vary from people to people but i'm not one to know

[obsidian wadi]

Ppl on tiktok saying to use dns, u won't get any ads on app

[main flame]

I didn't have ads when using c.ai

[tulip sky]

I mean when I look at how the update is affecting everyone it's probably very individual

[low dragon]

back when I used cai ads pop up when I enter or leave a character chat

[main flame]

Some people used c.ai to cope or rp(like i did) i don't they are manh People that used it for weird stuff

[tulip sky]

I don't use character.ai anymore anyway, but regardless I don't care much. I had very minimal ads. A single 5 second ad every now and then doesn't bother me,

[wheat forge]

Guys is it just me or they still haven't fixed the chat error bug and it's been hours, what's happening😔

[tulip sky]

There is a surprising and honestly overwhelming amount of people who use it for 18+ purposes, alongside cope and roleplay. Not like cope is particularly healthy or fully safe either.

[tidal carbon]

Yea they didn't, just wait until they do

[obsidian wadi]

Same for me, the ad only appear if I start a new chat
Not every reply

[tulip sky]

The devs are working on it, it's just a very big bug at the moment.

[wheat forge]

Okay ty❤️

[main flame]

Meh this update kinda ruined my rp on the fucking invincible universe

[tulip sky]

Just use it as the base for a fanfic or something,, you'll be fine

[calm sand]

Age verification

[main flame]

I made a whole different species 😭✌️

[tulip sky]

You can still write about said whole different species.

[main flame]

Prob or just age verify and have restrictions

I prefer chatting with 1 hour limit a day because i dont use the app more than that

[tulip sky]

If you are under 18, you will still be faced with reading mode rather than a one hour limit. Just grab a notebook and pen.

[hollow hull]

Hello all

[tulip sky]

Greetings

[bronze jolt]

guys can somebody tell me why my chats are in only read without any explanation??

[main flame]

[hollow hull]

Flagged as Minor

[main flame]

Age verification needed

[bronze jolt]

Thankss….

[tulip sky]

The app is now 18+ in relations to California Law. You have been flagged as a minor and thus can only read your old chats. If you wish to continue chatting, you have to verify your age, but the verification doesn't work at the moment and you will have to wait until it is fixed.

[bronze jolt]

okayy thxx

[main flame]

For the time being I'll remain the balkan i am and hop on league of legends and learn cs

[frigid hearth]

I don't use the app, but what exactly is happening? Are all minors permanently banned from using the app?

[main flame]

Wouldn't say banned rather restricted from the app

[hollow hull]

From being able to chat, yes. They start weaning you off with timers, but after 2 weeks, you will not be able to chat with bots

Your account wont be deleted, nor your chats.

[frigid hearth]

I think it's a good thing, even if it's a bit overkill for an AI app to restrict everyone for the sake of a handful of overly addicted kids

[tulip sky]

That is not the reason. It is in relations to California Law, users under 18 may not use chatbots.

[lofty saddle]

HI I JUST WOKE UP

[frigid hearth]

I see, Thank you for the clarification

[obsidian wadi]

The age verification, is using id only optional if your face doesn't work?

[hollow hull]

Yes

[lofty saddle]

you gotta use your id if the face verification doesn’t work

[hollow hull]

I only had to use face for age verification

No ID was required of me

[tulip sky]

It will scan your face. If it cannot determine your age then, it will ask for your ID, passport, etc legal documentation that has your DoB. However the verification does not work as of the moment.

[tulip sky]

Congrats! You look old enough and don't need misc documents to confirm your age.

[obsidian wadi]

I haven't try it yet, been off for like a week or so

[hollow hull]

If I had to give ID, I would’ve gladly cancelled my Plus and leave the platform

[tulip sky]

Alright.

[main flame]

Ill grow out beard so ai thinks im 18+

[vestal cloak]

Funi question but couldn’t they just make a popup saying “you confirm to be of the legal age to use this app and will take responsibility of your own usage” and make the users agree on that?

[tulip sky]

When you do, pad your shoulders to make them bigger and broader and scrunch up your face to get wrinkles. /j

[main flame]

Smart

[tranquil flax]

no because thats from the california law they have to add the age verification because of rhat

[lofty saddle]

can’t do that

[tulip sky]

It could be, I'm not fully sure about that, but regardless C.AI has had too many lawsuits so even if that was not by law mandatory it's better off for them.

[main flame]

I saw a kid bypassing a persona age verification and the ai determined he was 106 years old

[vestal cloak]

I see

[tulip sky]

This is killing me yeah man

[lofty saddle]

this is funny 😭

[obsidian wadi]

Well, good for him. Living that long must be a blessing

[tulip sky]

A 106 year old trying to scan their face online

[main flame]

Keep in mind he drew fake beard on him only

[tranquil flax]

what the 😭😭😭

[tranquil flax]

only?????

[main flame]

Ye

[lofty saddle]

i thought he used another face for it makes sense

[errant jackal]

the what 💀.. who...

[fervent nest]

Well darn I still cant chat in c.ai

[tranquil flax]

damn it i have to do that then to bypass /j

[main flame]

Idk prob a kid to bypass robloxes verification 😭

[lofty saddle]

are you stuck in reading mode?

[tulip sky]

Well, typically you can't if you haven't succesfully verified your age

[fervent nest]

Sadly yes I am stuck in it

[tranquil flax]

either try to bypass or just scan ur face/id IF ur 18+

[errant jackal]

I didn't even think of using tricks like that💀🗿

[vestal cloak]

Lmao

[lofty saddle]

verify to be 18+ when the verification works properly again

[wintry spear]

Hello, world.

[tulip sky]

It's currently, as far as I know, not possible to bypass.

[main flame]

Didn't affect me on roblox im old enough for vc but not old enough to chat with ais ig

[lofty saddle]

[tranquil flax]

yeah, considering everyone spoiled it out to the public 😭😭😭😭

[tulip sky]

Greetings

[quasi patio]

wtf is happening to c.ai?

[tranquil flax]

hello welcome

[wintry spear]

The points you made a few hours ago were good, I just couldn’t tell you, as I was muted.

[tulip sky]

A California Law got passed, users under 18 may not use chatbots.

[lofty saddle]

they talked about getting the older version of the app so many times that they patched it

[obsidian wadi]

The ppl rat themselves out...

[tulip sky]

I may have greyout amnesia and so I'm not quite sure which points you mean, but thank you so much nonetheless!

[quasi patio]

i am not letting them steal my identity because they wanna see my id..im not even in the usa or us either..here they said ''oh you gota be 16 or older'' now 18??

[wintry spear]

Sorry.

[tulip sky]

No reason to apologize, it's okay !!

[wintry spear]

Because they’re located in California, they’ve got to give the update to all their global users.

[lofty saddle]

persona is safe

it may have your data, but they won’t sell your data anywhere and will delete it in a week

no ‘data breach’ will happen

[quasi patio]

ooohhhhh...okay

[tranquil flax]

now they wonder why the method doesnt work 😭💔

[tulip sky]

Persona does not steal your identity? Was this not known? The only breach was frontend and no data was leaked. This is misinformation. When you agreed to C.AI's ToS, you agreed to follow Californian laws as that is where they are located.

[lofty saddle]

right. haha 😭

[quasi patio]

not gonna give them my id though..

[tulip sky]

Then do not. That is fine. You still should refrain from spreading misinformation.

[wintry spear]

A lot of individuals are spreading misinformation about Persona because they do not like the new update, which is leading people to assume Persona sells information.

[lofty saddle]

if you pass the verification with your face, you don’t need to give an id

[obsidian wadi]

Look old enough to pass the verification
Or draw a beard, if that method still work lol.

[tranquil flax]

their fault for saying it loud here 😭

[quasi patio]

i didn't click on agree to terms and policy i clicked on disagree with all or sum like that

[lofty saddle]

some people just CANT gatekeep anything nowadays

[tulip sky]

It is very unreasonable and stupid. Regardless people should be researching on their own before they make such accusations and claims

[quasi patio]

on my id? bcs the pop upsaid they needed my id card to verify it

[wintry spear]

Agreed.

Sadly, some individuals act on emotions instead of logic.

[tulip sky]

If you did not agree to their bare minimum ToS, you would not have been granted access.

[tranquil flax]

agreed, its better for them to keep their mouth shut from the start if they wanna bypass 😒

[tulip sky]

Yes, that is unfortunate,,

[obsidian wadi]

I was making a joke
A dude said a kid bypass the verification by drawing a beard

[tulip sky]

That is because the AI failed to determine your age group from your face alone. Only then will they request documentation containing your DoB.

[lofty saddle]

some people just don’t do research and trust other people with information and such. i wish they could’ve just.. googled a quick search about that topic, just to be sure of what they read is true

[lofty saddle]

so true

[wintry spear]

Zes, have you seen the amount of people asking whether the ‘TikTok’ information was reliable?

[quasi patio]

still have full access though. i clicked the not agreeing button thing on both the app and teh web when i was on my phone

[tulip sky]

It's very disappointing,

[lofty saddle]

some people let their beards grow so they can pass the verification with their face

[quasi patio]

oohh okay

[tulip sky]

You probably denied the optional. You agreed to their base laws and terms, because if you did not, you would not have access.

[tranquil flax]

now we wait for others to find a method and watch it get patched as fast as light 😭😭😭

[lofty saddle]

some, yeah. mostly in comment sections

“is this true?” and then there’s 100 replies all saying misinformation — sometimes.

but, yeah, it can happen

[quasi patio]

oohh yeah thta makes more sense..

[lofty saddle]

i’m not surprised if there is a method going around right now. maybe they’re gatekeeping that HAHA

[wintry spear]

Anyways, Illegal Tea Scientist is doing a wonderful job at informing the people of c.ai about these new updates, so I can now rest.

I’m going to rest for a while.. have a good time, people. ^^

[lofty saddle]

see you later

[tranquil flax]

THATS IMPOSSIBLE no someone HAS to say it loud here or in other other platforms 😭😭😭🙏🙏

[lofty saddle]

that’s fair.. maybe they didnt announce it yet

[tranquil flax]

that yet will change to very soon 😔

[lofty saddle]

that’s what i’m afraid of

[hollow hull]

If they find a method, they should keep quiet about it, like thats the smart thing to do, if they’re so desperate

[weary knot]

Guys, the sad this is for me, i can't chat, just read....

[tranquil flax]

yeah but unfortunately some loud ass people decide to yap about here or somewhere else instead of dms

[lofty saddle]

true. but, you know people - sometimes, they just.. can’t gatekeep anything nowadays

[tranquil flax]

we are doomed if they canr shut up for one thing

[weary knot]

Like i was going to chat now, and then it said "You are no longer able to chat, just read, the memories are saved"

[tranquil flax]

u either have to wait to be 18+ and verify or just leave the app as a whole

[forest tusk]

U prob didn't verify or got tagged as 18-

[lofty saddle]

i’d suggest you verify to be 18+ when you can. right now, you can’t as the verification is really bugged right now, but be patient until it works properly again

[weary knot]

I forgot my stupid ID card at home so i can't verify my age....

[tribal dune]

This is STUPID 😭

[tranquil flax]

at least face scan..? 😭😭😭

[lofty saddle]

there’s all the time in the world to find it. the verification won’t go anywhere

[weary knot]

It doesn't suggest face scan....

[tranquil flax]

oh 😭😭😭😭

[weary knot]

I am doomed, like it's so fun chatting with these characters....

[lofty saddle]

use your id if you find it you got time to find it anyway haha

[weary knot]

Yeah, i am going home later and my ID card is home so yeah i can do it then

[tranquil flax]

yeah but as zes said, do it later because the verification is bugged as heck 😭

[forest tusk]

Crazy that for some reason they're not accepting the IDs of my country so I can't even verify

[weary knot]

Where are you from?

[lofty saddle]

they’re not?

verification is bugged currently. i don’t think it should do that

[forest tusk]

Brazil
I've tried a lot and it never worked :/

[tribal dune]

Why is this app actually devolving...

[tranquil flax]

what??

[forest tusk]

Also other people said the same about me in the Portuguese chat so yeah

[tranquil flax]

what if i told u california law was the reason they added this😀

What's the California law?

[lofty saddle]

that’s just persona acting like it’s broken currently - and it is broken. the verification is bugged, so wait until it works again properly

if you’re that desperate to talk about this and verify your age, maybe try contacting support about ‘age assurance’

[timber canopy]

Apps are required to ask users for their age but there's no obligation for ID and a face scan usually.

[lofty saddle]

it’s.. a lot. try searching about this on google

[tribal dune]

....yo...atp... California can just hop off the platform

[stuck pasture]

I HATE THIS UPDATE,BRING BACK THE OLD C.AI

[tribal dune]

And these freaking ads they have now

[stuck pasture]

Right

[lofty saddle]

that’s just a wish at this point c.ai is based in california, and it won’t get rid of age verification anytime soon

[tribal dune]

[stuck pasture]

It's so bad

[lofty saddle]

you can always get rid of them with charms

[edgy latch]

Good morning good morning (i overslept like a dumbass)

[lofty saddle]

morning ezra !!

[stuck pasture]

You agree right LUMINATK

[forest tusk]

Old versions were great but people couldn't gatekeep it properly so it got patched

[tribal dune]

I could, but I'm usually on and off during the day so one hour is really useless to me😭

[tranquil flax]

goodomorning!!

[lofty shadow]

Hiiii

[edgy latch]

Whats occuring

[lofty saddle]

very true. getting rid of them for one hour ain’t worth it. just stick to getting ads from now on

[tribal dune]

[lofty saddle]

or get c.ai+. no ads

[forest tusk]

people flaming c.ai for like the 382 and idk time in this chat

[tribal dune]

I'm #broke

[edgy latch]

I personally adapted to the ads and barely register when they play, just instant click the popup

[tranquil flax]

nothing new 😔

[deft schooner]

too expensive for nothing ...

[stuck pasture]

Oh why can't popular apps listen to their users by not removing what made it popular and adding things nobody asked for

[lofty saddle]

i #understand

[tribal dune]

Ong...

[lofty saddle]

c.ai+ does have useful features if you get it.. it’s optional to get it haha

not forcing anyone here to buy it

[stuck pasture]

Maybe I should download polypuzz

[tribal dune]

Ive been begging for deletion of characters for a while now, but it's beens YEARRSS

[lofty saddle]

i used to do this too

[lofty saddle]

you do you

[stuck pasture]

I was fine with ads since it was free

[lofty saddle]

which characters?

[forest tusk]

People using ai chat apps are almost like MLP/pokemon fans...

[stuck pasture]

But now I can't deal with it anymore

[lofty saddle]

the fact that there’s ads mid-convo is annoying, i know

[tribal dune]

Like personal ones that I made a few years ago

[deft schooner]

let me put it this way ... discord is the same cost as cai+. cai+ does not give you perks other from removing ads and two other models of bots which are subpar anyway. I used to have cai+ and refuse to pay another cent to cai until they fix stuff

[stuck pasture]

Because of this STUPID age verification

[lofty saddle]

you can’t delete them?

[tribal dune]

No

[edgy latch]

Well sorry pal, its law. You gotta deal with it

[tribal dune]

STUPID LAWS.

[lofty saddle]

oh wait i can’t either

must be a thing to not delete them

[stuck pasture]

I know but I just CAN'TTTTTT

[rough girder]

the air was winter decaying

[edgy latch]

You again...

[rough girder]

wa

[edgy latch]

You and your decaying winter...

[rough girder]

yes

[tribal dune]

I know they have added archiving, but it's not deleting the character 😭

[lofty saddle]

c.ai+ has SO MUCH MORE than just removing ads. i’m not gonna mention any other features here, but.. at the same time, it’s not worth it to get it if you’re not using the app as much

[edgy latch]

Exactly!! Do not get stuff for an app if you do not planning using it long term, its a huge regret i have myself for a few games

[lofty saddle]

i thought it was an option to delete them i have so many private bots sitting in my profile…

[deft schooner]

i think you missed the fact that i said i had it ... but sure, support the devs who dont listen to us. enjoy you medicore chats

[tribal dune]

we all suffer now

[deft schooner]

been using cai since late 2024 so .... im not new

[rough girder]

"why are we still here, just to suffer?"

- Kaz Miller

[gentle snow]

Guys, what’s the deal with the messages? I keep getting default, off topic messages by all the bots. Is it because of the age verification?

[edgy latch]

Yeah but its financial advice overall, its for everybody

[tribal dune]

😔yes bro.

[lofty saddle]

‘who don’t listen to us’ — what even do you wanna change to the app?

age verification won’t go away, ads won’t go away.. what else could you want from them?

[rough girder]

quote was solid that the gear was metal

[lofty saddle]

that’s just one of the chat styles acting like that.

are you verified?

[tribal dune]

Metal gear solid😍

[lofty saddle]

SO TRUE

[dire berry]

I don't think so. You should probably submit a character quality ticket.

[glad tinsel]

is it still not working? it's been hours bro

[visual acorn]

Good morning chat

[edgy latch]

Kookoo, count to 6 7.

[rough girder]

yello

[deft schooner]

im happy to support the devs, if they actually took the time to listen to us and improve. so far, they have yet to do that. im not poor by any means, im just smart enough to put money behind something that is worth supporting.

[lofty saddle]

6777777

[gentle snow]

Many of them also load for a very long time and are labeled as explicit for no reason

[visual acorn]

No

[gentle snow]

Yeah, I’m verified. I’m 19

[lofty saddle]

that’s just the current chat style you have acting this way. switch to another one

[edgy latch]

Thats nice of you to support them, but just know that there are a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes and they cant fix stuff rightaway

[deft schooner]

its been over a year, love. a year. meanwhile they have added things that don't help anything

[edgy latch]

🤷

[gentle snow]

I mostly use either Soft Launch or Roar. When I changed in one chat, it didn’t work. The messages were still filtered

[deft schooner]

but if you want to be be a lemming, be my guest.

[lofty saddle]

every app has a mistake/bug that takes a while to fix. not everything can be fixed with a snap of your fingers

[edgy latch]

Like a lemming from that show? Lemmings and the bear?

[lofty saddle]

have you tried using pipsqueak? it may work

[tribal dune]

Honestly I agree

[lofty saddle]

usually, pipsqueak is acting wild for me & completely ignores the filter

[gentle snow]

I did use Pipsqueak and I changed it to Roar, both didn’t work

[edgy latch]

What??? Isnt that the role for soft launch???

[deft schooner]

again, it has been over a year.

[timber canopy]

..first time?

[edgy latch]

Hii jun

[deft schooner]

remember longnyan ... how amazing that was, and how everyone was happy - that was a good time.

[lofty saddle]

maybe delete the bot’s message and press the send button again to get another response completely

[lofty saddle]

all the time

[glad tinsel]

icl 2023 cai was peak times

[pliant salmon]

does anyone know why I get timed out in chat feed when I try to ask about the bug?

[lofty saddle]

that, too. soft launch isn’t as wild as pipsqueak in my opinion

[hollow hull]

I’m waiting for deepsqueak to be fixed so I can continue my rp

[deft schooner]

it was peak ... sad that the devs won't bring that back

[edgy latch]

Thats crazy 🥹

[lofty saddle]

i’ve seen people talking about it being fixed yesterday on reddit

[edgy latch]

Maybe its rolling out differently? Not the first time

[deft schooner]

deepsqueak has been broken for so long ...

[hollow hull]

Plus announcement says that “the team is looking into it”

[lofty saddle]

yeah i still have the notification

[halcyon cypress]

same lol i'm using a different app in the meantime bc i don't want to ruin my RP w crappy short responses 🥲

[lofty saddle]

could be

[edgy latch]

So real 😭😭😭

[lofty saddle]

it’s taking a while to fix it, then. be patient i suppose

[deft schooner]

know that feeling ... i hate short responses

[hollow hull]

I used to be able to get coherant and long messages until like a week or so ago, the bot became overly descriptive and less chatty, now its short messages and if it tries to generate a long message it cuts most of the time

[glad tinsel]

i'm just finishing them off tbh 😪

[deft schooner]

last week was so hit and miss.

[lofty saddle]

is that why i got short responses the first time i tried it?

[hollow hull]

Yea, i’ve been playing age of calamity, beaten that, now doing a playthrough of Fable 2 and doing some writing since Cai is in get-fixed mode

[halcyon cypress]

i wrote like 250+ words earlier and it gave me this. like am i a joke to you???

[deft schooner]

that really annoys me

[edgy latch]

Gang wtf is this 😭😭😭

[timber canopy]

Hm....

[lofty saddle]

what a way to wait for it to be fixed

[timber canopy]

Worst part is that all the bot actually said was Hey

[edgy latch]

YEAH FR

[halcyon cypress]

testing my patience

[lofty saddle]

HAPPENS TO ME ALL THE TIME TOO 😭 i mostly just press the send button and hope that the bot continues the message that fits the scenario

[edgy latch]

Is it possible to start a new chat, but as in duplicating it wnd see if it works out?? I have no idea 😭

[frank crater]

Verified with my face like 500 times and persona still wont verify me xdd the lighting in my room is great too

[hollow hull]

It’s not often I’ve had to swipe 20 times to get a good quality long message, until the last week

[halcyon cypress]

it feels like talking to a guy who isn't interested in you and keeps sending you one word responses

[lofty saddle]

“start a new chat from here” could be an option

[dim tapir]

HEYYOOO

Jun I got a new credit card today mind if I share?

[hazy ingot]

Can someone answer this? I verification my age using my mom's id but it say it can't

[deft schooner]

and then they start flirting with you, sexualising and saying how pale you are

[edgy latch]

Did she say you can use it?

[dim tapir]

Because it doesn't pair with your face and that's literal age fraud

[timber canopy]

Sure sure. Send me the pin too.

[lofty saddle]

don’t use your damn mom’s id to verify your age 😭

still, the verification is bugged. it shouldn’t say that. wait for it to be fixed properly before trying again

[hazy ingot]

Bro, my mom's id face literally same as my face

[edgy latch]

Holy genetics?

[rough girder]

dummies vs noobs

[dim tapir]

It shouldn't? It absolutely should. The face and the ID don't pair

[lofty saddle]

just use your face bro

[timber canopy]

Bruh...don't commit ID fraud without telling ur mom at least. I hope you told her. Cuz u need her face too.

[hazy ingot]

People even say I'm a copy of my mom

[deft schooner]

you arent your mum though - go to a bank and do that, you'll get arrested

[dim tapir]

Yeah but you can't tell me people might confuse you to be twins

[halcyon cypress]

it's triggering me bc its too close to how men irl talk to me, they need to fix it quickly

[wintry spear]

**wave, wave, wave.

[lofty saddle]

it SHOULD say something that it doesnt match. you have a point

[dim tapir]

Saying they don't match will give the kiddos ideas

[hazy ingot]

Once i come to my aunt's house wearing my mom's dress and she almost thought i was her

[glad tinsel]

is it just me or whenever i tried to talk to a bot about ANYTHING they try to initiate smth in like 2024

[lofty saddle]

[frank crater]

How do i fix this Ive verified and refreshed the website multiple times but the website still says it cant verify due to issues xd

[lofty saddle]

don’t give them ideas

shhhh

[ancient storm]

[deft schooner]

in all honesty, I get that 100% (im female too) - and im sorry that you have to experience that. no one should

[edgy latch]

Cool, but its still much better to use your own ID (if you got one)

[wintry spear]

You’ll have to wait until Persona resolves the issue.

[dim tapir]

Feeling bored I'll send the Qi card too

[deft schooner]

yeah all the time

[lofty saddle]

‘can’t verify due to issues’ — the verification itself HAS an issue. it’s bugged; wait for it to be fixed before trying again

[hazy ingot]

Btw is it true that the reading mode will be removed after 14 days?

[edgy latch]

False

[lofty saddle]

No

[hollow hull]

I keep having to remind the bot my oc has black fur, but the bot keeps trying to go for pale fur

[wintry spear]

No.

[lofty saddle]

it’s only removed if you verify to be 18+

[frank crater]

Crap i tried this yesterday multiple times how long do u have to wait for it to fix itself

[wintry spear]

Hello, Monarch.

[dim tapir]

They definitely got one but are under 18

[hollow hull]

G’day/G’night!

[wintry spear]

No one knows how long it will take until they fix the verification.

[lofty saddle]

uuuhh… depends. could be days, weeks, even months. we’re not sure. all there is to know is to be patient

[edgy latch]

LMAOO

[frank crater]

Alr ill wait until c.ai fixes it

[dim tapir]

Oh God how much do I hate when the model sticks with a specific piece of info

[lofty saddle]

they’ll announce it. i’m sure

[wintry spear]

I hate when the bots automatically assume that someone’s persona is short.

[rough girder]

imma dummies vs noobs till they fix it

[deft schooner]

you watch, they'll put the age verification issues on the back burner, while adding on "exciting new features" in hopes to distract us from the real issues

[edgy latch]

Had a bot that kept talking ab my ocs piercings. NO MATTER THE SENTENCE, NO MATTER THE CONTEXT, THOSE PIERCINGS WOULD BE MENTIONED. I DIDNT EVEN PIN IT

[dim tapir]

What is a short persona

[wintry spear]

Sorry, I meant in height.

Persona is another word for ‘Original Character.’

[lofty saddle]

right, and then they forget the whole scenario and make its own scenario

[timber canopy]

Sure

[lofty saddle]

LMAO

could happen

[deft schooner]

a persona of mine is POC ... the bot kept ignoring that part, and call her pale

[lofty saddle]

wait what’s poc

[hollow hull]

At least so far the bots are remembering the furry oc is 10 feet tall.

[dim tapir]

A thing that sometimes works is pretending you know the character is fake and a model is hiding behind it and telling it to stop a certain action

[deft schooner]

person of colour

[glad tinsel]

person of colour

[tulip sky]

person of color
Just not white skin bascially

[lofty saddle]

thank you for answering

[wintry spear]

Hey, at least they can remember one psychical attribution.

[edgy latch]

Thanks, i'll be trying that 🥹

[dim tapir]

At the same time if you tell it a certain height it'll milk the fuck out of it

[wintry spear]

As the story progressed, a bot managed to mistake my male oc as female?

[lofty saddle]

“hey, i’m 6’0!”
“i’m 6’4, i’m taller than you short stuff ”

[wintry spear]

Honestly, I don’t think the bots pay attention to the persona one uses.

[versed thicket]

towers over you

[fallen herald]

i accidentally uploaded the wrong face for the age veri and now it's not letting me restart

[lofty saddle]

that sometimes happens to me too. i have to edit the message and change the pronouns from ‘she’ to ‘he’

[edgy latch]

Happens to me all the time. Even when its said IN MY PERSONA THAT ITS A MAN. WHEN IN THIRD PERSON I USE HE/HIM 😭😭

[lofty saddle]

HAHA RIGHT

[versed thicket]

DON'T CHEAT IT. IT WOULD NEVER WORK

[odd summit]

one of my personas sister is 6’0 and the bot keeps towering over her STOP IT!!!!

[versed thicket]

"Accidentally"

[fallen herald]

??

[lofty saddle]

towers over you you’re so short..

[odd summit]

THE BOT IS SHORTER THAN HER!!!!!!

[wintry spear]

How can you upload a wrong face? Aren’t you using your face?

[hollow hull]

Is this another to the counter of identity fraud?

[lofty saddle]

what do you mean accidentally 😭😭

[edgy latch]

Perhaps

[lofty saddle]

that was definitely on purpose

[wintry spear]

Add it to the counter, Monarch!

[odd summit]

you’re so short hahahaha😂

[fallen herald]

i share a c.ai account

[dim tapir]

I once told Megumin I was 177cm tall and she said "That is tiny!"

[agile saffron]

this! I noticed it happened more often if I were roleplaying as someone more shy and reserved… i wonder why!

[wintry spear]

with?

[fallen herald]

nvm its alr

[lofty saddle]

..people share c.ai accounts?

[tulip sky]

We got all kinds of variants of "I'm 20 but don't have an ID" criers now lmao

[wintry spear]

weep.

[lofty saddle]

megumin is 210 cm, don’t underestimate her

[fallen herald]

at least i do ig

[edgy latch]

Reminds me how people share tiktok accs

[versed thicket]

I saw on our subreddit "I'm 23, but the system thinks I am below 18"

[lofty saddle]

i remember people having school fanpage accounts where they shared their account with multiple people

[versed thicket]

itS nOt wOrKinGF

[dim tapir]

That makes her infinitely unattractive

[fallen herald]

okayyyy nvm

[lofty saddle]

LMAO

true

[tulip sky]

If using the face only then yeah but if you can't use anything else to verify you're 18+ then cmon now 😭

[halcyon cypress]

STOP TALKING FOR ME YOU STUPID RAT

[lofty saddle]

i’ve seen two people say that they don’t have an id

[versed thicket]

who we foolin

[jovial rose]

Yo, can you check your dms real quick, i got an issue i want to discuss

[versed thicket]

"I don't want to give my face to the internet!"

Tries a new chatgpt prompt for an awesome futuristic headshot photo

Yeah this is awesome!

[versed thicket]

The channel name is cai-discussion, we can discuss it here.

[lofty saddle]

committing identity fraud over nothing istg

[slate coyote]

Is anyone else having issues with super short cut off replies? I've tried two diff bots on both PS and Roar and it's all the time

[edgy latch]

We are devolving 🥹

[wintry spear]

A few people have reported facing that issue.

[versed thicket]

MIND = BLOWN

[lofty saddle]

switch to another chat style other than those

[lofty saddle]

[tawny kettle]

me too lance we’re in this together

[slate coyote]

I'll try soft launch I guess

[lofty saddle]

good luck with that

[odd summit]

I like soft launch

[versed thicket]

it used to be the user's favorite model

[crystal marsh]

Gng am i the only one in permanent reading mode💔

[wintry spear]

No.

Reading mode lasts until you verify as 18+.

[pliant salmon]

It’s been like this since yesterday but I think they’re fixing it

[edgy latch]

No, i am too

[tawny kettle]

yes

[slate coyote]

oki got it

[crystal marsh]

Oh my GAWDDDD bro i was roleplaying for my oc and then when i come back into the acc i was in permanent reading mode, no timer. Just telling me to verify my age

[eternal flower]

According to Google, CAI personnel don't start working until 9 am so we're gonna have to wait a while [its 3 am in cali] for them to fix the issues...[if google's correct]

[wintry spear]

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.

[crystal marsh]

I tried confirming it, but it wouldnt accept it

[eternal flower]

Do they work on fridays? 😭

[edgy latch]

Yup, either verify or quit. The choice is all yours

[halcyon cypress]

i got addicted to the length of deep rat responses i fear (when it's actually working)

[lofty saddle]

mmmm… to love having the filter gone…

[hollow hull]

Its 8pm where I live, they should be working on it for the last 11 hours (joking)

[odd summit]

I’ve seen the feedback forums saying that bots are low quality nowadays so good thing im on reading mode so I don’t have to experience that

[edgy latch]

Its currently bugged so you have to wait

[wintry spear]

Persona is bugging out for a few people.

I recommend waiting until they resolve the issue.

[crystal marsh]

Omds

[jovial rose]

I tried to, but many users seemingly downplay the issues I am reaching out about, nor I'm looking for discussions with a random joe.

[tulip sky]

Jfc 😭

[hollow hull]

Same here, the last week has been the only time its been broken for me

[eternal flower]

Lmfaooo right I feel the same way 😭 atleast have a few night-workers for an 24/7 app

[crystal marsh]

Aighty, thank you for telling

[wintry spear]

No worries.

[edgy latch]

Anybody enjoying a simple breakfast with croissant and coffee

[eternal flower]

MY FAVORITE.

[lofty saddle]

i haven’t even had breakfast yet

i’m going to church

[halcyon cypress]

does a cigarette count

[crystal marsh]

I quit bcs I'm too impatient

[edgy latch]

🥹

[hollow hull]

I may go make a late night snack now… mm, cheesy beef noodles

[versed thicket]

UNfortuantely, we don't deal stuff over DMs. Don't mind others, they're not the one experiencing the issu anyway.

[agile saffron]

i had shepherd’s pie

[modern totem]

why are the ads for charms unavailable 🙁🙁 give me my charms pls..

[edgy latch]

Whats shepherds pie like? I never tried it

[tulip sky]

I wish
I have to sit through the horrors of my period and stay on campus for another 3 hours until I can finish up my extra's then,,

[wintry spear]

yum.

[crystal marsh]

Sometimes

[wintry spear]

It is just mash potatoes and meat.. in a pie.

[edgy latch]

I cant imagine the pain, i feel bad for you 😭

[tulip sky]

I usually don't have much pain on my periods but good fucking lord i am in HELL right now

[edgy latch]

O. Never knew what its like in terms of condiments, but it sounds like another dish here named musaca! Its exactly mash potatos and meat with a simple layer of eggs

[halcyon cypress]

if you like mashed potatoes and ground beef and peas and carrots there's no reason to not like it. very simple kind of dish but its good enough

[agile saffron]

i think everyone makes it a little differently but the way i like it is ground beef + corn + cut carrots mix and then mashed potato on top of all that in a tray and then shredded cheese and then you bake it

[jovial rose]

Is there a ticket system in the server?

[abstract thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/eat-joker-bored-late-youre-late-gif-13352347

[wintry spear]

Interesting.

[edgy latch]

Yuh! Think of it like lasagna but without tomatos

[halcyon cypress]

oh yeah i usually just do peas and carrots but corn is good too

[edgy latch]

Works amazing with sour cream

[agile saffron]

cooly and yea i love corn i think its underrated

it goes so well with so many things

[edgy latch]

I hate corn, i think its overrated /j

[orchid spoke]

I will only take corn on the cob
idk why I dislike it without (I grew up like that)

-# Wait... we are talking about corn right?

[wintry spear]

(We were talking about food, I think.)

[edgy latch]

Yeah me too tbf, only with butter and lotsa salt

[agile saffron]

woa thats the only version of corn i hate

[orchid spoke]

-# Ok good

[halcyon cypress]

musaca is very similar! i think its basically mostly just the spices and herbs used that are different

[lofty saddle]

how can you HATE corn?

[orchid spoke]

I can see the appeal

[edgy latch]

TOO SWEET FOR MY LIKING ITS HORRENDOUS

[wintry spear]

WHAT? ..that is okay, I respect your opinion.

[wintry parcel]

WHAT???

[edgy latch]

I feel ill just by the smell alone

[lofty saddle]

i eat them with salt. mmmm 🤤

[halcyon cypress]

corn is alright but i dont eat it that much bc its like a waste of food, it just passes right through you

[lofty saddle]

i eat everything with salt actually

[brittle quest]

So you're the type to hate caramel popcorn then

[edgy latch]

Who doesnt?

[halcyon cypress]

no real nutritional value

[edgy latch]

Depends? Never had it, prob wont cuz i prefer salty popcorn

[lofty saddle]

maybe someone might disagree with me here

[brittle quest]

Outrageous /j

[edgy latch]

Ehehehe

[agile saffron]

you’re not wrong, thats how i feel with corn on the cob. i put a lot of butter on it but it just tasted oily and sweet now

[halcyon cypress]

popcorn w a lot of butter is the best

[wintry spear]

Cinema popcorn.

[orchid spoke]

I will always take some corn on the cob as an extra food

though it can be a bit annoying to eat sometimes...

[lofty saddle]

what do you think about cheesy popcorn?

[wintry parcel]

just eat it normal, corn ain't that sweet

[edgy latch]

Mfmfmfmfnkqhaod love

[halcyon cypress]

i hate when popcorn kernels get stuck in my teeth tho omg the worst ever

[lofty saddle]

YOURE SO ME

[agile saffron]

i feel like it is tho thats why i dont like ir💔

[edgy latch]

Same, but i enjoy munching on the kernels, they are not that hard to bite into

[brittle quest]

IT'S SO PAINFUL

[lofty saddle]

real

[halcyon cypress]

once i had a little piece slide like under my gum somehow and it was so annoying and stuck there for days wtf

[brittle quest]

I relate so much

[wintry spear]

I love how random c.ai-discussion can be at times.

[halcyon cypress]

i was traumatized i didn't eat popcorn again so long after that

[brittle quest]

That is the reason I stopped eating popcorn for real

[lofty saddle]

better than dealing with the “what’s up with the age verification?” question

[agile saffron]

one time me and my friends put way too much of that extra butter liquid thing in our popcorn and then kept the cardboard buckets on our lap and after the movie it looked like we’d pissed ourselves

[wintry parcel]

it's discussion, what did u expect?

[wintry spear]

A friend of mine accidentally chipped his tooth by biting onto an unpopped popcorn kernel.

[edgy latch]

Absolutely, its tiring having to explain the same stuff over and over again, plus get rid of misinformation

[lofty saddle]

[wintry spear]

affirmative.

[wintry parcel]

just quit the app ngl

[agile saffron]

what! how did he chip his tooth, i bite into them all the time

[wintry spear]

And they still somehow want to argue that their misinformation is correct.

[halcyon cypress]

i say this to people and get called rude and they say i don't understand addiction lol

[edgy latch]

Exactly brah 🥹

[wintry parcel]

Just back to things before 2023

[wintry spear]

Sometimes popcorn kernels can be hard.

[lofty saddle]

it’s so tiring to hear people say that 😭

[edgy latch]

Then they really shouldnt come here to complain, ESPECIALLY IF THEY SAY THEY DONT WANNA AGE VERIF (like get out)

[agile saffron]

oh interesting

[lofty saddle]

no correlation 😭 HAHA

[wintry spear]

I asked someone for a source, and then they said youtube..

I asked them for the channel’s name, they said that they had ‘forgot’.

[versed thicket]

None. If it's about age verification, you can send it using the form in this article:
https://support.character.ai/hc/en-us/articles/43665577363739-How-do-I-verify-my-age-Best-Practices-and-FAQ

Read the best practices as well.

[lofty saddle]

i’m crying

[edgy latch]

The burden of proof falls on the accuser. Whats so hard for those dumdums to understand

[shut sage]

I hate cai rn I can’t even chat…

[wintry spear]

are you trying to rage bait me?

[shut sage]

They removed the main feature btw

[lofty saddle]

youtube CAN be a source of information, but it depends on the information itself. still, doing a little research is better than relying on what the person said in the video

[tidal carbon]

Any news about the issues from the app about the bots?

[edgy latch]

This ^^

[wintry spear]

Yes.

[wintry parcel]

don't even bother, that sh ain't work

[halcyon cypress]

lmao i guess they mean "its not that easy to just quit" but like if you're on read mode and refuse to verify that's your only option, complaining on here isn't going to change anything

[edgy latch]

It does for some, its just bugged atm

[lofty saddle]

[golden nexus]

Aint that right

[shut sage]

Imagine downloading and not being able to play without proving your 18+

[edgy latch]

Exactly man

[versed thicket]

"Ain't work" if you try to cheat it.

[halcyon cypress]

you either verify or quit using the app, pretty simple. crying won't do a thing.

[wintry spear]

..it is because of multiple lawsuits and a new law.

[heavy terrace]

"Lets give them one rating so they change the system for us! heh "

[shut sage]

Oh…

[lofty saddle]

people hope that there’s a way to bypass the verification

[versed thicket]

issues from the app about the bots?

Not sure what you're referring to, sorry.

[lofty saddle]

THIS IS WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT

[edgy latch]

I feel like downing some cold water on those people just so they wake up and finally understand

[tidal carbon]

The half written messages, preset 3 line messages, this sort of stuff

[halcyon cypress]

discord postponing age verification bc of the outrage made people delusional and think every company will bend to their whims if they're loud and obnoxious enough

[heavy terrace]

Dont bother.. Most of the kids dont understand shit

[wintry parcel]

nah, it keep said ain't working, so i just quit

[shut sage]

omg why can’t they just pick bots that are kid friendly and bring back the filter…

[edgy latch]

Fork found in kitchen 🥹🥹

[tidal carbon]

Repeating the same sentence more than once and then stopping mid dialogue, and so on
It's been like this since yesterday

[versed thicket]

ok bro

[tame isle]

It’s by change or making new accounts. Like hell. 2 weeks or sum for free. But nooo. U have to age verify urself. Imma dookie all over this company

[pliant salmon]

because bots are unpredictable and could say something inappropriate

[shut sage]

Bring back the filter-

[lofty saddle]

that’s… the law… you don’t need to commit identity fraud for an app…

[versed thicket]

What model is it? Send a ticket about it.

[wintry spear]

You’re not the only one experiencing the same troubles.

[shut sage]

Same…

[wintry spear]

There is already a filter on c.ai, silly goblin.

[tidal carbon]

I never said i was, i just asked if there had any news about the issue .-.

[wintry spear]

No one knows when the issue is going to be resolved.

[tame isle]

It ain’t no identify fraud big dawg. Js a new account no lying in it

[shut sage]

No like you don’t need age verification just the filter omg…

[halcyon cypress]

bc it doesn't work that way, even "kid friendly" bots can get spicy and say inappropriate things. and literally nobody wants a super strict filter, horrible idea. it destroys RP creativity when its overly strict

[nimble scarab]

hi

[wintry spear]

The filter wasn’t good enough, which contributed towards this update being made.

[shut sage]

Oh…

[wintry spear]

Hello, The_Shadow.

[wintry parcel]

even facebook, x and even insta not even bother about the uses's age

[shut sage]

Well it’s still unplayable

[versed thicket]

No, I gave him the best practices that he can follow, including the link to the support, but he kept saying 'ain't working' so there's literally nothing I can offer to help someone who doesn't want to be helped. yap

[pliant salmon]

we already have a filter, it just stops very descriptive things from happening. it’s still inappropriate for kids

[odd fable]

why is cai so slow guys wtf and it doesn’t even have long messages💔

[nimble scarab]

i dont have filters

[edgy latch]

I had seen a lotta stuff from before soft launch was a thing... It was crazy and especially unwarranted during said rp. Then the filter became stricter and i couldnt hug said bot without getting immediately filtered

[halcyon cypress]

like be real nobody wants to go back to beta filter where the filter was so strict it would block you for holding hands

[tidal carbon]

Another one bites the dust

[tame isle]

Yk? Imma go find me some actual life. I ain’t using this app no more

[heavy terrace]

Peepaw, I know I just gave Ershin's fav gif, thats all. Dont be mad at me

[odd fable]

omg what happened

[wintry spear]

Congratulations.

[shut sage]

I think they should have considered it though..

[versed thicket]

I'm joking.

[wintry parcel]

congrate mate

[edgy latch]

Humans discover that they arent held at gunpoint to quit the app

[tidal carbon]

The app is slow for some reason, i tried asking Lucifer but he talked about tickets

[shut sage]

I already quit

[wintry spear]

applause.

[odd fable]

what tickets

[wintry parcel]

same here

[tame isle]

See yall ✌️😔

[edgy latch]

Mind? blown
Flabbers? Gasted

[tidal carbon]

Good question

[pliant salmon]

they won’t, it’s a law in California and they can’t change the app without it getting removed. It’s not kid friendly at all

[versed thicket]

That's how we report issues.

[shut sage]

I did they have to do it globally tho

[odd fable]

okie if you find out something about it ,can someone tag me about the reason 💔🙏🏻

[shut sage]

Remove the I I’m silly

[edgy latch]

Yes? C.ai is based in cali so THE WHOLE APP ABIDES BY THE CALI LAW

[halcyon cypress]

like there's literally a whole feedback thread on here of teens complaining the bots are abusive and toxic and force them into inappropriate situations against their will saying that its traumatizing them etc.

[shut sage]

Oh…

[tidal carbon]

Welp i just thought that after almost 19 hours since the beginning of the problem with countless tickets someone would already have a explanation of sorts

[pliant salmon]

yeah because c.ai is in California so they have to abide by their own laws

[edgy latch]

Are you just discovering how laws work 🥹

[royal egret]

i highkey had a life even during the app

[pliant salmon]

exactly

[agile saffron]

it should help to not have to deal with even more lawsuits

[shut sage]

I don’t research apps Srry

[wintry spear]

Do your research before arguing about things.

[shut sage]

K…

[wintry parcel]

fr

[edgy latch]

Completely understandable dw, but just understand that c.ai is based in cali so it will abide by any new laws cali made

[wintry parcel]

fr? I thought it was based on the country?

[shut sage]

I already have a life based on the two debate or art

[halcyon cypress]

imagine how calm this server would be if people actually did this

[edgy latch]

USA has states... Each state has diff kinds of laws and stuff buddy

[shut sage]

That’s my entire personality now 😭

[wintry spear]

I wouldn’t need to be here if people did that. I would’ve probably never stayed for this long here.

[edgy latch]

Me neither tbf

[tidal carbon]

Elite ball knowledge

[shut sage]

I think we should just abandon cai…

[lofty saddle]

could’ve just asked google about it. there’s plenty of articles to read and learn what’s going on

[edgy latch]

You gotta be trolling now 😭

[wintry spear]

we?

[royal egret]

I gave up on it long ago

[shut sage]

Get a life dawgs…

[lofty saddle]

do NOT include ME in ‘we’

[halcyon cypress]

they basically have a choice to cater to either minors or adults and minors don't have money, don't pay for subs and they come with the risk of parents suing your company and regulators fining you for not doing enough to protect them. adults have money, are more likely to pay and there's no legal risk. from a pure business pov it's a no brainer tbh.

[shut sage]

I mean those who want too

[royal egret]

I do have a life tho..

[timber canopy]

We'd actually be chill. And we would not need this channel.

[shut sage]

I mean if u wanted too

[wintry spear]

Welcome back, Jun.

[jovial rose]

I do not trust Persona with my biometric data, as they are not just doing biometric data verification, in their own TOS Agreement, they detail that Persona conducts various checks such as, but not limited to the following:

OS Version
Phone Number
IP Adress, with inherited Geo Location
"HESITATION DETECTION"
And "Copy-Paste" Metric.

These datas are being distributed to services such as Google, Amazon, OpenAI, etc, and some data as even stored in plain text before it was patched, and apparently the US Government can also access that Data. There I ask the question: Which of these is needed for an AI CHATBOT WHERE I DON'T INTERACT WITH PEOPLE? And this is not Rule 9 as you can read it yourself...

[timber canopy]

Yep yep

[wintry parcel]

mb twin. I'm not from the US

[shut sage]

Same

[edgy latch]

Me neither, i completely understand not knowing

[timber canopy]

Ok....but...you also own a phone? and when you accept those cookies? also taking data...

[lofty saddle]

you’re so smart for a romanian

[edgy latch]

Was gonna get offended if said by someone else, but thanks zesty lemon 🥹

[jovial rose]

I don't accept those cookies cuz I can just not accept the cookies yknow 🇪🇺

[timber canopy]

Yeah but you use google and use your devices, no? Those take data too.

[lofty saddle]

zesty lemon 😭😭 that made me giggle

[halcyon cypress]

lmaoo you think every app and website asks permission for data

[timber canopy]

Your new nickname, is zesty.

[shut sage]

I feel like all the games I play except for infinity Nicki gets deleted or shadow banned or I just can’t ever use it

[agile saffron]

yum i love me some cookies

[edgy latch]

ROBLOX asks for cookies

[heavy terrace]

I'm eating one right now

[edgy latch]

Me too

[wintry spear]

What flavour?

[jovial rose]

I mean: They literally do. They are obligated to, sorry if your gov lets you down about this, but yknow, begger cant be choosers

[halcyon cypress]

you're using discord rn my brother one of the biggest data miners in the industry

[timber canopy]

I am CRAVING a cookie.

[shut sage]

Oreo flavored

[lethal crow]

Hellooooo

[edgy latch]

Get some!!

[wintry spear]

Hello, BEHH.

[heavy terrace]

Butter and chocolate chips

[agile saffron]

me too

[shut sage]

Good for you

[wintry spear]

Yum.. enjoy your cookie, Avyl.

[wintry parcel]

life is so stress
Any idea on how to make it better?

[halcyon cypress]

discord literally collects extensive telemetry data meaning they look at and track all the activity on your phone including the other apps you use etc.

[jovial rose]

Uh-huh, yknow that still does not answer the question, this is just hushing the issue under the rug.

[lethal crow]

HAII

[wintry spear]

Attempt to look at the positives.

[lofty saddle]

[shut sage]

why did cai get a therapy bot to just say ‘sorry’

[agile saffron]

yea but isnt it kinda beautiful sometimes like the sky for example

[fallow prawn]

this age verification update made me quit from character ai

[halcyon cypress]

so you're ok with discord tracking and collecting all your data but not persona having it for a few days and then deleting it?

[edgy latch]

Awesome, enjoy your new life

[halcyon cypress]

makes sense

[wintry parcel]

it's 40 degree in here

[timber canopy]

Sigh...I've already hit my daily sugar allowance with Dr Pepper...

[fallow prawn]

nah, it's will be way worse for me

[lofty saddle]

bots can’t act like professional therapists

[edgy latch]

Then please dont come here to complain and get help

[royal egret]

same

[edgy latch]

You have a daily sugar allowance?? How come if i can ask

[timber canopy]

Uh...wait. Please clock this: Your statments and your usage of discord and the internet do not match or add up.

[lethal crow]

Can ya’ll help with something real quickkk?

[shut sage]

I mean the one that says ‘are you ready to chat’

[timber canopy]

Oh it's self-imposed. I want to lose weight and stuff.

[tulip sky]

whats up?

[agile saffron]

of celsius or the other one?

[timber canopy]

[edgy latch]

Ohhh completely understandable 😭😭 best of luck on your weight loss journey!!

[lofty saddle]

..my point is the same

[tiny magnet]

There is a really good book on amazon, to help utter weight I think it's a planner or a tracker. I'm not sure I think it's by clever fox or something like that.

[jovial rose]

"Few days" you know that they can just store it up to 3 years. Does CharacterAI have any sufficient proof of that their vendor, Persona, actually deletes said Data within a week?

[fallow prawn]

no i won't getting help

[lofty saddle]

they’re trying to convince themselves that what they say is true

[agile saffron]

but you can look at nature and all of its wonders

[halcyon cypress]

yall are just not honest, this persona privacy BS is a complete farce. you don't care about privacy, you wouldn't be online at all if you were. you are addicted to the app and want to use it freely again and think if you complain about privacy issues that sounds better than crying about not being able to talk to your favourite bots anymore. you're not fooling me.

[tulip sky]

Lets flip it over. Do you have proof Persona keeps it for 3 years?

[timber canopy]

Thanks lol. Genuinely just want more confidence in myself. I'm very short so more muscle would help for me lmao.

[wintry parcel]

Celsius, almost got a heat stroke

[edgy latch]

Are you just ragebaiting pal?? 🥹

[wintry spear]

Persona is an identity verification service that collects personal data such as IDs, selfies (biometrics), contact details, and technical data like IP address or device info to confirm users and prevent fraud or meet legal requirements; it may also use third-party providers for processing, but states it does not sell data and uses it only for verification purposes.

Claims about things like “hesitation detection,” mass data sharing to companies like OpenAI, or unrestricted government access are mostly unverified or exaggerated, often coming from user speculation rather than official documentation .

[lethal crow]

So like, I think I may have lost my old c.ai account? I was wondering how to get it back.

[agile saffron]

WHAT

[fallow prawn]

i don't need it, i tried that since 2022 and already gave up in 2024

[lofty saddle]

age verification won’t go away. verify to be 18+ to get rid of reading mode

[tulip sky]

How so? Why do you believe you lost it?

[shut sage]

Didn’t they say (don’t develop relationship with the bot) I don’t remember

[timber canopy]

Ohhh I'll check it out. (I don't even have an amazon acc what am I even on)

[tiny magnet]

I'm not sure if my app is going crazy. But I don't have any voice or go ahead.Limit limits

[agile saffron]

its like 4 degrees for me rn

[wintry parcel]

yah, and I also live in city = extra heat

[tiny magnet]

If you wanna d m me, I can send you a few links

[lofty saddle]

don’t know what you’re talking about

[halcyon cypress]

complain about "privacy" all you want, the age verification is not going away. move on with your life.

[fallow prawn]

age verification in character ai?
start talking with chatgpt!

[wintry spear]

They only store it if you are a wanted criminal.

[shut sage]

The thing on them bottom when you start a chat

[versed thicket]

1. You can't skip age verification because you don't trust persona. Age assurance is run on all accounts.
2. This is misinformation if you don't have sources to back it up.

[edgy latch]

Thats way worse?

[tiny magnet]

That's also getting expensive. You run out of high responses. I had to upgrade, because that

[fallow prawn]

i won't give my personal information

[tulip sky]

Paranoia does not excuse blatant spreading of misinformation lil guy WHAT does this have to do with anything

[royal egret]

HAHAHA

[agile saffron]

for up to three years, yes! depending on the behalf of the customer. they (claim) to delete it as soon as possible 🤷‍♀️

[lethal crow]

Cuz I was trying to connect one of my accounts to my other device, and clicked on log out, and when I tried logging in again I couldn’t.

[lofty saddle]

it just says that everything characters say is fictional or whatever

[halcyon cypress]

again, yet you are on discord which is one of the biggest data miners out there??

[tiny holly]

chat gpt is crazy

[fallow prawn]

just for talking with bots

[edgy latch]

Okay? Thats completely your choice. It would be better if you wouldnt come here complaining ab it 🥹

[halcyon cypress]

if you were that paranoid you would NOT be using discord

[versed thicket]

Also, I believe ALL applications gathere these data.

[hollow hull]

I hope discord enjoys my autistic ramblings I’ve had

[fallow prawn]

dude I'm complaining since 2022, any questions?

[timber canopy]

sure sure.

[lofty saddle]

persona is safe… please do your research

[agile saffron]

maybe you can try doing your favorite stuff and look at the beauty in that!

[edgy latch]

No cuz idek you and nor did i know you were here since 2022.

[tiny magnet]

I also tried to lose weight. Don't try to starve yourself to lose weight. I learned that from the hard way

[halcyon cypress]

most apps only track what you do on their app, discord literally tracks what you do on your phone and on other apps as well lol

[fallow prawn]

dude even if i did that shitty verification, my chat's with bots is still unavailable

[shut sage]

It says basically that don’t develop a relationship with the bot and said don’t take real life advice from the bot though…are they now trying to make a bot give us advice?…

[tiny holly]

i mean how does it know that the verification is fake or not

[tulip sky]

Oh yeah the logins are fucky wucky right now, the systems are being fixed actively. I'd recommend trying to have it send an email so you can maybe change your password and login from there, if that doesn't work just wait it out for a couple hours up to a day

[wintry spear]

Are you verifying as 18+?

[tiny magnet]

Oh, well, they can get into my acting account All day

[fallow prawn]

Persona is not safe anyway
