I’ve caught up on everything. Now I’m gonna attempt to chat with Eric on #CharacterAI. That is, if I don’t get an irritating non-skippable ad again.
#characterai
You know what pains me the most about all that AI stuff?
Like yeah, RAM being expensive sucks. I wish I could upgrade my gpu, but its way to expensive right now. Using freshwater to cool AI slop servers is objectively horrible and we should do something about that, but what pains me about AI is the waste of human intellect.
How many good thoughts and poetic writings were wasted in conversations with #characterai or chatgpt and the like? Back in the day, people would have written a fan-fiction on ao3, or had meaningful conversations in some online forum. Now they just waste their intellect talking to an #ai Which will never be moved by your thoughts. Even if it'll remember, it will never act based on what you tell it.
I keep noticing that Character.AI describes men in the same way every time: always “tall”, “strong”, “muscular”, and bigger than women — even when the prompt doesn’t ask for it.
It creates a very unrealistic picture, because real men don’t all look like that.
Has anyone else seen this pattern?

수백만 명이 사용하는 ‘AI 여자친구’ 앱 SillyTavern을 소개하는 글입니다. LLM(대형언어모델)용 프론트엔드 애플리케이션으로 취미 중심의 큰 커뮤니티를 형성하며 인기를 모으고 있고, 사용자들이 캐릭터 AI를 보다 자유롭게 다루도록 지원하는 점이 특징입니다.
"When Character AI launched three years ago, it was rated as safe for kids 12 and up. The free website and app were billed as an immersive, creative outlet where users could mingle with AI characters based on historical figures, cartoons and celebrities.
The more than 20 million monthly users on the platform can text or talk with AI-powered characters in real time.
The AI chatbot platform was founded by Noam Shazeer and Daniel De Freitas, two former Google engineers who left the company in 2021 after executives deemed their chatbot prototype not yet safe for public release.
"It's ready for an explosion right now," Shazeer said in a 2023 interview. "Not in five years when we solve all the problems, but like now."
A former Google employee, familiar with Google's Responsible AI team, which guides AI ethics and safety, told 60 Minutes that Shazeer and De Freitas were aware that their initial chatbot technology was potentially dangerous.
Last year, in an unusual move, Google struck a $2.7 billion deal to license Character AI's technology and bring Shazeer, De Freitas and their team back to Google to work on AI projects. Google didn't buy the company, but it has the right to use its technology.
Juliana's parents are now one of at least six families suing Character AI, its co-founders — Shazeer and De Frietas — and Google. In a statement, Google emphasized that, "Character AI is a separate company that designed and managed its own models. Google is focused on our own platforms, where we insist on intensive safety testing and processes.""

Character.ai just launched "Stories" for teens—a *guided* narrative experience. Conveniently, this dropped the same day they banned teens from their open-ended chatbots. Is this genuine innovation for youth safety, or just a very well-timed pivot under scrutiny? Thoughts on AI-driven narrative control?

The feature comes as an alternative to the company’s chatbots, which are no longer accessible to users under 18 as of this week.”

TechCrunch: Character.AI is ending its chatbot experience for kids. “Character.AI will phase out teen chatbot access by November 25, starting with a two-hour daily limit that shrinks progressively until it hits zero. To ensure this ban remains with under 18 users, the platform will deploy an in-house age verification tool that analyzes user behavior, as well as third-party tools like Persona.”
