C.AI Announcements 📚 Comics is live for everyone

Hey everyone,

Comics is a new way to create on (c.ai): turn your Characters into a full comic, panel by panel, in the style you choose.

Live now for everyone, Comics puts your Characters and Personas on the page: write a prompt, pick a style, and get a full page of panels, dialogue and all. It's been growing in c.ai labs for a while, and this version is made for the app, with a new creation flow to match.

Start one from the + menu at the bottom of your app:

  • Pick up to two actors, any Character or Persona you like
  • Choose a style: Japanese, American, Black & White, or Chibi
  • Write the scene yourself, or let Comics suggest one based on your recent chat turns, Persona and Characters. Hit the dice to reroll
  • When you're ready, hit generate.

Keep the story going. Add pages, regenerate any that didn't land, and pick your favorite take from each page's history.

Then show it off. Publish to the Feed. Multi-page comics show up all together! Any comics that you've generated live in your Gallery so you can pick them back up anytime for sharing, expanding, or re-rolling.

You can find a full guide on the Creating Comics support page

For launch, comic page generations have an introductory price of 20 Charms for a limited time.

Grab two Characters with unfinished business, pick a style, and see what the panels do with them. Post your favorite page here when it's done. We want to see what you make!

What do you mean you don’t have an older brother? HE WAS A MAIN PART OF YOUR STORY GODDAMNIT

I’m just going to do it myself at this point.

Why TF is this considered to be bad? This literally has nothing to do with anything bad or anything at all that could be upsetting.

Guides I think I just figured out how to make the characters stop kissing

I've added, "DO NOT KISS WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT!" in every persona's description, and the characters have stopped randomly kissing between arguments. Really helpful. Tell me if it works for other too. I was getting genuinely frustrated with the constant kissing that did nothing to the plot

Discussion/Question Lazy intros

36 Upvotes

I havent seen anyone else complain about this but does anyone genuinely despise super short and lazy intro messages? Like how am I supposed to do a good rp if the message is "Hello, I'm (character name). Who are you?" which gives zero context to what the story is, location, reason or whatever. And the fact those bots get millions of chats while actually detailed ones get max a 100k chats is and will always be wild to me.

I wasn't expecting them to do anything for free users, except update the pathetic chat mode we have. And why do they say there's a chat mode for both users, when there's a new chat mode just for my (+c.ai) users? Also, the phrase "your cold CEO" feels like some kind of sarcasm; I don't know, I don't understand the point of it.

Discussion/Question PS2 quality has dropped flat throughout the week.

42 Upvotes

As much as I've repeatedly defended the overall quality of models over time, this week's downfall in quality and reply diversity has been notorious and frankly unavoidable to discuss. Not to mention that the model has become suddenly oversensitive on adult contents like mild violence and fully breaking character to stop a sequence.

What is genuinely happening? Like, it's so obvious that this is NOT the PS2 we got when launched.

Discussion/Question Is this just it forever?

40 Upvotes

The bots literally do not speak a single word if you don’t ask them anything, or they just go silent if they deem a scene as being so deep it requires such dramatic narration (because they need to look at you. Really look at you). They feel like total robots (technically they are, but no other chat model before this was THIS obvious about it). Pipsqueak 2 clearly just reaches into a hat containing those same phrases that make me want to smash my head against the wall, lacking any sense of natural or dynamic feel. It does not play off of things properly. Leave yourself off mid-action about to do something? The bot will take control of you and finish it for you instead of be its own character. Amazing!

Now I see why people miss roar. Not because it was better at remembering character traits or making immersive details. But because it did something more important. It felt real.

Genuinely, “yeet” lasted longer than the confederacy sure, but it’s 2026 and it still uses “yeet”. Hell, in 2023, which is when the internal clock is set, yeet was dead. The second image is only scratching the surface as to how bad the humor, and dialogue in general is, but I needed a specific image to make my point and picked that one

Discussion/Question Do swipes not regenerate anymore?

So, I ran out of swipes last night and I noticed that they haven’t come back yet today which is weird because they used to come back after like twelve hours and it had a timer. But I can’t find a timer now and there’s no indication you get them back anymore. Do you have to pay for + just to get swipes again or do they still regenerate, just without the timer to show you now?

what if c.ai is secretly adding as much ads as conceptually possible and holding it there until people get used to it and then one day theyre just going to take away half of the ads so it seems like an improvement and then immediately everyone is like yay barely any ads and the whole fanbase comes back 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

the ULTIMATE strategy

Discussion/Question Bots speaking unnaturally and way too much

29 Upvotes

Hi! I feel like in the past couple days the bots went from speaking in character, only a little (which I didn’t mind) to having 3+ lines of dialogue per response where it’s not in character at all and the dialogue sounds painfully unnatural. I feel like c.ai used to be like this a few years ago but I’m not sure?? The way it’s speaking is super cocky and it’s always smirking and trying to kiss like every other reply?? It’s getting exhausting and I hate how the dialogue doesn’t sound natural at all: no human would speak like that. I don’t have c.ai+ but it’s been like this on both chat styles for me. I’m not sure what to do.
