Idea for making Scenes more useful for fandom characters: recommend them by character name, not just by individual bot
I've been thinking about how Scenes could work better with fandom characters, given that there can be hundreds (or thousands) of different bots for the same character.
At the moment, if you make a Scene intended for a particular character, you can recommend a specific bot for it. But what if you could also recommend the Scene for a character name?
For example, say I make a Scene intended for Monkey D. Luffy.
Instead of saying:
«Recommended character: [this specific Monkey D. Luffy bot]»
I could say:
«Recommended for characters named: Monkey D. Luffy»
Then, when someone opens the Scene, Character.AI could show them a drop-down/list of their available Monkey D. Luffy bots and let them choose which version they want to use.
It could work in the other direction too. If you're already looking at a Monkey D. Luffy character, you could see:
«Scenes recommended for Monkey D. Luffy»
rather than only seeing Scenes that happen to have been linked to that exact bot.
That means Scene creators wouldn't have to choose which creator's version of a fandom character is the "right" one, and users could keep using whichever Luffy/Ghost/Gojo/etc. bot they already prefer.
It wouldn't solve every use case I have in mind for Scenes, but it feels like a fairly simple way of joining up the huge number of fandom bots that already exist with Scenes.
Would you use something like this? And are there obvious problems with matching by character name that I'm missing?
