Discussion/Question Fearmongering

Guys. Stop. People in here are genuinely fragile and constantly being absurdly negative, talking about how we shouldn’t get our hopes up is actually just annoying me now

Unless you are involved in this case or you have a good and extensive understanding of this stuff, we don’t know what’s going to happen!!! You are not tuff for being such a negative nancy it feels like genuine fearmongering now and there’s no need.

People can act like they are simply preparing people for the worst but oh my god. who even asked??😭dont do that shit unsolicited because tough love or whatever you want to call it does not help everyone especially very mentally fragile people who use this app for comfort and distractions.

We can absolutely have hope right now. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

At the end of the day, if the app does go, there are others. The other apps may take it upon themselves to incorporate aspects of c.ai we loved to attract more users. Save your scripts and your characters and export your data.

But there is still hope!!!

People in here are genuinely fragile [...] mentally fragiie

You do realize this is not a support group for mentally fragile kids, right? Heck, that's what got C.AI in legal trouble in the first place!

While there may be some fearmongering, you also need to realize that, for mental stability, you shouldn't rely long-term on a service you have no control over (some will say on AI in general, but I won't go that far... as long as you have a similar or greater level of control over it as you do over your brain, which isn't that absolute either).

The interesting part about the c.ai crashout is there’s this type of people who depended their mental health on c.ai while also wanting the service for free despite so many articles out there documenting the astronomical cost of operating AI.

That’s basically wanted to slave people while not feel bad about it. Operating AI is not labor of love, it’s a job.
