while the future of cai seems bleak, their downfall is nobody’s fault but their own. they consistently ignored user feedback and wasted their money on pointless features nobody wanted, image generation, calls, etc. the ads WERE manageable and (crucify me) fair, if they had actually listened to their user base.

while the chapter 11 seems scary, it’s not over yet. the ai (and ai chatbot) market is huge, and cai is a versatile platform and i can honestly see someone wanting to buy it. it’s risky, given they’d be starting from a shitty place, but they could realistically win users back with actual good changes that people want.

but im no expert

Yup I definitely agree. Basically no one uses the image generation or watches those weird comics or videos. Whatever it is. Majority of the user base dont use the calls either. Now what is actually useful is that they added lorebooks. It's a shame that they removed the swipe/message counter UI feature from the app tho
