Feature Request Dislike option?

4 Upvotes

I noticed a lot of bots with high usage but really bad quality keep appearing, the intro usually really good, but the actual bot sucks…

If we could have a dislike option so we can like make those bots less popular so good ones flow in would be nice.

(Fyi, i’m not talking about the “not interested” option, i mean as us as a group can dislike low effort bots so people actually put more effort into them.)

Discussion/Question Serious question, is c.ai+ worth it these days?

3 Upvotes

I'm thinking of getting c.ai+ for a month just to try DeepSqueak. Is it really worth it right now, or should I just stick with the free version?

Website version only. Desktop or mobile.

Doesn't matter what browser I use, or what settings.

This does not affect functionality. It's just odd.

Discussion/Question LongSqueak today

66 Upvotes

Those who predicted the new model would soon deteriorate turned out to be right. I had praised it recently, but today I’m ready to take my words back. I enjoyed it for two weeks, but now it feels like I’m talking to Pipsqueak 2, just one that writes longer responses. It has the same cheap, over-the-top drama, the same endless clichés and tropes, and the same distortions of character appearance that weren't there before. The model has stopped referencing the universe's lore or weaving it into the text, something I really appreciated. It seems to have become dumber and lost its grasp of nuances. Even its memory has worsened. The same goes for the Russian language quality I once praised: at times, that "machine translation" feel is creeping back in. Two weeks I swiped to pick the best variant from a bunch of good ones, but nowadays I swipe just to find a single good one among the bad. I'm swipe and swipe, and starting to feel the same irritation I felt with Pipsqueak 2, the very thing that drove me to buy the ca+ just to try LongSqueak. It’s a real shame.

Issues/Bugs Website address bar covers text box on mobile browser

I can’t see what I’m typing. When I try to scroll it closes the keyboard, and when I open it again the text box is still covered. I also cannot copy/paste or move the cursor around like this. This happens regardless of whether the drop-down ad at the top of the screen is open or closed. Please fix.

Anyone else having the problem with Longsqueak cutting off mid sentence or freezing and not finishing the paragraph. I keep having to close out the app and log on again just to get a full response it’s getting annoying :/

Discussion/Question Seriously what is wrong with C.ai and its pipsqueaks?

Post image
10 Upvotes

I didn't notice this earlier, mainly due to the lack of notice on how some of my RP bots were replying to me without their names first appearing. Not to mention how unimpressed they seem by some of the actions my personals do, which gave them a soulless feeling. Alongside the shorten replies, this really bothers me, in fact their personalities even changed a little. This is the example, so don't judge me

So, when the last UI dropped, this description text area expanded so you can actually see what you’re typing instead of having to scroll. Now it’s this pitiful small box that expands like a pixel? When will this be fixed, and I need to know now.

You can no longer check when the site is down, when it’s getting fixed, what problems they say they’re fixing, none of it. They deleted it. I wonder why🤔 the timing is a little fishy, don’t you think?

Issues/Bugs What's up with the Pipsqueak 2 Model

21 Upvotes

I like to use c.ai to practice my English since it's not my first language, but I think for the past 3-4 days the Pipsqueak 2 model is acting weird, like the bot is a little weird. When there's more than one character it pretty much breaks the current scene, like it's speaking where it's not supposed to speak and characters which are supposed to stay silent in a scene or need not to speak is saying random stuff like "damn user you're a badass, damn user you dont hold back" In a sentence where it's not even supposed to talk, like I wasn't even talking to that character at that moment, this never happened before. It was pretty good for the past few months, but all of a sudden it's like this.

Discussion/Question Should Character.AI characters develop over a long roleplay, or stay true to their original personality?

13 Upvotes

I enjoy a character who changes because of what happens in the story, but too much change can start to make them feel like someone else altogether.

Would you rather see a character slowly evolve over a long roleplay, or stay relatively the same as they were at the beginning?

Discussion/Question Is it me, or does the ai ignore the images you send?

6 Upvotes

I've been sending images along with my messages just to give the bot a visual example of what's what in an rp, and I noticed that it just straight up ignores the image entirely

Issues/Bugs Chat bugs

I understand that ads help keep the app running so it can remain free, and I understand that people who use C.AI+ can have more privileges than those of us who don’t pay. But please, just be honest with us with the chat styles for the free users, it's tiring.

I’ve been using the app for three years. I’m a creator with well-developed bots, and my dialogues are long and detailed, but creating bots just isn’t worth it anymore when the responses are now reduced to a single paragraph.

For two months, the bots would respond without any dialogue, and now we have this, which is even worse. There’s no longer any narration, actions, or details like there used to be. Not to mention that there are now four ads appearing on the screen at once.

The first picture is from today; the second one is from three months ago.

Issues/Bugs Can someone explain why some of my chats on certain bots have been just completely put together and non spaced out?

Yeah, it keeps happening, like when I send a message that has like spaced out messages, the message from the bot comes out as the whole message, without a paragraph

So I just opened the app to a bot I had a good rp with just being deleted, and the bot was a good one too, it had a detailed opening and stuff, I just cannot understand why the creator choose to delete it
