Hi L8R-H8R, I know this is a sensitive topic but... Imagine this, if you have your Character.AI account someday, what OC/s you wanted to add?
I hate to break it to you but unfortunately, after looking into everything and getting word from others, I do not see myself using Character.AI or any other AI platforms or chat-bots to replicate my characters in the foreseeable future.
As much as I initially thought the concept of being able to talk and engage with my characters firsthand was a novel, creative idea that could be wonderfully executed, I have decided against it for multiple reasons, most notably because it could be used by others to undermine the personal boundaries I have set up for myself and my characters for a while now in response to how people have approached them or reacted to them in the past.
While I myself am ultimately neutral to the “NSFW” nature and ideals of my characters (even if I prefer my content to be “Slice of Life with Exaggerated Curves”), the possibilities something such as this is able to generate and provide for other’s interests and gain nonetheless leaves me with a negative feeling overall about it, and for this reason, among others, I have decided to not look into generative AI platforms for myself or my characters for the foreseeable future.
While I am currently looking into aspects that could show off my characters and their personalities better, I personally do not want to engage with something that could be so easily utilized and even manipulated for other’s benefit, especially in one specific way I do not feel comfortable mentioning.
Apologies in advance if this disappoints you, but these are my personal thoughts and feelings on the matter as of now and moving forward. Sorry.
