Comment on If you are paying to use "AI", who are you paying and what are your regular usecases?

  I don’t. It was the first example I found where you could write a character to talk to. I had fun seeing how different personality traits changed their responses. At the time most AI was censored, so I was using it like a less powerful ChatGPT that could swear, sometimes with the personality of Hannibal Lector. And sometimes as William Howard Taft. Among others.

  If you’ve read any amount of erotica you’ll know the sex scenes can be fairly boilerplate and repetitive, it’s the set-up that makes it interesting. For that reason I found the bots kinda boring for that purpose.

  Plenty of people have fun using it as intended, though. Lotta incest bots on there.

  The developer is a fairly active, positive guy who built up a nice community, so I like supporting him.

    I feel ya. I have 300+ followers on cai and it sucks how such a revolutionary technology has been hijacked by gooners and grifters.

      I wouldn’t equate gooners with grifters. I mean, has erotica highjacked literature? Porn highjacked film? Have dildos highjacked sex? My phone is a revolutionary piece of technology, and I can watch porn on it while connected via Bletooth to a programmable dildo.

      I can use it to indulge in lectures by nobel prize winners while using that same dildo.

      The need to get off is valid, human, and if it gets more people interested in technology, I’m all for it.
