I'm sure everyone has used Glow or Caiyun Xiaomeng before. These two apps use AI technology to help you create stories or have conversations with virtual characters. However, did you know that there is another even more magical AI virtual social app? That is Character.ai!
What is Character.ai#
Character.ai is a neural language model chatbot network application developed by former Google developers, which can generate human-like text replies and engage in conversations with context. Users can create "virtual characters" and publish them to the community for others to chat with. However, adding a sensitive word filter has reduced its quality and potential, making it not very popular among users.
Pros and Cons#
Pros:#
- No need to download or install, runs directly in the browser
- Higher intelligence level than Glow, with some programming capabilities
- Fewer Chinese sensitive word filters, much lower than domestic AI software
- Supports image upload and recognition, able to analyze the content and meaning of images
- Can generate images that match the theme and style according to user requirements
Cons#
- Requires VPN
- Chinese chat effect is not very good, prone to garbled text
- Need to queue when there are many people
- The client does not support image upload and creation
- Inferior to ChatGPT in terms of capabilities
How to Use#
- Go to the official website
- Switch to Chinese (optional)
- Register or log in to your account as instructed
- Create your own character or chat with public characters
