It's post time! Recently Character AI has been discussing limiting or banning minors on their platform. They'll be using a third party check to determine a user's age. If someone is a minor, their account will be heavily limited. This is a natural progression after Character AI asked for birthdates and minors admitted to lying about their ages anyways. Children are so entitled recently that they think they're allowed in adult spaces just because they want to be there. And yes, teenagers are still children. Character AI is very popular with anime fans, but adults can't enjoy it because children are taking up the spaces, making poor quality bots, slowing down the servers, and spending time with AI instead of their own peers. It's fine for most adults to talk to AI in their spare time because they know it isn't real, and in most cases it isn't replacing real social interaction. Children are still in their developmental period and they shouldn't be getting their morals from adult characters that aren't made to be role models. This has been a problem in many communities for a very long time, and I think it's a good thing that Character AI and other companies are putting an end to children being in spaces they aren't supposed to be in. This may make things messy for a while, but I think it's a necessary step since kids can't take no for an answer anymore. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
