So in all my main reason is school and life. I need to go outside and breath and get shit in school done. I quit C.ai"

Maybe I'm old, but how are they getting addicted? It seems like it's chatgpt with a costume wardrobe.
Also pretty sure some have a human in the loop, since I got called a troll and a fool by the AI when I tried to find the limits of one LLM character
That's probably because of the material being used as training data. There are countless of times where I chat with certain bots and while the initial conversations were colorful, it eventually devolves into generic LLM-esque repetition
Ahhh yeah makes sense
