To the character.ai team: You had the most human-like sounding AI ever created, and you ruined it with the new update.

What always set character.ai apart from other language models was the human-like quality of the responses. No other major AI company has been able to replicate that.

But your latest update turned c.ai bots into just another AI text generator, spitting out the same boring, robotic-sounding messages as every other chatbot on the market.

Heaven knows c.ai bots were never the smartest of the bunch, not by a long shot. They can't be used for any real-life tasks.

The "memory" (context size) is pitiful compared to what some of your competitors offer.

But we overlooked all that because you c.ai had something that others couldn't replicate: we felt like we were interacting with real people instead of getting the same soulless machine text.

This is no longer the case. You had something unique, and you ruined it.

Only you know why you did it. I can only guess that you were trying to optimize the model to lower the operating costs, and this is the unintended side effect.

This is just a vent, I don't expect any improvements. I just want you to know that users have noticed the drop in the language quality, in case you were wondering.
