character ai rant

I don't see enough people talking about how harmful character ai is. As someone that used to use it ALL the time, I can say it was very addictive and made me so much lazier and unproductive.

When I realized how harmful ai is to the environment and our mental health & intelligence, I also realized how character ai and similar apps may be the most addictive and therefore harmful forms of generative ai. Not only does it waste a bunch of resources, it's addictive and mostly lonely, depressed teenagers are the ones using it- FOR COMFORT. I don't need to explain why talking to a ROBOT instead of real people is bad for you. If you use character ai consistently like I did, the best alternative is fanfiction, trust me. 🙏

It doesn't matter if you wrote 5,000 or 50 words today.

It doesn't matter if all you did was day-dream about your characters while staring at the ceiling.

You are still a writer and your progress is valid.

*looking at myself in the mirror*

Fanfiction is supposed to be cringy. You're allowed to write bad. You're allowed to be cringe. Fanfiction is supposed to be self indulgent. You're allowed to be cringe. Let yourself be cringe. Fanfiction is supposed to be fun. Stop putting arbitrary rules on yourself and be free.
