Character.ai being mentioned in the same line is a sign of the times.
The people yearn for the digital anime waifus
If you're not running your waifu on a local machine she's just a digital prostitute.
The one downvote on this comment makes it like 20x funnier
When you stop using a search engine and use AI-generated responses for everything, I guess having your LLM backends go down could qualify as having a disruptive functional impact.
A disruption to disfunctional search engines does not sound bad.
Well, the actual headline is:
Character.ai is only mentioned in the lengthy list of services that are down.
It even swapped in Twitch when I read it at the time. Headlines be changing.
And when I went there, it said Google, Cloudflare, and Frank's Dildo Emporium all down, like of all the random sites, why pick FDE?
Oh shit, a fellow FDE-head in the wild... What do you think of the latest Bad Dragons they just got in? I got one for 50% off, and it was only slightly used by Frank.
Ai? Or a catch headline
It's a joke. I don't think there's really a website called Frank's Dildo Emporium. But if there is, lmk.
You could just google it-
oh wait
Still a very important service for many people who are alone.😢
Self host your desperation.

What is character.ai? Have I been living under a stone? When I visit the page I have to log in just to learn what it is?
It's LLMs for ERP
... What's ERP? Or don't I want to know?
I put on my robe and wizard hat
Is that a bash reference? Jesus im old
Enterprise resource planning
Erotic resource planning
That's how I read it too at first- and as bad as 'erotic role play' with a LLM chatbot sounds, the other one is so much horribly worse.
My front-line guess is "Erotic Role Play" but I am not familiar with character.ai
I had guessed the nature of the site and "roleplay." It is a tad silly on my part to not have guessed "erotic"; thanks for getting me there (and not in an erotic way).
edit: Had left out the word "there."
