Character.AI, the GenAI site that convinced some children to kill themselves, has gone bankrupt after parents sued them.
we found hordes of chatbots explicitly dedicated to themes of pedophilia, suicide, self-harm, and eating disorder coaching, as well as a thriving community of users creating chatbots designed to simulate school shootings, romanticize real mass shooters, and even impersonate the real child victims of mass shootings.
A lot of them will be bringing in trillions once the “free-era” of AI usage is over and everyone is hooked and can’t function without it.
Then the monthly rates come in. The AI companies will own everything we touch.
That was the idea, anyway, there is no demand for most full price ai service s
People literally will not be able to afford it. Neither will companies.
They will. Because they won’t be able to function without it. They already can’t think for themselves without asking their AI for help.
Trust me. They’ll pay.
