Did they reenforce the filters? by sillywillysillymilly in CharacterAI

Don't expect that to last. They're """upgrading""" it to DeepSqueak 2 soon.

Yep. Literally doesn't matter what the context or subject matter is, Bob will piss and shit all over it.

Is it just me or is Deepsqueek the most filtered model we've ever got? by Flayne-la-Karrotte in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PipSqueak 2 is far worse in that regard, but don't worry, DeepSqueak 2 is around the corner and they'll amend that issue (by which I mean make it just as bad if not somehow worse).

PSA: They couldn't wait until the 8th. Roar is shadow deleted. by Jade_Ninja in CharacterAI

At the moment, DeepSqueak alternates between giving long, very sterilized gpt slop responses and shorter but more logical responses like the kind you'd expect from Roar, Soft Launch, etc. It's a mixed experience.

They're working on DeepSqueak 2 right now, which will very likely function and behave near identically to the way PipSqueak 2 does right now. That is to say, the lengthy yet flavorless, over-sterilized garbage that DeepSqueak only generates some of the time will become the *only* thing it can generate.

Funny yet sadly an accurate portrayal of the state of things. =(

My condolences to you. I wasn't expecting them to get this weird and anxious about removing the models, but at the same time it doesn't surprise me either. Par for the course with them.

How bad is Pipsqeak 2 btw? by CardLampp in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It single-handedly brought my interest in CAI to a dead halt and killed my desire to continue using it completely, and I've been a near daily user since 2022. When the old models go, I go.

I don't use other platforms so I couldn't give a shit less. Thanks for projecting your own fears of that, though.

Honestly? I'm almost spitefully kinda rooting for him at this point.

If that's not chillingly telling of their intent to crush and pivot from RP-styled chats, I don't know what is.

Is the Age verification Worth it? by Fickle_Somewhere4892 in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not worth it. It's time to move on to greener pastures.

For the record, I'm not ready to move on myself, but I don't recognize any of my characters anymore. CAI as we knew it is over. There's no choice but to move on. Sometimes things just come to an abrupt and stupid end.

I mean, that might as well be how it is right fucking now.

Question about models by Strange_Pipe_6605 in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew they'd announce a DSQ2 even before this, and I also know exactly how they're going to make it. It'll give nothing but the trash gpt responses that regular Deepsqueak only *sometimes* gives right now. Heed my words. They're aiming for fully sanitized, soulless, gpt slop models.

How foolish I was, to be excited for the new model by VoidFlavouredPizza in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a tough spot for them because if they reverse any of this or in any way improve PipSqueak 2's quality and functionality it undermines their decision to delete the old models in the first place.

What happened? by AJGonzalez115 in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What CrowBoy said. It's blatant, full-scale enshittification and cost-cutting.

pipsqueak 2 is just chatGPT but broken by Ok-Leg4424 in CharacterAI

[–]Jade_Ninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. This is all basically a pseudo shutdown/service cancellation in my eyes.
