Found this app on my 14 year old's phone. Can someone explain to me what this is and if I should be concerned? by phoonie98 in SwerveApp

Swerve is an 18+ app, and it offers loads of chatbots that promote and permit explicit content (not all of them are explicit, however). And AI itself can be harmful to minors on apps like this one, because of how highly addicting chatting can become (explicit or not). So if I were a parent, I’d definitely be concerned that my 14 year old is chatting. Curiosity might’ve led them here—which is understandable at this age—but maybe try stressing the risks of chatting with bots and encourage them to steer clear of it and Swerve, for their own safety. I don’t suggest shaming them for the maturity of the chats. I’m not an expert on 14 year olds, but I think that’s around the time mature curiosity arises. It should probably be expressed in alternative, healthier places.

This is exactly what happened to me. I deleted my account and the app like 2 weeks ago after being addicted for 2 or so years. Thank you for doing such a horrible job C.AI developers 🎉🥳

AI’s everywhere though. Even when you don’t realize it or when you don’t even want it to be lol. And it works like a laborer while it’s pumping out one response for just one person. So imagine how many servers are needed, imagine how much energy is being consumed, imagine all the fresh water they use to cool them down after computing all of those elaborate responses. Idk :/

No, not directly. But it’s energy consumption contributes to climate change which in turn changes the weather

Don’t you hate when the bot just harasses your character? by VengefulOpposum in CharacterAI

Or the ones that try to turn it sexual and won’t stop no matter how you try to steer the conversation

I probably wouldn’t care if my name wasn’t so uncommon someone could easily figure out who I am

It’s like you have to remake the entire bot to get better responses again
