Character AI

Character.AI lets users chat with digital versions of well-known figures — from celebrities and athletes to public leaders — and has become popular for those who enjoy lively, realistic conversations rather than simple question-and-answer exchanges. It also offers a shared experience, allowing several users to interact with the same character at once.

Recently, the platform introduced a new feature that lets people create videos with their own characters, expanding its creative possibilities even further.

However, the platform has also faced criticism and legal challenges related to the content it produces, particularly involving younger audiences. There are also ongoing concerns about chat dependency and the depiction of real individuals without permission. Although Character.AI includes a notice stating that users are interacting with fictional digital personas, debate continues about the platform’s broader impact and responsibilities.
