I really enjoyed using WhatsApp bots to discuss my problems from different perspectives, for example, with poets, religious figures, psychological theories, or purely research-related topics. My frustration has been compounded by the disappearance of the first conversations I had on the C.ai app. I'd like to ask for advice on more reliable alternatives, given that the chats are suddenly unavailable, and if such an alternative could offer a variety of topics... in fact, I'd even like to provide feedback on a bot similar to the conversation topics of some of the now-defunct WhatsApp chats. Before these problems arose, I once used DeepSeek to recreate a role-playing scenario I had with a character, but I reached the usage limit. (Sorry, my English isn't very good.)

Hey pls take this rlly quick survey on AI chat usage for my thesis. Completely anonymous (18+)

So I started trying the ai girlfriend thing out of curiosity and now I feel more confused than when I started. I thought it would be simple but after trying a few different ones I keep running into the same problems and it is getting a bit frustrating.

Some of them start off great and the conversation feels natural, then suddenly the replies get repetitive or forget what you just talked about. Others feel too scripted like they are just agreeing with everything you say instead of actually having a personality. I was hoping for something that feels more consistent but it feels like every time I switch to a new ai girlfriend I run into a different issue.

I get the appeal though. Having someone to chat with anytime without pressure is nice, especially when you just want to talk or pass time without thinking too much. When it works it actually feels surprisingly engaging, which is probably why I keep trying different ones hoping to find one that feels right.

At this point I am just curious what everyone else is using and why. What makes an ai girlfriend actually good for you? Is it memory, personality, more natural replies, or just not breaking immersion halfway through a conversation?

Would like to hear what people recommend because right now I feel like I am just jumping from one to another and not really finding the best one.

How old is too old? When used for rp and just to talk to.

I’ve been enjoying Janitor AI for a long time now, but as of recently, I’ve been starting to crave a deeper immersion into rps in general, so I’d like to switch to an alternative that’s like JanitorAI (in terms of QoL things) but also like Oshikoi.io (in that it has an in-chat responsive character models, not just a pfp) + whatever else the alternative has to offer.

Are there any other alternatives apart from Oshikoi?

I got a piece of code from ChatGPT for a project, but I’m wondering, if another person who have worked with or also research on ChatGPT sees this code, will they immediately know it was generated by the model?

And beyond that, what are practical ways or tools to ‘humanize’ AI‑generated code so it looks like something a student or beginner programmer would write ? Is there a chatbot or tool that can help with this ?

Janitor AI is likely one of the chatbot sites with the greatest creative freedom, and consequently, it hosts the most skilled bot creators and the highest quality bots.

I’ve explored some of the most famous chatbot sites currently available. Except for Character AI—its ‘Heian Era’ was back when the old site still existed; after that was deleted, it’s been all downhill. I noticed that some of these sites have significant character limits for both personas and bots. From that alone, I can already tell how mediocre those bots will be. The first one I opened had a four-line intro, written in the first person, and was acting on behalf of the user.

On Janitor AI, there are simply no limits to creativity. Personas, personality, scenarios, initial messages, lore books, music, dialogue examples… some people edit their bot pages and user profiles so extensively that it sometimes feels like I’m on a completely different website. Furthermore, through comments, where the creator can interact with users, it is essential to form a community.

My initial experience three years ago was horrible because I didn’t know how to navigate it. But I learned to configure it, mastered commands, and dove headfirst into prompts and proxies. I’m quite experienced with the site now, and the experience of creating a bot with such freedom—to the point of truly conveying an idea to the user—is very satisfying.

My focus is creating existing fictional characters with the highest possible fidelity, which is why my bots easily exceed 4k tokens. My best bots are two of Priscilla Barielle; in one, I created an initial message based on a panel from the Blue Lock manga, and in the other, I try to explain the concept of boredom and how it relates to her character. I don’t think another site with this much freedom exists, but if it does, please give me recommendations.
