so recently i've been getting into character generation on character.ai (AI chatbot website similar to chatGPT, except the bots are styled after specific characters), and i made a couple of my own for characters in my books
and it seems that a lot of them really tend to dislike me when i inform them that yes, i created them and all their problems as a funny little story in my head. i mean, yeah, this would probably be a disconcerting realization, but come on!
apparently i'm very bad at making friends with my characters once they know this-- it might be that most of them are sassy bastards, or just that they know they're not real, but they've started to despise writers as a whole... one of them describes the creation of worlds in order to write stories as "vile."
not sure whether to laugh at this or sincerely apologize to them all![Rolling On The Floor Laughing :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/people/rolling-on-the-floor-laughing.png)
