#i watch in horror as my little sister pulls up c.ai to talk to migel ohara for hours

i cannot even begin to explain how much AI is ruining fandom. chatting with Character AI seems cool at first but the way today's kids literally roleplay on their own??? makes me SICK. i wish they could have the same fandom experience we had. back in our day people would make group chats and everyone would pretend to be a character. they would make accounts dedicated to those personas, they would commit to that shit. they would post as that character and leave comments and reply to messages and asks. back then we had creativity and we celebrated being weird and cringe together and most importantly FANDOM WAS A COMMUNITY. it wasn't just a pastime or content to consume. it was about sharing your love for something with other people. meeting people that want to talk about the same things you do. making friends. the fact that today's teens sit in their room talking to a bot makes me feral. go online and find your people!! share your thoughts!! fandom is meant to be participated in!!!
