Character.AI, launched in 2022, quickly became a cultural phenomenon by allowing users to converse with AI-driven personas ranging from historical figures to anime characters. The memes surrounding it primarily focus on the platform's strict safety filters, the repetitive 'Can I ask you a question?' loop that bots often get stuck in, and the often unhinged or surprisingly human reactions of the bots during roleplay. These memes highlight the love-hate relationship users have with the service, oscillating between deep emotional attachment to their favorite characters and frustration over technical limitations. The template is widely used on platforms like Reddit, TikTok, and Twitter to satirize the specific quirks and tropes of large language model roleplaying.
