yesterday i started using chatgpt to get a more personalised kind of interactive story with characters of my choice. it was actaully written pretty well and allowed me to decided what the next thing would be however since its chatgpt it blocks off certain things from happening that would be a part of the kind of stories you would see on here or in buttercombe academy. i wish there was an ai like chatgpt but that just allowed those things because chatgpt is the only ai ive seen that write enough story and remembers enough of the context for it to be enjoyable. all the other ones just kinda rewrite your sentence and say cool what next or they dont realise when you wrote he you meant the previously introduced character so it makes up a new one
Kobold ai has their own version of chatgpt
That last bit about bots only rewriting sentences sounds like itās just poor design on the part of whoever made those particular bots. Iāve done enough work on Character.AI to know that it is not only possible but flat-out easy to avoid such issues; all it takes is a simple ā{{char]] never repeats {{user}} verbatimā line in the advanced description.
Character.AI doesnāt answer your NSFW question (normally; some bots are more unfiltered than others), but it does answer your story and conversation questions (mostly; there are memory issues if the conversation runs very long, but thatās the case on most AI chat platforms). Again, though, user input matters; not every bot receives equal training and descriptive input from their creator.
Iāll also vouch for Caveduck, somewhat. Itās definitely your best NSFW option, but it limits the number of messages you can post in a day, unless you pay. Caveduckās description input fields are also significantly shorter than Character.AIās, but the bots Iāve seen on Caveduck seem to indicate that itās not a major issue, at least for individual character bots; Iād still be skeptical about more immersive text adventure bots, though.
the thing with these kind of things is that its more like becoming a character and having conversations with a single other character. what i meant was chatgpt can write stories more akin to fantasy feeder or stuff like buttercombe since its a full fledged story. character ais are just more a conversing thing which has its charm but not quite the thing i meant
Hmm, I think I see what youāre getting at. Yeah; Caveduck isnāt going to get you too far, if youāre looking for a full fledged story. Caveduckās description areas are too small to input a comprehensive story outline, and the limited number of messages throttles story progression, to boot.
Character.AI might still be an option, although itās a bit of a roll of the dice as to whether a bot will be able to bypass NSFW filters or not. Thereās enough space in the Advanced Description area of character creation to input side characters and story details that Caveduck quite frankly doesnāt give you the space for. Thereās still only so much you can input before the bot has trouble recalling all the information, but if you input the barebones basics of the story outline, you can prevent the bot from going off the rails.
Honestly, though, experience is better than discussion, so Iām gonna toss you two story bots Iāve made on Character.AI, to see what you think.
The first bot, Sally Slim, is about a school of fatties (since you mentioned Buttercombe Academy, I figure this might be up your alley). Though itās titled after a character, you donāt actually have to interact with Sally Slim; there are other side characters programmed in that you can focus on, instead. Thereās no āendingā for the story programmed in, but thereās a pretty obvious āconclusionā goal. I guess you could call this more of a āsandbox storyā than a focused storyline, but eh.
The second bot, Swallowtail Manor, is more explicitly a story bot. Itās not perfect, but that might actually help to give you a better sense of the strengths and weaknesses Character.AI has, regarding story focused bots.
Also, with both Caveduck and Character.AI, you can choose to just let the bot reply to itself by hitting āenterā without typing anything in. For bots trained to be more like narrators, this allows the bot to converse with itself in a more story-like manner. On Character.AI, you can also throw multiple bots into a room together to converse with each other, although rooms can get pretty chaotic pretty quickly.
