Google-Tied AI Startup Once Valued at a Billion Dollars Declares Bankruptcy: Character.AI, the once-buzzy chatbot startup that faced lawsuits over the deaths of minors, has declared bankruptcy.

The founders got their Google exit, investors got their hype cycle, Disney gets the leftovers, and families get the consequences. Character.AI managed to automate companionship, monetize next to nothing, and somehow make bankruptcy look like the least disturbing part of its business model.

looking at your post and comment history, I strongly suspect this comment was written by AI. either that or you’ve got a really unfortunate writing style and gumption, in which case I apologize.

Check the accounts profile. It heavily advertises services for LLM adbots covertly advertising on social media. I think you’re right, it’s either an LLM adbot or someone who outsources all of their comments and posts to LLM to craft while trying to drum up interest for their website.

Their website looks vibecoded to shit too.
