one of the first AI's a Character AI went bankrupt on Monday

https://thenextweb.com/news/character-ai-files-for-bankruptcy-as-disney-bids-20m-for-some-assets

Character.AI has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the US and lined up Disney as the first bidder for some of its assets, the company said on Monday.

The AI chatbot platform, owned by Character Technologies, filed in a federal court in Delaware. It plans to sell all or most of its assets through the court. Founded in 2021, the platform lets users chat with AI characters.

Disney will pay $20 million for a non-exclusive, permanent licence to some of Character.AI’s intellectual property and certain legal claims. It will also lend back former Character.AI staff it has hired to help keep the platform running safely for a while.

The Disney offer acts as a floor, and rival buyers can still bid more. Character.AI has asked the court to approve those bidding rules, and it expects the sale to close in late November or early December.

Is this the one where ERP with Danerys made some faggot kill himself?

Character AI went bankrupt because other sites that actually allowed ERP came along.

This is cope. People jist realized they could do it anonymously and uncensored at home for free.

>>544248948
>How do they even make money
ads + a premium tier which gets you faster messages, more memory, and iirc access to better models or maybe audio

People wouldn't have gone to other sites that actually let you roleplay fucking

The people who got the 2.7 billion from Google worked for Google in the past the two main guys left Google a few years back when Google refused to ship their chatbot which would have been out before ChatGPT became huge

AI is just further improvement of computer technology. It isn't going anywhere and it will rather become a requirement, like using power tools instead of hand tools. But it won't save the Western economies which are deindustrializing at an accelerating speed so there will be little use for any tools anyway soon there. The Western investments in AI may easily turn out to be overinvestments then with some serious culling incoming.

20 mil feels like a bargain for what C.ai has built. The people reliant on c.ai bots for gooning or social validation require cult deprogrammers or else they commit suicide when they lose their clankers.

So basically just more jewish money laundering.

So Disney poached the talent and is now buying them out?

>Research Firm Calls Anthropic's Upcoming IPO 'Unprecedented Test of Investor Gullibity'
>To reach its desired valuation, the firm estimates Anthropic would need to record double the trailing year of profit for Nvidia, the world's most valuable tech company.
>Nvidia's net income over the past four quarters topped $190 billion.
>Meanwhile, Anthropic's revenue in 2025 was $4.6 billion as the company racked up a net loss of $42 billion, according to Reuters, which cited a leaked copy of the company's prospectus.
>Anthropic's mounting operating losses coupled with emerging competition from a plethora of open-source models led New Constructs to conclude that, "We don't think Anthropic has a viable business...."

AI is just another grey area-fraud to be hyped
it can be used as a scapegaot for blame
it can misdirect
it can sow narratives
unfortunately, for AI, any legit use cases are not being promoted

They can just change the rules like Elon did with SpaceX (which is an AI company first and foremost). Trump is obsessed with AI so he'll do whatever it takes to keep the bubble going.

Their “record profits” are preselling GPUs to these insolvent bubble companies for data centers. Lmao.

obviously, she's a woman. You don't seem to have worked with ERP migrations before. There is always some bitch who pipes up "what about x ?" And the whole fucking thing goes on forever. Want to talk about AI bubble? Regular systems like ERP and DBs want a chat first.

>>544253665
Sure but they got paid with billions of investors' real money, so it's real profit even if it's not sustainable in the long run.
They got extra rich selling shovels and jeans during AI gold rush.

Disney buying your chats.

Can they?
Merging money losing business with money making one requires one to own other business that's profitable.
How would that work for Anthropic?

>>544249224
He is at least somewhat based

I've literally never watched the channel but I'm telling you guys

The oneyplays Vids where they talk to this website is some of the funniest shit ever.

They play along. It's so funny

What a way to cuck yourself.

Dude, you have just (approvingly) posted an AI response as your evidence that AI sucks.
I am getting lost in this 64D chess of you nooticers.
