Character AI is hands down the most popular AI tool when it comes to chatting with your favorite characters- – from politicians to business gurus to comedians, you can chat with them all.
But is character AI private? In other words, are your chats on Character AI hidden from others (you don’t want to become every other creator’s laughing stock).
Here is the truth:
Is character AI private? The truth about character AI chat privacy
Short answer: Character AI is completely private.
Put another way, not only are your conversations 100% private but even the characters you’ve been interacting with(It will be seen by you only).
But there’s a caveat:
Just ensure that you have selected (under Character AI’s privacy settings) your content(Characters you create/generate) to be visible to you(only).
I hope you know where to access privacy settings when in the community.
Also, specify how you want Character AI to treat what you create/post(if you want everything to be shared with all digital creators in the community or not- restricted to you)
To add- and I think this adds an extra layer of security for your content, moderators will, on occasion, review a post Character or post you may have chosen to be shared with the entire community(you may have done it by accident).
To be clear, it does not mean they will block it outright- no! the mods first assess if it may impact you or the community negatively before deciding the route to take.
Isn’t that reassuring?
