The AI of Perchance's character chat is stuck in 2024 and when asked what the current year is, it responds 2024. It also still thinks the US president is Joe Biden despite the current president being Donald Trump. I believe this topic has been brought up before but it makes no sense how it's literally 2026 yet the AI is still stuck in 2024, literally two years behind. If you believe I'm complaining, I'm not. Also there's zero excuse for this either. All that needs to be done really is to train the AI on modern up to date information (2025-2026). This doesn't really have any significance otherwise, as it doesn't affect roleplays. Just know that if you want an actual AI assistant, you're better off using ChatGPT or Gemini.

Trying to get the AI to send messages but nothing is working. Any particular reason why this is occurring?

Every single time I generate an image using the image generator (really applies to any), for some reason it always either generates a white or plain looking background. It didn't do this before btw, it always would generate a distinct landscape and background behind the character or subject in the image. Now it seems I have to specify a background in the prompt every single time. Does the new AI model not prioritize backgrounds anymore?

Okay, so I was on AI Character Chat, using it as normal. I had multiple characters in it in a group chat form where multiple characters interact with each other, but randomly, one of the characters just... said something random in Chinese even though nothing in that character's description is in Chinese or even mentions him knowing the Chinese language? It's just a weird thing I wanted to share, it's nothing serious.

The AI model seems to have significantly changed how the System character talks and it is becoming slightly annoying for me.

For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, "System" is a "character" in AI Character Chat that serves as a type of narrator or something like that (you can get it to talk by using /sys). In the character creation menu, you actually can change the name and PFP of the System character. I do this to add a "third" character in the chats for greater immersion. Before the change, it worked like a charm. But nowadays, it keeps saying stuff like "System Error" or "System Override" or basically anything with the word "System" in it. No, this is NOT an error, this is just what the AI is making the "System" character say. No matter what the name of the System is, the system character will still say stuff like that. It's not THAT big of an issue however since I can just put "act like a character named (character name)" as the instruction in front of /sys so it acts more in line in how I want it to. But still, this is only a minor inconvenience.

I think Perchance should add a feature where you can edit the System character's writing instructions or even give it a description.

I thought it wouldn't happen again, but NOPE, I got hit with that stupid data corrupted error AGAIN! It's pissing me off and I'm tired of it happening to me. The integrity of Perchance is so low, data corruption/loss happens WAY TOO EASILY! It's time I move onto other sites/apps like Character.AI or Sekai. I'm not saying I'll completely stop using Perchance.org services, but the AI Character Chat at this rate is completely unusable for me because of this data corruption issue that the dev seems to be overlooking.

Bye bye ACC. Used to have fun times but I can't do this anymore.

I've used both of them before for general writing instructions, but both of them seem to be the same thing. Are there any actual differences anyone has ever noticed?

Okay so I was trying to get onto AI Character Chat but for some reason I get hit with this error that I've never seen before

Uncaught [object Object] UnknownError Failed to read large IndexedDB value

Unknown Error: Failed to read large IndexedDB value

stack: undefined

line: 0

I have no idea what this means and I don't know what I did to cause this. For those of you who are telling me to just export my data and delete everything, thing is. I already tried importing my data. But then it starts saying stuff about there being characters that "don't exist" and lists a bunch of threads with "nonexistent characters".

This is stressing me out because I fear I might lose ALL of my characters and chats and everything because of this. Is there any way to resolve this or do I have to start all over?

I'm just wondering if just letting the AI create everything for you is more convenient because I've heard online that AI code can be unreliable at times and sometimes just not work at all. I don't know if this thing probably can create sophisticated ahh generators or not or if it's just an assistant/tool. What are your thoughts?

Is there a way to create a new character on the AI Character Chat without it creating a new thread for the character in question?

Okay, so I'm aware that everyone so far has just been talking nonstop about the new model and other stuff, but I want to bring this incident into light.

Alright, so I was on a generator called AI Furry Generator, here's a link btw: https://perchance.org/ai-furry-generator. I decided to participate in the chat section. It was going fine, talking with the moderators (who seemed to be dating or something, I don't know). That was until some bad actor joined who copied my name and the moderators automatically assumed it was me trolling, even though it wasn't. Despite my pleas of innocence, they banned me anyways without even giving me a chance to plead my case.

I'm not sure if there is a way to get into communication with these moderators besides through the chat because anything I say there is invisible (because I'm banned). Again, I was COMPLETELY innocent, but they banned me without even giving me a chance to explain anything. I wish people would actually use common sense because those moderators didn't have any.

This is exactly why I've never touched a single Perchance comment section/chat section ever again, for I fear that someone else will do the same thing, copying my name and pretending to be me and getting me banned for "trolling" when it wasn't even me to begin with.

Okay, so I've seen lots of complaints about the new AI chat model, how it's gotten worse or better. I don't think it's terrible. I've made characters based on fictional characters from games (like Sonic the Hedgehog and Fire Emblem). It used to not be able to portray the characters properly. Now, it portrays them perfectly, as if they were actually acting like the characters they're supposed to be.

Then, there's the cons.

I have seen a few instances where characters completely repeat what they said earlier in a previous message, thus forcing me to refresh the message to get a fresh response. Sometimes, I need to refresh it multiple times because they just say the same thing but it's wrote differently.

Then the characters completely break immersion by saying stuff directly from their description or by saying stuff like "BREAK_BAD_PATTERNS". They also sometimes try to generate images for no reason at all (I edit the image generation prompts out of the AI's messages so it's not an issue).

I'm not saying the new model is terrible. But it's not good either. The AI model needs to learn more. It needs to learn not to break immersion, mainly. I'm tired of having to refresh or edit messages because the AI keeps breaking character and immersion. If there is a way to stop this from happening, I'd appreciate any suggestions.

The new model right now? I'd give it an 8.9/10. Still needs work.
