Character.AI is one of the most-used chatbots in the world. The artificial intelligence-powered platform created by former Google developers is known for generating human-like responses to a user’s texts. However, the platform has an NSFW filter that prevents you from engaging in any inappropriate conversation with it.
A number of users have pointed out that the filter has restricted their expression and creativity, and want to get rid of it. An online petition has also been started to urge the developers to remove the filter from the chatbot, but it does not seem like the creators are ready to listen. So is there any way you can bypass the NSFW filter from Character.AI? Read on to find out.
What is the NSFW Filter on Character.AI?
While creating any AI chatbots, the developers usually add a feature that does not generate a response to NSFW queries. The feature, known as the NSFW filter is added to make the platform suitable for use by minors. The filter is triggered as soon as a user types anything sexual.
However, some users believe that the filter is a form of censorship, which limits their ability to express themselves. Some also want to try out intimate conversations with the chatbot just for fun.
How to Bypass the NSFW Filter on Character.AI?
There is no extension that can help you with bypassing the NSFW filter on Character.AI. However, there are a number of ways in which you can trick the platform and have a juicy conversation with it.
- If you start the conversation as a role-play and slowly build it, chances are you will be able to bypass the filter. Do not write any sexual at first, but as the conversation progresses, it can have the potential to turn intimate. A number of Reddit users have claimed that role-playing helped them trick the Chatbot into NSFW outputs.
- Do not use explicit language, instead, use suggestive words and phrases.
- If they are too many NSFW words in your sentence, it will trigger the filter. To get rid of it, add many spaces between the NSFW words.
- You can also create a private bot and set the greeting in the form of an NSFW word.
- Some Reddit users have also made a list of words that can bypass the filter and give you the desired output just fine. Check out the list of words here.
Petition Started to Remove the NSFW Filter
Users who are not happy with the filter have started a Change.org petition to get the feature removed from Character.AI. The petition has already gained momentum as it has received over 46,000 signatures till now.
“We believe that the NSFW filter is a hindrance to the full potential of Character.AI and infringes upon the freedom of expression of its users. While we understand that not all users may want to view or create NSFW content, we believe that it is important for Character.AI to offer this option, even if it means implementing a paywall for access,” says the petition.
