Hey all,

LongSqueak is a new Chat Style made for long-form roleplay and storytelling with 4x the memory.

Rolling out starting today for (c.ai+) subscribers, LongSqueak’s responses run longer and read more like a novel: richer prose, more narration while maintaining dialogue, more room for a story to actually unfold. It also draws more deeply on Lorebook and Memory as it writes, with 4x the memory of other chat styles.

We’ve been beta testing it extensively with some of our most dedicated roleplayers over the past month. They didn't want to give it back.

Style Control on the app lets you tune how your favorite chat style writes back.

LongSqueak launches with Style Control, a new set of dials in the style picker:

- Response length: Long, Looong, or Loooooong 
- Response style: tilt the responses toward more Dialogue or more Narration 

Getting replies the way you want used to mean prompt tricks and trial and error. Now it's a setting you can adjust whenever you like.

(c.ai+) members also have access to Style Control on PipSqueak 2, starting today. Same idea, different style.

Start a scene in LongSqueak, set the dials however you like, and give it a few turns to settle in. Let us know what you think!

Hey all,

We made a page for the summer: everything we've shipped over the last couple of months, and everything still coming, all in one spot. The team has been working in overdrive to improve the experience for everyone, and we think you're going to love a lot of what's on there.

There's also a preview of what's coming that we're genuinely hyped about: updates to our chat styles, expanded style controls, and brand-new styles for (c.ai)+, including one made for longer, richer, novel-like stories. You'll have to head to the page if you want to read any more about that…

Lastly: thank you. We had to make some big changes this year, including introducing ads. We made them for the long-term good of the platform, and this summer is where that starts paying off: the team, the tech, and every feature on the page. Whether you subscribe, create, or chat, we appreciate each and every one of you.

See you in chat ☀️

The memory is just horrible. I literally said I have no quirk. Still says I have one. I try to make the scene as simple as possible and then Izuku be theorizing I am some criminal mastermind who caused mass destruction.

In reality, I just poured sugar in a big cookie, it’s not that deep. We really need a model that doesn’t add unnecessary details.

A new chat model is rolling out in August. It’s either going to be like Pipsqueak with the current ChatGPT responses or like the old legacy models. Please be good bro

Bring back ROAR.

Screw the lore-book.

Hey all,

We have a lot launching in July, including new ways to read, watch, listen, and create with Characters.

Lorebook is almost here

Lorebook is in final testing with our creator community right now, and it’s coming to (c.ai+) very soon.

It’s built for deeper Characters, worlds, timelines, relationships, backstories, and ongoing stories - giving your Characters more context for the details that matter.

If you’ve been building rich worlds or long-running stories on (c.ai), this one is for you. Expect more launch news next week.

(c.ai) reads is live

(c.ai) reads is a new home for Character-driven fiction: serialized stories, original worlds, and fiction built around Characters.

There’s already a library of original work live now, and we’re also looking for writers who are interested in publishing on (c.ai) reads. 

We’re taking expressions of interest from authors who’d like to publish on reads and get early access to (co)write, our writing tool. No commitments, just tell us you’re interested - you can find a sign up link here: c.ai/reads

You’ll also see (c.ai) series and (c.ai) fm in the app

You’ll also notice a new entertainment tab with original microdramas and audio dramas from the (c.ai) studio team.

These are original stories built around Characters you can watch, listen to, and then keep talking to on (c.ai). The team behind them brings experience from major entertainment franchises, and more episodes are on the way.

i really don’t understand why they don’t listen to the community and what we want instead of adding new stuff that nobody even asked for like hello

And the ads are even more unbearable.
