>but no one on /g/ of all places on the internet should think this is anything new.
What's new is mainstream normalization. For both Anthropic and OpenAI, they know people want stuff like this but go out of their way to censor it (OpenAI changes filter strength almost weekly). CharacterAI, while huge, was also very censored. This, however, is openly signalling "look, you want sexy waifubots, right?" which all the big players aside from DeepSeek have been avoiding. It forces a reaction, in a way that is kind of like DeepSeek but for culture instead of tech. At investor meetings, people will be asking about why XYZ company does not have an Ani.
