Character.AI, an AI chatbot platform, launched new multimedia features including AvatarFX for video generation, Scenes for pre-populated storylines, and Streams for character interactions. Users can create and share videos featuring AI characters on a new social feed. While expanding creative options, the platform acknowledges past safety concerns, including lawsuits related to harmful chatbot interactions. Character.AI implements safeguards like preventing real-person uploads and watermarking videos, though the potential for misuse remains.
