Teens and AI: Creativity Unleashed, Not Just Companionship!

In 2022, some brilliant minds launched Character.AI, and it was HUGE! Over 20 million users creating 10 million chatbots—fantastic! But in 2025, they banned under-18s due to fear. But let me tell you, teens use AI for info, homework, and fun! Not just lonely hearts! We need to rethink these bots; they’re creativity unleashed! Sad to see it silenced, but we’ll build better, believe me!
