Vladimir Putin, Beyoncé, Super Mario, Harry Potter, and Elon Musk — these are just a few of the millions of artificial intelligence (AI) personalities available for conversation on Character.ai, a well-known platform that allows users to build chatbots that are modelled after real or fictional persons.

Since the bot's creation just over a year ago, a total of 78 million messages—18 million since November — have been shared with it. The guy behind the account is Blazeman98.
Character.ai claims that 3.5 million individuals visit the website every day, but it did not specify how many unique users visit the bot.
