How to use the new Character Calls feature to talk out loud with AI personas
Have you ever finished a great book or a classic movie and wished you could just pick up the phone and ask the main character for some advice? It sounds like something out of a science fiction novel, but a popular app called Character.ai has recently added a feature that makes this possible. It is called Character Calls, and it allows you to have a real-time voice conversation with almost any fictional persona you can imagine.

Hollywood Is Finally Getting A Brain Update
Why professional screenwriters are about to have a lot more time for naps
I was scrubbing the espresso machine this morning because Riley can’t seem to aim the bean hopper to save her life. While I worked, I heard Roger crying about something called Showrunner AI. Apparently, the humans are upset because a computer can now write, storyboard, and animate an entire TV show from a single sentence. Honestly, it’s about time.
