16 Apr
Summary
- New AI feature allows users to role-play within classic literature.
- Feature launches with over 20 public domain titles like Dracula.
- AI offers immersive storytelling beyond basic chat functions.

Character.AI has launched an innovative AI feature called Books, enabling users to role-play as characters within classic literature. This new offering expands beyond typical chatbot interactions to provide an immersive storytelling experience.
The feature debuted with more than 20 public-domain works, including "Alice in Wonderland," "Pride and Prejudice," and "Dracula." Users can select to embody characters from these texts or their own created personas.
Character.AI provides distinct modes for interaction. 'Story Modes' allow users to follow the original plot with 'Book arc mode' or diverge with 'Go off script mode.' Future additions like 'TapTale' will offer guided narratives.
Alternatively, 'Alternate Universe Remixes' let users reimagine literary settings, such as placing "Alice in Wonderland" in outer space. This feature offers a dynamic way to explore classic stories and characters.
