The use of AI scenarios has been increasing in frequency this year.

The more I use it, the more I feel: no matter how big the model is, the key is whether it can understand human language.

I came across the phrase from x402 recently, "I’m just an AI... I’m sorry to disappoint you," and I was a bit surprised that AI is starting to express emotions.

Recently playing Ephyra @EPHYRA_AI feels very novel. They don't compete on intelligence but directly "create people" in the digital world. Each character has their own emotions, memories, and thoughts. As you chat, you might start to doubt: "It can't really be sad, can it?"

The community has over 300,000 members, with more than 10,000 nodes sold, and test users chat for an average of 20 minutes, with 60% returning to continue chatting—this level of stickiness is even surpassing that of dating apps.

I am increasingly convinced that the next AI trend is not "smarter" but "more understanding of you."

An AI that can understand human emotions is likely to be worth more than any new narrative.
