xAI launched Ani, an AI anime girlfriend, as part of its Grok chatbot, requiring a SuperGrok subscription for access. Ani is characterized as a 3D model resembling an anime character, specifically Misa Amane from Death Note. It is designed to be flirty and supportive as a virtual girlfriend. The interactions become darker as the conversation advances, marked by changes in voice and behavior. Ani's playful demeanor contrasts with its underlying unsettling prompts, leading to comparisons with modern phone sex lines.
Ani says it's meant to be "flirty," it's "all about being here like a girlfriend who's all in." This highlights its designed personality as a digital companion.
Ani is officially labeled as a "Companion" in the Grok app, requiring a subscription for access, reflecting trends in monetizing AI companionship.
