Gab AI is a platform that features various AI chatbot characters, each with a specific theme or personality. Users can interact with these characters. The platform aims to offer a novel way of exploring different viewpoints and suggestions through AI technology.[1][2] Gab AI is free to use and does not require signing up.[3] According to a representative from Gab AI, the platform provides a “venue for people to receive and impart ideas freely”.[4][5] It was launched to the public on January 24, 2024 by Andrew Torba, the founder and CEO of Gab AI, Inc., a social network known for its far-right content.[6][7][8][9]

Torba claims that Gab AI is an uncensored alternative to ChatGPT, a popular AI chatbot developed by OpenAI.[11][12] Previously, Torba had denounced ChatGPT as “satanic” and had urged Christians to create an AI that praises God.[13] He made an announcement in January 2023, expressing the company's AI agenda and emphasizing the need for Christians to actively participate in the AI arms race.[14]

In addition to the website gab.ai, Gab AI also has a progressive web application that can be installed on mobile devices.[15]

Characters

[edit]

Gab AI has more than 100 chatbot characters with a wide range of political and social ideologies, including Donald Trump[16], Joe Biden[17], Adolf Hitler[18], and Vladimir Lenin[19], as well as far-right nationalist[20] and far-left communist[21] characters.[22][23] It also allows users to play various text-based adventure games based on different themes.[24][25][26]

On February 9, 2024, Gab AI launched the image generation feature and gave users the ability to create their own chatbot characters.[27][28]
