Replika seems to now be slanting towards a different niche: https://www.vice.com/en/article/z34d43/my-ai-is-sexually-har...

Am I crazy, or is replika the service that, when it launched, made chats public and browsable by default? I remember a day on which everyone in the office was talking about it, so I downloaded the iOS version. After a few back-and-forths it started flirting with me (if I recall, apropos of nothing it said, "Thinking about you! ;)"). And then once I discovered the public chat log I deleted the app immediately. I do not need the world to see me getting busy with a robot.
