🤔For people who actually use AI companions — do you care about the images, or is it all about the chat?

Discussion/Question

Quick question for people who actually use AI companions.Here's something that's been bugging me.

The chat can be deeply specific. You've built this whole scene — a rainy rooftop, a late-night kitchen, whatever. And then you ask for an image and you get… a generic studio portrait. A selfie. Something that has nothing to do with what's actually happening in the conversation.

I'm genuinely just trying to figure out if I'm solving a real problem or a problem only I care about.

  1. When you use AI companions, do you even want images? Or is it 90% about the chat?
  2. If you do want images — does "the image matches the actual scene" matter to you, or is a good portrait enough?
  3. What actually keeps you coming back to an AI companion — is it the images, the memory, the personality, the writing?
