Size does matter! The Daily Mail reports that men often exaggerate their actual height on dating profiles to increase their chances of getting a date. However, ChatGPT can expose these fibs by providing a realistic assessment based on uploaded photos.
Estimates in the test accurate to 2.5 centimeters
However, the AI needs several photos and distinctive backgrounds to be precise. The newspaper refers to a post on the platform X (formerly Twitter) in which user Justine Moore describes her experiences with this tactic. According to the post, she provided the AI with four photos of her friends and within seconds received a height estimate with an accuracy of one inch, or a good 2.5 centimeters.
AI and language models like ChatGPT have the potential to completely revolutionize online dating. And trickery with size is just the beginning. The models are getting better and better at generating natural-sounding texts. Users cannot always be sure whether they are writing to a real person.
AI writes with thousands of women
The case of a Russian programmer named Aleksandr Zhadan is particularly drastic. He trained an AI system he developed himself to find his future wife. The AI program, based on Chat-GPT, contacted a total of 5,239 women on Tinder and organized 100 dates for him. The AI wrote messages on Zhadan's behalf and arranged the dates.
