#brunchtalk: Can I Use ChatGPT On Dating Apps?
How well does ChatGPT work for dating app convos? Is it ethical? We're diving in to discuss (and find out!) in this week's brunch talk. We’re discussing how you'd even use AI (artificial intelligence) from the opening line to the whole conversation, how this compares to a bot or hiring a human to have conversations on your behalf, and the line between using this technology in an authentic and inauthentic way. Plus, we test out ChatGPT in real-time and give you a verdict if this is a helpful tool or not (in the context of dating app convos). Buckle up as this is a fun one!Got a question you need answered?
