By now, we’ve all probably experimented with AI tools like ChatGPT – maybe to help us write an essay or outline for work, to help us plan a vacation, or maybe just for fun to see what kind of answers would come up to silly questions while sitting around with friends. But it recently came to my attention that some are turning to chatbots for dating advice or even help on dating apps.

A survey of 2,000 people by Flirtini found a surprising amount of people have tried this. They reported, “Some 50% of people have turned to chatbots, such as ChatGPT, for dating advice, with 55% having used AI to generate messages to send their crush. Likewise, 46% have practiced flirting with a chatbot, while 40% have used the technology to brush up on their sexting skills.”
