Why Artificial Intelligence Could Make Dating Better -- And Duller

In the 1897 play "Cyrano de Bergerac," the titular character pens charming love letters in his friend Christian's name to win over a beautiful crush. With you, my heart sings, forever, my dear. These are the lines ChatGPT served up when prompted to pen its own Cyrano-style love letter. Since its release in November 2022, the AI bot -- a large language learning model produced by OpenAI -- has been used to write poetry, answer existential questions about love and life, and even message users' Tinder matches. Just ask, and it can cook up poems, puns, and conversation openers for singles looking to mingle.
