Hey there,

Every year before Valentine's Day, I send out some statistics about online dating and how people can most likely find love. I've been busy editing my new book, PEERtainment, and experimenting with AIs and thought, "what dating advice can AI give us?" (and check out the AI-generated images...)

You.com Chat gave me dating advice for older professionals...

If you're an older professional looking to start dating again, the most important thing is to take your time and be patient. Don't rush into anything and make sure you're comfortable with the person you're seeing before taking things further. It's also important to set boundaries and expectations early on so that you both know what you're looking for and can avoid any potential conflicts.

Additionally, make sure to be honest and open about your interests, values, and beliefs to ensure that the relationship is based on mutual understanding and respect. Finally, don't forget to have fun and enjoy yourself throughout the process.

ChatGPT - 7 tips for dating in 2023

As an ai language model, I don't have personal experiences or emotions, but here's some general advice that might be helpful:

1. Be yourself: authenticity is key in any relationship, and being true to who you are will help you attract someone who is a good match for you.
2. Communication is key: make sure to communicate openly and honestly with your partner. This will help you avoid misunderstandings and build a strong, healthy relationship.
3. Take things slow: don't rush into anything. Relationships take time to develop, and it's important to get to know someone before making any big commitments.
4. Know your boundaries: make sure you are comfortable with the pace of the relationship and understand what you want and don't want in a partner.
5. Be open to new experiences: trying new things together can help you bond and grow as a couple.
6. Embrace your differences: relationships are about bringing out the best in each other, not about trying to change one another. Embrace your partner's differences and learn from one another.
7. Don't be afraid to seek help: if you're struggling in your relationship, don't be afraid to seek help from friends, family, or a professional.

Remember, every relationship is unique and what works for one couple might not work for another. It's important to find what works for you and your partner and to always be open to growth and change.

• There seems to be some consensus on dating advice... Maybe it is good advice? I asked a couple people at my local coffee shop and they agreed it was some good advice.

Who Would a Robot Date?

I asked a few different AIs who they would date and with some coaxing, I was unable to get them to really answer the question...

Robots are artificial intelligence entities and do not have the capacity to form romantic relationships or feelings. Dating is a human experience that involves emotions and personal connections, which robots do not possess. The idea of a robot dating a real person from any time in history is purely hypothetical and not based in reality.

Ok then.

Since the first image was a little sad looking, I decided to ask Midjourney to make the cutest, cuddliest, teddy bear in a bed made of red, heart-shaped pillows. Enjoy...

That's all folks.
