Maybe? Never done such a thing on a date? Invited randomness to see how you both navigate? I never have a plan after the initial meeting. Just meet up and roll, open plans, no obligations. Much as I loathe AI, a ChatGPT suggestion might be amusing. Either party can kick it back, but it might give me a new idea. (Which is about all AI is worth in my life, prodding a thought I hadn’t had.)
EVERYTHING is open to misinterpretation when you meet online, especially before the first date, and even more so the older we get, what with baggage and such. The hard line in the sand looks like: MAGA, racism, stupid, etc.
The judging in this thread has me wondering if any of you have dated more than a person or three. Perhaps all humans should be on the same page regarding AI? Be nice, but it’s anything but real. If you reject me for this one minor item, what’s next? And what’s next? Next?

Maybe it’s just more important to others than it is to you. I’m a vegan married to a butcher, because we can disagree about even ethical questions and still be a good partnership. I wouldn’t fuck with someone who brought out AI like this, because I want a partner who’s present in their own life. It’s not petty, it’s a selection criterion, we’ve all got them, and most people’s don’t line up exactly.

Is it worth it to hand a tech giant additional information about and control over such a small aspect of your life? How much water was used for your queries? Where did the data processing happen? What does the drinking water in that town look like? Every choice we make has consequences and for a lot of people, being that thoughtless about your own choices is equivalent to stupidity or MAGAdom.
How about the water waste animals are responsible for? Would you have dated him if the first thing you learned was that he chops up dead animals for a living? AI is unethical, but killing animals, with all the ecological damage done is a thing you can put aside?
And this guy is thoughtless for using AI? I have a project for you. Walk down the street and ask random strangers what they know about AI. No leading questions, only this open question. (This is my prime annoyance with lemmy. Everyone here assumes the wider world knows what they know, and if they don’t act in accordance with what we know, they’re morons. FFS, most Americans can barely read.)
It was one of the first things I knew about him, yes. I was a vegetarian at the time, and he worked behind the butcher counter. He encouraged me to go vegan and I encouraged him to do his apprenticeship. Now that he’s nearly finished (final exam tomorrow!), he’s going to work for a vegan butcher shop. The water waste is awful. We do however get something out of it, making it not a completely pointless expenditure of resources. People have got to eat, and where I live, the tide is turning on meat products about as fast as I can imagine it going, but one of the better ways to facilitate that is to have a butcher who can tell you about how to make seitan without being judgy.
Why would I care what people on the street think about AI (I’m not going to ask people, because the last thing I want is to talk to strangers about AI, and people here would think I was trying to sell them something if I just approached them on the street)? I probably wouldn’t want to date them either. This guy might not know about the downsides, but does he just do things without thinking about them or learning what their downsides are? Would he be just as willing to try other new things without doing research, like renting electric scooters? Maybe he’s just lazy? Maybe he just thinks robots are cool and he doesn’t care to think about drawbacks, but does he also think cigarettes are cool? I don’t want to date someone with any of those qualities.
I suspect most people on lemmy would also prefer their partner to be able to read above a sixth grade level in their native language, or whatever the cutoff for that statistic is. That’s not because people on lemmy are unrealistic, it’s because lemmy is primarily text based and its users are not a representative sample for all literacy levels.

So you’re saying you agree with the woman in this story? 'Cause using ChatGPT to plan a date is already profoundly stupid, but to then TELL her that you didn’t think enough of her to actually think for yourself is even dumber.
She rejected him without question, but YOU know all the context here. And this is why memes manipulate our opinions. There are no real facts here, only her word and your assumptions. But this whole thread has spun a story!
Who rejected you that has you so invested in this story, dude? Seriously, get over her, try to figure out why you were rejected, and fix it. You don’t have to be an incel all your life.
