According to an Associated Press report, Lansley is among a growing number of people turning to AI chatbots as de facto dating coaches and relationship experts. The report highlighted her experience as an example of the complicated relationship between technology and romance.
Lansley, who described her approach to dating as “trying everything,” said she finds it difficult to initiate conversations on dating apps despite being comfortable doing so in person. She consults AI chatbots for help in crafting opening messages.
“I am open to AI finding me the love of my life, but I’m also not fully convinced that it can,” Lansley told the AP. “AI is great at making dating more efficient. But the chemistry — that’s always going to be analog.”
The report did not specify which chatbots Lansley uses or how many people share her experience, but it described her case as part of a broader integration of artificial intelligence into personal aspects of life.
