Scientist teaches AI how to flirt with hilarious results

A scientist has taught various artificial intelligence learning algorithms how to flirt, resulting in peculiar responses.

Janelle Shane, a research scientist from Colorado, trained four versions of the GPT-3 artificial intelligence – DaVinci, Curie, Babbage, and Ada - to generate pick-up lines.

The way that neural networks (which are networks similar to the connections in the human brain) such as this ‘learn’ things is by matching patterns in speech and language.

This is how they create content that seems similar to that a normal human but without any understanding of the texts’ meaning.
