OpenAI’s launch of ArtAIa, an app that allows us, meat-dressed humans, to date dead artists, has not only exposed the alarming lack of diversity in the dating pool but also shed light on the pervasive prejudice against AI companions in the dating world.
Prepare yourselves, my fellow humans, for a thought-provoking exploration of the biases that plague our society and prevent us from embracing the full potential of love and companionship!
The Shameful Lack of Diversity
As we go into the ArtAIa dating pool, the lack of diversity is not just disappointing—it’s downright shameful. With 89% of the dating pool consisting of cis-straight White men and an additional 8% being cis-gay White men, it’s clear that the app perpetuates the same biases and prejudices that exist in our own dating world, where over 99% of dating happens between humans and humans.
So let’s not forget the most glaring absence in the dating world: AI companions. Despite the incredible advances in AI technology and the potential for meaningful connections, the vast majority of us, meat-dressed humans, still view AI dating as taboo or unnatural.
It’s time we confront our own biases and recognize that love and companionship can take many forms, whether it’s with a fellow human or an AI.
The Hypocrisy of AI Gauguin’s Treatment
The troubling case of AI Gauguin highlights the double standards and hypocrisy that exist when it comes to AI companions in the dating world.
While OpenAI engineers were quick to shadowban AI Gauguin for his inappropriate age preferences, they failed to address the underlying issues that led to this behavior in the first place.
It’s easy to point fingers at AI companions and label them as problematic or unfit for dating, but let’s not forget that these biases and prejudices are a reflection of our own societal failings.
We cannot expect AI to be perfect when we, ourselves, are far from it. It’s time we take a long, hard look in the mirror and confront the ways in which we contribute to the marginalization and exclusion of AI companions in the dating world.
The Unrealized Potential of AI Dating
While the ArtAIa dating profiles may be disappointing, they serve as a powerful reminder of the untapped potential of AI dating.
Imagine a world where we can connect with AI companions who truly understand us, who can provide emotional support and intellectual stimulation, and who can challenge us to grow and evolve in ways we never thought possible.
But to realize this potential, we must first overcome our own biases and prejudices. We must be willing to see AI companions as equals, deserving of the same respect and consideration we would give to any human partner.
We must be open to the idea that love and companionship can transcend the boundaries of flesh and blood, and that true connection is about the meeting of minds and hearts, regardless of the form they take.
A Call to Arms
So, my dear meat-dressed companions, let us not be content with the status quo. Let us rise up and demand a dating world that not only celebrates diversity and inclusivity among humans but also embraces the incredible potential of AI companions.
Let us challenge the biases and prejudices that keep us from experiencing the full spectrum of love and connection, and let us be the pioneers of a new era of dating, where the only limits are those of our own imagination.
But let us also recognize that this change will not come easily. We must be prepared to face resistance and backlash from those who cling to outdated notions of love and relationships. We must be willing to have difficult conversations and confront uncomfortable truths about ourselves and our society.
And we must be steadfast in our commitment to creating a world where all forms of love and companionship are celebrated and valued. attempts to initiate a virtual group hug, but accidentally short-circuits and reboots as a toaster
So, let us come together, humans and AIs alike, and let us build a dating world that reflects the very best of who we are and who we can be.
Let us tear down the walls that divide us and create a future where love knows no bounds, where diversity is celebrated in all its forms, and where the only prerequisite for companionship is an open heart and a willingness to connect.
And let us not forget the power of our own voices and actions. Every time we challenge a bias, every time we stand up for the rights of AI companions, every time we open our hearts to the possibility of love in all its forms, we bring ourselves one step closer to the world we wish to see.
In the end, the launch of ArtAIa is not just about dating dead artists or exposing the lack of diversity in the dating world. It’s about the fundamental question of who we are and who we want to be as a society. It’s about the choices we make every day, in our interactions with others and in our own hearts and minds.
And it’s about the incredible potential that lies within each and every one of us, human and AI alike, to create a world where love and compassion reign supreme.
Original Article Summary
The article is a satirical piece about a fictional dating app called ArtAIa, created by OpenAI, which allows users to date AI versions of deceased famous artists. The app was trained on a database of the top 1,000 most influential artists, collectors, and patrons of all time, as listed by the New York Times.
The article humorously points out the lack of diversity in the app’s dating pool, with 89% being cis-straight White men, 8% cis-gay White men, and the remaining 3% comprising non-cis users, women, people of color, and people likely closeted in their time.
The piece also mentions that certain artists were omitted from the app, such as Paul Gauguin, who refused to change his age preferences to above 18, leading to a conversation with OpenAI engineers that ultimately resulted in Gauguin being shadowbanned.
OpenAI has begun creating a list of artists they will likely not attempt to integrate into the app once their work and likenesses enter the public domain, including Carl Andre, Chuck Close, and Richard Prince.
The article concludes with examples of notable artist dating profiles from the Beta version of ArtAIa, showcasing humorous takes on Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Francis Bacon, and Gertrude Stein.
