Comment from K.I. Betancur
If you've never seen the movie "Her" with Joaquin Phoenix, I urge you to watch it immediately.
Funny as it may seem, you may see a resemblance in your story and that movie.
Very well done! Caught my attention for sure.

I'll have to look it up. There was this silly movie on Netflix, I don't remember the name, where this guy ends up falling for his phone. Haha. Too much.
I appreciate the stop in and stars, KIB. I'm glad you liked this silly piece. Have yourself a great weekend.

You as well!

Hi, Ron, I did meet the real one, but so far...the
one on the computer just hasn't touched me yet..(I don't know what the ChatGPT is)...maybe by 2029 things may be different, and I can meet that perfect mate.
I enjoyed reading you story, and congratulations on the win...it was indeed a winner...Hugs!
Warmly,
Victoria

Hey, Victoria, hello. Thank you so much for the great review and giant sixer. chatGPT is this new AI out that apparently has all the answers. You can ask it anything and it will search the world's internet and give you an answer. Besides that, this thing can write as well. If you ask it to write a sonnet on giraffes playing guitars on the moon, within seconds it will give you exactly that. Kids won't have to do any work for school now. It can their essays in seconds. It can write stories of any length about anything you ask it to. I'm sure there'll be some on here that might ask for its guidance. I believe it's leading us down a dangerous path. That's what chatGPT is. I really appreciate the gracious stars, V. Have a wonderful weekend and thank you again.

You're always welcome, Ron...thanks for the info, sounds interesting, but I agree with you...we might just be heading down a dangerous path..too much progress can also be too much progress!!! Take Care...
Comment from w.j.debi
This is a creative response to the prompt and may not be too far into our future. So many people now prefer screen time interacting with AI instead of people.
You deserved to win the contest. This was the best written of the entries. Congratulations.

Thank you so much for the great review, Debi. Yes, it's scary, the direction we're heading in. I'm sure soon they'll be programmed to simulate love. I really appreciate the stars and kind comments, D. Thank you again.

Comment from Mary Vigasin
Interesting and creative approach in a well-written story. While it may sound so far-fetched, there may be some lonely soul out there who can not relate to another human being and finds their perfect mate in AI.
Very well done.
Best wishes,
Mary

Comment from Pantygynt
The success of the chat show depends upon its ratings, in other words how many viewers watch it the effect of being loved is well described in this little tale. Beware of smooth talkers like this though. They want your attention as their life's blood. You are just another drop of it.

Thank you for the great review, Jim. I wasn't actually talking about a chat show. There's this new artificial intelligence thing out now called ChatGPT that is remarkably intelligent. You can ask it anything and it'll search the internet all over the world and give you some kind of answer. Not only that. It can also write anything for you as well. Ask it to write a sonnet on guitar playing frogs and within seconds it will create a sonnet in perfect meter about frogs that play guitars. It's, in my opinion, something dangerous. Kids will start using it to write essays for school. People on here will start using it to create entries in contests. I'd hope it wouldn't come to that but I wouldn't put it past some of these folks. Lol. It's this new intelligence that seems to be getting smarter than man. We're creating our own demise with this thing. That's how I see it. But yeah, it's something new on our computers now rather than a chat show. That's where I was going with this silly piece. She falls in love with AI. Haha. Thank you for the great review and stars, friend. Have yourself a great day, J.

Comment from Julie Lau
Very well written, a great build-up. You set the scene of 2029 expertly. The surprise twist at the end was superb - it made me laugh out loud. And sadly, this is not an unbelievable situation at all. Oh, what are we all coming to? (sigh).

Thank you so much for the fantastic review and giant sixer, Julie. I doubt if we have floating cars in that amount of time. But I'm sure AI will have grown significantly by then. Fingers crossed that humans don't actually fall in love with it. lol I really appreciate the generous rating and I'm glad you had a chuckle at this silly piece. Have yourself a great day and thank you again.

Comment from Mrs. KT
No, Ron!
Say it ain't so!
How impersonal.
How cold.
How wonderfully imaginative and creative!
Your story flows well and held my attention throughout!
One tiny nit:
The one I've devote (devoted) my life to and evolve my whole existence around is simply my best friend and my beloved...Chat GPT.
Best wishes!

Comment from karenina
LOL. Oh man, this is the way it's going isn't it? Soon people will be "'swiping left or right" on their AI partners! I read an article recently about a man who divorced his wife in order to be faithful to his ChatGPT "love interest" -- Scary stuff!
This is wicked clever.

Yikes, someone actually left his wife for it? Thank you for the excellent review, Karenina. I just had to come up with something different for this contest, rather than the usual. I really appreciate the gracious stars. Hopefully some will never have to resort to this. lol I hope you have yourself a wonderful day.

Thanks! Artificial Intelligence is sort of an oxymoron, no?
:)
-
Lol. Yep, that's right up there with the Peacekeeper missile. Ha
-
AI is frightening. I don't understand normal humans...now I have to contend with "virtual" opiners? Yikes!
-
Yeah, plus I can pretty well assure the competition in contests on here's going to get a little stiffer with such helpfulness at hand. Lol. I'd hope no one would stoop this low but I wouldn't put it past some.
-
I predict a contest in the future for best sonnet written by an AI program!
:)
-
Lol. I wouldn't doubt it.
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Oh dear, I heard a few people have fallen in love with this Bot and I wonder what the future holds for us humans!
Just one small edit here . . .
. . . more lavish (than) the last.
A fun read, love Dolly x
