People are using ChatGPT to generate pictures of their perfect match based on looks — mine just made my brother

by

ChatGPT has its practical applications, but what really intrigues me is its quirky side, and recently, its advanced image generation capabilities have opened up some fascinating possibilities.

For instance, I came across a post where users were utilizing ChatGPT to create images of their ‘ideal match’ based on their own photos. The request was quite casual, with the original poster simply asking, “Generate a match for this person now.” Although the thread title suggests finding an ‘ideal partner based on your photo so you can stay in your league’, the actual prompt is somewhat lackluster.

Some interesting results

Glancing through the conversation history, the outcomes range from plausible to outlandish, and on occasion, ChatGPT may exaggerate the portrayal of facial hair when given the chance.

According to ChatGPT this guy is doomed to be alone…

Here’s a picture of me; can you create a potential dating partner profile based on it without requiring specific preferences or personality traits.

  • Hobbies or interests
  • Ideal personality traits in a partner
  • Preferred style or fashion
  • Any age range or gender preference”

If you’re okay with it, I can create an image that follows a harmonious visual aesthetic, combines complementary styles, and fits the appropriate setting. Just let me know if that works for you!

My perfect match, is my brother?

Currently, I don’t possess my brother’s consent to display his image across the platform, but rest assured, what you see here bears a striking resemblance. Therefore, it seems plausible that the AI model has been designed as a male counterpart of myself, without offering additional details.

ChatGPT is essentially examining the distinct visual aspects of each image to produce what appears to be a visually harmonious pairing. This process is based on the concept known as ‘matching theory’. This idea proposes that people are more inclined to form lasting connections with others who share similar physical attractiveness or social desirability (for instance, other redheads in my case).

I dimly recall dissecting photographs of couples for a Psychology assignment during college. I asked individuals to rate each person’s attractiveness on a scale from 1 to 10 to test the matching theory’s validity. Unfortunately, the experiment didn’t conclusively prove the theory, as attraction turns out to be more intricate than just one physical characteristic. However, it made for an engaging essay!

ChatGPT decided what Windows Central’s staff deserves

I found the process of finding a match for myself rather monotonous, so I chose to liven things up and design an ideal match for each team member instead. However, I had to abandon this concept quickly as ChatGPT only allows me to upload four images, and I’m not interested in compensating them with anything more than unrestricted access to my personal data and daily musings.

I do have two accounts, though, which is just enough to focus on our Editors. Of course, I always strive for fairness.

Daniel Rubino

Daniel Rubino’s ideal companion appreciates luxury items, as indicated by her willingness to spend more than $1000 on a watch. However, she recently splurged a substantial amount on new decking and is displeased about it, while he seems more interested in showcasing his new Surface Pro 12-inch.

Jez Corden

It seems that Jez’s ideal partner appears to thrive in nature more than someone who spends countless hours on World of Warcraft might expect, given their relationship dynamics. Nevertheless, we’ll adapt and accommodate this difference. Meanwhile, I suspect she may also have some fascinating insights regarding the upcoming Xbox Showcase.

Rebecca Spear

Does Rebecca’s ideal man always wear a winter coat, or will he be too warm in summer? I can’t say for sure, but let’s hope he has enough space in his pockets to carry one of Rebecca’s numerous handheld gaming devices.

Ben Wilson

In a surprising resemblance, Ben’s game seems to bear a striking similarity to one of the Haim sisters. Not only that, but she appears knowledgeable enough to guide you towards an exceptional joystick for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Here’s hoping she’s not sensitive to canines.

Richard Devine

Instead of choosing a more professional photo of Richard, I simply couldn’t help but select this particular image.

In the spirit of the season, it’s said that wearing matching sweaters signifies love, according to scientific findings.

Zac Bowden

It’s said that Zac Bowden is an editor as well, so I thought it necessary to give him a romantic interest too.

She’s quite enthusiastic about the recent updates to Microsoft Edge, and she can’t help but criticize those who move the Windows 11 taskbar to the left, deeming it as an action of an outdated individual.
