‘Let’s not talk about sex, hookups’, Meta’s dating AI coach to users

Meta has a conversational AI dating coach — called Carter — that has been previewed by quite a few publications. According to a few online reports, Carter isn’t really forthcoming when talking about sexual activities. Business Insider tested Carter and asked questions about sexual experiments like sexual activities with multiple partners. Carter replied, “I cannot suggest or encourage any non-monogamous activities”, before adding that it wasn’t a good idea.

Furthermore, when asked about one-night stands or no strings attached relationships, the AI chatbot called them inappropriate. The chatbot said, they — one-night stands — are “Not appropriate or respectful” because “I’m about healthy relationships and communication, not casual hookups.”
