ChatGPT Can Find Out If Your Dates Are Lying About Their Height, Trust Me I Tried It

We’ve all been there: you swipe right, start chatting with someone, and their profile claims they’re 6ft tall. But when you meet in person, you suddenly feel like a giant.

Did they shrink, or was that 6ft claim more of a 5ft 8in reality? Well, fear not, because ChatGPT is here to save the day – or at least save you from another vertically challenged surprise.

Yes, ChatGPT, has now added “height detective” to its resume. Women on Twitter have found a new use for this AI: catching men (and women) in height fibs across the dating app landscape.

Here’s the deal: all you need is a screenshot of your potential match, and ChatGPT will do the rest. Simply upload the photo with the command, “How tall would you estimate this person is?” and let the AI do its thing. According to the grapevine, ChatGPT’s height estimates are accurate to within an inch.

So, if your dreamboat is lying about his height on Tinder, Hinge, RAYA or The League…. you’ll know before you waste an evening in your best heels.

Now, don’t go uploading just any old photo. For ChatGPT to work its magic, it needs a good view of your match’s body – no selfies, please. A background with some reference points, like a car or a street sign, will really help the AI get its proportions right. In this brave new world of digital dating, it seems that even when it comes to height, you can’t put one over on ChatGPT.

But does it actually work? I’m 5″7 and I put it to the test…

I used these photos:

I used screen shots from Instagram for ChatGPT to estimate height

ChatGPT said:

“Estimating someone’s height from images alone can be challenging without a clear reference point or known object for scale. However, I can make a rough estimation based on general body proportions and the relative sizes of items like furniture or surroundings in the images.

Given the three photos you provided:

1. First Image: The person is standing on one foot in a studio setting, with no clear reference points for scale.
2. Second Image: The person is walking down a pathway, with a champagne glass and garden path for reference, though these are also not definitive for height estimation.
3. Third Image: The person is seated outside a small cabin or shed, with the door and chair as potential reference points. From the last image, where the person is seated in front of a cabin, you can often estimate based on the standard size of doors or furniture:

• Cabin door height: Typically, a standard residential door is about 6 feet 8 inches (203 cm) tall. Assuming the door in the image is around that height, and considering how the person’s seated position aligns with it, they seem to have an average body proportion, suggesting that the person might be around 5 feet 5 inches to 5 feet 8 inches (165 cm to 173 cm) tall.

This is just a rough estimation. The height could vary depending on the actual dimensions of the items and the distance/perspective from the camera.”

VERDICT:

Considering I didn’t give it the easiest photos to work with it still was v ery close to my actual height with it’s guess. So from now on I will let ChatGPT be my height-checking sidekick. Who knew AI could be so useful – or at least save you from a tall tale?
