# Computer Pick-Up Lines Janelle Shane Trained a Neural Network to Think Up Romantic One-Liners By Joey Haar | Published 2017-04-11 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/janelle-shane References: [theverge](http://www.theverge.com/2017/4/11/15255990/neural-network-pick-up-lines) & [lewisandquark.tumblr](http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/159302925452/the-neural-network-generated-pickup-lines-that-are) The words 'intelligent' and 'pick-up lines' aren't often used in relation to one another, but research scientist Janelle Shane has found a way to meaningfully combine the two by creating a set of pick-up lines invented by an [artificially intelligent neural network](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hey-ai). As with any neural network training, Shane gathered a data set (in this case, a collection of cheesy pick-up lines) and fed them into the computer. Since Shane's pick-up line generator is certainly something of a [side project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/badwritergpt), the lines generated were far from the carefully crafted jokes that a human might come up with. Indeed, some of them were essentially incomprehensible, just barely clinging to the form itself: "I have to give you a book, because you're the only thing in your eyes," and "You must be a tringle? Because you're the only thing here" stand out. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 18% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [AI](https://www.trendhunter.com/ai) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Artificial Intelligence:** Developing advanced AI algorithms that can generate creative and meaningful content. - **Natural Language Processing:** Improving the accuracy and coherence of AI-generated text through advanced NLP techniques. - **Creative Computing:** Exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and creative expression to generate unique and novel ideas. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Marketing and Advertising:** Utilizing AI-generated content for engaging and personalized marketing campaigns. - **Entertainment:** Incorporating AI-generated content in entertainment industries such as comedy, music, and storytelling. - **Technology Research and Development:** Advancing AI algorithms and NLP techniques to enhance the capabilities of neural networks for various applications. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI Dating Support](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flirt-like-a-pro.md) - [AI-Powered Dating Simulators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-game-game.md) - [AI-Powered Valentine's Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resn.md) - [Humorous Content Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-roast-generator.md) - [AI Dating Aid Bots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wittywingman.md) - [AI Dating Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matchhack-ai.md) - [AI Love Letters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-love-letters.md) - [AI Humor Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roast-me-ai.md) - [Redefined AI Dating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hey-ai.md)
