Chatphishing

In online dating, when one user pretends to be an interesting person by using chatgpt to converse, then shows up to the date and has nothing valuable to say.

"I thought we had a great, stimulating conversation online, but when we met in person, I found out I'd actually been talking to an AI. I think I might be a victim of Chatphishing."
