4 天前Paul, before chatGPT became popular, we spent hours watching YouTube videos and reading articles about different breeds. Matching a breed to your lifestyle prevents rehoming and possibly creating an unfavorable environment for your pet. While your prompt didn't select the breed we have in the first round, when I prompted it to offer more choices, ours popped up. ??

6 天前I love that this isn't limited to dogs, my mind immediately went there as a dog lover! Now I'm curious what pet I’d be matched with if I tried this prompt. I also appreciate that you included both adoption and breeder recommendations. As an 'Adopt, don’t shop' advocate, I always suggest checking breed-specific rescues first. You may not find many puppies, but there are so many adult dogs in need of homes. This is a great prompt for anyone thinking about getting a pet!

6 天前Great post, Paul! One additional consideration for families thinking about pet adoption is the importance of researching the specific needs and behaviors of different breeds or species. Understanding these nuances can help ensure a harmonious match with the family's lifestyle. Additionally, considering the long-term commitment and potential changes in family dynamics over time can help in making a more informed decision. Your insights on leveraging AI for this process are spot on and can truly streamline finding the perfect pet. Looking forward to more of your expert advice!
