PETA, together with the artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT, encourages people to understand why adoption is a responsible decision when considering bringing a dog into their home. Adopting a pet from a shelter is the best option for both the animal and its future family, as the pet will already have been checked by a vet and provided with basic medical care, and will be a better match than a dog from a breeder or pet store.
Not only will adoption save lives, providing an animal with a safe and loving home, but there is also the cost-saving factor as well. Vaccinations, microchips, and spay/neuter surgery already completed with a dog from a shelter may save hundreds to thousands of dollars in vet bills, making adopting a more cost-effective choice than buying.
Unfortunately, buying a dog from a breeder or pet store is not only prohibitively expensive, it is also contributing to the animal overpopulation crisis and supporting unethical breeding practices.
PETA is an international animal rights organization that campaigns against factory farming, fur farming, animal testing, and the use of animals in entertainment. Every year, PETA campaigns to prevent animal abuse and continues to spread information to people all over the world, in an effort to inform people and make a change in the situation of animals. PETA also works to promote appropriate treatment of animals and to end animal cruelty and suffering, taking many forms of direct action to ensure these goals are achieved.
ChatGPT is a neural network-based artificial intelligence (AI) system, able to generate novel pieces of text based on natural language understanding and human conversation history. ChatGPT, in collaboration with PETA, wants to educate people on the moral obligations when it comes to adopting dogs and discourages people from buying a dog from irresponsible breeders. ChatGPT is pushing for the adoption of all animals, to free up space and resources to help other animals in need and promote ethical breeding practices. With AI, we are able to get more accurate information than ever before and encourage people to make a difference when it comes to animal rights.
