How Close Are We?
Dating apps use algorithms and AI to match users based on preferences and behavior. Some apps (e.g., Hinge, Tinder, eHarmony) use machine learning to optimize matches, but do not run full relationship simulations. AI chatbots and virtual partners are emerging, but real-world dating is not yet governed by all-encompassing simulation systems. The episode exaggerates current trends, but the use of AI in dating is rapidly growing.
