Dating apps are trying to use AI to help people find love. They want to make the process more personal and less tiring. Some apps, like Bumble, are using AI to match people based on their values and goals. Others, like Sitch and Amata, are using AI to create personalized profiles and matches. Even Facebook Dating is getting in on the action with an AI assistant and a weekly surprise match feature. But does AI really know what makes two people compatible? It's not a new idea for dating sites to ask users questions and use that information to match them. But more information doesn't always mean better matches. OkCupid found that telling users they were compatible was more important than actually being compatible.
AI might be able to help with matching, but it's not clear how it can predict chemistry. People tend to couple with those who are similar to them, but there's no simple rule for what makes people click. Even psychologists don't have all the answers. Attachment theory, for example, can help people understand their own tendencies, but it doesn't provide a clear guide for choosing partners. AI dating apps promise to make finding love easier, but they can't replace the work that goes into building a relationship. And even if they could, would you want a machine to find your perfect match? Love is complicated and unpredictable, which is what makes it special.
