💬 Quoted: “There is a world where your [AI] dating concierge could go and date for you… Then you don’t have to talk to 600 people.”

  • In yet another example of Black Mirror brought to life, Bumble founder and executive chair Whitney Wolfe Herd recently revealed the dating app is considering implementing a feature where users could create AI dating avatars (or concierges) that could act as stand-ins for themselves when reaching out to prospective partners online.

Survey data indicates roughly one-third of all US men ages 18-34 use ChatGPT for relationship advice, while the same is true for 14% of women in the same age bracket (the other 86% just rely on their detective-like friends in the group chat).

The data indicates 35% of Americans aged 18-24 had no income through wages or a salary in 2022, a percentage that has ticked up steadily from 22% in 1990.
