In a sea amidst a plethora of dating apps, we have to wonder, how many people actually use Facebook Dating. Well, if you are using Facebook Dating or if you plan to check out a new dating app, you might be interested to learn that Meta will be using AI technology with its Facebook Dating app.
Facebook Dating gets an AI assistant
Meta has announced that it is introducing two new AI-powered tools to Facebook Dating. This includes dating assistant and Meet Cute. Starting with dating assistant, this is a chat assistant that apparently helps you find “better matches.”
According to Meta, “It can help you find better matches based on your interests and preferences, giving you refined search and custom match recommendations. The assistant allows users to go beyond traditional traits like height or education, allowing you to enter unique prompts tailored to what you’re looking for.”
This almost sounds like filters, something that other dating apps already offer. However, it can go a bit further. It can help you “level up your profile” to help you come across more interesting or attractive. It can even propose dating ideas if you’re sick of more traditional dates.
Meet Cute
The next new feature of Facebook Dating is called Meet Cute. Meta says this “takes the indecision” out of online dating by “automatically matching” users with a surprise match. The company says that this is based on its personalized matching algorithm.
Meta explains the feature by saying, “Meet Cute is ideal for anyone who’s tired of swiping and is looking for a fresh, easy way to expand their typical pool of dating candidates. To start, Meet Cute matches will be made weekly and we’re exploring adding the option of other frequencies. You can opt-out of the feature at any time.”
