Ask HN: Would you allow an AI to go on most of your dates for you?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45305062Dating is expensive, time-consuming, and often… exhausting. What if there were a way to test compatibility before even leaving your couch?
Here’s the idea:
* Your personal AI chatbot learns your personality from your social media writing.
* Instead of going on every date in real life, your chatbot "goes on dates" with other users' chatbots.
* Chats that go well in these AI simulations are then escalated to actual humans, so you only meet people with real potential.
* Basically, AI-simulated conversations filter out the bad dates so you can focus on the good ones — saving time, money, and awkward conversations.
