So here's what I'm thinking.

I would argue that main bottleneck for people having an abundance of good potential partners is usually not their character or personality. Which sure can be improved, but it's not the main obstacle.

I believe the main issue is the bad matchmaking process. Meeting through friends, or chatting someone at the bar/club/restaurant, or at ones hobbies is just inefficient. How many new potential partners is the average person gonna meet in a month? 10? 50? 100? And most people are even too afraid to even start a conversation with a stranger.

We live in cities of millions... how many opportunities are being missed for amazing relationships?

So here is the question: How hard is it for an AI to be trained to match people? Is there anything happening in this area currently? And if not what are the main obstacles? If we managed to train it to respond with a certain amount of common sense (GPT4), even if it's 50% as accurate as a human at matchmaking, given the profiles of potential candidates, it would be huge massively more successful than Tinder.

NOTE: I'm assuming that the AI would be provided a wealth of information about the candidates: there could be a long questionnaire to be filled, an interview with the AI itself, access to socials, pictures and videos, etc.

UPDATE: While writing this I'm starting to realise the immense processing power required for something like this, and that we're not exactly there yet, but a simpler version could be made. Something where you just answer different questions about what you're looking for, what you want to do in your life, etc. Sure it would depend on trust, but incorrect profiles could be flagged and deleted.

And still, I think in a few years the AI will be there technology wise, to be able to conduct and interview and gauge the personality and characteristics of a person.

So again, what do you guys think? How hard is it for an AI to be trained to match people? Is there anything happening in this area currently? And if not what are the main obstacles?
