So many of my girlfriends are single... this is not how I would phrase the issue. By and large, men are looking to get laid, women are looking to get serious. If a woman only wants to get laid, sure, the world is her oyster as long as she's young and conventionally attractive. If a man wants to get serious... he's gotta differentiate himself against the hordes of guys out there who just wanna get laid (many of whom present themselves as serious).
I've been doing this online dating thing since... well, I met my first romantic partner on a BBS. It seems to me that what men and women want has significantly diverged over time. So when you conclude,
> Women need AI to show them who they would best get along with. Men need AI to get women to talk to them.
I gotta say, nah. We don't "need" those things. Technology is not bringing us closer; I think that it is significantly responsible for this divergence. What we need to do, I believe, is return to meatspace.
- Workaccount2 3y agoThe problem women have is that they get a tsunami of likes and it is up to them to figure out who is serious and who is just casting a wide net. When you have 2000 guys in your inbox, it's hopeless to try an find the right guy (who also isn't the "right guy" for every other woman).
- klyrs 3y agoWay to miss my point and tell me about my problems... I'm tellin ya, meatspace also has thousands of dudes, their number isn't the problem. It's the underlying premise, that we should rely on technology for matchmaking and socialization in general. If we go with your approach, prompt engineers will float to the surface. Which probably sounds great to so many dudes here, but it still ain't what most women want.
