Automatic messaging would be especially neat. Bots can take the time-wasting initial conversations all to themselves, after exchanging with each other more or less predefined templates they’d employ a crude ML-enhanced algorithm to estimate whether their respective human masters would like to take it from there or let it slip. Less awkwardness, less uncertainty, more efficiency.
