Can Artificial Intelligence Be a Matchmaker?

Carly Malatskey, known as the “dating app guru” at Floodgate, founded Joey AI, an AI-based matchmaking company which differs from traditional dating apps.
Joey AI connects users through a phone call with an AI voice assistant that asks targeted questions before ending the call, with potential future text match connections.
Dating app fatigue is impacting major companies’ financial results, leading to a focus on AI as a solution for improving the dating app experience.
Tinder, Grindr, and Match Group are implementing AI to address declining user engagement and to improve match quality and safety.
AI aims to facilitate more genuine connections by reducing noise and facilitating direct interactions over curated profiles.
Joey AI’s approach emphasizes voice AI to enhance user authenticity, moving away from curated profile information.
Platforms like Grindr are using AI to cater to diverse user intentions beyond just dating, including making friends or finding travel companions.
A significant majority of Gen Z American daters are already using AI in dating, indicating a trend towards integrating AI into dating app technologies.
