Facebook is launching a dating feature
> they do have some of the best AI, so dating might even stop existing as a thing in a few years
Could you expound on your reasoning behind this?

good AI will find the best match first -> people switch profiles to "married" -> average dating activity drops by a large %

I think it is a little ambitious to think that dating will disappear because FB announced a feature :)

"Dating" is predominantly an american phenomenon, but facebook has a ton of different cultures in it. There are cultures that frown upon this "trial-and-error" human algorithm.
