The online dating industry has hit a rough patch as persistent inflation and a lack of innovative features prompted consumers to move away from dating apps such as Tinder and Bumble. In response, Match and Bumble have been refining their applications and introducing artificial intelligence features such as AI-enabled discovery to make it easier for users to improve their dating outcomes.Match, which also owns dating apps Hinge and OkCupid, has introduced features such as “double date” and Game Game, which was a voice-based experience that allowed users to practice flirting with an AI date, to better cater to Gen-Z audiences.Match Group on Thursday forecasted second-quarter revenue above Wall Street estimates and said it would reduce 13% of its workforce to cut costs, as the Tinder parent plows ahead with its business revamp plan. Do you think that AI is replacing humans indirectly or directly ?
