The rise of artificial intelligence in online dating has sparked deep mistrust among singles, with many fearing that AI could make it harder than ever to form genuine relationships. The fear of AI’s increasing role in dating apps – from chatbots generating replies to fine-tuned bios – has left many feeling more disconnected than ever.
This fear is rooted in the belief that AI could be used to create hyper-realistic yet deceptive “deepfake” profiles, leading to a rise in catfishing and other forms of online deception.
A study conducted by dating app FindingTheOne warns that as dating fatigue continues to affect singletons, AI-driven interactions could push even more people away from dating apps altogether.
