MODERATORS
That's a generous assumption that there will be a waitlist.
I think you underestimate how popular AI dating has become lately.
Listen, some of us are trying to stay sane
I honestly worry about this as much as I worry about the impact of generative AI on education and critical thinking.
Social media already constantly screws with our heads and tries to manipulate our emotions to drive engagement, adding AI dating to the mix is going to fuck some people up real bad in terms of mental health, emotional stability, and social skills.
