Tbh, maybe someone should try making an open-source dating app.
You know what, being a dev myself that's something I'll try as a hobby project. We'll see how it work out.
If you need machine learning to match people, send me a message lol
Depends on how it is used. But I don't think it should be used for the matching process itself though. Maybe to help match interest (tags) between each other, like giving a connection score between two of them, but other than that, I see no other privacy respecting way to use that.
Moreover, on which data would we train on? I don't think there is any anonymized dating app dataset around.
