About the lecture:
Would you let AI choose your next partner?
This lecture examines how AI algorithms attempt to understand humans, focusing on the complexities of attraction beyond mere preferences.
It explores matchmaking through dating apps as a lens to question what it means to truly understand a person. Using live examples, and audience participation, the session investigates how large language models interpret profiles and suggest matches, highlighting their limitations in decoding human connection.
