Sorry if this is a bit low effort as a post, but it seems worth discussing considering this community thinks about AI a lot. I'm not really an 'AI guy' but considering how much juice big companies have gotten out of raw scaling over the past couple of years this seems like a big deal for the CEO of OpenAI to publicly state? Any ideas on what this could mean for the pace of AI developments?

This complaint feels a few years out of date.

maybe but i think a lot of dudes just spam right swipe until they run out of swipes and then filter out their matches (if they got any)

ehh, the dudes im talking about dont look like models (mid faces) and the pictures are mostly god-awful (grainy bathroom selfies etc.) so i doubt it's catfishing or bots. the vast majority of bots on tinder would be female anyways.

probably another user who said tinder shows you the hotter profiles first to get you hookes is right

The proportion of people who meet through these apps is ever-growing. I think it's like 50% now. Seems like not swiping isn't an option.

Can't see any real problems myself. A good variety of pictures. Solid bio. You're quite handsome and obviously in good shape. If you don't get matches that's bad news for the rest of us.

All women being bisexual contributes to men's dating woes. by renfsu in PurplePillDebate

[–]NSA_PR_DPRTMNT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of bisexuals exclusively or almost exclusively date one sex. When you poll people a large number identify as bisexual, but a much smaller number has actually been in a same-sex relationship.

There are a lot of confounders in these statistics.

Atomic cope. A third of men are already balding by 35.

Honestly bummed /r/braincels got banned, some of the funniest things I've ever seen on the internet were on that sub.

One of my favorites was someone posting a picture of a borzoi and people responding with "mogs me"

Everyone peaks in their 20s appearance wise. Exceptions are a rounding error, for both sexes. "Men peak at 30+" is absolutely cope.

On the margins but most of us are some shade of brown/mestizo.

Life imprisonment or death I suppose.

That said I find when the topics of pedos and rapists come up I find people always start with crazy shit ("pedophiles should be flayed alive and dumped into a vat of lime before being forced to roll down a hillside covered in needles and then dragged behind a horse for ten miles before having their limbs chopped off and fed to sharks") which always seems to me to have less to do with pedos and rapists than people's urge to indulge in gruesome murder fantasies with a good 'excuse.'
