Ghosting” is one of the issues that have accelerated with the increased passage of time. With the availability of incredible gadgets such as smartphones, people are more connected than ever before.
But as it happens, we move farther away from each other, since many people prefer to stay on their own. As much as people stay away from each other, the ice gets thicker and harder to break.
The ghosting issue has a massive negative impact on the whole concept of dating. Dating requires you to talk to the other person for the person to be able to interpret the mind-set and values efficiently. This way, you can decide whether they’re a good match for you or not.
Technology once again comes to save the day, however. There is a new online platform named “EHarmony” available now. According to an article from CNET there is a new online dating platform.
- WHAT IS EHARMONY?
EHarmony is a new platform that envisions introducing a new feature in times to come;
The said feature is an algorithm that will read the user’s profile and will suggest a common topic, that is shared by both people. This feature will come in handy if people stop talking to each other.
Nevertheless, the users will still have an option to decide whether they want to talk to the other person or not. This chat bot can prove to be one of the most effective methods. This chat bot may solve the mentioned issue many users still face on online dating platforms altogether.
- THE WORTHY TOOLS FOR ONLINE DATING PLATFORMS
On the other hand, there are services like Bumble, Coffee meets Bagel, and Ok Cupid has also stepped up their games. These are a few of the most renowned names in the niche of online dating, and they have brought something new as well. These services have been recently allowing their users an ability to share particular interests in replies to the prompts of the respective services.
These prompts with the intent of making them work as an integrated impetus. This integrated impetus is for people to be able to have a conversation without getting uncomfortable. These tools are highly worthy in the domain of online dating platforms.
Many people can relate that talking to a stranger can prove to be pretty daunting, let alone talking to them with an intent to asking them out. These tools can make it a lot easier for you to approach a total stranger as it strikes up all the common traits and topics that both people share. Talk about technology being an icebreaker!
- FEARS OF ONLINE DATING
But, there are some catches to it as well. In May of 2018, Google gave a picture of how far gone technology is these days. Google made their AI assistant, Google assistant dial up a call on behalf of the owner, which sounded nearly the same as the human person. When you connect this with the picture of online dating, this can prove to be a static disadvantage and a potential threat as well!
Considering the rapid progress of technology in this domain, the AI’s of the related online platforms might even start dealing up and start conversations with each other on the behalf of the users. These AI assistants may further end up setting the dates for their human owners. The thought of this being possible is no doubt trembling.
- CHOOSING THE PARTNER IS NOW AN EASY TASK
As it happens, some users already have their fair share of troubles with online dating. Online dating platforms show a lot of options for being a potential match.
Well, nobody’s perfect, not even the technology itself. The AI’s may end up making matches contrary to each other and may prove to be a mismatch. Further, with the Artificial Intelligence features doing all of this on their own may lead to giving users the feeling of dehumanisation.
However, technology is not that far gone either, and the fact that just by reading your potential interest and choices, the algorithm may be able to bring forth a good match for you is just straight out comforting. Such features may also give the users much-needed comfort, as they will not have to riffle through various options, ending up choosing someone that’s not right for them.
Having that said, we understand and firmly believe in the belief that everyone is entitled to having their own opinions, and everyone’s thoughts differ. To some people, this may be a concerning method. However, on the other hand, some people may find this comforting.
CONCLUSION
As far as our opinion goes, with this new player in the market, technology has improved things by a lot. Technology will be able to play its role as an icebreaker between the people. Have you recently liked someone a lot but had to let go of them because you didn’t know what to talk to them about? Well, with this feature, EHarmony has sought an end to this issue!
