Ready to Date

Ready to Date

For the GPT Hackathon I was looking for an idea that could have a positive impact on many people. I've been curious about how to improve the dating scene for people who are looking for healthy long term relationships, and a recurring observation is that many people aren't even ready to date (despite that fact they think they are!)

I built ReadyToDate in two weeks in React Native for web, and leveraged the code from several other AI apps I'd written in 2023.

Ready to Date is a proof of concept, and I'd like to explore:

  • Can AI be used to assess if people, through a conversation, meet some acceptance criteria (being ready to date in this example)
  • Would "badges" issued by AI or a real person be a good way to vouch that a person is ready to date
  • How would giving the other person on a date the ability to provide feedback, affect the date? Would people be kinder, nicer, more of a gentleman or lady?

I will continue to develop the Ready to Date app and see if people find it useful. If you have any comments or feature requests, please let me know. Thank you!
