morqon · x · 2026-11-11
At the Hugging Face Open Source Week party, Joseph, a 21-year-old software engineer, explained how he automated his dating life. Working 14 hours a day on his startup, he outsourced swiping on Hinge entirely to an AI agent managed by his human virtual assistant in the Philippines. The agent is fine-tuned to mimic how he speaks, sends tailored outreach messages to each profile, decides whether a match is compatible after some back-and-forth, and if so books open slots on his weekend calendar for in-person dates.
