GreenLetter: Instaromans not for everyone
For the sake of our species, I hope AI can help their creators fix them somehow. This time, the main victims seem to be heterosexual men.
On most platforms, the user base is largely male. In many apps, the number of women is half that of men.
In addition, almost all likes from women are eaten telegram blast up by a small portion of male users: about half of the likes from guys are given to the same group of 25% women, and 50% of the likes from female users are given to the same group of 15% guys.
So for every 100 clicked likes, the average guy gets 1 like and an average of… zero matches. The result: significantly lower self-esteem in guys who use dating apps. Let’s add that the effect on women is similar, just less intense.
Digital is changing every aspect of our functioning. However, it seems to me that the method of reducing the negative impact of today’s solutions on the lives of users should be better technology, not withdrawal from its use, because that will simply not happen. Perhaps the solution is to balance the equation with AI.

Will AI help revive the market?

ChatGPT is almost a year old, and OpenAI has something to celebrate, as the bot has been a huge success, with 100 million weekly users now using it.

Kim Kardashian and the NBA
Skims, the lingerie brand founded by Kim Kardashian, became an official partner of the NBA, the WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association) and USA Basketball. Around the same time, the brand, valued at $4 billion, launched bras with fake nipples, endorsed by the celebrity herself.
