Can an algorithm really predict who would be your best dating match? Can love be coded and people categorized accurately? And is it ethical? To answer these questions and uncover how dating apps impact our relationships, I had the pleasure to talk with Dr Liesel Sharabi, Associate Professor at Arizona State University and director of the Relationships and Technology Lab. Dr Sharabi studies how communication technologies are used to initiate, maintain, and dissolve interpersonal relationships. She is especially interested in technology’s role in modern romance, the role of algorithms and AI in facilitating relationships, and relationships in augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR).
