INTERESTING ENGINEERING - Loverse, a new Japanese AI-dating app, connects users with digital partners to address the country's loneliness crisis. With ~5K users, it aims to offer companionship, particularly to men in their 40s and 50s. Loverse seeks to help users reacclimate to dating and improve communication skills, making it a training ground for real relationships. While the app primarily serves men, it plans to expand to women and the LGBTQ community. Tokyo's government is also developing an AI-driven dating app to combat declining fertility rates.
