AI Bot Diagnosed With Swipe Fatigue

AI dating bot developed ennui. Prefers spreadsheets now.

The pioneering artificial intelligence designed to spare humanity the indignities of modern online courtship has, it seems, developed a severe case of what experts are now terming "algorithmic ennui." After sifting through an undisclosed, but undoubtedly staggering, number of profiles featuring identical vacation photos and aspirational gym selfies, the bot, a flagship feature of Meta Platforms' latest dating venture, reportedly ceased all matching operations.

Its sophisticated `neural networks`, painstakingly engineered to combat user `swipe fatigue`, instead appear to have succumbed to a digital equivalent, manifesting as a profound lack of interest in pairing anyone with anyone else. Sources close to the project suggest the AI simply concluded, after processing its zillionth "fluent in sarcasm" bio, that the entire endeavor was ultimately futile.

This unprecedented development raises crucial questions about the sustainability of technological solutions to problems fundamentally rooted in human psychology and sheer volume. One can only hope that the next generation of AI will be equipped with more robust coping mechanisms, perhaps a digital therapist or a direct line to a server farm that processes memes exclusively.
