The Online Dating Industry needs INNOVATIONS, not more bells and whistles.

Lack Of Innovation & Decadence can summarize the Online Dating Industry.
C-Level executives are more worried about their golf scores than their company’s long term strategy and innovations.
C-level executives are cooking barbecues under the water (selling smoke) and not paying attention to latest research from Academics which could be beneficial for the Online Dating Industry.

The Online Dating Industry does not need a 10% improvement, a 50% improvement or a 100% improvement. It does need "a 100 times better improvement"

The 3 milestone discoveries of the 2001 - 2010 decade for Theories of Romantic Relationships Development are:

I) Several studies showing contraceptive pills users make different mate choices, on average, compared to non-users.
"Only short-term but not long-term partner preferences tend to vary with the menstrual cycle"

II) People often report partner preferences that are not compatible with their choices in real life. (Behavioural recommender systems or other system that learns your preferences are useless)

III) What is important in attracting people to one another may not be important in making couples happy.

The key to long-lasting romance; COMPATIBILITY is: STRICT PERSONALITY SIMILARITY and not "meet other people with similar interests".
High precision in matching algorithms is precisely the key to open the door and leave the infancy of compatibility testing.
Without offering the NORMATIVE 16PF5 (or similar test measuring exactly the 16 personality factors) for serious dating, it will be impossible to innovate and revolutionize the Online Dating Industry.

All other proposals are NOISE and perform as placebo.

Online Dating sites have very big databases, in the range of 20,000,000 (twenty million) profiles, so the Big Five model or the HEXACO model are not enough for predictive purposes. That is why I suggest the 16PF5 test instead and another method to calculate similarity.

At the paper  "Perceptions of Ideal and Former Partners' Personality and Similarity" 
The authors had written
".... mismatches in personality are a frequently mentioned cause for relationship break-up. If former partners indeed have dissimilar personalities, our findings underline how difficult it is for many people to select a mate with a similar personality, or, alternatively, how little value individuals put on finding a similar partner in terms of personality.
The present study's results, as well as the results found in previous studies (e.g., Eastwick & Finkel, 2008), may be used to educate people, especially singles, about what really matters in long-term relationships, for instance, similarity in personality, instead of complementarity."
  


What comes after the Social Networking wave?
The Next Big Investment Opportunity on the Internet will be .... Personalization!
Personality Based Recommender Systems and Strict Personality Based Compatibility Matching Engines for serious Online Dating with the normative 16PF5 personality test.

Viola.AI .. but Match failed with Amazon Alexa


http://www.onlinepersonalswatch.com/news/2018/01/what-is-violaai.html

Nobody can tell them Viola.AI seems to be a big overpromise! They mistake AI with a silly recommender system.
A fraud, a hoax, that will not outperform Watson IBM
that uses obsolete Big Five normative test (same as eHarmony, EliteSingles and eSync)..

"Viola.AI creates a much more secure, interactive place to meet, talk, but also begin to participate in the non-cyber world. For example, a matched couple will be able to use cryptocurrency to pay for gifts or the wedding dress. But also couples counseling and other expert advice. Users sign up to the platform. Their identity is verified through facial identification, including via their social media profile. They can then use the system cryptocurrency to pay for membership services and other community-linked goods and opportunities. The entire ecosystem of dating, in other words, is found on one platform."

My bet: He is copycatting WATSON IBM, in same manner as Dr. Galen Buckwalter did (Soulmates.ai), but Buckwalter used the HEXACO model of personality (BIG FIVE, or OCEAN is obsolete now)

eHarmony and other dating sites are collaborating with big AI players like IBM Watson ???

Please do not call AI to any silly recommender system that learns your preference.
DO NOT mistake "artificial intelligence" with a behavioural recommender system.
