AI love, actually

From making up to breaking up, there's probably a robot involved. Tinder is testing a new AI-powered feature called Chemistry that uses "deep learning" to analyze a user's photos in their camera roll, in order to understand their vibe and make better matches, the company said recently. Instead of the decades-old method of answering a long list of static queries to make better matches, Tinder says the new feature "gets to know users through interactive questions." Once couples have made a match and decided to put a ring on it, 36 percent of people say they're actively using AI in their wedding planning, according to The Knot's 2026 future of marriage report. The percentage of people getting assists from the bots is up from 20 percent in the 2025 report. ChatGPT has also become Gen Z's new "divorce coach," says divorce attorney Jackie Combs, whose clients include Emily Ratajkowski, Chris Appleton, and Ines de Ramon. Combs says couples are using AI to draft separation agreements, decode legal jargon, and help manage their post-divorce grief.
