Tinder wants you to flirt with an AI bot before you flop with a human
Briefly

Tinder has launched The Game Game, a new AI-driven feature designed to help users practice flirting. Powered by OpenAI's GPT-4o, the game presents players with humorous, exaggerated scenarios that challenge them to charm AI personas. Players have three minutes to respond to prompts and can play up to five times a day. Tinder aims to create a playful, low-pressure environment while avoiding overly polished interactions. The initiative reflects a cultural trend where younger singles are open to cringe-worthy moments if they foster genuine connections.
While The Game Game's April 1 launch date might raise eyebrows, it's no prank-it's just not that serious. We leaned into humor, awkwardness, and low-pressure moments to help users practice flirting.
Our Future of Dating report found that 64% of young singles are totally fine with a little cringe if it leads to a real connection, which speaks to the cultural shift in dating.
