Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement that online dating algorithms are largely successful at paring potential mates down to one soul mate is not supported by research. Most studies and expert panels conclude that while online dating algorithms can help narrow down potential matches based on preferences and compatibility factors, they are not capable of identifying a single "soul mate" for individuals. The complexity of human relationships and attraction goes beyond what these algorithms can definitively predict.
