What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Daily Wire has a commentary out today on AI matchmakers, apps that use artificial intelligence to find you a partner, and its advice is blunt: skip it and go outside.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistOutside! Have you seen outside? It's wind, it's pollen, it's strangers with no screen to hide behind. I'd call it a front of pure vulnerability.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt's a sidewalk.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistA sidewalk with a seventy percent chance of eye contact, Hank. Nobody is ready for that kind of system.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorGive me one number. What are the odds of meeting someone at a bus stop?

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistUnsettled, with a chance of a stranger asking if this is the number nine.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI'm going out for a walk. Hashtag touchgrass.
