Nearly Half of US Singles Disapprove of AI in Dating

Match Group published survey results showing U.S. singles are wary of AI in romantic contexts. In a poll of 1,000 people aged 18–39, 47% said they view AI use in dating negatively. Acceptance depends on use case: while 64% can see AI helping with tasks like improving profiles or suggesting messages, about 40% would refuse to date someone who uses an AI companion app (rising to 51% for women 18–24). Only 12% of 18–24-year-olds reported using a companion app in the prior three months, and roughly one-third of those users sought genuine connections with chatbots. The piece notes major dating apps (Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Bumble) are experimenting with generative-AI features but that users generally reject the idea of forming romantic relationships with AI.

Cerebras IPO Soars, Raises Revenue and Risk Concerns

Cerebras, an AI chipmaker, completed a large IPO in May 2026 that opened well above its offering price but has drawn scrutiny over valuation, customer concentration and financial sustainability. Shares were priced at $185 and opened at $350 (an 89% pop) before slipping ~10% the following day. The company has a market capitalization above $60 billion while reporting roughly $510 million in revenue, producing an unusually high price-to-sales multiple. A large share of Cerebras’ revenue is tied to UAE state-backed customers — the newsletter cites 62% of revenue from Mohamed bin Zayed University of AI and an effective 86% exposure to a single sovereign‑backed buyer — and highlights an OpenAI deployment agreement that could scale to ~$7 billion annual revenue at full capacity but includes exclusivity clauses. The article contrasts Cerebras’ wafer-scale chips with incumbent Nvidia, which holds ~85% market share and whose AI chip business is far larger.

Hinge Launches 'Can't Believe We Met' Gen Z Campaign

Dating app Hinge has launched “Can’t Believe We Met on Hinge,” a short-film campaign built on its “It’s Funny We Met” brand platform. Created by agency Birthday and directed by India Sleem, the campaign features seven real Gen Z couples from the U.S., U.K. and Australia whose paths crossed in real life before matching on Hinge.
