Overview

• Meta is rolling out a chatbot in the Matches tab that surfaces matches via natural-language prompts and can offer profile or dating advice in the US and Canada.
• Meet Cute delivers one surprise match each week using Facebook’s algorithm, with an opt-out option and potential to add other frequencies.
• Recommendations draw only from publicly available profile information and do not infer hidden attributes, according to a product manager.
• The assistant is built on Meta’s Llama models, per Business Insider’s interview with the Facebook Dating team.
• Meta says the tools are free and aimed at younger adults as major rivals like Match Group and Bumble expand AI features across their apps.
