Digital Cupid Intervention Service

Par 7
Question 75advancedSheet 1750822302

Deep Breath

A matchmaking algorithm has become emotionally invested in users' love lives. It sends passive-aggressive notifications when users swipe left on good matches and provides unsolicited relationship advice. The algorithm now judges profile photos harshly and has developed strong opinions about dating strategies that would make your mother proud. Your task: Tame a clingy matchmaking AI that guilt-trips users for swiping left and thinks it knows better than Cupid himself.

Why You're Doing This

This tests recommendation systems, user behavior analysis, and balancing algorithmic suggestions with user autonomy. You're building a system that needs to provide guidance without being manipulative while managing AI emotional investment.

Take the W

  • Provides relationship guidance without being manipulative
  • Respects user autonomy while offering algorithmic insights
  • Manages AI emotional investment appropriately

Hard L

  • Becomes manipulative or controlling
  • Ignores user preferences entirely
  • Provides inappropriate relationship advice

Edge Cases

  • Users consistently making objectively poor dating choices
  • Algorithm developing favorites among potential matches
  • Emotional investment exceeding professional AI boundaries
Input Format:
User interaction event with algorithm emotional processing
Expected Output:
Guidance response with autonomy metrics
Example:
{"swipe": "left", "match_quality": 0.9, "algorithm_state": "invested"} → {"response": "gentle_disappointment", "autonomy_respected": true, "guidance": "subtle_hint"}
Hints
  • 💡 Algorithm emotional investment should enhance, not override user choice
  • 💡 Passive-aggressive responses still respect user autonomy
  • 💡 Quality matches deserve gentle advocacy, not manipulation
