In this episode: AI bots are coming to dating apps to help users flirt and craft messages Scientists reveal how voice pitch changes based on social status Unreleased Tupac demo recordings are up for sale—but with a catch The details: Dating apps are rolling out AI wingmen to help users craft messages, pick the best profile photos, and even coach them on dating strategies. While some see this as a helpful tool, others worry it could remove the last bit of authenticity from online dating. Experts warn that those who rely too much on AI-generated conversations may struggle when it comes to actual face-to-face interactions. Meanwhile, researchers have discovered that the way we speak shifts depending on who we’re talking to. Studies show that people tend to use a higher pitch when speaking to someone they perceive as higher status, while dominant individuals lower their voices. So if you notice someone talking to you in their Minnie Mouse voice, they might just think you're important. And finally, rare early Tupac demo recordings from the early '90s are now up for sale for $250,000. The catch? The buyer won’t be able to release them publicly without permission from Tupac’s estate. While this might be a dream for collectors, it’s unclear if the music will ever see the light of day.Support the show: https://the-jubal-show.beehiiv.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
