I've trained my neural network to play Tinder
The video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ohs6sgmVNYI This video is a prof of concept. I always wanted to see if I could make my Neural Network play tinder for me. So I gather some pictures, created a fake tinder app (so I don't expose real people) and began the training. For this experiment I'm using scrcpy to control my cellphone and pyautogui alongside my neural network. The script is very simple: Get the image, run it trough a neural network, move the mouse to the output (yes or no) and click. There's a lot of hard coded things in my code, but as I said earlier,…

In plain words
A proof-of-concept project that uses a neural network to automate swiping decisions on a dating app interface. The developer trained the model on gathered images and created a fake Tinder app to test the concept without exposing real users. The system captures screen images, processes them through the neural network, and automatically clicks yes or no based on the output, using phone control software and mouse automation. Built as an experimental demonstration rather than production code.

Before the pandemic, my tiny startup was doing quite well selling Edge AI systems, based on our own lightweight AI inference engine, with object detection and face recognition for smart city and smart retail & food service applications. When the real world shut down, there was suddenly nothing to monitor on streets and in restaurants, so I set out to try and evolve our real time face recognition system into a video codec for high quality face-to-face online interactions, as I was not satisfied with the quality of Zoom and friends. I got it to work, and the first release for IOS was just…

I spent the past week implementing a 1 Layer Neural Net and training it on MNIST within the visual scripting language provided by scratch.mit.edu. It was tedious, but ultimately not too difficult. The code runs incredibly slowly, so much so that 64 samples of MNIST takes 5+ hours to train on my machine. There were a lot of little mini challenges that were fun to overcome (implementing softmax was very tricky). If you're interested, I encourage you to try and improve on it! More details in the linked blog post.
