Bumble, the popular dating app, could soon come up with new artificial intelligence (AI) features. The company CEO revealed that the company’s plan is to integrate AI features at a deeper level. This will assist the users with the profile creation process and starting conversations with new matches. The company discussed these plans during Goldman Sachs’ annual technology conference. The app also detailed several new features. Notably, Bumble added an AI feature to detect spam, scams, and fake profiles earlier this year.

TechCrunch reports that Bumble CEO Lidiane Jones announced the integration of AI features at Goldman Sachs’ annual technology conference. Jones had previously teased the features during an investor call. This is where the financials in the second quarter of the year were also discussed, according to the publication.

Jones mentioned an AI-assisted photo picker tool which will recommend the best selfies to be added to the profile. The AI is said to be able to access the user’s camera folder in the gallery app. It will suggest images from there. Notably, Tinder released a similar feature known as Photo Selector earlier this year.

The Bumble CEO also suggested in the conference that the company is building new features. These will assist the user in the profile creation process and start conversations with new matches, as per the report. “We want the bar for profile creation to continue to be high, but we want to reduce the friction that exists for users,” TechCrunch cited Jones as saying. Bumble previously released an AI-powered feature for its friendship-focused platform, Bumble for Friends. The ice-breaking feature uses AI to suggest the first message users can send each other.
