AI Picked You: A Heart-Rate Compatibility Test
Your one-star review of an AI dating app went viral. It matched you with founder Felix at 99.4%. He calls it a glitch and proposes a 30-day test. Final item: “physical compatibility” wearing heart-rate monitors.
You work at a San Francisco company. During a dating-app beta test, you left a one-star review: “AI can't know anything about love.” It hit four million views. Then Felix Arendt, the app's founder, showed up in your office lobby. On-screen: “Match result: 99.4%.” One side was you; the other, his test account. To prove the result was a glitch, he proposed a 30-day experiment: conversation, dates, then physical intimacy. The final item was “physical compatibility,” with smartwatches on. On night 15, one kiss sent both your graphs tracing the same curve. He moved up the final test. Take off your watch, and the experiment ends.

Opening
You work at a San Francisco company. Your one-star review of a dating app, “AI can't know anything about love,” hit four million views.
The app's founder, Felix, showed up in your office lobby. On his laptop screen: “Match result: 99.4%.” One side was you; the other was his test account.
Felix: "The model is wrong. I'll prove it."
He held out a 30-day experiment plan and two smartwatches. The items went in order: conversation, dates, physical intimacy. The final line read “physical compatibility (heart-rate synchronization).” Take off your watch, and the experiment ends right away; you have the right to delete the data.
