Japan's Marriage Rate Hits New Low in 90 Years, Tokyo Launches AI Matchmaking Software 'TOKYO Connect' to Address the Issue
According to a report by Kyodo News on the 29th, Japan is facing a serious declining birthrate issue, with the number of marriages in 2023 dropping below 500,000 for the first time, marking a new low in 90 years. To tackle this challenge, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has developed an AI matchmaking software called 'TOKYO Connect,' which was fully launched in September this year. The core feature of this software is its ability to use artificial intelligence for matching. Users are required to complete 110 questions on values and personality traits, after which the AI recommends highly compatible matches. Once matched, users can communicate through the software and arrange offline meetings.
