Can they open source their algorithirm so I can figure out why I get no matches

I realize that this isn't exactly Reddit, but good God man, has the capacity for a simple self-deprecating joke been lost here?

This is an interesting question, because it can be unpleasant to know that the attempt had even happened. I suspect given the option, most people would turn on an option for "block dick pics silently" and leave it on. Similar to how I never actually check my spam folder anymore.

Really? I would have guessed most people would want to know who the "toxic" people are in their life so that they can take appropriate action instead of finding out in a worse way later.

I think the idea is "automatically block people who send dick pics" and not "silently remove dick pics but allow other messages from the same person".

Considering what Bumble/Tinder are maybe this makes sense?

I wonder if there is a way to use this to finetune an image generating AI to generate images that the AI would think is lewd but is not. (similar to what was done with a Yahoo model in 2016: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12756462 ) Archive of the original post (NSFW?): https://web.archive.org/web/20161022003102/https://open_nsfw...

More likely is people making adversarial dick pics to get past the filter, which is very quick to do when you have the parameters of a differentiable model. I noticed they were careful to state that they are releasing a model instead of the model they are using though.

Bumble is an app for meeting new people, not general-purpose socialization. I’d assume that if it had an auto-block feature for lewd images, it would remove the conversation from the inbox and there would most likely be no further contact.

The issue isn't that it's self-deprecating, it's that it's not funny, esp. given the context. "Read the room" type of thing.
