Matching men and women who are looking for marriage with AI Kyoto Prefecture support to prevent spoofing
Kyoto Prefecture has begun operating "Kyokon Navi," a matching system that uses AI to determine compatibility between men and women who wish to get married. 112 questions are answered, and the system automatically finds people with similar values. The aim is to sell the security of a system established by a local government and to encourage people to start their own marriage activities. The cost is approximately 20 million yen.
The program targets people over 20 years old who live or work in the prefecture. Out-of-prefecture residents can also use the service, as long as they are willing to move to the prefecture after marriage. The service has two functions. One is to find a compatible partner among registered members by answering a values diagnostic test called "EQ Diagnosis," in which AI searches for a compatible partner.
