The AI match making systems have expanded their categories to include hobbies and values which gives more results compared to the previous categories that only considered age and income.

Last year Japan recorded a number of 865,ooo birth rates which is said to be caused by low income and also loss of interest in romantic relationships with number of marriages falling by 200,000 between the year 2000 and 2019.
