Japan's population is Vanishing but can
artificial intelligence help save it
let's talk about it perhaps the robots
can save us from the robots matchmaking
events traditionally known as KATU
Andrew but they're combining that with
AI so the events are happening in
different local zones the government is
giving them money to subsidize it for
the konatsu company you mean a a this is
imperson dating this is imperson dating
but everybody's got to scan their face
fill out questionnaires and then AI is
going to match people up based on
compatibility so basically they're using
an they're kind of making just a lot of
people insert themselves into the
database so then the super Al dating
algorithm can match them up
compatibility wise kind of like what our
dating apps in America do but except
Juiced up right Juiced up and more in
person it's almost like a mixture of
ancient matchmaking and hinge but
government subsidized because Andrew
Japan has declared a state of National
Emergency over its hyper declining birth
rates anyway guys make sure you like
subscribe turn on your notifications
check out smile sauce smas sauce.com
sold out right now but still more coming
soon Andrew do you think people would
want this in America it's almost like
hinge but doing more facial scans doing
even deeper personality questions a
little bit more like this is what AI
said you will match with Kimo you guys
are perfect for each other all right so
I think that dating algorithms are
probably getting better over time
because they have more data and they
have more data sets to go off of I mean
you have uh hopefully they you they're
also using data from successful
marriages and and and people who got
together through the algorithm not just
meeting but I guess meeting is the first
thing right you just need to hit it off
when you meet so I think this is a good
idea I don't think anybody should be
forced to engage with people in person
if they don't want to but at least
knowing your options so let's say this
in America let's say all these people
are having trouble dating which a lot of
people say they are right you plug it
into this mass mass database like apple
like apple dating like if Apple iPhones
were to come out with a dating dat yes
it takes your data and you have to
approve it and non-racial bias aside
right because it's just compatibility
Wise by personality and maybe like
socioeconomic if you want to like you
know by by cuz you say you need a person
are racially biased in their dating
though no I know but I'm saying the
compatibility test is not racially
biased so this is interesting because if
you allow people to choose on the dating
apps they're very picky it's true if you
let them choose their height the amount
of money they want their partner to make
they basically look for their like high
school fantasy dream person yeah that's
what people most look to first and then
they have to learn that hey you know
what maybe none of this none of these
people from this pool going to work for
me so but now you just want to get as
many options as possible I guess that's
what would be helpful first comment says
if they cut down on racism and
xenophobia the population would also
increase just saying somebody said nah
they're overworked it's not anybody
business if they open their borders
because Japan is notoriously or famously
infamously I guess uh homogeneous right
so this was a lot of arguing because you
know you know a lot of people they moved
to Japan Andrew because a lot of people
love Japan they moved there 10 20 years
they go oh you know I never felt ja jaes
they never accepted me as one of them
and uh it just turned into like a lot of
arguing about like how Japan runs its
system yeah well I think that Japan is
trying to solve the issue right now
before uh allowing like a huge influx of
people because you mean Mass immigration
yeah but allowing Mass immigration is
that really going to solve the
population problem I guess like if the
immigrants reproduce then yes it will
create kind of like what we have in
America where a lot of immigrants come
Asian Hispanic black wherever you're
from uh Middle East right they come and
then they start families and then now we
the second or third generation becomes
part of the the next American generation
yeah yeah I'm guessing if Japan were to
let people immigrate it's going to be
from people who look relatively similar
possibly Mongolia Korea northern China
maybe that's what I'm guessing and
they're probably going to force people
to take at least a baseline Japanese
language test because they want people
to speak Japanese you have to be very
proficient in Japanese to pass their
fluency tests on their citizenship yeah
I think Japan should be a little more
open at least to immigrants who can
speak the language who took the time to
learn Japanese uh we would rather use AI
uh we have decided against your
recommendation um people were saying
please fix the work life balance
everybody was showing up photos of you
know drunk salary men and uh you know a
lot of women are not really allowed to
work there I mean it's like they are but
just not allowed to have high tier
positions and things like that uh
somebody said this is straight out of
Black Mirror then why does this feel
like some manga's coming into life and
then somebody said you have to ban anime
anime turns people into Shu inss and
incels and they're not out there in the
dating pool meeting and greeting each
other all right so here the truth behind
that comment is one I don't think you
can really blame it on anime that's kind
of stupid but you can't gaming in anime
not part of it in general the more
virtual your life is the less real life
there is so because you cannot be 100%
virtual and 100% in real person there's
no way well there's only 24 hours in a
day and apple Vision Pro is not there
yet yeah but even like so we're at this
point where David do you think Japan is
going to solve this issue before they
have to do a bunch of test tube babies
and start a whole generation in a lab I
don't know this might be too little too
late but they are trying I just don't
know about like these like speed dating
AI subsidies
I'm saying what if women were paid money
instead of finding love finding marriage
and then having a kid that way which is
the old school traditional human
way these women get paid and then
implanted with the embryo so you're
saying AI is going to stand for
artificial
insemination um somebody said the only
solution for Japanese to make babies is
to mix with Koreans and save both
countries declining populations and then
basically this was funny because if you
guys know about the history of those two
countries and the way those like uh
World Series of baseballs go between
those two it's real intense yo do you
think Korea and Japan are like Korea's
like you know like we never forget what
Japan did to us but uh we both kind of
have the same issue right now so maybe
we can help each other I'm actually
thinking honestly Mongolia is the most
uh one where like let's be honest I
think a lot of Mongolian girls are
pretty hot so then like uh
uh and there it's like there's no
political history unless you want to go
back to the genas days I don't know if
those Mullan girls are are going to uh
just just act like the Japanese girls
though uh stereotypically speaking right
right right uh other people said okanawa
is the one prefecture of Japan that has
much higher birth rates but a lot of
people were talking about how Okana are
actually racially a little bit more
Pacific Islander a little bit more
Chinese and the culture in okanawa is
just vastly different I always heard
that more in the cities though that the
birth rate things are a huge issue but
in the more rural suburb towns where
people have space to be have family even
in America it's like that if you live in
the BBS you got to have a family what is
being single in the BBS you're saying
like what's the point of living in the
BBS if you ain't raising a family and
keeping them safe and going to baseball
and soccer get I get it living in the
city you kind of want to be single or
you like there's so many things to do it
is true it is true but if you move out
to the rural towns what are you doing
not having a family that's a good Point
hey shout out to yeah like you said you
can't really just go oh what's okanawa
doing well okanawa is completely
different from Tokyo so different it's
almost unimaginable so of course that's
why they have high you kind of got to
leave the stimulation zones a little bit
um somebody said declining populations
only seem to be a problem for Pyramid
shaped government policies basically
talking about company uh countries that
are in hyper late stage capitalism Japan
happens to be one of them South Korea
happens to be one of them where
everybody wants the newest things the
hottest whips the hottest phones the
nicest gazes they want heres they want
Birkin bags etc etc um and somebody just
said yeah it's terrible because Japan is
such an advanced nation and then it's
declining all around the world but it's
declining because it's
Advanced like it's all tied together
yeah yeah yeah it is kind of it's kind
of tied together I mean ultimately what
what do you think Andrew government
subsidized AI speed dating in localities
the Japanese government is is paying for
it it seems low cost and people could do
it I think as long as you know because I
think there's a lot of hopelessness
about love and I'm not saying this is
going to solve it all because this is
still going about it the old school way
but any way you can help matchmake
people quicker is what you need to do
now again I'm talking about my whole
futuristic new bra Brave New World type
thing where you're paying women to get
pregnant with an embryo and then raising
that child and then that solves the
issue of having to get married and find
love but that doesn't really solve the
long-term issue of the birth rate I got
this i got this bro all right so
everybody goes into a database you get
matched up and you got to only if you go
with that person you're most compatible
with the government pays for the first
date Wow Let's Do It Let's Do It Japan
all right everybody we talked about that
for 10 minutes please let us know in the
comments down below what you think and
until next time we out
peace
