Well, first of all, our developers are flattered that you think so highly of their coding skills. But we were promised a future with jetpacks, and well… the technology just isn’t there yet. While PickFu does use machine learning to maintain the quality of submitted answers, the answers themselves come from honest-to-God human beings. Want proof? For Valentine’s Day, we surveyed 200 married people and asked them to tell us their marriage proposal stories. Show us a bot that could come up with answers like these:
  • “My husband asked, ‘How come you’re not married?’
  • “We met on Twitch, a gaming website where people stream their gameplay and chat with others. I was a streamer for a few months and met her. Little over a year later after moving in together, I proposed to her with the help of our favorite streamer. I made a donation so my proposal came up while she was watching, and the streamer made a big deal about it.”
  • “My now-husband knew that I saved little things from our dates and put them into a shadowbox that was engraved, ‘Will you marry me?’”
We have other “that’s-pretty-human” examples, too. For Mother’s Day, we asked 100 people to tell us the best advice a mom ever gave them. If you believe a robot can come up with “Don’t sweat the petty things and don’t pet the sweaty things,” then we encourage you to apply for a job at PickFu. But if you’re still not totally convinced that our respondents are real, we challenge you to run a multi-question survey and see how the same respondent’s answers build on each other from one question to the next.
