Data breakdown of dating experiment from @maxxingwjett

The creator presents a satirical social experiment where he claims to have direct messaged one million people. He uses a series of data visualization graphics to walk the viewer through the statistical results, including response rates and interest levels. He then pivots to explain his method for creating attractive profile pictures, which involves using an AI app to face-swap his face onto a model's photo, before concluding with his final 'success' numbers.

Transcript excerpt

I DM'd 1,000,000 midgets to see how many would actually wanna crack. Out of that 100,000, a little over 68% left me undelivered, around 31% good me, and only 9,842 actually responded. But that's perfectly fine with me because 1,247 wanted to crack. And before I get into how many I've cracked, I pulled these midgets by using the same method that I use on my dating apps where I just find an aesthetic picture of a model that they would already find attractive and just have AI swap out his space with mine so I can get some good looking photos for my profile. And I use Regen for this. I've cracked a whopping 33 so far, but we still have 1,214 best, so wish me luck.
