Japanese dating app operator Net Marketing Co. said Friday personal data of 1.71 million users, including names and face photos, was likely leaked due to unauthorized access to its server. The operator of the Omiai dating app said customer information provided to the company between January 2018 and last month might have been stolen, as its probe found its data server was hacked at least several times last month. The customer information also included addresses and dates of birth from identification, including passports, drivers' licenses and health insurance cards, provided to the company. Net Marketing said it has not confirmed any use of the potentially leaked data by a third party. As of last September, the company had more than 5 million subscribers, and over 50 million pairs were matched, according to the operator's website.

The White House is pushing a new reason to swipe right: vaccination badges and "super swipes" for people who've gotten their coronavirus shots. The Biden administration said Friday it's teaming up with dating apps to showcase the benefits of getting a shot. Apps like Hinge, Tinder, Match and Bumble are offering special incentives to people who roll up their sleeves, including badges showing vaccination status and free access to premium content. BLK and Chispa will boost profiles of those who are vaccinated, to make them more visible to potential matches. And OKCupid will even let users filter out potential partners based on whether they've gotten a vaccine.

Deep learning recommendation systems must provide high quality, personalized content under strict tail-latency targets and high system loads. This paper presents RecPipe, a system to jointly optimize recommendation quality and inference performance. Central to RecPipe is decomposing recommendation models into multi-stage pipelines to maintain quality while reducing compute complexity and exposing distinct parallelism opportunities. RecPipe implements an inference scheduler to map multi-stage recommendation engines onto commodity, heterogeneous platforms (e.g., CPUs, GPUs).While the hardware-aware scheduling improves ranking efficiency, the commodity platforms suffer from many limitations requiring specialized hardware. Thus, we design RecPipeAccel (RPAccel), a custom accelerator that jointly optimizes quality, tail-latency, and system throughput. RPAc-cel is designed specifically to exploit the distinct design space opened via RecPipe. In particular, RPAccel processes queries in sub-batches to pipeline recommendation stages, implements dual static and dynamic embedding caches, a set of top-k filtering units, and a reconfigurable systolic array. Com-pared to prior-art and at iso-quality, we demonstrate that RPAccel improves latency and throughput by 3x and 6x.

Chatbots, virtual assistants, and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems are key components of successful customer service strategies. We had the pleasure of hearing from three AWS Contact Center Intelligence (AWS CCI) Partners as part of our Best Practices in Customer Service Automation webinar, who provided valuable insights and tips for building automated, customer-service solutions. Customers expect great customer service. At the same time, enterprises struggle with the costs and resources necessary to provide high-quality, highly available, live-agent solutions. Automated solutions, like chatbots and IVR, enable enterprises to provide quality support, 24/7, while reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction.

A sample page on the OkCupid app is held for a photograph showing the "I'm vaccinated" checkmark. A sample page on the OkCupid app is held for a photograph showing the "I'm vaccinated" checkmark. What about getting caught in the rain? Well, if fear of the coronavirus is what's keeping you from finding someone who also enjoys both, the White House is trying to help. The nation's largest dating apps are hoping to make it easier for vaccinated singles to find one another, the White House announced Friday, part of the push to meet the Biden administration's goal of getting 70% of adults at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine by July 4. The range of new features will allow users to be able to filter potential matches by their vaccination status, and also gain free access to premium features such as "boosts," "super likes" and "super swipes."

A bunch of companies have been giving away freebies to people who have received a COVID-19 vaccine, and now dating apps are offering perks.

The apps are giving away premium perks as well, like boosts and super swipes, which users usually need to buy on a pay-per-use basis.

Tinder, OKCupid, Hinge and other dating apps owned by Match Group are adding new features to users' profiles to encourage them to get a coronavirus vaccine. The Friday announcement is an effort to assist the White House in reaching its goal of getting 70 percent of US adults at least one vaccine jab by July 4. Those who say they have received a COVID-19 vaccination can add a badge to their profile that says'I'm Vaccinated' and will have access to premium content such as boost and super swipes. The apps are also adding filters so people can see who has been vaccinated as well as promotions and links to vaccine.gov to help individuals find vaccine locations.

Apple's new iPhone update finally gives people the option to unlock their phone while wearing a mask, without having to enter their passcode. But the feature will only work for those people who have an Apple Watch, since it uses the wearable to ensure that the iPhone has not been stolen. The new feature is introduced in iOS 14.5, the latest software update for iPhone and iPad. It was released alongside updates for the rest of Apple's platforms, including the operating systems for its Watch and Macs.
