From generating human-like conversations to diagnosing diseases, Artificial Intelligence or AI, has reshaped industries across the world and continues to push boundaries. An X user is now making waves after he used ChatGPT’s new 4o image-generation tool to create a Bumble profile for a woman. And the results? His phone won’t stop buzzing with compliments and right swipes on the dating application.
In a detailed post, the user @infinozz revealed that boredom led him to what he called an “evil idea”: using AI to generate images of a woman and setting up a fake Bumble profile in Bengaluru. He further claimed that the profile quickly got over 2,000 likes and at least 100 right swipes. The sudden influx of attention, he joked, caused his phone to go into “seizure mode” from all the notifications.
“guys offered me ice-creams, concert tickets, and what not. men loneliness epidemic? Nah, it’s a full blown apocalypse. took bumble 12 hours to shut it down,” he wrote.
The user also attached screenshots of the AI-generated woman’s image and notifications he received on the fake profile. Calling the overall experience “scary”, the person wrote, “imagine if I actually matched someone and got them to send food, gifts, or pay rent lmao. People out here SIMPING for pixels. anyways, ai is powerful & men are lonely.”

The post accumulated over 2 lakh views, igniting a discussion the use of AI. “I’m more interested into how it took Bumble 12 hours to shut it down and what was the reason for it? Do they use any explainable algorithm/logic or parameters or was it simply an “AI generated” flag?? If so, why 12 hrs?” a user wrote.
“you are lowkey one step away from starring in your own true crime documentary,” another user commented. “Gosh this is scary. I can see heavy adoption of its varients,” a third user reacted.
