Singapore's technology agency GovTech has begun piloting FirstDate, a dating platform for single public servants aged 21 to 35 that uses the Nobel-winning Gale-Shapley algorithm to offer each user one match at a time. The trial comes as the city-state's fertility rate fell to a record-low 0.87 in 2025, and officials warn the citizen population could begin shrinking by the early 2040s, leaving fewer workers to support the elderly. Reactions have ranged from curiosity to scorn, with some questioning the cost and data privacy, while GovTech says no decision has been made on expanding it beyond government employees.
