DEPARTMENT OF INTERPERSONAL AFFAIRS ANNOUNCES GROUNDBREAKING AUTOMATED RELATIONSHIP TRACKING SYSTEM

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The newly established Department of Interpersonal Affairs (DIA) is proud to announce the implementation of the National Relationship Intelligence System (NRIS), a revolutionary program that automatically detects, classifies, and monitors all interpersonal relationships through advanced mobile device tracking and artificial intelligence.

Starting January 1, 2025, all Americans’ romantic relationships will be automatically assigned a unique 16-digit Relationship Identification Number (RIN) based on comprehensive analysis of their smartphone location data, messaging patterns, heart rate variations, and social media interactions. This innovative system eliminates the need for manual relationship registration by leveraging the power of ubiquitous surveillance.

“Love shouldn’t be complicated – it should be automatically detected, classified, and monitored,” said Richard Bureaucraft, Secretary of Interpersonal Affairs. “With the new RIN system, we’re bringing the efficiency of social media algorithms to your love life.”

Key Features of the NRIS:

  • Real-time relationship status updates based on proximity patterns and text message sentiment analysis
  • Automatic detection of potential romantic connections through cross-referenced location data
  • AI-powered measurement of relationship health through voice stress analysis during phone calls
  • Predictive breakup alerts based on changes in communication frequency and emoji usage
  • Automated classification of “just friends” vs. “more than friends” using machine learning
  • Blockchain verification of relationship timelines
  • Neural network detection of potential infidelity through anomalous location patterns

The DIA has established a new Advanced Relationship Monitoring Center (ARMC) where AI systems continuously process data from millions of smartphones to maintain an up-to-date national relationship database.

“Gone are the days of relationship uncertainty,” explained Deputy Secretary Jane Redtape. “Our quantum computing systems can now determine your relationship status with 99.9% accuracy before you even know you’re in one.”

The system includes specialized algorithms for modern relationship scenarios:

  • Friends with Benefits Detection Protocol (Pattern FWB-101)
  • Situationship Classification Algorithm (Pattern SIT-202)
  • Ghost Prediction System (Pattern GPP-404)
  • Dating App Success Probability Calculator (Pattern DAP-303)

The department emphasizes that all relationship statuses are now automatically updated in real-time. The “talking phase” is detected within 72 hours of the first Instagram DM, and “exclusive” status is automatically confirmed through analysis of shared location patterns and changes in social media behavior.

Citizens need not take any action, as all relationship data is continuously collected through their existing digital footprint. Those attempting to evade relationship monitoring by using flip phones or meeting in person without mobile devices may be flagged for suspicious behavior.

This is also satire to show how absurd it is to create newer and newer ids to track citizens like the new Apaar id announced by the Government of India.

Dear Google, Please Don’t Shut Down Aardvark

You might seen this post from Google announcing their intention to close out a few of their experimental products. One of the products that will be closed is Aardvark. Aardvark is a social question and answer tool where you can ask a question and it will find someone to answer your question for you.

 

You might wonder why Aardvark is so important considering that there are so many Q&A sites like Quora, Yahoo answers etc. The reason is this – Aardvark is the only one that could find someone who knew the answer to the question (however esoteric) that you throw at it. It also pings the people to answer your questions so it has a dynamic and personal nature to the answers. If you have further questions based on the answer, Aardvark will get those answered too (by the person who originally answered your question).

 

Since people like me got so much value from Aardvark, we always chose to answer random questions that Aardvark brought for us. Even if I did not know the answer to a certain question, I would research it so that it could help the person who asked that question. I wanted to make sure that I had a positive karma balance with Aardvark (more questions answered than asked). I am sure there were many others like me since the quality of answers that I got was so high.

 

In our move to France, Aardvark was a very critical tool for our integration into the country. It was like having a close friend who knew all the answers to your questions about living in France except that this friend was available 24X7.

 

Here are some of the ways in which it has helped us:

 

1. Once we had to send a very urgent letter on a weekend and everyone told us that we have to wait until Monday. I asked Aardvark, and voila! I came to know that a La Poste was available near the Louvre in Paris. We were able to mail our letter on a Sunday!

 

2. We consume a lot of Tofu since we are vegetarian. When we came to France, we could not find fresh tofu in the grocery stores. We did find the dry variety which isn’t as good. Many people told us that we should go all the way to Bio stores in Paris to get fresh tofu. I turned to Aardvark, and found that there were three stores within 5 kms of where we live that carried fresh Tofu!

 

3. We wanted to find an alternative to the local French banks that charge a bomb just to give you a current account. I got referred to Fortuneo, ING Direct etc thanks to my anonymous friends on Aardvark.

 

4. We are learning French using Rosetta Stone. Since there are no explanations in Rosetta, I always turned to Aardvark with my questions about French. At any time of the day or night, I got answers from my trusty Aardvark that helped speed up our learning.

 

With Google sunsetting Aardvark, I feel like I am losing a close friend. I think Aardvark addressed a gap in the market and the gap still exists. So please dear Google, please do not shut down Aardvark. Heck, give it to me and I will keep it going!
