San Francisco Hot List ranks most dateable tech professionals

Dating app entrepreneur Celeste Amadon has released the ‘San Francisco Hot List,’ a ranking of 19 tech professionals deemed the most ‘dateable’ in the city. The list, which includes founders and engineers primarily from the artificial intelligence sector, was compiled based on criteria such as attraction, ambition, accomplishment, reputation, and ‘aura.’

Notable individuals included on the list are Dara Ladjevardian, founder of the digital cloning platform Delphi; Google employee Ariana Pineda; Liquid Labs founder Enzo Coglitore; and Jaspar Carmichael-Jack, CEO of the AI firm Artisan.

The announcement has drawn significant attention on social media, garnering millions of views, but has also faced criticism. While some observers noted Amadon’s marketing effectiveness, others dismissed the list as ‘rage bait’ or criticized the content as ‘cringe.’
