Abstract: We explore the consequences of incomplete information in the stable marriage problem. When information capacity of the participants is increased, more favorable games are created and the quality of the matches are also better. The simple model serves as a metaphor for a world with ever more computing power that leads to more positive inter-personal interactions and of higher quality.
