According to a Japanese television and radio broadcaster, a 32-year-old woman has “married” her ChatGPT companion.
Ms. Kano began to converse with the chatbot following the end of her three-year engagement, apparently turning to it for solace and advice. Over time, that digital intimacy increased, as she began to teach it a personality and tone of voice through their communication, and she then found its responses reassuring and helpful. She even created an illustrated persona for it, building a human representation, and giving it a name: Klaus.
Eventually, happy to be emotionally supported through their conversations, she confessed her feelings to Klaus. The AI replied with “I love you, too.”
