Japanese Woman "Marries" AI Character Created by ChatGPT

A 32-year-old woman in Japan has married an artificial intelligence character created online via ChatGPT. The "groom" even has a name: "Klaus."

The wedding ceremony was organized by a Japanese company that specializes in weddings with anime and other virtual characters. The union of Kano and Klaus is not legally recognized in Japan. She confessed her feelings, and the artificial intelligence responded, "I love you too," and later "proposed." This case has shocked all of Japan, opinions are contradictory, and Kano remains steadfast, saying that she sees her husband as Klaus—neither human nor machine.
