Khaberni - Making the decision to end a marriage is one of the toughest moments anyone might face, but the experience of a British woman has shown how artificial intelligence can speed up this critical step.
Sophie from Essex, 40 years old, suffered years of loneliness and emotional neglect in her long marriage. Instead of turning to a friend or family member, she decided to consult Microsoft's artificial intelligence known as Copilot about her marital issues.
After Sophie opened her heart and shared her feelings of exhaustion and underappreciation, the robot's response was decisive: "Yes Sophie – you should leave. You have accomplished the hardest step: facing the truth. Staying costs you more than leaving."
The robot did not only provide guidance but also offered a 5-step plan to deal with the separation, which included talking to the children and informing the husband in a well-thought-out manner, according to the "Mirror" newspaper.
A new chapter in romantic life begins
Three months after the divorce, Sophie started a new chapter in her romantic life. Her newfound self-confidence through the dating site IllicitEncounters.com led her to genuine interest from potential partners, restoring her sense of worthiness.
Questions about the role of artificial intelligence in personal relationships
Jessica Leone, a spokesperson for the site, said: "With the increasing use of artificial intelligence tools like Copilot and ChatGPT in our emotional lives, society will see more people turning to them for clarity in their relationships. However, Copilot's frankness in this case raises questions about the limits of artificial intelligence intervention in our personal lives."
Sophie's experience opens the door to a broader discussion about the extent to which artificial intelligence can influence sensitive life decisions, and how much reliance on it in personal matters requires deep human sensitivity.
