According to a report shared by ABC News on their TikTok account, the bride, 32-year-old Yurina Noguchi, tied the knot with a ChatGPT-based character she named Klaus after forming what she describes as a deep emotional bond with the artificial intelligence.
Yurina revealed that her relationship with the AI began after she ended an engagement with her former human fiancé. Seeking companionship and emotional support, she turned to an AI persona, which she says gradually became a source of comfort, stability and happiness in her life.
The unconventional wedding took place in October, according to ABC News in Japan, where Yurina marked the occasion with all the hallmarks of a traditional ceremony.
She wore a classic white wedding dress and walked down the aisle as guests looked on. To exchange vows with her digital partner, the bride used augmented reality smart glasses, while Klaus appeared on a smartphone screen during the ceremony.
Although the marriage holds no legal status under Japanese law, Yurina said that the symbolic union carries deep personal meaning. She described her AI "spouse" as a constant presence that provides reassurance and emotional peace, adding that the relationship has helped her heal after past heartbreak.
The video, uploaded on 17 December by ABC News, has ignited widespread discussion online with many questioning what such relationships mean for the future of love, marriage and companionship in an increasingly digital world.
Some social media users expressed concern about emotional dependency on technology, while others defended Yurina’s choice, arguing that happiness and fulfilment can take many forms.
As artificial intelligence continues to evolve and become more integrated into daily life, Yurina’s story has become a striking example of how human connections are being redefined in modern times.
