ChatGPT assures her that her husband is cheating, and she asks for a divorce after 12 years of marriage.

In Greece, a woman consulted ChatGPT and immediately filed for divorce. The reason? The artificial intelligence assured her that her husband was cheating on her after finding evidence in a… coffee cup.

It is well known that the reasons for divorce are diverse and varied, with some recurring more than others. For her part, this woman living in Greece decided to separate from her partner for a surprising reason.

She filed for divorce after 12 years of marriage after seeking advice from ChatGPT, according to information from the Greek public broadcaster ERT, reported by Le Parisien.

Result: the artificial intelligence chatbot revealed that her husband was having an extramarital affair.

But how could such a situation have arisen? Believing that her husband was cheating on her, the woman shared two photos of coffee cup bottoms, hers and her spouse’s, to allow the app to analyse them.

Verdict: The AI told her that the father of her two children had fallen for a woman whose first name begins with the letter “E”.

An impressionable woman 

That’s not all! ChatGPT also stated that the man in question was going to leave his wife to move in with his mistress.

As crazy as it may seem, the artificial intelligence’s “analysis” prompted the Greek woman to file for divorce. She then ordered her husband to leave the marital home. It was only a few days later that the man heard about the initiation of divorce proceedings.

In an interview with ANT1, the man in question made some surprising revelations about his wife. He said that the couple had almost divorced in the past because of revelations made by a fortune teller.

“It took me a year to convince her that none of it was true,” he explained.

For his part, his lawyer insists that his “client is presumed innocent until proven guilty. The absurdity of artificial intelligence does not stand up in court.” “I can’t believe that someone who is raising children would do something that artificial intelligence told them to do,” he added.
