75-year-old man falls in love with AI girl, demands divorce from wife
Jiang contacts AI-generated digital girl on social media

Recently, a shocking incident occurred in China in which a 75-year-old man, Jiang, fell in love with an AI girl and was willing to divorce his wife.

Jiang demanded a divorce from his wife so that he could spend more time with his “AI girlfriend”.

Jiang contacted an AI-generated digital girl on social media. Although her facial expressions and lip sync were clearly artificial, Jiang was immediately attracted to her.

Jiang truly felt that this AI girl was connected to him and her messages began to touch Jiang’s emotions, which weakened his real marital bond.

When his wife expressed concern about Jiang’s online engagement, Jiang demanded a divorce. However, their adult children quickly intervened and made them realize that their “lover” was actually a creative artificial intelligence.

Experts have warned in light of the incident that AI-based emotional attachments, especially among the elderly, could lead to psychological and economic crises. Such virtual relationships are no substitute for real human relationships.
