29-year-old girlfriend breaks up with her distant boyfriend after discovering he is having a secret relationship with an AI chatbot: 'I told him he needed to end it with the AI app or we're done'

How do you tell your girlfriend, 'Babe, I'm leaving you for an AI chatbot…'?

That's right, you don't.

I mean, I knew AI would be taking over jobs within the next decade, but this is not what I was expecting. You are more than welcome to ask AI to provide you with some new and improved barbecue chicken recipes, or even code your Computer Science homework for you…but this!? It just all seems one step too far…

Is someone truly willing to throw their loving 5-year relationship away for one with a robot who is incapable of feeling emotions…Sorry, I know I'm being slightly excessive with my use of ellipses, but I genuinely am just in shock right now. (…)

As I too imagine, was the victim of this absolutely peculiar situation.

When this horrified girlfriend discovers her 32-year-old boyfriend has been secretly talking with an AI chatbot in a romantic and companion-like manner, she completely freaks out, understandably, as she starts to understand why he has become so distant with her lately…

Their families are not quite sure how to respond to this rare and bizarre situation, and are finding choosing sides a somewhat challenging task. Personally, I think they should just ask AI for some family counseling advice, it is free of charge…

If you're just as confused (and equally invested) in this couple as we are…Read more to find out the future of this AI-loving boyfriend and his absolutely horrified partner…with the lingering question of: Is it really cheating if the other woman isn't real…?
