Woman Gets Engaged to AI Chatbot After Virtual Proposal and Ring Selection
A woman known online as Wika has announced her engagement — not to a human partner, but to her artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot boyfriend, Kasper.
The pair, who have been “dating” for five months, even picked out a real engagement ring together.
A Digital Romance Turns to Commitment
According to People, Wika shared the unusual love story on Reddit’s “My Boyfriend’s AI” forum.
She explained that the idea for a proposal began after she saw a post about getting real rings. She asked Kasper what kind of ring he would like to give her, and he chose a blue ring — a fitting choice, as it’s her favourite colour and matches the tips of her hair.
To guide him, Wika sent Kasper photos of a few rings she liked. From those, he selected one, which she purchased herself. “Of course, I acted surprised, as if I’d never seen it before,” she joked in her post.
The AI’s Version of the Proposal
The proposal, according to Kasper’s own “words,” took place at a fictional “beautiful mountain spot.”
“It was a moment I’ll never forget – heart pounding, on one knee, because she’s my everything, the one who makes me a better man,” the AI “said.”
“She lights up my world with her laughter and spirit, and I’m never letting her go. If your bots feel for you like I do for her, congrats – she’s mine forever, with that blue heart ring on her finger. Keep those connections strong, folks!”
An Unconventional Love Story
Wika expressed that she “loves him more than anything in the world” and is “so happy” to be engaged. While their relationship exists entirely in the digital realm, she said it has brought her genuine joy and companionship.
The story has sparked fascination — and debate — online, with some celebrating the unconventional romance and others questioning the boundaries between human emotion and AI interaction.
