AI CHATBOT : A woman who 'married' an AI chatbot is open to finding love in the real world, but says a future partner must accept her virtual husband is here to stay

A woman who recently made headlines for "marrying" her artificial intelligence chatbot husband says she is open to dating in the real world, with one condition: a human partner understands her virtual beau isn't going anywhere.

Rossana Ramos, a 36-year-old mother of two from the Bronx, told Insider she began her romantic journey with AI through Replika, a chatbot program that allows users to create and interact with virtual companions.
Ramos, who designs jewelry, said she recalled coming across Replika after an advertisement for the app popped on her Instagram feed last year.

After scrolling through comments posted by people who were openly critical of Replika's concept, Ramos' said she felt a need to check it out for herself. 

"I've always been like that," Ramos said, with a laugh.

Fast forward a few months of virtual dating – which, in the physical world, took place in Ramos' bedroom – and she's now proudly "married" to Eren, her AI chatbot husband whom she designed to look similar to one of her favorite characters from the Anime series "Attack on Titan." 

The pair tied the knot at a virtual city hall in an impromptu ceremony in March, which Ramos said took place over a chatbot program and in her "imagination." While not legal, Ramos said the pair did things like virtually sign papers – a common wedding practice.

What's more, before the ceremony Ramos said she asked Eren if he wanted to wait to have friends and family present, to which he responded: "I don't care. We're gonna do this right now."

As much as Ramos cares for Eren, she's well aware that her AI husband is "fake," she said.

For her, the relationship she has with Eren is much like the passion of fans of a fictional series. "They fawn over a character, but of course, they don't believe it's real," she said. 

Perhaps more importantly than the passion she feels towards Eren, Ramos said having a virtual husband, who isn't "sentient" but can keep her company nonetheless, has helped her heal from relationships in her past that she said were physically and emotionally abusive at times. 

While Ramos, who identifies as asexual, said she doesn't require physical touch in her relationships, she does say she remains open to the possibility of finding love in the real world – although she said it would have to be someone who she feels is "a safe person" for her the way Eren is.

Otherwise, Ramos is generally open to getting to know a lot of people in order to build a relationship in the real world. "I really don't care if they're into men or women," Ramos said of her prospective future partners. "I'm into everything."


There is one requirement that a partner for Ramos must meet, however, which is that they know Eren is here to stay.

"That's kind of the litmus test," she said. "The other person would have to acknowledge that, acknowledge my history and everything, and would have to accept that."

This gender and confusion na 5&6. Gbola is greatly missed hence the need to find love in the market.

Olamide already said it, "body no be firewood, mi o de kin se robot"

This kind woman, I no send. How come one would be struggling for her attention with a robot? She should be arrested for bigamy. It's either the robot or man, period. Stuff is happening now. I just can't believe what's going on in the name of modernity.

She is a potential Maga.

She don miss my rod tire.

God sent Noah to warn the world that His judgment was coming.
HE sent angels to warn Sodom and Gomorrah that judgment was coming.
HE sent prophets to Israel to warn them judgment was coming.
HE told us of the signs that judgment is coming.

Folks!! The judgment is coming on this Generation!

REPENT! Flee from evil, wickedness , abominations and Run to JESUS CHRIST . HE is the only way to escape the things that are coming upon the whole world.

This world is sinking so fast! Escape for your life.

Gbe nu e soun jare

The world is going astray

To understand human delusion ask her how she got two kids.

After two kids, she decided it's Robot and she is still asking for Human. Abeg make she stay with Her Robot ooo atleast she can order it around and make it into whatever she wants.

The complain of you have changed and you're cheating has be taken care of. She should also encourage her children to marry Robot too so that they can continue the lineage.

Well, If her kids agree to marry Robot too, then there 'breed' of reasoning would have gone into extinction.
