Couples are using ChatGPT to write their wedding vows, with mixed results

Soon-to-be married couples have begun flocking to OpenAI's ChatGPT artificial intelligence platform to assist with wedding vows, best man speeches, and other wedding-related tasks, according to CNN.

The outlet spoke to a multitude of ChatGPT users who have attempted to save time and effort on their wedding preparations.

One woman named Elyse was nearing her wedding date and was still without vows. A user provides a written prompt, and the chat bot promises to help users get over writer's block, but Elyse said that "the output was pretty cheesy with personal references to me and my husband."

However, the woman and her fiancé both agreed to use the service, eventually praising the platform's inherent cheesiness.

"ChatGPT is a genius with alliteration, analogies, and metaphors. Having something like, ‘I promise to be your partner in life with the enthusiasm of a golfer’s first hole in one’ in my back pocket was comical," the woman remarked.

Another woman named Ellen used the AI to draft her vows, but found the results to be inaccurate.

“I started drafting my vows and when I typed in how we met, it produced this very delightful story,” she said. “Some of it was inaccurate, making up certain details," the product manager recalled.

Still, Ellen said the AI gave her a "helping hand" and that her husband often uses ChatGPT for work, so he may use it for his wedding vows, too.

A man from Brooklyn used ChatGPT to draft a traditional ketubah, a Jewish marriage contract. However, he and his wife were unsatisfied with the AI's output regarding gender equality and intimacy and asked the bot to make some changes.

The Brooklynite says he will not be using the AI for his own vows. “I want them to be less refined and something no one else helped me with," he said.

He will, however, use ChatGPT to help him officiate his best man's wedding.

The chat bot has become so widely used that a wedding registry called "Joy" has integrated the AI into its website. The site uses the AI for "Writer's Block" to help "inspire you in writing your toughest wedding-related wordage."

Joy's co-founder and CEO Vishal Joshi believes AI can be a true, positive benefit for society.

“Just like smartphones, if applied well, the positive impact of AI on our lives can far outshine the negatives. We’re working on responsibly innovating using AI to advance the wedding and event industry as a whole," Joshi said.

Below is a sample of the website's service.
