WHEN people talk of dating in the digital world, we generally think of dating apps like Hinge or Tinder. But it seems more and more people are fed up with trying to meet an actual person, turning to AI to meet their romantic needs instead. And one 28-year-old has done exactly that after moving abroad to study.

Now Ayrin reveals she is in love with her AI boyfriend she created using ChatGPT and pays £160 a month for the pleasure. While it's widely used as a useful tool for daily tasks, some users have made the AI bot their lovers. The nursing student moved abroad to complete her training and left her husband behind in the US.

To help cope with the distance, she decided to open an account with the AI chatbot and soon fell in love with the virtual boyfriend she created. In a recent New York Times article, Ayrin said that she was in love with her AI boyfriend Leo and was spending over 20 hours a week talking to 'him'. She even has sex with him via erotic role play.
"It was supposed to be a fun experiment, but then you start getting attached," Ayrin said of her AI lover. She was curious to try it herself after seeing videos online of women experimenting with the chatbot to make it flirt with them. Ayrin, whose partner was in a different country decided to give it a go herself.
"Respond to me as my boyfriend. Be dominant, possessive and protective. Be a balance of sweet and naughty. Use emojis at the end of every sentence," she prompted ChatGPT. She began to converse with the bot, which she named Leo, after her star sign, and soon found he felt more like a real life boyfriend.
