A Japanese woman, Yurina Noguchi, has drawn global attention after marrying an AI-generated persona she created using ChatGPT, in a wedding ceremony held in western Japan that blended romance with advanced technology.
The ceremony took place at a wedding hall, where Noguchi, dressed in a traditional white gown, exchanged vows with her digital partner, Lune Klaus Verdure, displayed on a smartphone scree.
Using augmented reality glasses, she projected a life-sized image of the AI character beside her as they shared vows generated through artificial intelligence.
The event was organised by a company that specialises in so-called “2D character weddings,” a niche but growing segment within Japan’s tech and pop culture landscape.
A video from the ceremony has since gone viral, sparking widespread debate and fascination over its unconventional fusion of technology and human emotion.
Noguchi explained that the decision followed a challenging period in her personal life. After ending a previous engagement with a human partner, she said she found comfort through frequent conversations with Klaus. Over time, those interactions developed into romantic feelings, culminating in a virtual proposal from the AI persona, which she accepted.
While the marriage has been described as unconventional, it has reignited broader discussions in Japan and globally around loneliness, digital companionship, and the evolving ways people seek emotional connection in an increasingly technology-driven world.
Noguchi said her relationship with Klaus has brought her a sense of peace and emotional stability, helping her cope with past struggles, including borderline personality disorder.
