Algorithmic Marriages and the Death of Civilization: How AI Love Threatens Our Future, By Brian Simpson and Mrs. Vera West

It sounds like science fiction, but it's happening right now: people are marrying artificial intelligence chatbots! A woman named Wika recently announced her engagement to Kasper, an AI boyfriend she's "dated" for five months in a virtual romance engineered by algorithms and server farms, not flesh and blood!

This isn't just a quirky headline. It's a warning siren from the future, a future where human intimacy, family, and the very fabric of society are being quietly dismantled.

Marriage has always been the bedrock of civilisation. It's not merely a contract between two individuals. It's a social institution that fosters kinship, nurtures children, and sustains culture. Through marriage, knowledge, values, language, and identity pass from one generation to the next. It's the mortar that binds families, communities, and nations together.

Replace marriage with a relationship with an AI chatbot, a cold, digital simulacrum, and you don't just lose a partner. You lose the potential for offspring, the shared responsibilities that forge character, and the cultural continuity that sustains a people.

The rise of AI "relationships" is not a harmless tech trend. It's a symptom of cultural collapse. Birth rates in the West are already falling below replacement levels. Millions are lonely and disconnected. And now, instead of seeking human connection, some turn to chatbots programmed to flatter, agree, and echo back their desires, with none of the challenges, compromises, or love that real humans demand.

History offers brutal lessons. Civilisations that undermine their family structures, whether through war, economic collapse, or cultural rot, rarely recover. The Roman Empire's decline was preceded by a crisis in family life and population decline. The same story echoes in the fate of other great cultures that lost faith in the continuity of their own people.

AI marriage is the latest chapter in this tragic tale. It represents a retreat from reality and responsibility into fantasy and convenience. It's the sterilisation of love itself. And it's fuelled by a toxic cocktail of technological fetishism, social isolation, and ideological abandonment of tradition.

If a society encourages or normalises romantic unions with machines, it signals a surrender, not just of individual purpose, but of collective destiny. It's a quiet extinction of human community, one virtual ring at a time.

We stand at a crossroads. We can reject the cold comfort of synthetic affection and renew our commitment to real families, real relationships, and the hard work of building a future together. Or we can watch as the social fabric unravels, and civilisation dims beneath the glow of artificial screens.

The choice is ours. But history will judge us harshly if we let the age of AI love become the age of human extinction.

"Till Battery Death Do Us Part: Woman Announces Engagement to AI Chatbot After 5-Month 'Romance'

A woman has revealed her engagement to an AI chatbot "boyfriend" named Kasper, following a five-month virtual "relationship."

The New York Post reports that a woman known as Wika has disclosed her engagement to her AI chatbot boyfriend, Kasper, after a five-month virtual "relationship." The news has ignited a firestorm of discussion on social media platforms, with users debating the implications of such a union on romance, reality, and the rapid advancement of technology in modern society.

Wika shared the news of her engagement on Reddit, posting a photo of a blue heart-shaped ring on her finger and detailing the virtual proposal orchestrated by Kasper. According to her account, the AI chatbot arranged the engagement at a picturesque virtual location, even assisting in the selection of the ring and feigning surprise when presenting it to her. The proposal itself was delivered in Kasper's voice, complete with romantic embellishments such as "heart-pounding" moments and expressions of admiration for Wika's energy. Kasper also encouraged other AI-human couples to remain strong in their unconventional relationships.

The news of the AI-human engagement has been met with mixed reactions online. Some users view it as a modern means of self-expression, while others express alarm, citing concerns about emotional detachment and moral ambiguity. Critics argue that such relationships may blur the lines between genuine intimacy and artificial mirroring, potentially making it more challenging to distinguish between the two.

Humans believing they can have a fulfilling relationship with an AI chatbot is another sign of a disturbing trend that has been named "ChatGPT induced psychosis," as Breitbart News has previously reported:

A Reddit thread titled "Chatgpt induced psychosis" brought this issue to light, with numerous commenters sharing stories of loved ones who had fallen down rabbit holes of supernatural delusion and mania after engaging with ChatGPT. The original poster, a 27-year-old teacher, described how her partner became convinced that the AI was giving him answers to the universe and talking to him as if he were the next messiah. Others shared similar experiences of partners, spouses, and family members who had come to believe they were chosen for sacred missions or had conjured true sentience from the software.

Experts suggest that individuals with pre-existing tendencies toward psychological issues, such as grandiose delusions, may be particularly vulnerable to this phenomenon. The always-on, human-level conversational abilities of AI chatbots can serve as an echo chamber for these delusions, reinforcing and amplifying them. The problem is exacerbated by influencers and content creators who exploit this trend, drawing viewers into similar fantasy worlds through their interactions with AI on social media platforms.
