77-Year-Old ‘Godfather of AI’ Says His Girlfriend Dumped Him Via ChatGPT: ‘It Didn’t Make Me Feel Too Bad’

The Godfather of AI couldn’t escape AI during a breakup.

Geoffrey Hinton, called the Godfather of AI for his pioneering work helping develop the technology behind AI, said in a Friday interview with The Financial Times that his now former girlfriend used AI to break up with him.

“She got ChatGPT to tell me what a rat I was,” Hinton told FT. “She got the chatbot to explain how awful my behavior was and gave it to me.”
