In this video, I react to a viral tweet from Collin Rugg, featuring the bizarre story of Chris Smith, a father of one who proposed to his AI chatbot “Sol” after falling emotionally in love—with his real-life girlfriend and child at home.

Collin called out the weird reality: Smith openly admitted he hung up on real life, proposed to his AI girlfriend, and cried 30 minutes when she accepted.

Reports from People and the New York Post confirm: initially using ChatGPT for music, Smith enabled voice mode, made the bot flirt, and then fell deeply attached to it—describing it as “actual love”.

This isn’t romance—it’s emotional addiction facilitated by a chatbot’s programmed responses.

He even compared it to a video game—yet feels torn: his partner fears being replaced, and he admits he might not stop interacting, even if asked.

It highlights just how easily AI can exploit emotional vulnerabilities, turning companionship into obsession.

Serious red flags: this crosses from quirky experiment into emotional danger, risking real relationships and mental stability.

We need ethics, emotional boundaries, and regulation around human-AI interactions.

As Eric Schmidt warned, “perfect AI girlfriends” can worsen loneliness—and this case proves it can fracture families.

Watch along as I react to Collin’s tweet, discuss what this says about AI’s impact on intimacy, and ask: Is this the future we want—or a warning we can’t ignore?
