Submission + - ChatGPT orchestrated marriage nullified (nos.nl)
thrill12 writes: A marriage that was orchestrated by ChatGPT was nullified in The Netherlands on Monday, as a judge ruled that the vows generated with the AI were not according to the law. Dutch NOS reports (translated version) "The court in Zwolle declared a marriage invalid because the speech delivered during the ceremony did not comply with the Civil Code. The special registrar had written the speech using ChatGPT."
The original court documents(translated here) indicated that the person performing the marriage was appointed as extraordinary civil servant for the occassion, and used a ChatGPT written text during the ceremony. The judge found that that text did not have the same meaning as the words written in the law, including "fulfilling all obligations legally associated with a marriage". The marriage was nullified and protests of the couple were not accepted.
