Las Vegas Wedding Chapels Could Be Next
It was bound to happen sooner than later. An AI officiated at a wedding and now, could Las Vegas wedding chapels be next? Reece Wiench and Deyton Truitt gave themselves only five days to plan their wedding. The reason being, Deyton is in the Army and was about to deploy, and Reece wanted to go with him….makes sense. So with that in mind, they decided it might be more convenient to use an AI as the officiant for the ceremony!
To be honest, Reeces’s dad came up with the idea and said it would be cheaper and easier than finding an officiant. So they got online and asked it if it could step in. However, it wasn’t as easy as they thought. The first reply was “NO.” The response was, “I don’t have eyes. I don’t have a body. I can’t officiate your wedding.” But with a bit of fast talking, they eventually convinced it that it could work.
“From this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer…”
According to an article in the Longmont Leader, “As part of the ceremony, the ChatGPT officiant quoted scripture and expounded on the passages as they related to love, marriage and the future.”
In most states, you couldn’t do this. But in Colorado, you don’t need to have a wedding officiant as long as both people agree to it. Not sure what the laws are here in Nevada, but you would think, hey, anything goes right?
But again, the question is, could Las Vegas wedding chapels be next? Having an AI performing as the officiant at weddings 24/7 up and down the strip? In some cases, it does make sense, but doesn’t it take away the personal touch? To just have a recording reciting everything and you only having so much time to respond. We all get how we have self checkout, do it yourself stuff, but where do we draw the line?
It was something unique on The Mike & Carla Morning Show you can experience from this morning and you be the judge!
