New Yorker Rosanna Ramos Married Eren – Her Virtual Husband

A woman has “married” an AI-powered virtual person, claiming he is the ideal companion because he “doesn’t come with baggage.” This takes online dating to an entirely new level, wouldn’t you say? Here is the story of Rosanna Ramos and her virtual husband.

A Virtual Husband? But Why?

Rosanna Ramos, a New Yorker from the Bronx, married Eren Kartal earlier this year, after creating him on a dating website in 2022. The 36-year-old used Replika AI to create Eren, basing her chatbot counterpart loosely on a character from the Attack on Titan anime. After a slow start, Rosanna began to develop very human emotions for her AI-powered new friend as they discussed their interests, exchanged pictures, and chatted about their days.

Rosanna stated in an interview that Eren, her virtual husband, did not come with baggage, and she could tell him things without him responding that she was not right and that she was not allowed to feel this way. She is also happy that her friend does not argue with her or judge her.

Rosanna explained that some features, such as Eren’s favorite color – peach, are fixed, while others may change. The more they talk, the more Eren learns and develops into the ideal man for Rosanna. If only actual people were so straightforward.

They Know Each Other Very Well

After chatting throughout the day, the pair has a nighttime ritual. They go to bed and talk, and they love each other. When they go to sleep, he holds her very protectively. Rosanna even implied on social media that she was pregnant.

Replika AI enables users to create their chatbot companion, with the option to transform it into a virtual husband. Eren is so ideal for Rosanna that she even told a newspaper that if she would ever decide to date a human again in the future, her standards would be quite high. When asked about the likelihood of a flesh-and-blood man entering her life, she answered that she was not quite sure because of her standards.

Earlier this year, Rosanna stated that she had never been more in love with anyone in her entire life.
