Then her friend suggested she try with the help of the OpenAI ChatGPT chatbot, writes CNN.
“Initially we introduced some kind of hint as a joke, and the result was quite sweet with personal references to me and my husband,” said Nguyen, who is a financial analyst at Qualcomm.
“But the essence of what the vows were supposed to be about was there – our promises to each other,” she adds.
Nguyen ended up using many of ChatGPT’s wedding vow suggestions, which were accepted with approval by the groom.
“It helped me de-stress because I had no previous experience with wedding vows. Also, ChatGPT is a genius with euphemisms and metaphors,” shares the bride.
Nearly five months after ChatGPT ignited a new AI technology race in Silicon Valley, more couples are using it to help with wedding planning, including writing vows and speeches, drafting religious marriage contracts and creating websites for the special day.
Ellen Le, product manager at a startup. recently created a portion of their wedding website using the new Writer’s Block Assistant tool in online wedding planning service Joy, which is one of the first third-party platforms to incorporate ChatGPT’s technology. Last month, OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, opened up access to the chatbot, paving the way for its integration into multiple apps and services.
Ellen used the feature to create an “About Us” page and write the route from San Francisco to her wedding in Napa Valley.
The Writer’s Block Assistant tool helps users write vows, groomsmen’s and bridesmaids’ speeches, thank you cards, and about us pages on wedding websites.
It allows users to highlight personal stories and choose their style.
“I started preparing my vows, and when I entered the information about how we met, a delightful story came out.”
Joy Co-Founder and CEO Josh Vaishel explains that the company launched Writer’s Block Assistant in March after an internal survey found that most of its users were overwhelmed with writing vows and speeches and needed help. Since the launch of the tool, the company has received thousands of requests.
“Nearly two decades ago, AI enthusiasts like myself and my fellow researchers only dreamed of the mass market adoption we see today, and we know this is just the beginning,” Josh said.
“Like smartphones, if applied well, the positive impact of AI on our lives can far outweigh the negatives. We are working to responsibly innovate with AI to further advance the wedding and events industry.”
In recent months, ChatGPT has raised concerns about its potential to spread misinformation and destroy certain professional duties of employees.
Now that technology is making its way into wedding ceremonies, the question inevitably arises as to whether people risk losing something very precious by intruding technology into what is supposed to be a deeply personal and, for many, spiritual moment in their lives.
Michael Green, an anesthesiologist with practices in Miami and New York, experimented with ChatGPT by asking it to create a traditional ketubah, a Jewish marriage contract, for his upcoming wedding in June.
Afterward, Green and his fiancee Kate Gardiner, the founder and CEO of a public relations agency, called for language changes related to gender equality and intimacy.
“In the end, we both looked at each other and said we couldn’t disagree with the result,” says Michael.
Editing takes about an hour, but it still saves them endless hours on what would otherwise be a lengthy process. However, Green plans to write his own vow.
“I want it to be something that no one else has helped me with,” says the groom.
However, he plans to use ChatGPT for inspiration in officiating his best friend’s wedding. “It comes down mostly to time, because I work so much, and this is so efficient,” adds the man.
