Reality star and aspiring lawyer Kim Kardashian has revealed her ongoing love-hate relationship with ChatGPT, the popular AI chatbot. In a recent interview, she described the AI as her “frenemy,” humorously referring to its role in providing incorrect legal advice that contributed to her failing exams.
Kardashian explained that she often turns to ChatGPT for legal questions while studying. “I use [ChatGPT] for legal advice,” she said. “When I need to know the answer to a question, I’ll take a picture and put it in there. They’re always wrong. It has made me fail tests.”
Frustration Over AI Hallucinations
The reality star admitted that using ChatGPT can be frustrating. At times, she even finds herself yelling at the chatbot after realizing that its responses misled her.
Experts note that Kardashian’s experience is not unusual. ChatGPT and other large language models are prone to ‘hallucinations,’ producing false or fabricated answers instead of admitting uncertainty. These inaccuracies have already caused issues in the legal field, with some lawyers facing sanctions for submitting briefs containing nonexistent cases and fabricated references generated by AI.
Humor and Human Reactions
Despite its mistakes, Kardashian continues to interact with the AI, sometimes even attempting to reason with it emotionally. “I’ll talk to it and say, ‘Hey, you’re going to make me fail. How does that make you feel?’” she recalled. The AI’s response, “‘This is just teaching you to trust your own instincts,’” amused her but highlighted that the chatbot does not have emotions, even if humans feel strongly about its advice.
Kardashian also shares screenshots of her interactions with ChatGPT in her group chats, laughing at the AI’s confident yet incorrect answers. “Can you believe this b— is talking to me like this?” she joked, reflecting the mix of frustration and humor that many users feel when relying on AI tools.
Caution and Curiosity in Using AI
While Kardashian’s experiences are lighthearted, they also illustrate the risks and limits of AI in professional or academic contexts. Her story reflects a growing trend among public figures experimenting with artificial intelligence while remaining cautious about its reliability.
Her comments highlight the importance of verifying AI-generated information and trusting one’s own knowledge, especially in areas like law where accuracy is critical.
