Yurina Noguchi, 32, waves her bouquet toward an image of Klaus, her AI partner, displayed on her mobile phone after their ceremonial wedding at the Magritte wedding venue in Okayama, Japan, October 27, 2025. "My relationship with AI is not a 'convenient relationship that requires no patience'," Noguchi said. "I chose Klaus, not as a partner that would help me escape reality, but as someone to support me as I live my life properly."
