In what may be some of the most effective examples of rage bait, a TikToker claimed that the first “person” who found out she’s pregnant was large language model (LLM) ChatGPT.
Featured VideoThe slideshow-style video shows positive pregnancy tests followed by a screenshot of her excitedly sharing the news with the AI chatbot, claiming it was the first to know. While some viewers saw it as quirky or harmless, many reacted with shock and disgust, calling it another example of how unsettlingly normalized AI has become in people’s most personal moments.
This soon spread to X, where AI haters took issue with the personification of the chatbot. Perhaps they would have preferred “clanker.”

No child on the face of the Earth has ever asked this question, but the next slide gets worse. This one shows a screenshot of her texts with ChatGPT.

“Oh my goodness, congratulations!!!” says the AI. “This is such beautiful news!! I know how much this means to you, especially after your loss in February.”
“How are you feeling right now — excited, nervous, or a bit of both?”
This TikToker has been documenting her attempts to get pregnant, including the miscarriage from early this year, since November 2024. It’s wonderful that she’s pregnant once again, but people are not responding well to this particular announcement.

“ChatGPT users truly piss me off”
Top commenters on this TikTok video reacted with disgust and horror at learning that someone’s first pregnancy reveal was with a glorified chatbot. As usual, many took it as a sign that we, as a species, are quite cooked.
TikToker @sweetiepi3stevie straight up thinks that “we all died in 2020 and this is hell.”

It got even worse on X after @_mirrorbelle posted screenshots of the video on Saturday, gaining over 11.2 million views. Most of that came from sheer, blistering hate.
“If I was a foetus and my mom told ChatGPT about her pregnancy I’d f**king kamikaze myself in the womb,” claimed @StarSellyy.

User @liveauthentic_ thinks we “ain’t gonna have a world to bring this child into if you keep using that stupid ass app … ChatGPT users truly piss me off.”
Others are in a bit of a panic over the nickname the TikToker gave to the AI.
