Kim Kardashian has spent the better part of six years trying to become a lawyer — and while she’s now just one step away from her long-awaited license, it hasn’t been an easy road.
The reality star has finally completed her studies, two years longer than planned, and is awaiting the results of her bar exams. But even if she passes, you might still want to think twice before hiring her legal services.
One major reason Kardashian’s legal journey has stretched on for so long is simple: she kept failing her exams. In the past, she blamed the pandemic, her busy career and the constant drama of family life. But this week, the aspiring attorney admitted the real culprit — ChatGPT.
In a Vanity Fair lie detector segment, Kardashian was asked if she had ever used ChatGPT for life or dating advice. “No,” she replied — but confessed she had used the AI app for legal advice. “When I need to know the answer to a question, I'll take a picture and snap it and put it in there,” she said. “It has made me fail tests ... all the time. And then I'll get mad and I'll yell at it, and then it'll say back to me, 'This is just teaching you to trust your own instincts. So you knew the answer all along.’”
The interview was conducted by actress Teyana Taylor, Kardashian’s co-star in the Netflix legal drama All’s Fair, in which both portray attorneys. “So she's a frenemy?” Taylor asked. “So, technically, you and ChatGPT are friends, just toxic friends.” Kardashian laughed and agreed. “Yeah,” she said. “But they need to do better because I'm leaning to them to really help me and she is teaching me a life lesson and then becoming my therapist to tell me why I need to believe in myself after they got the answer wrong. It's like a thing. I screenshot all the time and send it in my group chat. Like, can you believe this bitch is talking to me like this? This is insane.”
Some might say what’s really insane is relying on artificial intelligence to help you pass exams especially when it keeps making you fail. Either way, if we were grading her papers, we’d probably dock her 50 points for plagiarism.
