"We were looking up on ChatGPT boy names that go well with the last name Winkler,"
"And then once we found Hudson Winkler, we're like, 'give us a good middle name.'"
"What amazes me is how quickly people are losing either the confidence or the willingness to complete basic human tasks,"
"With naming kids, talking it out with your partner is fun! You get to share stories about why this name is good, but that name is out! So much of AI is meant to keep us from just talking to each other."
A couple used ChatGPT to generate a baby name, resulting in the name Hudson Oakley Winkler. The choice sparked online outrage and ridicule, with critics arguing that relying on AI for naming sidelines a meaningful human process. Commenters expressed concern about declining willingness to perform basic tasks and the loss of partner-to-partner conversations that make naming memorable. Others mocked the middle name Oakley for its brand association. Observers linked the incident to the rapid normalization of AI since ChatGPT's public release and raised questions about how technology alters personal, relational decisions.
