ChatGPT helps man find birth mother after 20-year search

A man named Avtar Singh used ChatGPT to locate his birth mother after a 20-year search. Singh had limited information, including a first name and approximate age, and was hesitant to use DNA testing due to privacy concerns. ChatGPT identified a potential match, Savinder Kaur Nagi, by cross-referencing his details with an online tribute article. This led to a connection with Nicci Dhamu, the daughter of Savinder Kaur Nagi, who had also been searching for Singh. The AI's ability to reference a specific article proved crucial in verifying the connection, leading to a reunion. AI
