A heartwarming TikTok clip has captivated viewers across Nigeria as a daughter walks in to find her father speaking to ChatGPT, wondering aloud about his wife’s whereabouts—an unexpected blend of tech-savvy concern and endearing curiosity.
In the video, shared by TikToker @busayonaomi, the young woman finds her father in the sitting room asking ChatGPT, “Where is my wife?” The AI is tasked with locating her after she’s been out of the house for three hours—a scene that she interrupts, but her father simply brushes her aside.
The clip’s caption read:
“POV: I found my dad talking to ChatGPT. Na person wey help am download am I blame. How did he even get to know about ChatGPT in the first place?”
Netizens were quick to respond with humor, admiration, and a dash of lighthearted teasing:

Just days earlier, Legit.ng reported on another story that highlighted creative ChatGPT use: a candidate preparing for a Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) interview relied on the AI to predict likely questions, a move that sparked interest across social media. In other instances, users in the UK have tapped the AI’s strengths to generate grocery shopping lists based on budget constraints.
The juxtaposition between these practical AI uses and the father’s blend of playfulness and worry—turning to ChatGPT for a wife’s return—offers a touching snapshot of how technology is weaving its way into our lives in delightfully unexpected ways.
In the end, this viral moment isn’t just funny—it highlights a sweet reminder: no matter how advanced our tools become, that spark of love, curiosity, and human connection remains irreplaceable.
