In a surprisingly candid moment, Kim Kardashian admitted her ambitious law-study journey has hit some unexpected snags — and she’s pointing the finger at ChatGPT. During a recent episode of a Vanity Fair video lie-detector interview, the reality star turned law-aspirant revealed she regularly uses ChatGPT as a study tool but has come away frustrated. “They’re always wrong,” she said. “It has made me fail tests all the time.”
Kardashian explained that she snaps photos of legal questions and uploads them to the AI chatbot, trusting it to guide her through tricky exam material. But instead of clarity, she says she receives misleading answers. “So when I am needing to know the answer to a question, I’ll take a picture… and put it in there,” she shared. “And then I’ll get mad and I’ll yell at it like, ‘You made me fail! Why did you do this?’”
The star bluntly rejected the idea that she treats ChatGPT as a friend. When asked if she viewed the AI as a buddy, she replied “No. I use it for legal advice,” marking the tool not as a friendly companion but a utilitarian — one she now terms a “frenemy” and sometimes a “toxic friend.”
Part of the frustration, Kardashian says, comes from ChatGPT’s follow-up responses. She described the chatbot answering her frustrations with phrases like, “This is just teaching you to trust your own instincts. You knew the answer all along.” For anyone relying on clear, correct guidance, that feels less like help — more like gaslighting.
Kardashian’s law-study journey is already unconventional. She didn’t attend traditional law school but has been “reading law” since 2019, passed the so-called “baby bar” exam in 2021, and sat for the full California bar in July 2025 while awaiting her results.
Her remarks underscore a larger conversation about the limits of generative AI in high-stakes education and professional settings. As an industry analyst put it: even for someone with Kardashian’s resources, trusting a tool that “sounds confident but is fundamentally guessing” can lead to pitfalls.
In short, Kardashian may be a household name — but she’s still human when it comes to studying. And in a scenario where even an AI-powered tutor can lead you astray, her message is clear: no shortcut replaces careful learning and verified knowledge.
