Abstract: As human relationships have evolved in terms of the way people form and experience marriages and live-in arrangements; old ways of analysing and legally defining relationships are limited in their ability to provide adequate responses to the complex issues at hand. This paper will explore the use of artificial intelligence (AI) as an enhanced tool for studying the dynamic nature of relationships between people, using new types of computerized methods. Using natural language processing (NLP) and other forms of AI to analyse and predict sentiment, emotions, domestic conflicts and societal views on relationship-based laws and regulations; AI can analyse large amounts of unstructured information, such as court documents, counsellor or therapist records, social media posts and the behaviour of individuals on internet platforms, to determine if there are patterns regarding the emotional and mental health of those in relationships and their interpretations of law and society. This paper provides a review of all relevant literature from multiple disciplines and presents examples of the application of this technology, across different countries (including India, the United States and European Union member states). Marriage and cohabiting (live-in) relationships are no longer viewed through the lens of solely religious, legal and/or societal values; but instead, are influenced by evolving views regarding individualism, cohabitation, gender roles, and individual choice and preference. Likewise, the increasing number of people entering into live-in relationships is part of a broader trend toward non-traditional forms of partnership which place greater emphasis on emotional compatibility and mutual understanding rather than formal legal or religious recognition of a partnership. There are many global regulatory efforts being made to understand, assess and develop policy and regulation around this new technology in a way that considers both local needs and the use of data; and it is here that artificial intelligence offers an unprecedented potential for doing so. With its capacity to process large volumes of both structured and unstructured data, AI offers a powerful set of analytical tools for studying patterns, behavior and outcomes related to marriage and cohabiting (live-in) relationships. Regardless whether you are studying legal cases, trends on social media, survey data, policy documents, etc., AI can identify insights in ways that may take traditional research methods to find those same insights.AI applications such as NLP, Machine Learning, Sentiment Analysis and Predictive Modelling allow researchers, Policymakers, Legal Practitioners and Sociologists to provide objective assessments of Public Opinion, Legal Interpretation, Emotional Well-being, Gender Dynamics, and Socio-Economic Impacts related to Marriage and Cohabiting (Live-In) Relationships For example, AI can analyze court decisions and the manner in which disputes related to live-in relationships are resolved; further, Figure 1 below shows how AI can analyze media representations of marriage and cohabiting (live-in) relationships to assess the evolution of public attitudes toward marriage and cohabiting (live-in) relationships.
