And if you want to see how this is going to end, watch this scene from the 1971 movie THX 1138.

Compared to many llm I bet an ai Jesus would be easy to self host especially if you want just a one to one bible based one, there are already "therapy" chat bots so a general theology one could be interesting

"So we can say they had a religiously positive moment with this AI Jesus," he told the Guardian. "For me, that was surprising."

Whether that's an endorsement of the tech or a sign that visitors to the church are particularly gullible remains unclear.

Well, I have a guess.

They're Catholic so I'd imagine the Pope will threaten to revoke their pedophilia pass
