I’m not sure what the term is for when “the enemy of my enemy is my friend, but that friend is also a lesser enemy” is. But fuck it, I’m on team Jesus apparently
A Catholic Church that defends artists as policy is a win in my book.
I never thought I’d die fighting side-by-side with a pope.
Honestly, if I was the leader of a religion, AI would seem like a great tool. Create an agent with live voice chat that is prompted to give all of the religion’s fundamental ideas. A single religious leader could create the app, and millions could use it. The leader could assert that the app is designed exactly the way that
${deity}told the leader to design it, so that the followers are essentially talking with${deity}. It would be just like THX 1138.Great film!
You are a very bad villain, let me explain.
Religion is about control. Your idea is giving away the only leverage you have at controlling people to the A.I.
What happens when the LLM bullshit a section of your bible that contradicts the “real” foundations of your religion? That’s the God’s AI as it intended’s voice against yours…
Good luck not ending on a stake ;)
I agree with the figurative image of the spark to describe something gen AI-produced slop lacks.
Figuratively, because we all know you’re actually being literal and make it about that bullshit you call “soul”. Sorry Christians, this still doesn’t exist.
Frankly I’m fine with the alliance, and fine if their motivation is believing ai art is bad because it didn’t originate from a “soul”. Like fine. Believe what you want.
Now go destroy some data centers (in Minecraft ofc)
Well, now artists literally have the power of God and Anime on their side
Pope says: “Fuck Clankers”
Based pope
Never thought I would agree with the church.
The church has been right on a lot of stuff. Against Usury, helping the poor, protecting the environment.
Not so much on the raping young children part though, I, in mine own opinion, do not believe they were right about systematically running a global child raping organization.
I’m glad the pope is anti-AI and all, but it hardly makes up for everything else the church is responsible for, no?
See the good. Yes, the church has a past (and present) fraught with problems and unforgivable acts, but if you think one person, even its supreme leader, can stop it during their lifetime, you’re overly optimistic. Do you think replacing the president will fix the US? Do you think Japan is unlovable now because of what they did in the past?
People like you are so annoying, why can’t you just be happy about small wins?
Of course the catholic church is against A.I. it could very possibly become a powerful God that is visible and tangible to people, as opposed to one that is just said to exist, needs a system of believe to exist, and nothing can be directly attributed to. Any positive or negative act that is brought upon the world as a result of an A.I super being will be measurable, visible, and able to be witnessed by all those affected.
Sounds like a pretty big threat to the existence of all religions to me.
“…A.I. it could very possibly become a powerful God that is visible and tangible to people…”
“…an A.I super being will be…”My brother in machine-Christ, you need to take a deep breath, go outside, and touch some grass.
