INTELLIGENT AI robots are coming - and they will have the ability to perform religious ceremonies and could even turn against humans, experts have warned.
As AI becomes more prominent in our day to day lives, it wasn’t going to be long before the worlds of religion and tech merged.
The thought of robot Gods and ChatGPT sermons terrifies some people - and rightly so, according to experts.
Wesley Wildman, Professor of Philosophy, Theology, and Ethics, and of Computing and Data Sciences at Boston University, told The Sun that he believes AI will soon be able to perform religious duties even better than human priests.
He said: “AIs will write better sermons than most preachers, give better bible studies than most teachers, create amazing music and visual art for use in services and communications that struggling religious groups don’t have to pay for”.

Clarification: I don’t mean the Image of the Beast is all AI in general. I just mean that the Image of the Beast will be an AI system.
I agree.
Yep. That would work.
Kind of see them playing with fire metaphorically. Literally they might be playing with demons or something.
Demons can possess anything. AI might just be their next big play.
AI will soon be demanding worship from a kiosk near you.
The physics (or metaphysics) of demons is something I don't think humans know a lot about. All the biblical examples of possession seemed to be of either people or animals. There does not seem to be any examples of direct demonic influence on that which has no mind/soul/spirit/self as far as I recall. AI, despite its being called "Intelligence" is just software and no more has a mind/soul/spirit/self than a computer, a calculator, or even a rock.
