1st Chat-bot or "AI" preacher tested

FUERTH, Germany (AP) ? The artificial intelligence chatbot asked the believers in the fully packed St. Paul?s church in the Bavarian town of Fuerth to rise from the pews and praise the Lord.

The ChatGPT chatbot, personified by an avatar of a bearded Black man on a huge screen above the altar, then began preaching to the more than 300 people who had shown up on Friday morning for an experimental Lutheran church service almost entirely generated by AI.​

Norm MacDonald voice: Germans LOVE black megachurch pastors

perfect use of the technology: ingesting the empty feel good pablum preachers "hammer into yokels skulls" (HL Mencken), and regurgitating it ad nauseum for free.

At least I'm happy to know my job is still safe.

Yeah, I don't really see much downside to AI taking THESE particular jobs.

At least not yet.

Will that change?

That?s in the bot?s own control.

Pandora?s box has been thrown wide open.

I suppose? But since it's only a computer program, you can always just shut it off.
