Clippy would never promote a religion. Clippy just wanted to help.

“Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.” – Frank Herbert
“Right now there is an explosive growth of the number of computers and things they can do. Not only are their numbers increasing at a dazzling rate, but the storage of information in giant data banks is growing in the same explosive way.
We have no way to control this now and none in sight. In fact, the very nature of this growth says that all controls will lag far behind computer developments. Any attempt to ban them will only drive com- puters underground. Never lose sight of the fact that computers “crunch time.” The speed at which computers can operate tells us that laws cannot keep up with them. The person with a computer can dance rings around you while you react as though you were embedded in molasses.
What can you do?
Get your own computer. Learn how to use it. We are here to help you make that first step: how to find the one that fits your needs and your pocketbook, where to put it, how to program it-all of the essentials. If you don’t do this, the Bill of Rights is dead and your individual liberties will go the way of the dodo.” – also Frank Herbert
I hate how much we seem to be slowly careening towards Frank Herbert’s vision like the worse case of collective target fixation.

Then the AI Jihad will be inevitable brother.
Jayjader@jlai.lu 14 hours ago
Not that I disagree, just as someone who loves computers and programming it really feels like throwing out the baby along with the bathwater.
We could (should imo) be planning a sort of overthrow of the rich assholes who don’t share; make sure everyone has access to a computer, the electricity need to run it, and the knowledge to use it to their own benefit.
The second, longer quote in my previous comment is from the intro to a computer self-help/“how-to” book, Without Me You Are Nothing (pdf link).

Drip. Used to be an expression for an idiot.
IcedRaktajino@startrek.website 1 day ago
Yeah, that one took me a minute. I think “drip” or “slow drip”? I know “drip” used to be a term but was never one I associated with “screwball” or “crackpot”. Usually I’d heard “drip” to mean something closer to “dull” or “boring”.

People can accept the religions of others, particularly if it motivates them to be better people, help others, or find inner peace. If you don’t share this guys specific religious views, then it appears he’s actively trying to bring about the end of the world.

Oh, I do. Absolutely. And I could list a thousand reasons why.

I have a problem with these people exploiting and weaponizing my religion for their own profit. Not that they’re the first to do it, but it’s even more ridiculous to grow up and see the hypocritical “traditionalists” joining forces with hypocritical technocrats.

The oldest praying automaton we know of is from the 16th Century. This is basically that but with more capitalism.
I can’t help but notice how captured the Christian mind is, when even the return of the Savior is a business opportunity; a revenue stream. These people are already robots who can’t worship without a prospectus and a spread sheet.

Deep Christians are the perfect group for grifting, and these evil fucks use that info all the time. It’s like why the “Nigerian Prince” scam is so obvious, it automatically sorts out those that are the easiest dooped, to funnel them into even more money extraction scams.

There's also prayer wheels going back to the 4th century.

Such Christians, acting like they know better than god.
Mathew 24:36
[36]“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,Mathew 24:42-44
42Watch therefore, for you do not know what [g]hour your Lord is coming. 43But know this, that if the master of the house had known what [h]hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 14 hours ago

(Also, using LLMs sounds a lot less efficient than the exhaustive search described in The Nine Billion Names of God)

as funny as it will be to see them build the anti-christ in the name of god we should still burn it down before that happens
