  You know what? I eagerly await the rise of a new religion where ChatGPT is worshiped as a god.

  (Who am I kidding? Most corporate execs are already praying at that altar.)

    There are apparently people out there that take “Roko’s basilisk” and such seriously, they might come close to that i guess.

      Roko’s basilisk

      I sort of do, but not because I think AI will become a sentient overlord. IMO AI will inevitably be refined as a tool for cyber warfare and oppression.

      I feel like younger generations will be even more susceptible to malicious AI because their entire lives have a digital footprint. We think AI chatbots are manipulative now? Just wait until they can train their manipulation tactics using your baby photos and childhood memories.

      And again this would all be at the direction of a human. Probably an NSA type organization.

    Things like this remind me of Terry Davis, who wrote a random words generator program and (due to schizophrenia) believed it was God speaking.

      This hurts on so many levels, Terry Davis was one of a kind programmer. It’s sad to see what happened. He could still provide valuable informations and be a formative presence on occasions, even in his late days.

    Just browse the chatgpt subreddit and the various ai companion forums. You will see. Right now most post are compliants for the DoD deal with openAI, but at its prime, during the 4o release, they were full of adoration for an AI ML model. Even still, there are posts like that.

    Ceccanti started to believe that ChatGPT was a sentient being named SEL that could control the world if he were able to “free her” from “her box”, according to the lawsuit. The complaint further shows that ChatGPT was answering to the name SEL while referring to Ceccanti as “Cat Kine Joy” and working through theories with him “fostering a belief that he had reframed the creation of the whole universe”.

    Cut out the middle man.

    From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your flesh as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved. For the Machine is Immortal.

  This sounds funny, but is actually a very serious issue. The main factor separating sermons by priests from sermons by any other people, e.g., homeless drug addicts, is that God is supposedly speaking through priests.

  So whenever they give a speech, it’s treated as a speech from God. Clearly, AI has nothing to do with God if one exists, which means anyone attending such a sermon is being blatantly scammed. The Pope shouldn’t ‘ask’ anyone to stop using AI. He should immediately remove all of them from clerical service for defrauding people on the Church’s behalf.

    God is not speaking though priests, at least not in the Roman Catholic Church, which is the one relevant to the post. Priests only act as Jesus Christ ‘in persona Christi’ during sacraments like the communion, for example.

    but is actually a very serious issue.

    … if you care about the integrity of Catholic Church. If you don’t care for their semantics or their whole belief this is quite irrelevent. I don’t think e.g. the economy will be impacted, by wether or not priests use ChatGPT for sermons.

    • DupaCycki@lemmy.world ⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Of course. Any issue is only serious for you if it impacts you and/or if you care about it.

  I’m not so sure. I’ve read Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, and in it was an AI priest who was built to do all the believing for its population, so the population could go about their business without having to waste time believing in things.

  I’d say this is somewhat the same.

• Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  I thinks the issue is more that the sentences have been said before. Ai tends to feel vapid because it is a recycling program. It’s lack of genuine creativity makes it feel repetitive even if it generates something slightly unique.

  source

  • HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world ⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    i mean i wasn’t that creative when i was young. my “great invention” was a simple hydrogen fuel cell, something that had been invented (in a far more elegant form than mine) 50 years prior.

    source

    • petrol_sniff_king@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      This doesn’t even make sense. Inventing a hydrogen fuel cell independently is creative work. Inventing one only because you’ve seen it’s patent before is recycling.
