Didn't the pope already say it was sacrilegious to do this?

All the AIs are trained on public domain texts like the bible, just prompt your favorite AI to take on the role.

But there are issues of perspective even within the bible, like who are the reliable narrators? Who was pushing an obvious agenda or how was the text changed in the ensuing millennia? AI is not a biblical scholar, that's a whole different, more complex concept.

People will just use this as confirmation bias of whatever they want to believe about the bible.

    Methinks this is the point, create silo'd echo chambers that are tailored to the individual's biases. They can't possibly keep up with all the different denominations and their particular spin on interpreting the bible, nor do they care to. AI, though, can hallucinate any confirmation desired and be convincing while doing it.

    Querying the bible, including Caananite sources for which everything before Moses is based on, you get to conclude the Moses was a Hasbara piece of shit warmonger who invented everything to split from Caananite traditions. New Testament/Jesus only makes sense if he is being politically polite/correct in addressing Jews about what a piece of shit Moses was. Religion based on the bible is still first and foremost, power for the religious body that can be maximized through alliance with Kings/politicians. Take people's souls to sell them for the most demonic purposes is the profit of religion.

    AI is good a biblical/period history research. Pastors are good at telling you the most important part of the bible is how to support Israel supremacy to bring about Armaggedon/rapture as "your" reward.
