GIGO writ large. It’s rare but A.I. can trigger mental health crisis’ in people.


This sounds more like the onset of an epistemological crisis than anything else, one that caters to the ongoing enablement of confirmation bias.

Then the problem is with people and I agree. I suppose you're saying that AI could amplify these problems. That's right as well.

But's it's just like any tool. Any tool can be a leverage for either good or wrong.
Yes, it is a tool and my opposition to it is only indirectly related to issues with AI itself. But its not just about how the tool is leveraged, but that it requires understanding that most lack to know when and where it is suitable to use. We already see people using it inappropriately in most cases, and that's only going to get worse as it becomes increasingly accessible. The speed at which AI produces garbage, alongside a lack of disclosure of when AI was used, makes for a situation where misinformation can propagate far quicker, and far more convincingly, than it already does.

Ironically, chatgpt AI did admit if a person loves to dwell in misinformation, false teachings, etc, it would be unable to get such person out of it.

The false "prosperity gospel" is very popular in Christianity for example. By default, chatgpt promotes the prosperity gospel if you start a chat fresh without any context nor history.

These are due to certain rules in place like social and political correctness.

Not entirely AI's fault but the rules of society imposed on it which by Godly standards is corrupt.

I definitely would NOT recommend AI for someone new to Christianity and wants to use AI for personal bible studies for example.

The AI regards Paul as some kind of an espionage master or guru. Will use espionage tactics primarily and if necessary with advanced technology and advanced weaponry to eventually break free from oppression.
It is not a sheep. It’s nothing. It’s a program.
That doesn't buck the majorly narrative.

Surprisingly not in the way some of mankind surmised, that his purpose was a form of espionage to protect the Sanhedrin and Jewish faith by drawing Jesus followers away from them. Easier than trying to stone them all. It may not have been his intention, but Gentiles did just that.

Yeah, your last point speaks to one of the main issues I have with AI. In order to effectively use it, the user has to already have a pretty good idea what to look for in its output and be able to sort out noise. Going in blind or using it for initial research is more likely to create misinformation and misunderstandings than produce anything close to viable results.
