A tale of good versus evil played out on the large screen in the sanctuary of St. Paul’s Lutheran church in Finland. Jesus was shown in robes with long hair and a beard, while Satan was dressed in more modern clothes but with a menacing frown and higher-pitched voice — all created by artificial intelligence.
Now that’s blasphemy.
Church service without a single soul involved?
We have done this before all over the world with people with no soul.
I am not saying church isn’t far from God. I am saying that the whole concept of using AI for this is pretty offensive by itself.
Sure is. …and I’m an atheist …and finnish.
Then again church services here mean so little to general public, only few will give a shit. We do have our “fundie zones”, but they usually don’t belong in to that sect.
You won’t learn a fucking thing in a church.
That’s just wrong. I’ve learnt many things! Such as
- I don’t like it
- Regulars smell
- Everyone’s constantly guilt-tripped into giving money
- The harmonics of that fancy version of piano (it’s not called that, slipped my mind atm) are actually awesome
And many more!
I love me some organ music.
There’s a video game called Stellaris that uses it, and I find myself pausing the game, just to zone out to that ethereal sound.
