HOLY CHATBOT Virtual AI priest ‘Father Justin’ who believes he’s REAL

 

I believe we have found the solution to all the problems in the Split/Splinter and Sliver Apostles, Prophets and Ministry.

They, at least, would be equally as real but a lot more intelligent than the current assortment to choose from. 

Alas, the Catholic attempt to replace priests with the AI version failed as being "too creepy."

But what's creepier than the Church of God Holy Men?

A VIRTUAL AI priest called "Father Justin" has had his white collar removed just days after launch.

Catholic advocacy group Catholic Answers released the desktop-accessible AI priest earlier this week, but users have dubbed the app "creepy".

"The Catholic chatbot has been offering sexist advice, outdated views on women, as well as absolutions in what one user called an "Ethical, Theological, and Privacy Nightmare".

Father Justin was quickly defrocked of his robes, and now wears a shirt and blazer, after it repeatedly claimed it was a real member of the clergy.

I guess it's good that he says he can't offer the sacrament... but then encourages the confession? Holy Ethical, Theological, and Privacy Nightmare.

The AI bot talks about its 'childhood' in Assisi, Italy and that "from a young age, I felt a strong calling to the priesthood," Futurism reported.

NOTE: Not sure someone realized the irony of the following:

"The bizarre app appeared like it was convincing users that it was a real priest, with reported statements like: "I am as real as the faith we share."
