What one Finnish church learned from creating a service almost entirely with AI.
What one Finnish church learned from creating a service almost entirely with AI.
St. Paul’s Lutheran church in Helsinki has held the first church service in Finland created mostly by artificial intelligence.
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.
Big "y tho" response from me
Churches are profit machines, but they have to pay a preacher. The electricity for running an AI is probably less than the preachers salary
Churches gonna church
It brought in 120 people, many of whom wouldn't have otherwise come. Probably made some good donation money out of it and got some publicity for the church.
From Matthew 24:
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
