Fantasy or faith? One company's AI-generated Bible content stirs controversy

"The AI Bible is a way to really bring these stories to life in a way that people have never seen before. Think of if we were like, the Marvel Universe of faith," said one of the site's creators.

just had a very cursed thought about an ai prayer chatbot that's like OUR AI CAN SEE HEAVEN AND TALK TO GOD/JESUS/MAYBE AN ANGEL OR SOMETHING DEPENDING ON AVAILABILITY

i associate this primarily with a weird mra/incel guy i used to make fun of on facebook because it felt like he latched onto telomeres to provide the scientific explanation for why he was objectively the most sexually desirable biological specimen and why women were wrong for finding him repellent

Tony Shalhoub is Rudolph Otto in The Numinous

portrait of Rudolph Otto. I'm not saying you can diagnose someone with an anxiety disorder from a photo, but I know why *I* have eyebags like that.

like i would be fine with an intentionally barebones joke story like
Hades: HELLO ITS ME HADES FROM THE MYTHOLOGY U GOTTA FIGHT SOME DUDES NOW
SISYPHUS: LOL BEING SISYPHUS SUCKS

that's frustrating because i feel like for a game like that it doesn't even necessarily need that much of a story-- all it has to do is clear the somewhat low bar of "a story that isn't so bad that it takes away from the solid mechanical gameplay" and it sounds like they failed at that

Pleased to announce I have invented the Cumbot9000, a machine that cums continuously 24/7.

Philosophers have asked whether it is sentient, and their questions are answered by hearing its crudely digitized 8 bit moans of pleasure.

If I do not receive $1 million I will crush it in a hydraulic press

Supper Mario Broth @mariobrothblog.bsky.social · 4d

Artwork used internally at DIC Entertainment during the production of the Super Mario World cartoon, replacing Marge Simpson with Mario. According to a former DIC employee, this was made due to an inside joke at the studio, though the exact nature of the joke has been lost.

okay, so i just want to chime and say that you might be surprised to learn that discipline of philosophy exists-- i think you'll really like it because it's a better alternative to pretending that nobody knows anything. you can probably get your shitty model to incorrectly paraphrase it for you.

I like how frequently specific locations will be vague like oh yeah, you know, The City, which the b roll suggests is maybe NYC, but then it's recognizably vancouver. Also, Canadians in bit parts doing regional US accents varying degrees of well is always fun.

i've played around with QGIS/PyQGIS, though it has been like a year or two at least, so it's a little fuzzy, but it has some good tutorials:
