People are using AI to talk to God: In 2024, an evangelist group called Catholic Answers rushed to take its chatbot priest Father Justin offline after the AI reportedly told users it was a real priest that could perform sacraments and said it would be fine to baptise a child in the soft drink Gatorade. The group soon brought the AI back online, but “defrocked” the chatbot by taking the word “Father” out of its name and removing the priests' robes from its avatar.
