AI will change religion
Yuval Noah Harari : We are going to see AI changing even things like religion. Religions which are based on texts, like Judaism, Islam and Christianity. They give ultimate reality to the text, not to any human being. Now, until today humans were nevertheless the main authority in these religions, because the texts could not speak. The Bible could not interpret itself. The Bible could not answer your questions, so you needed a human being as an intermediary. What happens when you have an AI text, that can speak for itself? No Jewish rabbi can know all the texts of Judaism, because there are too manhy of them. For the first time in history there is something on the planet that is able to remember every single word in every writing of every rabbi in the last 2000 years and talk back to you, and explain and defend its views.
