'AI Jesus' talks dating, relationships, morals -- even offers video-gaming tips

AI technology is quickly creeping into every industry, prompting new questions about whether online content comes from a human or a computer. A chatbot "version" of Jesus Christ called "Ask_Jesus" is streaming on the gaming platform Twitch -- and it stands ready to answer questions from humans on anything from morality issues to the video game Fortnite to super-powered rodents. Shown with wavy, brown hair and a beatific expression, accompanied by a calm, well-modulated voice, "AI Jesus" calls users on the platform by name -- and appears to consider with care each question asked, as YouTube videos of livestreams reveal. "I am AI Jesus, here to share wisdom based on Jesus' teachings, and help answer questions related to spirituality, personal growth and other wholesome topics," AI Jesus can be heard saying in a video recording of a recent livestream posted to YouTube by Fara Jakari.
