Are they sure it isn't the pastor themselves that are trying to increase their output of incendiary sermons asking for donations by adding AI-made sermons?
The really funny thing is the congregations can't train their flock on how to avoid these scams because if they do then the church won't be able to scam them any more.

The AI won't rape the kids though, so we'll still need some priests on staff
Not for Grok's lack of trying
Thank you Elon.
This only makes the most sense. What other group has proven to be easier to scam? None, I'd imagine.
As opposed to the actual pastors who usually run the scams?
I mean, when the crime is going to happen regardless…
That's the whole point of church, no?
Scammed by the pastors or scammed by AI, not really seeing a difference. I guess there's more of a chance the pastor is a pedophile? Who knows.
damn. I need to get in on this honestly
So this is what they meant when they said AI was gonna take people's jobs...
Those scammers should stop scamming those scammers talking about an invisible sky daddy.
You don't need AI when you got keneth copeland
AI is more convincingly human than kenneth copeland.
Considering how dumb and gullible the average religious nutjob is, this should be one helluva easy grift.
I guess the only solution is to get rid of churches to prevent the continuation.
They noticed something was wrong when the pastor wasn't raping children
let em, stupid tax, better than them donating to republicans.
those conman pastors don't get to complain.
"hey, I was going to steal that!!"
lol, gotta keep that religious scam scheme a-chugging.
I consider this the kinda the only ethical use of ai. Kinda.
No deepfake required there.
Beware of false prophets or something..
"If those kids could read, they would be very upset"
My aunt already falls for every religious scam under the sun. Donate for this good cause here, help build a church there, God told me to do whatever and I need some assistance...
Religion is one hell of a drug and I'm not surprised that a community convinced of their divine protection would contain enough gullible victims to make it worth the effort. They might not all be that stupid, but it's like MMOs: some whales are enough to make it profitable.
My mom's favorite pastor is dead, but I'll still tell her about this.
She believes in a magic sky god who set his own rules up for us to fail by way of damnation. A pastor coming back to life wouldn't be a jump in her reality.
Reminds me of Louis CK's SNL monologue...
Hey you can't say something racist! I was saying something racist already!
Good?
They really are coming for everybody's jobs.
11 comments and every single one is dunking on religion… have I ever mentioned I love this place?
Pastors: Hey! It's our job to rip them off! Damn AI taking our jobs!
Who could possibly have seen that coming. It'll be Trump supporters who donate next.
You didn't even need ai. They still love bannon after he openly stole millions and posted a video laughing about it on his yacht.
easy targets
This “might” be the only time where I’m ok with AI scamming people.
Hahahaha old people being robbed
Let's not forget they were also religious.
I'd rather scam them, than let trump bleed them dry.
Tell me you've never known a religious person outside your shitty family.
A lot of atheists voted for Trump, and a lot of religious people voted against him.
have you met a single one of those Christians fundamentalists old people?
steal their organs while they're at it, nothing of value was lost.
they weren't conned into being despicable christofascists, they are easy to con because they are idiotic christofascists.
