Pope Leo XIV has rejected the idea of an AI Pope, saying in an interview with biographer Eloise Allen that "if there's anybody who should not be represented by an avatar, I would say the Pope is high on the list" (first spotted by The Register). Pope Leo, who is forthright about his views on the new technology, also said that he had been asked for his authorisation to create an AI Pope

"Someone recently asked authorization to create an artificial me so that anybody could sign onto this website and have a personal audience with 'the Pope'," said the pontiff. "This artificial intelligence Pope would give them answers to their questions, and I said, 'I'm not going to authorize that'."

Brains!!

He's got brains!!

GOOD!!

( in spite of his view that Jesus's "the 2nd law is love your neighbor as your brother" doesn't apply to the alphabet-soup LGBTAgnosticAnglicanWavyhairedNordicTechno-listeningWhatever people ( I'm just being silly, catty, & fey, since if the gays have the right to be that way, then us cishet guys do too!

so THeRe, eh?

: p

There is NOTHING in the new-testament which showed that benJoseph was committed to destroying people born wired into other genders, that I know-of,

so therefore the positions of the "churches" is standing entirely on stuff that isn't of their root-guru, benJoseph,

but is in the rest of the book, which their root-guru identified as "mostly rules made by men, not G-D", in their own new-testament.

Should their root-guru return, he's promised ( Matt 24, iirc ) to return outside their churches, & we'll see how conforming-with-the-churches-he-isn't-of that he's going to be, won't we?

Should their root-guru return, that is. )

Here's their root-guru quoting Isaiah, saying that people are taking as G-D's religion rules made by men, which is exactly the point I'm trying to get known..

Pruning-out the non-universal stuff, there is actually little left, of any religion, & it's all principles, not culturally-formed-traditions..
