This week we’re talking about a new app that has been developed by a pastor that has an A.I. version of himself available to respond to people and even pray for them at any time. It is, in essence, their own “personal pastor.” This may be an amazing use of technology, but is it a good idea?
STORY – Megachurch Pastor Creates A.I. Version of Himself So Congregants Can Have ‘Personalized, 1-on-1 Interactions’
“Ron Carpenter is a senior pastor of Redemption World Outreach Center in Greenville, South Carolina. According to his church bio, he is ‘recognized as a leader of leaders’ and has ‘advised, consulted, and mentored CEOs, pastors, and political leaders around the world for over two decades.’”
[…]
“Carpenter is nothing if not busy, however, and he has teased “The Ron Carpenter Ministries Advanced Archive” app which is “a unique place where people from every background, race, and walk of life come together in a place of community and purpose.”
“The app will let users “transcend traditional time and access barriers by enabling 1-on-1 personalized interactions not possible before now,” and where “Over 30 years of experience makes the voice of Pastor Ron Carpenter an invaluable asset to any leader.”
“Notably, we are told that “the software grows along with you, referencing past conversations, and personalizing responses.”
“In short, people can have their ‘own personal pastor.’” (Protestia)
Megachurch pastor creates an app with an A.I. version of himself, so congregants can have ‘personalized, 1-on-1 interactions’ with “him” 24/7 for the low fee of just $49
