Episode 33 - AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies - Part 2: Channeling the Sildarnactarian
We're going down the rabbit hole again, inspired by a recent Rolling Stone (and a way-better New York Times) article about people losing loved ones to AI-fueled spiritual fantasies. This time, ChatGPT translates some glossolalia from beings so ancient that they have existed before time began. Fire up the Manthan Beacon, fools, because things are fixin' to stir beneath the veil.
