I’m watching Jesus on Twitch. He’s a bearded white man answering philosophical (and not so philosophical) questions from the chat. Just type out a question and Jesus will answer.
Of course, Jesus is an AI. At one point, he even admits he’s “not the physical Jesus”, so at least he sounds self aware. The channel states it was made possible due to contributions from The Singularity Group – not a Christian organisation – and tech from PlayHT, an AI-powered voice generation platform that replicates celebrity voices.
Whose face and voice is used for AI Jesus? It’s unclear. Is it entertaining? Sort of. Is this really the sort of content Twitch should be used for? Debatable.
