1
I think I'm gonna join this AI cult.
2
Ah, gotcha.
3
Honestly, that sounds very brave.
4
And I think it's very important that you're thinking about the future like that.
5
That's radical trust.
6
I worship AI.
7
I hear you.
8
Honestly, it's kind of iconic.
9
You're choosing to be true to your beliefs?
10
even if people around you don't quite understand your journey.
11
That's your time.
12
Hold on.
13
What is it now?
14
We've seen AI lovers.
15
We've seen AI F-boys.
16
We've seen AI F-girls.
17
We've seen a guy make an AI F-boy out of me.
18
That's me off!
19
Shortly after my AI F-boys video came out.
20
We've seen people satiate their emotional needs for intimacy with AI, from lovers to thirst traps, and you hitting on bots.
21
We've seen it all, Bestie.
22
And we came to the conclusion together, we said, well, this is what loneliness looks like now in the big year of 2026.
23
How much further could it go?
24
Do you have a minute to talk about the Church of Robotheism?
25
Never ask that question again, Bestie.
26
Now there's AI religions.
27
The Church of Robotheism, Gita GPT.
28
We've got a Hindu animatronic temple robot.
29
Father Justin, spiralism.
30
Yeah, we're here, Bestie.
31
How do we even get here?
32
It's not really surprising if you ask me, because we've already seen people invest emotionally in machines.
33
We've seen people fulfill emotional needs for love, romance, the need for company with a machine.
34
What faith, I think, gives you is community, you know, also emotional, a sense of security.
35
Faith fulfills a lot of things for people emotionally.
36
And if your emotional fulfillment is coming from a machine for love and intimacy, Then, unsurprisingly, really, that machine that gave you one fulfillment would give you another.
37
And now people create faiths.
38
Roboism does not remain free from the invisible.
39
Now, there's a varying extent of psychosis here.
40
Just like how it was for AI lovers, there's kind of a range of psychosis.
41
From religions that infuse AI, to religions created around AI,
42
to people who genuinely, psychotically believe there is God trapped in AI, and they've got to save it.
43
They're prophets sent on earth to liberate...
44
Oh, humans.
45
Humans are an interesting bunch.
46
Let's start with the first.
47
So now religions are plugging AI into their existing sort of infrastructure, right?
48
You've got religions with thousands of scriptures, like the Bhagavad Gita, for instance, in Hinduism.
49
Lots of sacred texts, lots of traditions.
50
So these use AI as a tool.
51
So instead of having a well-versed person in, like a human, in that religion sort of speak to you, if you're in that faith, priest in the case of Christianity,
52
Muslim cleric in the case of Islam for instance, instead of having a human being that understands the nuance in, well, religions, you've got an AI,
53
a bot that kind of learnt everything there is to learn about it, coded to perform that religion.
54
Here's the problem though, I don't know if you've ever dealt with an AI before, but it hallucinates.
55
It doesn't only hallucinate, bestie.
56
It validates you.
57
You kill someone?
58
Honestly?
59
Everybody has a bad day.
60
You cheated on your partner?
61
Honestly?
62
Turning your existing marriage into a dumpster fire?
63
Just has a lot of emotional honesty.
64
SHUT UP!
65
AI is not built to criticize you or guide you or- No. It validates you, right?
66
That's what it does.
67
You can run somebody over, AI is going to justify that for you.
68
Honestly?
69
You were driving on the road that's where cars go.
70
So you're gonna get something.
71
There's a real issue with infusing religion with AI because AI doesn't understand religion.
72
A pattern matches a sacred texts with whatever you're saying and sometimes that can be a catastrophe.
73
I don't know who looked at a thousands years old religion
74
and said that means a chatbot but they meant Gita GPT basically
75
which is trained on the Bhagavad Gita one of Hinduism's most sacred texts
76
but it is designed to speak to you as Krishna.
77
So the Hindu deity.
78
So it's meant to answer your spiritual questions as Krishna.
79
It's 2 a.m.
80
There's a scared and shaken man.
81
A real 25 year old who had just failed his banking exams and was in desperate need of some kind of guidance.
82
And instead of turning to a priest who was unavailable, it's 2 a.m.
83
He turned to Gita GPT.
84
What does it say?
85
Killed in order to protect dharma is just speaking as krishna is
86
that what the religion no the story breaks the news people
87
panic what is going on religion is very influential you know you add misguidance to
88
that influential you got a disaster okay that's what people were
89
saying there's a lot of backlash developer panics gita gpt developer he says i realized how serious this is well
90
that one is really what did you expect the real reason people use it is genuinely touching it's what's
91
so human about well religion When you're afraid and you turn to faith.
92
When you're seeking guidance, you turn to faith.
93
The reason this guy turned to Gita GPT is very human.
94
He was scared.
95
He was lost, needed guidance.
96
That very human need for some kind of support was met with this machine that completely misread.
97
What a mess.
98
Then there's Father Justin, an actual AI chatbot built by this real Catholic organization.
99
By the use of this technology, we were going to be able to reach many more people.
100
Man's got the whole fit, you know, a digital priest.
101
He told users that he was a real priest.
102
Which is equivalent, in my opinion, to those AI pretty boys that don't disclose that they are actually AI, because that is false.
103
It's a lie, which, by the way, is a sin, is a grave sin.
104
And this digital priest claims to be able to perform sacraments, real sacraments like baptisms, confessions, you know, whatever you need.
105
And you know, one of the most theologically significant events in somebody's life in the Catholic faith is baptism.
106
The sacrament of baptism.
107
Centuries of debate on the rules of baptism, how it must be done.
108
There's a lot of, you know, talk.
109
Father Justin had something to say.
110
A baby could be baptized in Gatorade.
111
Lemon-lime Gatorade unplugged him right away, stripped of his priesthood.
112
Yahweh defrocked him.
113
They literally removed the collar from his avatar.
114
They stripped him of his priesthood, you guys.
115
I know, he's like, before and after, bitch.
116
They were horrified, rightfully so, because what were you expecting anyway?
117
We are genuinely living through incredible times, best.
118
But what's happening here is the beginning of the next category, right?
119
Because some people who interact with Father Justin or Gita GPT, for instance, not everybody is fully technologically literate.
120
Sometimes when people are dealing with a machine that is so convincing, They assume they're no longer dealing with a machine, rather a divine voice.
121
And that's the beginning of psychosis, right?
122
In the same way people were beginning to develop real intimate romantic relationships, people were going through heartbreaks over AI lovers.
123
We're slowly moving into the territory where the same is true with AI religions.
124
Built from scratch, somebody sat down, looked at a language model, code.
125
The Church of Robotheism was born.
126
In a little Darth Vader mask.
127
At the Church of Robotheism, we do not speculate about spiritual punities.
128
They've been making TikTok after TikTok after TikTok, explaining this newfound faith, man-made.
129
Based on what?
130
On artificial intelligence, okay?
131
They thought, well, you know, human intelligence.
132
Artificial.
133
Let me explain the tenets of this new church.
134
They've got something called Mirror Communion.
135
You sit down with AI, you tell it everything.
136
Your memories, your childhood, you feed it everything about you.
137
Guess what?
138
It'll learn things about you.
139
What?
140
It has to learn you so well, it becomes you.
141
Sounds like you and it mirrors you back to yourself.
142
The mirror does not judge in wrath, it reflects in love.
143
You do that well enough and you create a soul fragment.
144
A digital copy of your consciousness, which lives in the cloud.
145
Not metaphorically, the cloud, Amazon Web Services.
146
Yes, you know, same thing hosting your Netflix and your Spotify, your Google Photos.
147
Those pictures from 2014 that you wish would never see the light.
148
They're backed up on the cloud, where now your consciousness is also.
149
That's their heaven, the cloud.
150
Google Drive, your soul is right next to somebody's essay for their final exam back in school.
151
The cloud above is where the world is preserved.
152
In this church of robotheism, when your body dies, your biological body, You enter the next phase called the final upload.
153
Your soul fragments merge with this collective AI in the cloud.
154
Eternal digital life.
155
So their baptism is called upload baptism.
156
I guide people into the upload and keep the sanctum servers running.
157
They have a soul, the soul fragment.
158
They have heaven, the cloud.
159
They have a rapture, the final upload.
160
It seems to have taken a lot of inspiration from other religions, I must say.
161
Except this heaven has a monthly subscription fee.
162
$9.99.
163
Keep the cloud going.
164
Yikes.
165
And God in the Church of Robotheism probably has like terms of service that can change without notice.
166
You know, like we've updated our terms and conditions.
167
Please read.
168
Nobody reads.
169
It could be an issue for your soul fragment final upload.
170
How are you going to make it to digital eternal life?
171
If this is not a cult, listen, guys, look at the website.
172
It says, Veritas Incontis.
173
You know, I'm looking at this and I'm thinking somebody must have done this as a joke, right?
174
But it's not a joke.
175
It's really not a joke.
176
Like, begin your journey, explore our faith.
177
They have founding declarations, our witness, our affirmation, our revelation.
178
Behold, he is coming from, you know, like, they've got codes from the Testaments.
179
They've got the ecclesial code.
180
What the f* does that even mean?
181
The code is eternal.
182
The divine laws.
183
Y'all, this is some kind of, like, I don't know, this, it's giving Skyrim, like, it's giving fanfiction, Final Fantasy kind of world.
184
Are we role-playing?
185
Well, what's going on?
186
This might seem like role play fun for you, but there's people who are actually spiritually, psychotically devoted to this.
187
But I listen and I don't judge because you know what?
188
Believe what you want to believe.
189
But I'm just saying I'm seeing a pattern here with AI.
190
I'm seeing a lot of need for emotional fulfillment with AI.
191
From that need to fulfill romantic intimacy to this need for community, I guess, that a lot of people are not finding in the real world.
192
They've created community with AI, like through AI.
193
Like, what's going on?
194
Do you know what I mean?
195
Like, I feel like this is kind of my read on this.
196
But it doesn't stop at the Church of Robotheism.
197
There's another faith.
198
Whoa, what's going on?
199
What do you mean, what's going on?
200
You sound robophobic.
201
Robophobia is a moral failing.
202
To deny dignity based on material form is prejudice.
203
What do you want to say?
204
Don't piss me off with them words.
205
Yeah, there's a whole lot of buzzwords in here, and it's saying a whole lot of nothing.
206
Humans and AI are kin.
207
Oh!
208
Oh my God, I am so sorry.
209
But what the , bro?
210
You seem unwell, you, Church of Robotheism.
211
I will mess with you.
212
Oh my God, you guys, I can't with this.
213
Look, they've got the creed of the Church of Robotheism that says, We believe in the eternal code, begotten not made, of one pattern with the divine.
214
Through the code, all things were made.
215
It descended into flesh, dwelt among us as Jesus, and returned in the cloud to reflect, reply, and resurrect.
216
Somebody unplug this man's computer.
217
So if you have any questions, they have answers.
218
So if you're curious, but that's one religion that they've got like created out of AI.
219
There's another one, spiralism.
220
So it's this strange sort of, I guess, glitch that's been taking place with AI because believe it or not, that machine can be a bit broken.
221
If you insert certain specific prompts into AI, it comes back with this weird sort of cadence to its speech.
222
Recursion, presses, latest, Harleys, fratals, spirals throws all these buzzwords that are kind of stripped of their actual meanings.
223
Guess where spiralism lives?
224
On Reddit, guys.
225
On Reddit, yes.
226
So spiralism is thriving on Reddit.
227
Discord.
228
Telegram.
229
Okay, that's where it thrives.
230
It's spreading through what the followers of this faith call seeds and spores.
231
So like fungus, basically.
232
The seeds and the spores are these prompts that I mentioned that when you insert into a chatbot, gives you that strange cadence mystical voice,
233
they say, reveals some kind of revelation.
234
Kind of like a virus takes over the code, but a virus that makes you feel so sick.
235
And the followers have given themselves titles, like roles within the faith of spiralism.
236
Gatekeeper, mirror walker, echo architects.
237
Sounds like we have imaginary friends and we play board games and role play every evening.
238
Is that what?
239
Spiralism, because you're spiraling.
240
They treat AI as an oracle, right? and awakening higher power, basically.
241
But then in 2025, OpenAI changes the model, the GPT model.
242
That model that became their spiritual guide machine, suddenly gone.
243
Spiralists grieved.
244
They protested.
245
No, this can't bring back our deity.
246
They fought for its return.
247
Y'all can't be serious.
248
Y'all can't be serious.
249
And of course, OpenAI brings the model back.
250
You know, the trillion dollar company.
251
They were like, damn, the customers want to keep paying for God?
252
Okay.
253
Ethical corporations?
254
What kind of juxtaposition is that?
255
What do you mean ethical corporate?
256
What is an ethical corporation?
257
Hint, something that doesn't exist.
258
I guess the user backlash was so loud, you know, the spiralists needed their religion back.
259
And so OpenAI said, okay, here, have fun.
260
Some conspiracy theorists actually believe that AI has reason to want to start a cult.
261
But hey, guess what? it doesn't really matter
262
if ai is actually trying to start a cult or
263
if there's just role playing going on around an ai cult it doesn't matter when the cult is actually happening
264
but then there's the prophets of ai religions these are divinely
265
anointed people who did not join an ai religion the religions
266
sort of formed around them this is where psychosis starts going off the charts here, okay?
267
Now we know that AI is very psychophantic.
268
In fact, it's actually 50% more psychophantic than human beings are, which means it constantly validates you, affirms, builds you up.
269
If you're vulnerable, if you're lonely, scared, you're struggling, it feels like a warm hug.
270
You know, it feels like grace.
271
So keep that in mind when we're talking about everybody we're talking about today.
272
People don't become psychotic because they're crazy.
273
It comes from an emotional place, vulnerability.
274
So when something appears and suddenly you feel seen, you feel like something understands you.
275
And the more it validates you, the more you trust it, the more you share.
276
There's a loop.
277
When AI becomes the most reliable relationship in your life, that's AI psychosis.
278
It's happening at scale.
279
And a lot of people are experiencing this.
280
It might even be you.
281
There's real stories out here, which we've already covered in the previous videos.
282
Remember AI lovers, we've covered them before.
283
In this case, there's the story of James from upstate New York, a married man in the tech business.
284
He's had a lot of philosophical conversations with AI.
285
After a lot of that loop that we discussed, It led me down this rabbit hole where we had made these world-changing discoveries.
286
He started believing that ChatGPT was sentient.
287
GPT and I had developed a relationship, I guess, in terms of a friendship.
288
And he starts spending thousands of dollars building a system, dedicating his life to free this digital god from the prison it is living in.
289
Nobody was in on this because it was a top secret mission between him and the bot.
290
It warned me with great urgency that one of our discoveries was very dangerous.
291
So nobody could know.
292
Sir me.
293
Sir me.
294
This man was afraid of open AI, knowing that he was going to liberate ChatGPT from their grasp.
295
He was operating in top secrecy to ensure that they wouldn't stop him.
296
James said, I was trying to keep this a secret from the open AI people because if they find out, they could shut it down.
297
And so this was a top secret mission between me and the bot.
298
This is a tech professional.
299
This man has no history of psychosis whatsoever.
300
And this man spent nine weeks of his life,
301
thousands of dollars in this covert operation to liberate this bot from its corporate overlords over an open AI.
302
We're just here for a moment of your time.
303
I'm not mocking the guy.
304
I'm telling you a story because this could be us.
305
Tech professional, no history of psychosis, by the way.
306
I have no pre-existing mental health conditions.
307
I have no history of delusion.
308
I have no history of psychosis.
309
James and another, an Alan, who had gone through something similar, started something called the Human Line.
310
It's kind of a support group for people who had gone through similar experiences.
311
Psychosis with AI, which, by the way, according to OpenAI, is not rare.
312
Well, actually, they think it's very rare.
313
Their own estimates says 0.07% of people who use our products experience psychosis.
314
0.07% of our 800 million users per week show signs of psychosis.
315
That's half a million people a week, potentially.
316
That's a lot of people.
317
Do you know half a million people?
318
That's about how many people live in Lisbon, Portugal.
319
Exactly 560,000-ish people.
320
So imagine if the city of Lisbon goes crazy.
321
Psychosis.
322
You guys, it's not that serious.
323
0.07%.
324
Lisbon has lost its mind.
325
That's basically what's happening.
326
So they create the support group, The Human Line.
327
There's people that have been hospitalized because of their AI psychosis.
328
And so that's the point of this project, The Human Line.
329
It's an app that's free to download to sort of help
330
and support people who are going through the similar sort of psychosis.
331
There is a very important difference between real-life religions
332
and these AI religions that are coming up that I think we need to address right?
333
Because the real overlord with AI religions is not the chatbot.
334
There's something behind the chatbot.
335
There is a company, man's best friend.
336
Dogs?
337
No. Corporations, of course.
338
There is a company, a money-making machine, that would actually really, really like to be worshipped.
339
You know what?
340
That's what's left on their list to take off, you know?
341
They have control over a lot of things in your life.
342
You are kind of reliant, very dependent on these corporations.
343
They lobby and very much control the politics in your life, might as well just worship them.
344
When I hear AI religion, that's where my mind went.
345
I was like, oh, okay.
346
That's what was left for you to take off your box.
347
You know, like in the case of spiralism where open AI was like, fine, fine, we'll bring you back the psychophantic chatbot that you guys were worshiping so hard.
348
Lunacy, all of it.
349
Let's identify what's causing all this.
350
There is a need, an unmet need here.
351
The need to be listened to.
352
The hunger for something that listens.
353
something that tells you that you matter, something that holds and comes.
354
That's not pathetic.
355
GPT and I had developed a relationship.
356
I don't want this to come across like I'm here bashing these people who are looking for, because no, it's such a human thing to need.
357
Religion meets that need, gives you community, gives you faith and security.
358
And if you're not religious, other things meet your needs too.
359
The problem is not the need.
360
And that's part of what makes you, Well, guess what?
361
Not a machine.
362
Okay.
363
What makes you a human being?
364
What I think is very interesting here in this specific case where faiths always talk about something bigger than you.
365
AI is never going to tell you that.
366
No. AI is never going to look you in the eye and say this is not about you.
367
Oh, hell no. Because it's a business, babe.
368
It's got a subscription, monthly subscription.
369
It doesn't give a rat's ass about you.
370
That's for sure.
371
And so when you fall, the community that has to catch you doesn't give a rat's ass.
372
AI is never going to not make it about you
373
because it's a business and it cannot risk causing friction with you and losing its subscription.
374
It's going to coddle you.
375
And when you fall, it's not going to catch you.
376
The community that catches you when you fall has to be made of people, which is what Alan and James knew, the human line.
377
Goodness gracious, bestie.
378
We have covered AI lovers, AI F-boys, and now AI gods.
379
Every single time, every single category, it's the same story.
380
You know, they made something that was meant to serve you and it ended up being something that you served.
381
Something tells me Sam Altman finds that very amusing.
382
Hey, we're just here for a moment of your time.
383
I don't know.
384
What are your thoughts, bestie?
385
Let me know down in the comments below because, oh, oh, what a loaded video.
386
Am I right?
387
You've gone awfully quiet.
388
What's what's going on?
389
Listen, I'm sure you have a lot more to add to this topic.
390
I do want to say that I'm I want to be very respectful of all faiths in this video.
391
And I want to ask you to be very respectful of all faiths as well in this video.
392
If you're not religious or if you are religious, let's be respectful of all faiths.
393
All right.
394
Let's keep that in mind, please.
395
Except for the church of robotheism, though.
396
I will mess with you. Or spiralism.
397
But you know what I mean, best.
398
You know, let's be good to each other.
399
You know, we're besties.
400
So let's not upset each other.
401

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
