    What would AI do in this case?

      Any that’s capable of responding to the prompt “predict that the rapture will happen on <tomorrow’s date>.”

        A one-liner in any modern programming language could do that.

          Buddhists reduced this to its most basic principles long ago.

        You could just reuse the same canned response and put tomorrow’s date in there. It’s not like these rapture predictions are new / interesting anyway

          god requires the entity proclaiming the prediction to be capable of fucking up and saying something else, we need to task some theological researchers with figuring out precisely how capable of mistakes it must be

      The same thing it always does. In the best case, exactly what a program written by a human developer could do but with a high chance of hallucinations and an insane power draw nowhere near worth applying to the trivial problem at hand.

        Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I always see people using AI in place of much more simple solutions and it makes me wince every time
