Using robot in religious context

Some of the reasons for using robots in religious contexts maybe ato attract more people to religion.

It can also provide spiritual guidance or comfort when human priests are unavailable, to explore theological or ethical questions, or to enhance the emotional experience of religious practice.

However, some have argued that there are also some challenges and risks, such as making religion feel too mechanized or homogenized, or challenging core tenets of theology.

Robot Pastor weds new couple in church

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that an Oyinbo couple had a unique and futuristic wedding ceremony where they were married by an artificial intelligence-powered chatbot named ChatGPT.

The robot, which was developed by an AI research company called Open AI, spoke through a speaker with a robotic mask on top of it, and delivered a personalized and eloquent speech to celebrate the couple's love, People reported.

Reece Alison Wiench and Deyton Truitt chose to use the chatbot as their officiant because Colorado does not require any licensed marriage official to perform a wedding ceremony, as long as both partners agree.
