mormons have seeded all the bad shit from Silicon Valley.

@violetmadder @cmdrmoto @blogdiva yeah it sure puts a spin on the "be fruitful and multiply, IN SPACE" vibe of Speaker for the Dead

@i_give_u_worms usually these “reports” are regurgitated press releases ―and that has been a thing way before this slopped era.
@blogdiva excellent point, strongly agree

@violetmadder right?!?!? i immediately recognized it because i fucking hate it. it was everywhere during our homeschooling years (tl;dr homeschooled the guys as a consequence of 9/11 and the mess left in our local schools).

mormons have seeded all the bad shit from Silicon Valley. i call the LDS church a #techbros investment bank with a christofascist cult side hustle. there is no Ancestry.com without LDS money and "christogenetics".
do this: peruse any illustrated Book of Mormon printed before 2010. then look at any #aislopped image. you cannot unsee it. it’s the same with the jehova’s witness Watchtower magazine. the Midjourney aesthetics is christofascist.
the mormon rapture will be #AI generated.
@blogdiva Paywalled, but relevant — though about evangelicals. A quote: “PJ Accetturo… noted on X that there’s a “massive gap in the market: AI Bible story films. Demand is huge. Supply is almost zero. Audiences aren’t picky about fidelity—they just want more.” Accetturo also said he’s working on his own AI-generated Bible video for a different publisher about the story of Jonah.”
Why Do Christians Love AI Slop?
Why is so much AI slop about Jesus and the Bible, and why do Christians appear to love it?

@blogdiva I've said this elsewhere, but I had a huge book of Bible stories for children (1960s era) and it was that level of gooey, smarmy illustration. VERY slick. And I know it's still in my head.
Before AI, the late Thomas Kinkade hit a similar sweet-spot for soft generic Christians with his "light"-filled paintings. He was semi-local in my part of California, took over a historic house that was a Mexican restaurant, made it a gallery. Bleahh.

@kmck @blogdiva I fully believe in the right to and from religion, that being said I think it at one time feeds into the same mechanisms fast foods use with colors to affect the brain coupled with a reinforcement visually of the general vibe that Christians have when doing activities that often get used in place of critical assessment i.e. having a rock show or worship that instills uncritical belief, obedience and cultural expectations/acceptance. Which can be really dangerous.
