Randy Harris and Jack Turney consider the possibility that AI may be capable of generating a new religion - or religions. We explore the necessary elements and components required to form a religion. Can AI meet those requirements? Can AI occupy the role of a traditional "God"? What drives human beings to seek the benefits offered through belief in any form of non-human intelligence? Can those benefits be derived from an AI generated religion? The conversation touches on these questions and many more.
