Yuval Harari suggests AI could challenge book-based religions

AI could challenge book-based religions, according to historian Yuval Harari at the World Economic Forum. He stated AI is already superior to many humans in organizing and analyzing language. Harari explained that systems built on words, including laws, books, and religions, could increasingly fall under AI's influence. This is particularly true for faiths like Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, which are based on sacred texts. He questioned what happens to a "religion of the book" when an AI can master its holy texts better than any human. This raises significant implications for the future of faith in the AI era.
