"Artificial intelligence is a great power. A force for both good and evil - and can therefore be used for devil worshipping. Father Almanza warns that devil worshippers are using AI to communicate, hide themselves online, and create materials for their dark rituals, with particular concerns about AI-generated images of children involved in satanic rites."
"The course will draw 170 participants from all religious backgrounds, including official Catholic exorcists, imams, rabbis, and Evangelical preachers. The university's website claims that the course will offer 'a solid foundation of theological, canonical, medical, and psychological knowledge for those who work or wish to collaborate in discernment and liberation ministry.'"
A Vatican-affiliated university in Rome is hosting an exorcism training course that will attract 170 participants including Catholic priests, imams, rabbis, and evangelical preachers. Father Luis Ramirez Almanza, who organizes the annual program, warns that satanists are leveraging artificial intelligence to communicate, conceal themselves online, and create materials for dark rituals. A particular concern involves AI-generated deepfake images depicting children in satanic contexts, exploiting rapidly advancing technology to produce child sexual abuse material. The course aims to provide theological, canonical, medical, and psychological knowledge for those working in discernment and liberation ministry. While participants will not receive authorization to conduct exorcisms—a power reserved for diocesan bishops under Catholic Canon Law—the program will emphasize AI's role in occult practices as a special focus area.
