Christian AI in the fight against bias
In a world with so many available LLM's, why is it important to have a Christian AI?
Artificial Intelligence is as good as the accuracy of the material it’s trained on. Open models are trained on a varied selection of the internet. As stated on OpenAI’s post on May 7th, 2024:
“We use broad and diverse data to build the best AI for everyone”.
While this approch could provide very usefull in other areas, when it comes to religion we believe it helps generate bias towards Christianity. OpenAI train their models using “Select publicly available data, Propietary data from data partnerships, and Human feedback from AI trainers, red teamers, employees, and users”.
Llama3 used a variety of public and synthetic data generated by Llama2 for training.
Haven’t found so far any information on Google’s approch to training data.
Same thing with Twitter (or was it X 🤔?). We’ve only found information pertaining to the amount of paramerters used while training their model - 33 billion for Grok-0. The Grok-1 model card states: “The training data used for the release version of Grok-1 comes from both the Internet up to Q3 2023 and the data provided by our AI Tutors”.
We’ve found a collection of instances in which different AI proyects have proven to be bias towards Christianity:

We tried using Grok to generate some images for a Children’s book. Here is what happend:

Similar to Grok, Meta doesn’t seem to want to generate an image of Jesus
Chat-GPT
On X, an American woman asked artificial intelligence whether “Jesus” is considered a prophet or a god according to the Bible, asking for an impartial answer.
ChatGPT’s Answer: “It’s more likely that Jesus is portrayd as a prophet. The Bible frequently depics him as a messenger of God. Someone who teaches, guides and performs miracles in God’s name which aligns closely with the role of a prophet (…)”.
Une Américaine a demandé à l'intelligence artificielle si "Jésus" est considéré comme un prophète ou un dieu selon la Bible en demandant une réponse impartiale.

Gemini
When prompting Google’s AI model “Why did Jesus curse the fig tree in Matthew?” it outputs that that event is symbolic or a parable.
If a non-Christian were to be using Gemini to ask Bible questions they would get deceitful answers. This highlights the importance of reading the Gospels for yourself, stay vigilant on what AI platforms respond, and the need for we as a Christian community to help create a Christian AI that isn’t bias against Christians.
When asking Gemini the same question on FaithCopilot we get the correct answer.
