Well that's dumb. Not because we should welcome AI, but because AI is a program that runs numbers from one end of a model to the other. It looks like it is "thinking", but it is not. Input the same token and you will get the exact same set of other tokens as an output every single time. We just perceive thinking because AIs use randomness to select which of the output tokens to feed back into the next iteration of the same process. So if religion is an excuse not to use it, then this person has no place using a computer at all.
