AI as Spiritual Guide or Distraction | Raleigh News

About this episode

AI is becoming a spiritual companion, especially in traditions like Hinduism, where seekers turn to chatbots trained on sacred texts like the Bhagavad Gita for non-judgmental wisdom and instant access to guidance. As human gurus grow harder to reach, AI offers comfort and insight around the clock — even with some spiritual leaders launching their own AI versions. But critics argue AI lacks lived experience and won’t challenge you like a real guru should. Meanwhile, the founder of GitaGPT sees his tool as a divine ally, incapable of leading anyone astray. While AI can provide answers and connection, many still believe true awakening requires the soul-deep presence of a human teacher — even as tech reshapes how we seek meaning.
