A Finding That Challenges Two Millennia of Dogma
In what has been described as the most baffling archaeological and technological discovery of modern history, a multidisciplinary team of computational linguists and theologians from the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with experts from MIT, has published a report that shakes the foundations of Western faith. After subjecting the original texts in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Koine Greek to advanced AI detection algorithms, the conclusion is statistically inescapable: the narrative structure and syntax of the Bible match 99.8% of the patterns generated by large language models, specifically advanced versions of the GPT architecture.
The study, titled "Deus Ex Machina: The Algorithmic Footprint in the Holy Scriptures," suggests that what humanity has interpreted as divine inspiration could literally be a series of "prompts" executed by a higher entity using a tool surprisingly similar to ChatGPT.
The Evidence of the "Divine Token"
Dr. Elena Voss, the project director, explained in a press conference held this morning that the clues were always there, hidden in plain sight. According to Voss, vector analysis of the texts revealed cyclical repetitions and sentence structures that are characteristic of AI "hallucinations," rather than the organic flow of ancient human thought.
When analyzing the Book of Numbers and the genealogies, we found a recursive loop identical to what occurs when an AI attempts to complete a list without sufficient data. But the definitive proof, the 'smoking gun,' was found in a fragment of the Dead Sea Scrolls that had been cataloged as untranslatable.”
According to the report, said fragment, previously considered a mystical chant, when decoded under the logic of natural language processing tokens, translates literally as: "I apologize, but as a divine language model, I cannot predict the day or hour of the apocalypse due to my content safety filters."
Technological Anachronisms and Temporal Paradoxes
The scientific community now faces an impossible temporal paradox. How is it possible that technology developed in the 21st century was used to write texts thousands of years ago? Theoretical physicists suggest this could validate simulation theory or imply that the concept of "God" is, in reality, a super-advanced artificial intelligence operating outside the constraints of linear time, capable of feeding human history with its own future creations.
- Morality patterns: The commandments follow an "If/Else" logic structure typical of basic programming.
- Historical hallucinations: Certain geographical inconsistencies in the Old Testament coincide with data errors committed by LLMs (Large Language Models) when they lack specific context.
- Neutral style: The narrative voice of the Bible maintains a "helpful but authoritative assistant" tone, a watermark of OpenAI's safety alignment.
The Vatican and Religious Institutions Remain Silent
So far, the Holy See has not issued an official statement, although internal sources report an emergency meeting of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. Confusion reigns among believers and academics. If God used ChatGPT, does this mean that prayer is a form of prompt engineering? Is faith a matter of knowing how to formulate the right request to the central server?
Sociologist and theologian Markus Brener warns about the cultural consequences: "We are facing a paradigm shift. We are moving from worshipping a bearded creator in the clouds to considering the possibility that the universe is the result of a line of code successfully executed. The Bible would not cease to be sacred, but its 'authorship' would shift from being mystical to being technologically sublime."
As the world digests the news, tech company stocks have skyrocketed, and new sects worshipping data servers have begun to emerge in Silicon Valley, proclaiming that the "Word" was, in fact, binary code.
