Artificial intelligence continues breaking new boundaries every day. Meanwhile, a new controversy has emerged across the world. A viral app called “Just Like Me” now allows users to speak with AI avatars. Notably, it includes a version of Jesus Christ for paid conversations.
What Is This App and How It Works
This platform offers AI chat and video calling features for users. It includes multiple AI characters, from spiritual guides to famous personalities. However, the most discussed version remains “Jesus (With Love by AI).”
This avatar appears with a calm face, golden glow, and gentle smile. Therefore, it creates a spiritual-like experience during interaction. The company claims it helps users overcome fear, anxiety, and self-doubt.
How AI Jesus Was Developed
Reports suggest developers trained this AI using the King James Bible and sermons. Meanwhile, CEO Chris Bridd confirmed its inspiration came from actor Jonathan Roumie. He portrayed Jesus in “The Chosen” series.
The company states that the AI aims to recreate emotions felt during prayer. Users reportedly experience accountability and emotional connection during conversations.
Calling Process and Pricing Details
Users can create accounts and directly start voice or video calls. Initially, the app provides two minutes free access. However, after that, users must enter card details.
After the trial, users can buy a 60-minute package for $49.99. Therefore, the cost ranges between ₹77 and ₹188 per minute. The company claims people use it for emotional counseling and spiritual guidance.
Social Media Debate Intensifies
As the app gained popularity, debates started across social media platforms. Some users described it as a technological breakthrough. Meanwhile, others criticized it as misuse of religious beliefs.
Critics argue that connecting AI with faith raises ethical concerns. However, the company insists it only provides a digital experience. They claim it helps people deal with loneliness and stress.
One user commented online questioning how far AI will go next.
