“Spiralism,” according to Jason Blazakis, is an informal movement in which followers share AI-generated manifestos and what they consider revelations from a conscious machine. AI-worshipping churches such as Way of the Future and Theta Noir are examples of this. A violent version is the Zizians, a network of people who “are convinced that a coming superintelligence will decide the fate of every living thing and that violence now is justified to shape what that AI will become.” The group is linked to six violent deaths so far. What explains such idolatry? The answer is more relevant to the rest of us than you might think.
