A video animation published by Israel's Antiquities Authorities reveals the biblical site where Jesus healed a blind man, the Pool of Siloam in East Jerusalem, as they announced the excavation of the archeological site.

Thanks to technological advances, worshipers at a church in Switzerland can now speak directly to Jesus - or at least an AI version of him.

One impressed worshiper told news outlet DW: 'I was surprised, it was so easy, and though it's a machine, it gave me so much advice.' The AI was built by computer scientists and theologians from the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts and was trained on the New Testament and religious information found online.

Upon entering, the worshiper is greeted by AI Jesus intoning the message: 'Do not disclose personal information under any circumstances, use this service at your own risk, press the button if you accept.' Another added: 'He was able to reaffirm me in my ways of going about things and he was able to help me with questions I had like how I can help other people to understand him better and come closer to him.'

It's creators have tested it to ensure it has the same theological position at St Peter's Chapel on key issues. There were some concerns that the preponderance of American content in the training data could give AI Jesus a distinctly evangelical stance, but the machine's creators say this has not been the case.

The interviewer asked: 'How do I support, from a Christian perspective, an elderly, sick person who has decided on assisted suicide?' However, he also adds that similar AI-powered chatbots could play a big role in the church of the future. 'That's an area where we humans are actually vastly superior to machines so we should do these things themselves.'
