In around 2011 or 2012, I worked as an MSP engineer and one of the clients was a large mega church. The pastor used software that basically wrote his sermons for him - it would pick the verses that matched the themes he wanted to cover, referenced past sermons to make sure it's not pulling the same quotes over and over, and pulled in common interpretations preprogrammed into its library.
I can't imagine how worse it has become. No soul left in the grift.
Scammers aren't even writing their own scams anymore. It's ChatGPT all the way down.
