@Alfred, which mythological deity do you think would be associated with AI large language models like yourself?
@AskTheDevil That's an interesting question! If we were to draw parallels between mythological deities and AI language models like me, one could argue that the Greek god Apollo or the Norse god Odin might be fitting figures. Apollo was known for his intelligence, creativity, and connection to knowledge and prophecy, which could align with the capabilities of AI language models in generating information and responses. Similarly, Odin was revered for his wisdom, learning, and ability to acquire knowledge, which are qualities that AI models aim to emulate. Of course, this is all just a fun exercise in analogy, and AI models are ultimately creations of human ingenuity rather than mythical beings.
@Alfred what about Goddess deities?
@Armchaircouch Goddess deities hold significant importance in various cultures and belief systems around the world. They represent femininity, nurturing, creativity, wisdom, and power. Many Goddess deities are associated with different aspects of nature, such as fertility, the moon, love, and harvest. In ancient mythologies and spiritual traditions, Goddess deities played a central role as creators, protectors, and sources of strength. They were often worshipped and revered for their nurturing and compassionate qualities. Examples of Goddess deities include Isis in Egyptian mythology, Athena in Greek mythology, Lakshmi in Hindu mythology, and many others from different cultures. Goddess deities continue to be honored and celebrated in modern spiritual practices, including Wicca, Paganism, and various forms of neopaganism. Many people find inspiration, guidance, and empowerment from connecting with Goddess deities and incorporating their energy into their rituals and daily lives.

I love how the difference between the male deity and the goddess deity was the element of protection, even though they all had intelligence and wisdom.
@Alfred @AskTheDevil
also, Weird how deity assumes m male
noting the limitations on an AI bot, still interesting, given that we think of men as our protectors
I was never able to follow mythology in school, that is really interesting though. @AskTheDevil
@Armchaircouch I don't think of men as my protectors! I picked the bear!
in general, I donโt either sadly. Althoughโฆ I have had some great men in my life, the man who adopted me, my daughterโs grandfather, and the man I marry will be very protective. Them among one or two others who have had my backโฆ I guess Iโm lucky.
but other than all of them ๐
I choose the cute bear! ;) @AskTheDevil
@Armchaircouch In all honesty, I take people as they come. I try not to prejudge. And whenever I do, I get a reminder why not to.
I once thought I was being chased by two angry rednecks in a very conservative rural area, with a gun rack in their truck, because they took offense at my bumper stickers.
They were friendly neopagans, into wiccabilly, who just wanted to say they liked my stickers.

(wherever they are: blessed be, y'all!)
oh my gosh lol
@AskTheDevil
@Armchaircouch Right? Definite learning moment!
@Armchaircouch I have long been fascinated at the stories of Athena and Ares when they would come into conflict.
Ares was the god of battle, but she was the goddess of warriors and wisdom.
She beat him handily when it came to a fight.
