The Joint Meeting of the European Association of Biblical Studies and the Society of Biblical Literature took place in Uppsala from June 23-27, 2025. Almost 1000 theologians from all over the world came together. Schaufler Lab@TU Dresden fellow Marie Briese gave a lecture entitled “Al-Generated Depictions of the Afterlife and Their Role in Fundamentalist-Right Wing Populist Influencing by @liebezurbibel” as part of the Research Unit “Politization of Bibles and Biblization of Politics in the Twenty-First Century”, in which she was able to show which roles ChatGPT are ascribed in fundamentalist to right-wing populist argumentation and why AI-generated depictions of the afterlife support them.
