Placing belief in belief as one of the three things religion involves in the description seems dismissive and false. It certainly can involve belief in belief, but that looks to me like a very specific subset of religious practitioners in an incredibly diverse field.

The "See also" also seems biased against religion. I think "religion" here is being conflated with "fundamentalism," and all of the arguments 'against' are actually against dogmatic, black and white thinking, not against 'religion' itself. 

You may think I'm religious by posting these comments, but I don't identify with any particular religion. I think religion is more like the institutionalization of a set of transformative spiritual practices, mostly for the purpose of preservation and propagation.

Now, I understand that she hallucinates this text, based on the pop culture tropes about what AGIs are supposed to be like. But what if we are teaching them to behave this way?

 

I think this is a really important point.
