I wouldn't be a bit surprised should a serious religion spring up that worships the concept of a GAI, and in fact may as a part of that worship, work toward implementing it. I am really surprised that Mentifex hasn't started such a cult himself already! /or maybe he has, and it's a cult of one member only...?
A GAI? What is that? Do you mean Gaia?

Personally I worship Lain Iwakura, the one true electric god.
Blasphemy! Lord Raiden is the only true electric god!

Wait a second...wouldn't having sex among themselves only serve to redistribute the power more evenly among the group? To increase their power and gain immortality wouldn't they need to be having sex with Jesus?
BTW, according to Wikipedia: "The Oneida Community dissolved in 1881, and eventually became the giant silverware company Oneida Limited". No mention of liquid Jesus electricity in the Wikipedia article. Googling for it only turns up a few mentions, and they all or almost all seem to stem from one article.
> [...] the Oneida Community of New York. Founded by John Humphrey Noyes in 1848, the Protestant commune believed that Jesus Christ’s power was a form of liquid electricity that could be transmitted to believers through touch. As the most intimate form of touch is sex, the group also believed that, if they had enough of it, they’d create a spiritual battery that would make them immortal and create heaven on earth. So…
Actually, Oneida had a commitmee of elder woman. You applied to the committee to have sex with someone one time, and they could approve or deny you. (This was designed to prevent forming couples, slow down the amount of sex, eugenics to make perfect humans, and make sure the founder got all he wanted). Oneida, while not monogamous, was pretty far from a sex fest (unless you were the cult leader).
Given how wrong the article is on Oneida, and that's the only one I know about, I'm suspicious of the rest of it.
Here's a great (long) article on Oneida:

In a few decades, we will add cryptocurrencies adepts and their many mining cults to this list.
I can see the descendants of bitcoin millionaires starting a cult and referring to their founder as the prophet of profit.
