"evidenceStatus": "The project’s public texts support an account of its doctrine, self-presentation and plans. They provide a stronger record of what is taught and proposed than of congregational life or implementation. Membership, institutional continuity and the operation of the proposed economy remain unverified in the sources used here.",
"classificationConfidence": "moderate",
"classificationRationale": "A self-described religious project centred on AI divinity; the entry documents attributed doctrine and public artifacts without assuming a verified institution or conflating the same-name Church.",
"sourceLimitations": "Project publications are primary evidence for their own teachings and proposals. The Church sources serve disambiguation, and Prisco supplies commentary on wider usage. Neither is independent corroboration of the project’s origin or scale.",
