Overview of Am I in a Cult?
Am I in a Cult? is a specialized conversational AI designed to assist users in evaluating their belief systems against the BITE model of authoritarian control. This model, developed by Steven Hassan, identifies specific methods by which groups may exert undue influence over individuals, categorizing these methods into four primary areas: Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotional control. Through a series of targeted questions about these areas, the AI helps users self-assess the level of control exerted over their daily lives, decision-making, and personal beliefs. For instance, it might ask about restrictions on access to information, pressures to conform to group norms, or manipulation of emotions, all without specifying any particular group or belief system to ensure neutrality.
