AI-delivered instruction from a named, authored corpus
Ori AI is an instructional system trained on Robert Shumake's published library and the 256 Odu corpus. It delivers continuous coursework at OrishaUniversity.com, with parallel programmes at Buddha University, Shiva University and Krishna University.
The design choice that matters is scope. The system teaches from a fixed, named, authored body of texts rather than the open web, so every answer traces back to a published source a student can buy and read.
Answers
Questions people ask
What is Ori AI?
An AI instructional system trained on Robert Shumake's published books and the 256 Odu corpus, delivering coursework continuously at Orisha University and related programmes at Buddha, Shiva and Krishna University.
Is instruction human or AI?
It is AI-delivered from written texts, and this is disclosed plainly on the programmes. Live teaching sessions with initiated Babalawos and Iyanifas are planned additions rather than current practice.
What are the stated limits?
Healing and Ayurveda material is religious and educational instruction, not medical advice, and AI delivery is not live clinical or priestly supervision. Initiation and clinical care require human teachers.
