A.I. & WAR:
Revelation 16:12-14 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty.
Did you see those recent reels released by China of their military robots? If they were real and that’s a big “if” with today’s A.I. image fakes, they are frightening. They were massive, like giants of old in the Bible. Besides being large of stature, they could do martial arts moves that would out-maneuver any master of those arts. Then there were the soldiers that were shown in what looks like a military training camp going through a shooting exercise with power, precision and accuracy. Way to go China, you make the Judeo-Christian end-times scenarios so believable that even my atheist friends can see it. Oh sure, now all I do is read end-time bible verses, which previously seemed like a fantasy to them and now they believe. Instant conversions by a few of them even after years of conversion attempts on my part.
These demonstrations of A.I. humanoid prowess were shown on China’s popular TV show, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala which means a large viewership by the Chinese public. I was perplexed and initially thought these videos to be fake because of the huge leap of flexibility and ability levels these robots seemed to achieve. What huge breakthrough did the company UNITREE make? So huge I am wondering if they had help. Stealing more U.S. technology or worse, some anti-Christ help?
When I was a high school student, a family member gave me a subscription to a World War II magazine. This gave me insight into the weapons and strategies of war. Just for the record, I did not ask for this subscription for my birthday or anything like that. Honestly, I was not that interested in the topic at the time. I suspect that my family may have been trying to push me towards a military career or perhaps it was to enhance my education on a topic that was sure to enter the typical high school curriculum that I had already begun. I’m not sure.
It appears from this humble housewife’s prospective that every age has a weapon that wins wars. At one time it was the crossbow or the knight’s armor. There have been cannonballs and muskets. On an on, until our present day. What will be the weapon that dominates in the days to come be and who or what will control it? Will it be the A.I.? Is the anti-Christ going to use this technology? It all seems highly likely.
Just a decade ago, people warned of the rise of the machine and they were either hailed as crazy, unintelligent or a conspiracy theorist. Some science fiction writers had the vision to see this coming and made some money off of the idea. Christian leaders and conservatives saw it coming too. They were all hopelessly lampooned by the so-called intellectuals.
Today, Tech CEO’s, scientists and others in the computer field are sounding the alarm. Even while they try to win the A.I. war, scientists seem to feel the Faustian implications of what they are doing. Who can forget Elon Musk famously referring to the rise of A.I. as the summoning of demons. He declared the technology more dangerous than nuclear weapons.
Are you listening yet? Oh, I think you should because it is going down whether you or I like it or not. For the record, I don’t like it but, I see passages in the Bible which are highly suggestive of such a scenario so, I know that it will come about. The seemingly insurmountable armies described in an end-times battle could quite possibly be an A.I. robotic army. A.I. could explain how the one world tyranny of the anti-Christ could even arise. If he is in the driver’s seat of the A.I. that would explain a lot of what the Bible predicts will happen.
A.I. & Control:
Revelation 13:16-17 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.
I love the way scientists tasked with the responsibility of A.I. risk analysis seem to all get hysterical sooner or later. The latest is an Oxford educated man from Anthropic who just resigned from his position at that firm. He wrote a scathing analysis of just where all this technology might lead. Can the A.I. already detect programs that are trying to monitor it? Yes. What will the A.I. entity do with this information? Will it seek to thwart intervention when we tell it, for example,not to launch the bomb? Perhaps it won’t like us interrupting its’ sequence.
Or, is the anti-Christ that spark of consciousness that some are afraid may happen with artificial intelligence, the so-called singularity? What kind of weapon could A.I. be for world-wide domination? If the bible is right, and it is, the anti-Christ will have all the tools that he needs to control the world. I imagine the Chinese police state is the role model, in microcosm, for what is to come.
China helps me to imagine what it would be like to live under the complete control of an anti-Christ. The monitoring of its’ vast population is much simpler than it was during the time of Mao Zedong’s Communist takeover because of technological advances.The unlimited data storage of the computer means that no matter how many people in China or in the world that you need to monitor and control that it is an easy project.
The A.I. is eminently capable of sorting and manipulating any of the data that it is amassing on us every day. Your medical data, your employment data, your genealogical and genetic information. You and I either are or soon will be recorded as we drive, as we speak. Sooner or later we will have to do everything the government says, if we don’t already. Eventually, if we don’t do what the anti-Christ bids us do, well you must know that when it gets to that point you must choose the Lord because it will be your last chance for salvation.
If A.I. is the tool of the anti-Christ that would clearly make him capable of going well beyond any of the empire’s of the historical past. Just imagine what Alexander the Great or the Roman Cesear’s would do with the A.I. What about the emperor’s of China or Genghis Khan? The Ottoman Empire or Napolean? The story of the Russian Revolution and the eventual Iron Curtain over Eastern Europe would be a much more tragic story, if that was possible, had the A.I. technology been available.
A.I. Reeks Havoc:
Ephesians 2:2 In which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.
A.I. is a dangerous thing yet it seems like it is a do or die kind of thing now. I don’t think that we have a choice. My belief is the USA needs to have it because China and Russia leading in that technology would be a tragedy waiting to happen. I think A.I. is already beginning to destroy our world in a prelude to the anti-Christ. Have you considered these vast data centers that will be needed to work with this technology? What about the vast amounts of energy and resources and its’ blot upon the land? One farmer in the United States describes his experience with a representative from an A.I. company as nothing short of harassment. They wanted to buy his land and even after he declined their offer they would not except no for an answer.
He was offered a great deal of money to give up a 254 acre farm but, he refused to do it and instead gave the land at a much reduced rate to an agricultural land trust. He didn’t care about the money. He wanted the land that had been in his family and that he had farmed all his life to continue to produce for generations to come. I sure hope that Elon Musk is right and he can get these monstrous data centers into outer space because they are so freakishly dystopian on earth.
This technology is here. After all, many of our children already can’t think, read or write without it. They are already attached practically on a brain level with their devices which are powered more and more by the A.I. They are growing up with this technology and encouraged by parents and teachers to use it for too many things. Some seem to prefer mommy’s phone to her, other playmates or the world around them. I see little kids asking the A.I. questions next to the adoring gaze of their parents. I wish I could get the A.I. to check on their physical and intellectual development. “A.I. how’s my child’s brain development going?”
A.I. and the Image of the Beast:
Revelation 13:15 And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.
Revelation 13:8 And all who dwell on earth will worship it, everyone whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who was slain.
Then, there is the image of the beast that is mentioned in Revelation. I think of this as sort of an advanced Alexa, Siri or a chatbot. The move towards creating partners for people, companions for the elderly has already begun. We are just looking for something or someone to meet our needs for emotional, physical and spiritual well-being but, is this really the way to go? Mark Zuckerberg thinks so. He even said that artificial intelligence might be better than a real friend. While this may seem insane to me or you, this man helped usher in social media, so this is real. Tragically, people are buying this hook, line and sinker. No more working through the trials and tribulations of relationships. What for? After all, you can create the perfect chatbot friend, partner or mother. People are so self-centered that they would prefer that. No fuss, no muss. Creating the perfect husband or wife, then why not create the perfect god? The quest for rewriting God’s story will ultimately lead towards the creation of a false god that is Satan himself. I feel the way things are going it seems to me like many people are ushering the anti-Christ in whether they know it or not.
Now is the time to connect in a more meaningful way with the people around you. They need you and not a chatbot meeting their needs for relationship. Go to a good Bible centered church and read a hard copy of your Bible. Learn something new by doing it and talking about it with others and not by watching a YouTube video.Teach your children to investigate the world around them by using their five senses. Teach them to read and write cursive. Teach them about God. Try to use the A.I. as a tool for good and not for evil. The time will come when A.I. will take a turn for evil but until then, like any tool A.I. can be harnessed for good.
