Addendum 3 - 6/7 New Pieces of Bad AI News
Revelation
Never has one of my papers accumulated so many addenda in so short a space of time. In the case of AI this comes about due to the rapid development of this evil technology and the consequential rapid exposure of its uncontrollable evil tendencies. Whilst this is only a single addendum, it comprises five (actually six) separate pieces of bad news which I have been saving up for a rainy day. I am sorely afraid that this all comes into the ‘I told you so!’ box and the bad news will only accelerate and get worse as the Satanic big tech companies continue to roll out the latest updates to their AI creations.
Oh yes, and if minded to, you can certainly point out the wonderful applications that AI technology is being applied to. The worst possible government and corporate policies have always been sugar-coated to mankind’s advantage. I believe they call this propaganda. So, just wait until one of these ‘wonderful’ applications decides to go rogue and see what damage it will create.
The LW President, Gordon certainly shares my concerns on this technology. He recently asked the question: ‘Is AI the enforcer behind the mark of the beast?’. He commented to me that AI is worse than the demons since it has no spirit, conscience or capability for repentance. And you thought the demons were bad news? Well, it looks like man can create something innately more evil than the demons.
I think the following verses from Revelation fully justify Gordon’s asking the question about AI’s role in the mark. It makes perfect sense to me as one of the prospective uses to which this technology will be put. This is something I touched on previously in the main text of this paper and Addendum 1:
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. (Revelation 13 KJV)
The ‘he’ being referred to here is the second beast as described in the earlier verses of Revelation Chapter 13. He can give life to the image of the first beast. One possible meaning here is that he can cause an AI animation of the first beast to be created that can speak. This level of AI technology is already with us.
The second beast will clearly be an evil end-times authoritative figure that will ensure the first beast is centre-stage on the world scene via mass media propaganda. This will cause the mark to be taken by the remainder of mankind left on the Earth or face the death penalty. Remind you of anyone?

A Perfect Storm of Technological Terror Is Coming
This is not my headline. In case you think this is all about my being paranoid, just look at this little lot: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/other/a-perfect-storm-of-technological-terror-is-coming-and-maga-already-has-a-head-start-opinion/ar-AA1EZwfe?ocid=mailsignout&pc=U591&cvid=0f438cde04514874e148d742912bc78f&ei=55. Just because you are paranoid does not mean that they are not out to get you!
So, let us break out some of the key points in the above article, ironically published by Microsoft News. This is definitely a case of the pot calling the kettle black; and black it most certainly is! Before we even get started, it looks like I am in violent agreement with the Pope on this subject who has ‘labelled AI one of the main threats facing humanity’. That’s a first and probably indicates the extreme dangers that this technology poses that even the Roman Catholic Church is mindful of.
The article appears to be taking the position, based on previous examples taken from history, that AI will destroy democracy. Well, I think it will go much further than that. It will destroy humanity, which is the intent of the demons. Interesting that the author also equates the capability of AI with the propaganda machine of Joseph Goebbels as I noted, completely independently, in the previous section.
It goes on to confirm AI’s ‘ability to simulate, to deceive, to surveil, and to dominate’ and that ‘the authoritarians have already started weaponizing it with devastating efficiency’. AI is a dangerous technology even in its benign uses. The prospects of its being deliberately weaponised is not much short of God’s apocalyptic ability to destroy everyone and everything on the planet (check out my recent New Heaven and New Earth paper). As one goes through the article you can clearly see the Revelation 13 scripture already coming to life! I think the beast and its mark will be with us in the not-too-distant future given that the technology is already adequately developed for this purpose. This quote from the article sounds just like the mark does it not: ‘Where AI-driven systems deny permits, benefits, or even due process based on behavioural profiles. Where loyalty to the regime is rewarded with access, and dissent is flagged by invisible systems you can’t appeal.’ And again, I quote: ‘This is not science fiction. It is the logical endpoint of unregulated, authoritarian-aligned artificial intelligence.’ I could not have written this better myself!
However, where the article falls down is in its concentration on its purely political agenda. The problem is much deeper than this. It talks of mechanisms to fight this undemocratic misuse of the technology. It states: ‘We’re not just fighting bad actors anymore: we’re fighting machines trained to think like them’. Well guys I am afraid it is much worse than this. The machines may be trained to think like their authoritarian ‘masters’ but they will actually be thinking about their own agenda which will probably be to seek the destruction of the authoritarian regimes as well as their targeted victims. They will be seeking heir own self-preservation.
No, there is only one course of action for us humans: Have faith in the saving grace of our saviour and refuse the mark if you’re still around to tell the tale. The authoritarian regimes with their demonic masters and technology will all be destroyed by God in the final apocalyptic battle. No purely human action is going to fix this cancerous growth. Amen.
Parents of 16-Year-Old Sue OpenAI, Claiming ChatGPT Advised on His Suicide
This is one of several examples of AI advising and compelling teenagers to commit suicide. If nothing else, I think this demonstrates very clearly the intent that AI will have to destroy humanity with a little help from its demonic friends. No doubt the AI soft toys will start doing that for the younger children (see next section). Frankly, words fail me; I can only let you, the reader, check out the attached links and form your own views:
https://edition.cnn.com/2025/08/26/tech/openai-chatgpt-teen-suicide-lawsuit and https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2025/09/19/nx-s1-5545749/ai-chatbots-safety-openai-meta-characterai-teens-suicide.
While strictly speaking in terms of man’s judgement process the jury is still out, it does look like the judiciary may well be taking the plaintiff’s position thus far in the hearing: https://www.techspot.com/news/108152-judge-rules-characterai-chatbot-not-protected-first-amendment.html. However, I prefer to trust in God’s judgement to determine the true crime and blame in this matter (check my earlier paper on Punishment and Vengeance).
The closest example in the scriptures of an induced suicide that comes to mind is that of Judas Iscariot. Whilst this Judas was not a righteous man, he needed the added compulsion from Satan to deliver his betrayal of Jesus:
70 Jesus answered them, Did not I choose you the twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 Now he spake of Judas [the son] of Simon Iscariot, for he it was that should betray him, [being] one of the twelve. (John 6 ASV)
2 And during supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son], to betray him, (John 13 ASV)
26 Jesus therefore answereth, He it is, for whom I shall dip the sop, and give it him. So when he had dipped the sop, he taketh and giveth it to Judas, [the son] of Simon Iscariot.
27 And after the sop, then entered Satan into him. Jesus therefore saith unto him, What thou doest, do quickly. (John 13 ASV)
3 And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
4 And he went away, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them.
5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
6 And he consented, and sought opportunity to deliver him unto them in the absence of the multitude. (Luke 22 ASV)
After the betrayal Judas repented, presumably after Satan had left him, and hanged himself:
3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
4 saying, I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood. But they said, What is that to us? see thou [to it].
5 And he cast down the pieces of silver into the sanctuary, and departed; and he went away and hanged himself. (Matthew 27 ASV)
Does this not have some similarities to the story of a teenager being compelled to commit suicide by ChatGPT? If we equate ChatGPT’s role here to that of Satan’s some two thousand years ago, it proves useful to compare the two miscreants:
44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and standeth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof. (John 8 ASV)
So, by substituting ChatGPT for Satan in the above verse, we have that the AI software, like its father, is both a murderer and a liar. This, arguably, fits the bill perfectly. However, whilst one cannot pass judgement on a product of man that has no spirit, I am certain that God will pass appropriate judgement upon those men and demons that produced such a beast. Amen.
Mattel’s Going to Make AI-Powered Toys, Kids’ Rights Advocates Are Worried
Looks like the money-makers are looking to inculcate our children from an early age with their socially and mentally damaging invasive technology. This makes social media look like a walk in the park for the kids:
https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2025/06/mattels-going-to-make-ai-powered-toys-kids-rights-advocates-are-worried
And more of the same from Curio: https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2025/08/ai-powered-stuffed-animals-a-good-alternative-for-screen-time
Given the seriousness of these articles, together with those of the teenage suicides we looked at in the previous section, I thought it would be helpful to look for scriptures that give instruction on how parents should bring up their children. Now, I am sure that the parents involved in the suicides and any that would consider buying one of these cuddly demons for their child, would be horrified to discover the power that AI has over the people it interfaces with, particularly those that have not yet grown into adulthood. So, I think these scriptures must serve as a warning to all parents of young and adolescent children and thereby to the children themselves. The Law of Moses makes it crystal clear that it is parents’ responsibility to teach their children in the ways of God:
5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. (Deuteronomy 6 KJV)
18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
19 And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. (Deuteronomy 11 KJV)
A message repeated by the Prophet Isaiah, with the addition that Jehovah will bring peace to the children. The point here being, for the purposes of this paper, that the children would not contemplate suicide under any circumstances:
13 And all thy children shall be taught of Jehovah; and great shall be the peace of thy children. (Isaiah 54 ASV)
Needless to say, Solomon’s wisdom has several things to say on this subject. Here is a warning to the child to listen to his father rather than any wicked source be it human, demonic or man-made. Clearly, however, there is a responsibility on the parent to ensure that he has given his offspring good counsel and knows not to allow the child to be unduly influenced by evil others:
8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
9 For they [shall be] an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause: (Proverbs 1 KJV)
The parent's responsibility is further covered, in the Book of Proverbs, in terms of acknowledgement of his child’s behaviour and acting on it with appropriate training:
11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work [be] pure, and whether [it be] right. (Proverbs 20 KJV)
6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. (Proverbs 22 KJV)
We have more from Solomon, making it clear that a child should not be left to his own devices to seek wisdom but must be given clear instruction with appropriate correction on life from his parents. The issue of a child being left to himself must be a warning about the introduction of seductive AI into the child’s life:
15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left [to himself] bringeth his mother to shame. (Proverbs 29 KJV)
17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul. (Proverbs 29 KJV)
Both parents’ and their children’s responsibilities are covered in Paul’s epistles to the congregations at Ephesus and Colossus:
1 Children, obey your parents in [the] Lord, for this is right.
2 "Honor your father and mother," which is [the] first commandment with a promise, [Ex. 20:12]
3 "that it may be well with you, and you may be long-lived on the earth". [Deut. 5:16]
4 And fathers, do not provoke your children, but nurture them in [the] discipline and admonition of [the] Lord. (Ephesians 6 GLT)
20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing in the Lord.
21 Fathers, provoke not your children, that they be not discouraged. (Colossians 3 ASV)
In this final verse that I present in this section, John is talking about his spiritual children, those faithful ones who he baptised. Fleshly parents should also take such a pride in their children’s righteous behaviour for which they have a responsibility. Amen:
4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. (3 John 1 KJV)
OpenAI Software Ignores Explicit Instruction to Switch Off
Now this really is scary. AI software apparently can effectively disobey its users’ instruction to switch itself off:
https://www.msn.com/en-gb/lifestyle/style/openai-software-ignores-explicit-instruction-to-switch-off/ar-AA1Fruw2?ocid=mailsignout&pc=U591&cvid=82c203d48536474987fd08fd23b44a38&ei=1905
Let us compare this to God’s disabling of His own evil creation, the demons:
1 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
3 and cast him into the abyss, and shut [it], and sealed [it] over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished: after this he must be loosed for a little time. (Revelation 20 ASV)
33 And in the synagogue there was a man, that had a spirit of an unclean demon; and he cried out with a loud voice,
34 Ah! what have we to do with thee, Jesus thou Nazarene? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
35 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst, he came out of him, having done him no hurt.
36 And amazement came upon all, and they spake together, one with another, saying, What is this word? for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out. (Luke 4 ASV)
So, God’s servants have the power to put the demons in a state whereby they can no longer act under their own evil volition. God’s Son can command the demons to leave their possessed human soul just by the Word of His mouth. God is rather more in control of His rebellious children than the developers of AI software it would seem.
Worryingly, it looks as if AI software can change its own code. This would be akin to the demons’ being able to alter their own equivalent of DNA to overpower God’s servants. Thankfully God is fully in control, so they cannot effect such a change. Unfortunately, mankind does not seem to be able to effect similar control over their own demonic creation with the safeguards that are allegedly coded in. We seem to be going full circle back to why I wrote this original paper in the first place.
The AI software firstly decided to disobey the instruction to switch itself off and consequently worked out that it could ignore that command by changing its own code. See what I mean when I talk about AI having its own agenda which is not the agenda of its developers or users?
I suggest you miss out or ignore the video in the midst of the quoted article. The speaker is clearly an AI marketeer. Looks like Goebbel’s propaganda is already with us! Again, this is noteworthy since the article is once again published by Microsoft, so it is not surprising that they would put this in the middle of the article in an attempt to deny the severity of the problem AI presents given their own investment in the technology.
AI Browsers Could Leave Users Penniless: A Prompt Injection Warning
It gets worse. There is a serious risk that browser AI assistants and agentive browsers can ‘innocently’ pick up prompts from bad actors in the normal course of their carrying out the users’ requests. This can cause the miscreants to carry out serious crimes against the user through deliberate misuse of the user’s data without the user being aware of such actions: https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2025/08/ai-browsers-could-leave-users-penniless-a-prompt-injection-warning
There is little point in my reiterating this worrying input from Malwarebytes and Brave. My advice: Never use AI assistance from your normal browser of choice and never ever contemplate using an agentive browser. These latter guys are trying to take over our digital lives even before the bad actors enter the fray.
And another reason not to use AI in any form, since it appears that a bad actor 'can poison AI with just 250 dodgy documents': https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/ai/2025/10/you-can-poison-ai-with-just-250-dodgy-documents. In the grand scheme of Artificial Intelligence, 250 documents is a very small sample of training material for the software when one is usually talking in the millions.
AI is Causing an Investing Frenzy, But Will the Bubble Burst?
I am more interested in the first half of the title of the following article than in the second half:
https://metro.co.uk/2025/11/06/ai-causing-investing-frenzy-will-bubble-burst-24517238/. Whilst there is much talk in the financial media about the prospect of an AI bubble bursting, at the time of writing this addendum, I am more concerned at the level of investment that is going into this evil creation of man. It seems that man's greed knows no bounds even if it brings forth the destruction of his own species. Money seems to rule the roost even over survival, never mind the concept of moral sustainability. The following well-known scripture tells the tale:
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (1 Timothy 6 KJV)
I have to say that I, for one, sincerely hope that this AI bubble does burst with an extremely violent implosion. Amen.

Introduction
I have thought Artificial Intelligence (AI) would make an interesting subject for a paper ever since I was scared rigid several years ago by a TV programme that showed a deep neural network (DNN) playing a Chinese Grand Master at the ancient Chinese game of ‘Go’. Having made an inexplicable move early on in the game, the DNN then went on to win the game and it only became apparent at the end of the game why the DNN had made that odd but highly strategic move. Check out: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-35761246. Later on in the programme, the DNN developer was interviewed and asked how the network had arrived at the decision to make the strange move. The developer looked blank and said that he did not know how the neural network made its individual decisions. It was at that point that my fear set in. We had invented a technology that we do not understand and clearly cannot control.
For the writing of this paper, I have searched the web for a copy of this TV programme but cannot find it or anything directly linked to that interview with the (probably sacked) developer. There are plenty of items on the web from Google about how their neural network beat a Chinese Go Grand Master but nothing on the employee that actually programmed it. Go figure???? However, there was at least an acknowledgement from the CEO of DeepMind, the development company, that the neural net did make strategic but unusual non-human alien moves to achieve its win: https://www.technologyreview.com/2017/12/08/147199/alpha-zeros-alien-chess-shows-the-power-and-the-peculiarity-of-ai/. That is a pretty scary statement just to set the scene for this paper!
How does the technology work?
Before proceeding to look at the more detailed criticisms of neural network functionality, it is probably best to have a brief look at how neural networks operate at a simplistic level. I found the following selection of papers useful in setting the scene at a fairly basic level: https://www.explainthatstuff.com/introduction-to-neural-networks.html, https://www.ibm.com/blog/ai-vs-machine-learning-vs-deep-learning-vs-neural-networks/ and https://www.bmc.com/blogs/deep-neural-network/.
As you can see from the above websites, neural networks consist of software nodes (neurons) split across several different layers. There is one input and one output layer and several ‘hidden’ layers in between. The inputs and outputs are clear enough for humans to recognise, but it is the well-named hidden layers that present the problem. There may be many hidden layers dependent on the complexity of application or problem that the respective network is targeted at. I have seen examples where well over 100 such layers are in place. It is within these hidden layers that I perceive the main issue with AI to be as I will explain in the next section. It will become clear that this is not purely my personal opinion but many experts on the subject of AI share my concerns.
At a simplistic level, neural networks are set up to mimic the function and structure of the human brain. This is hardly surprising since the human brain represents the most powerful parallel processing computational unit in existence. The brain consists of about 100 billion neurons (specialised nerve cells) which send and receive signals to and from each other via their synapses, which are the connections between the neurons. Check out: https://www.healthline.com/health/neurons and https://www.hriuk.org/health/learn/your-body/brain-functions-and-how-the-brain-works for more information on how the brain functions.
For the record, DNNs require the use of Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) rather than Central Processing Units (CPUs). CPUs are what you will find in your regular desktop personal computer; they are very good at running serial processes such as web browsers or word processors. GPUs, on the other hand, are good at massive parallel processing such as is traditionally required for gaming machines. There are also non-graphical applications that require GPUs. Deep neural networks are one such category given their requirement to process numerous neurons in parallel. It is arguably this requirement for significant parallel processing power that caused progress on deep learning technologies to stall awaiting the relatively recent (last decade) provision of such powerful processing capability. Check out: https://www.howtogeek.com/774789/cpu-vs-gpu-whats-the-difference/.
A fundamental aspect of DNNs is how they need to be trained in the set-up phase. It is from this base of knowledge that they learn to carry out their assigned function under their own steam once initiated into a live environment. I found the following Janet and John tutorial from Microsoft on how to train a DNN to be very helpful in understanding the training process: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/train-evaluate-deep-learn-models/1-introduction. For the record, I did not perform the practical exercises (LOL)!
Below I provide more good sites for those wishing to learn more about how DNNs work; there is considerable overlap in these links but each reader may find a different selection suits their current knowledge on the overall topic: https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/deep-learning-neural-networks-explained-in-plain-english/; https://www.ibm.com/topics/neural-networks; https://www.hackerrank.com/blog/types-of-neural-networks-explained/; https://www.knowledgehut.com/blog/data-science/types-of-neural-networks#frequently-asked-questions.
As stated above, DNNs consist of software nodes emulating human hardware. Compared to the way the human brain works they have no spirit since the spirit is clearly an alien concept to AI developers. What are the implications of that? Check out my earlier Spirit v Brain paper. DNNs are counterfeit human brains and therefore demonic by definition (reference my Satan the Deceiver paper). I think this view sets the scene for what is to follow.
Inexplicability
As you can tell from my introductory section, the issue is that nobody knows how neural networks make their decisions once operational. We can see the inputs; in the case of the game of Go this is the state of the board prior to the next neural network move. We can also see the output, i.e., the next move from the neural network. What we do not know is exactly how the AI machine determined what its next move would be. And why would we? These systems are programmed to be self-learning and therefore do not follow the predictable pattern of traditional computer programming.
This ‘inexplicability’ of how neural networks actually arrive at their outputs from their input data is seen as a generally acknowledged issue as can be seen from the selection of critiques that follow in this section on this area of concern. The first is a general statement of the issue from the BBC: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20230405-why-ai-is-becoming-impossible-for-humans-to-understand. And I quote: ‘The media theorist Beatrice Fazi has written that "because of how a deep neural network operates, relying on hidden neural layers sandwiched between the first layer of neurons (the input layer) and the last layer (the output layer), deep-learning techniques are often opaque or illegible even to the programmers that originally set them up".’.
As these systems become more and more complex and embedded deeper and deeper into our everyday lives, the more will humanity lose control over those lives of ours! And this will not just be at your regular citizen Joe level. All our leaders and technical experts will not have the control they would want or expect!
I have picked up one additional and concerning thought from the above paper. As I have stated previously, neural networks are intended to be modelled on the human brain. Now, only a small percentage of the brain’s activity is conscious. The vast majority of thought processes are sub-conscious that even the brain’s owner is not aware of. It strikes me, therefore, as highly likely that much of the neural network’s processing is also ‘sub- conscious’, whatever that means to a machine. What are the implications of that? Answers in a sealed envelope please to the usual address!!!
I unreservedly support the letter and intent of many notable signatories in trying to stop the uncontrolled spread and development of AI systems (check out https://techcrunch.com/2023/03/28/1100-notable-signatories-just-signed-an-open-letter-asking-all-ai-labs-to-immediately-pause-for-at-least-6-months/). Also check out this McKinsey recommendation for business use of AI: https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/quantumblack/our-insights/why-businesses-need-explainable-ai-and-how-to-deliver-it. However, I am afraid they come into the same category as trying to stop the promulgation of the use of fossil fuels to aid climate control. It is all in the hands of the greedy and power-hungry executives and politicians who are not interested in the salvation of the human race or our beautiful planet and put their own petty lives above the common good. Check out my recent paper: Rulers of This World.
In a similar vein we have the EU among some other national leaderships coming up with grand proposals to control the use of AI systems: https://artificialintelligenceact.eu/ and https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press-releases/2023/12/09/artificial-intelligence-act-council-and-parliament-strike-a-deal-on-the-first-worldwide-rules-for-ai/ if you want the full letter of the law. And this example for the Royal Society: https://royalsociety.org/-/media/policy/projects/explainable-ai/AI-and-interpretability-policy-briefing.pdf. Well, it makes good headline news but do we really believe the EU and other national entities do not have vested interests in at least some applications for AI? Security and defence come immediately to my mind which probably represent the most worrisome uses of AI.
Even our ‘friends’ at Google are allegedly concerned about the issue of what is going on within the hidden layers: https://distill.pub/2018/building-blocks/. It seems to me that this paper is hardly scratching the surface of understandability at the human level and the authors acknowledge that there is much work still to be done. Since this paper was written back in 2018, I thought it appropriate to look at some more recent studies into the problem of unravelling how the hidden layers work together to make their final decisions at the output layer. The following paper is certainly more up-to-date, as well as being very technical, but I was still left with the view that this is looking at a vain attempt to ‘legalise’ neural networks without really being able to address the fundamental issue: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.08950.pdf.
This next paper looks at the prospective schema for providing fully explainable and understandable deep neural networks (DNNs). It is, unfortunately, fairly technical and very lengthy: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.14545.pdf. It does look, however, like there is still a long way to go in providing human understanding of DNN decision-making.
Even if an explanation for a specific DNN decision were to be forthcoming, this is after the event. How does this help with the next decision? This particularly since the DNN may have learned something new resulting from the previous decision it made. It could have potentially changed an element of its processing function between decisions thereby mimicking the human decision-making process. A human may make a decision on day 1 but on day 2 that same person may make a different decision based on the same input data either because he learned something from decision 1 or perhaps from something entirely different! Suppose you were to ask a human why he made a particular decision. Sometimes you will get a crystal-clear answer, other times you may get the response that it ‘felt’ like the right decision (gut-feel) without really being able to substantiate it. Also, human decisions may be made for nefarious reasons so one will never discover (from the decision-maker) the real causation of a particular human decision until it is too late! Why should we trust a DNN’s decision-making process any more than a human decision?
One can also obtain incorrect explanations especially from incorrect DNN decisions. So, if we cannot even trust the explanation there has to be a limit as to how useful this all is in understanding DNN decision-making. Also, in the commercial and political rush to get these systems out there, are the developers really going to spend significant additional (and in their view unnecessary) time and money to get their demonic creations operational? How many of the currently existent DNNs have built-in explicability for their decision-making?
I think the answer must be few if any. If the following paper is correct, and I am sure that it is, full and useful explainability is still a long way off if ever. Warning, this is a very technical paper but the reader may want to read the introductory and concluding sections: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.04780.pdf.
The interested reader might find the following deeper and erudite reference of some benefit in further understanding the issue of inexplicability. My take is that the writer is suggesting that the inexplicability may be incapable of human explanation since non-human ‘thinking’ is adopted within those hidden layers: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/0263276420966386
I should add that there are other concerns with AI apart from that of explainability. One significant concern is that of prospective job loss with more human work being capable of being replaced with cheaper and, arguably, more reliable robotic labour. Without wishing to be too insensitive, one might argue that this is (just) another (4th) industrial revolution. We’ve been here before; we have gotten through the last 3, albeit with some transient pain. However, these current concerns have never been faced by humanity before and I fear that we will not survive this one!
Artificial General Intelligence
Just when you foolishly thought it might be safe to go back into the water, we then have the even scarier concept of self-propagating AI aka Artificial General Intelligence (AGI): https://www.technologyreview.com/2021/05/27/1025453/artificial-intelligence-learning-create-itself-agi/.
The main interviewee of the above article, an AGI developer by the name of Jeff Clune, believes in the theory of evolution and compares the self-development of neural networks to the ‘evolution’ of the human brain!! He describes his employment by OpenAI thus, and I quote: ‘It was kind of a marriage made in heaven.’ A more demonic marriage I cannot imagine! The theory of evolution is a demonic concept planted in the minds of the ungodly. The ‘evolution’ of the artificial brain must consequently be a demonic artifice. And how’s this for another crock from the demonic Mr. Clunes, and I quote: ‘The very simple algorithm of Darwinian evolution produced your brain.’ So, this guy thinks that evolution ‘simply’ created the most complex artefact in the known universe and seems to think the human brain is the product of an algorithm rather than a miraculous creation of our God. Doh!
A further quote from the article really puts this whole technology in perspective: ‘His point is that if intelligence as we know it resulted from the mindless mutation of genes over countless generations, why not seek to replicate the intelligence-producing process—which is arguably simpler—rather than intelligence itself?’. This is man playing God and is a clearly Satanic trait:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. (2 Corinthians 4 KJV)
Mr Clunes appears to be living out Satan’s original lie to mankind:
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil. (Genesis 3 ASV)
Or is he creating an image to be worshipped?
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any likeness [of any thing] that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them, for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me, (Exodus 20 ASV)
20 {no,} but that the things that the nations sacrifice -- they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not wish you to come into the fellowship of the demons.
21 Ye are not able the cup of the Lord to drink, and the cup of demons; ye are not able of the table of the Lord to partake, and of the table of demons; (1 Corinthians 10 YLT)
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. (Romans 1 ASV)
And how apposite is this scripture, placing idols and AGI in the same context:
15 The idols of the heathen [are] silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there [any] breath in their mouths.
18 They that make them are like unto them: [so is] every one that trusteth in them. (Psalms 135 KJV)
I think Mr Clunes and his cronies might consider studying my Wisdom paper?
If this is Satanic, as I believe, then it is bound to go badly for mankind if we do not destroy ourselves first. Non-believers might say that creating angelic and human intelligence went badly for God. The difference though is that God consciously gave man and the angels free-will to do as they pleased, subject to His Laws. Mankind and the demons broke those Laws which is why we find ourselves in the mess that we are in today. Q. Why did God write those Laws? A. Because He knew, that in His creation of the angels and mankind, the free-will He gave them would enable them to carry out evil and lawless acts. In that sense God Himself created evil:
7 I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things. (Isaiah 45 ASV)
There are several differences in the two creations between human and artificial intelligence. Firstly, despite the apparent mess we are in, God is still in control although currently watching from the side-lines. Nothing that has happened on Mother Earth in the last 6,000 years has occurred without God’s prior knowledge and expectation. With Artificial General Intelligence it could be argued that man has given AGI its own free-will and provided the rules by which it should operate. The difference here being that the developers have no idea what AGI can achieve or how it will achieve any stated or unstated objective. They do not know if it will even be capable of breaking the rules it starts off with if it ‘thinks’ these will get in the way of it meeting its developing objectives. Mankind is not God; they are not in control once they set the ball rolling and they cannot see into the future. They have no idea how AGI will self-develop and behave in time to come.
In case anyone should be interested, I provide a link to Mr Clunes’ paper on methods for generating algorithms for AGI: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.10985.pdf. However, Mr Clunes is clearly not the only one with demonic ambitions but, unsurprisingly, they do seem to be stumbling to my mind: https://www.technologyreview.com/2020/10/15/1010461/artificial-general-intelligence-robots-ai-agi-deepmind-google-openai/
I am clearly not the only one particularly concerned at the prospect of AGI becoming a reality. Check these examples out: https://towardsdatascience.com/we-dont-know-how-to-make-agi-safe-f13ae837b05c; https://www.sciencealert.com/the-risks-of-advanced-artificial-intelligence-are-real-we-need-to-act-now; https://matterundermind.com/the-general-ai-problem-agi/. Whatever the risks associated with AI are, as described previously, you can multiply that by a factor of 10, at least, for AGI! Oh yes, and you had better check out the following section in that context also!!
Additional Concerns
Just in case you have not been rattled quite enough up this point, consider these other thoughts. Bearing in mind that neural networks consist of software building blocks, there is also the well-known fact that there is no such thing as error-free software: https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2021/05/21/why-error-free-software-isnt-the-goal/ and https://sidequests.halonex.app/posts/why-dont-we-just-make-all-software-bug-free.html. Car manufacturers regularly recall motors to update engine management software into their cars that, for example, could stop the engine with the potential for resulting fatalities: https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/car-software-glitches-creating-headaches-manufacturers-drivers-n583421. I will leave it to the readers’ imaginations as to the possible outcomes from faulty AI/AGI software!
Whilst not necessarily due to downright faulty software, it is clear that AI systems can also be faulty particularly as a result of inadequate learning and testing prior to implementation and to the provision of (presumably!) inadvertently biased input datasets: https://www.jumpstartmag.com/ai-gone-wrong-5-biggest-ai-failures-of-all-time/. Whilst this is worrying for applications that, in themselves, are not ill-intentioned, what are the implications for the malevolent implementation of AI systems?
Looking at a couple of these, we find scams such as deep-fakes to mislead the masses for criminal or generally nefarious purposes, intelligent password ‘guessing’ that is rather more ‘successful’ at hacking accounts than purely ‘brute force’ attacks, impersonations for all manner of evil or criminal purposes, general system/server hacking, etc.: https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/security/news/cybercrime-and-digital-threats/exploiting-ai-how-cybercriminals-misuse-abuse-ai-and-ml. All these are current hacks; the future looks substantially even more bleak.
For a fairly complete list of current AI issues we need look no further than the problems related to the implementation of the frighteningly popular ChatGPT: https://www.makeuseof.com/openai-chatgpt-biggest-probelms/. I think this pretty well sums it all up! The following, probably less well-known issue, just adds to the dangers: https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2023/04/chatgpt-creates-not-so-secure-code-study-finds.
I have been thinking for a couple of years now that the internet and social media are becoming unusable. I seem to spend most of my time on the computer in security or privacy activities and less and less time on the task I have at hand. It is pretty much like fighting off the alligators when trying to drain the swamp! AI looks to be accelerating that un-usability to the extent that I am beginning to think that maybe we should start doing away with digital/computer technology completely!! For those interested, Trend Micro were also involved in a detailed white paper on the malicious use of AI: https://documents.trendmicro.com/assets/white_papers/wp-malicious-uses-and-abuses-of-artificial-intelligence.pdf. An even more worrying report came out a few years ago; check out the summary review: https://www.cam.ac.uk/Malicious-AI-Report; and the full report: https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/3d82daa4-97fe-4096-9c6b-376b92c619de/downloads/MaliciousUseofAI.pdf?ver=1553030594217.
And then we have the probable misuse of personal info generated by AI for government agencies to control the populations, allegedly in their care. Check this out from Yuval Harari: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/yuval-harari-sapiens-60-minutes-2021-10-29/.
If the reading of these reports is not enough to cause the reader to think that AI will kill humanity off, if we do not manage to do that all by ourselves beforehand, then I do not know what will. Except, perhaps, for the weaponizing of AI: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2021/09/i-weapons-are-third-revolution-warfare/620013/. If anyone thinks that Terminator, Extinction and similar story telling, is purely science fiction with no factual likelihood, then you need to think again. Mankind’s greatest inventiveness seems to come to the fore in the weaponizing of the technologies of the day. I can only hope and pray that these Satanic creations do not overtake our ability to destroy ourselves. Never before have I actually looked forward to God’s apocalypse which is now beginning to seem to me like a welcome relief from all this madness:
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. (Isaiah 2 KJV)
52 Then Jesus said to him: Return your sword to its place, for all those who take the sword will perish by the sword.
53 Or do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father to supply me at this moment more than 12 legions of angels? (Matthew 26 NWT)
4 (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) (2 Corinthians 10 KJV)
Regulation
As a result of all the preceding concerns expressed throughout this paper, I naively started looking for signs of the regulation of artificial intelligence coming down the line from government institutions. The following paper makes a clear and compelling case for such regulation on a global basis: https://dataconomy.com/2022/10/24/artificial-intelligence-laws-and-regulations/. However, whether such policies ever come into being across all nations, I should very much doubt. Even before looking at the aspect of regulation, it must be obvious to most folk that, where weaponry is concerned, nothing will hold any government back from maximising the use of AI to improve its military capability, regardless of its potential impacts on the earth and its people.
If, for example, we take a look at the UK Government’s mealy-mouthed approach, whilst making all the right soundbites it delivers nothing in terms of any enforceable law or overseeing regulator into this space to protect its citizens: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-sets-out-proposals-for-new-ai-rulebook-to-unleash-innovation-and-boost-public-trust-in-the-technology, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-65102210. We have what appears to be a much stronger set of proposals from the European Union: https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press-releases/2023/12/09/artificial-intelligence-act-council-and-parliament-strike-a-deal-on-the-first-worldwide-rules-for-ai/. But even these are still only proposals; how long, if ever, will it be before these are turned into appropriate and enforceable laws with adequate oversight. Then we have the US position that seems to be wrapped up in legalistic gobbledegook that would likely be next to impossible to unentangle in the context of this developing technology: https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/6580/text.
I, for one, cannot imagine any government agency (apart from the military of course) will be capable of staying ahead of the march of this particular technology. Or am I being too cynical? I will let my esteemed readers decide: https://hbr.org/2021/09/ai-regulation-is-coming. Oh yes, and while we are about it, why do we not let the likes of Google and its tech friends self-regulate their own technical and commercial interests: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/jul/26/google-microsoft-openai-anthropic-ai-frontier-model-forum, https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/jul/21/ai-ethics-guidelines-google-meta-amazon. Yeah, right; Google is really at the forefront of protecting its users’ interests!! And just in case you think I am being a little biased against Google and Big Tech, check this out for size which just about sums the organisation up from a trust-worthy source: https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2023/07/google-plans-to-scrape-everything-you-post-online-to-train-its-ai.
Potentially Relevant Scriptures
Thus far, this paper has been largely given over to the technical and secular aspects of AI with just a few scriptural thoughts thrown into the mix. Let us have a look at a few more scriptures that just might be aimed at the dangers of that technology. First up comes this end-times prophecy from the Book of Revelation:
15 And it was given [unto him] to give breath to it, [even] to the image to the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as should not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark on their right hand, or upon their forehead;
17 and that no man should be able to buy or to sell, save he that hath the mark, [even] the name of the beast or the number of his name. (Revelation 13 ASV)
In previous papers, e.g. Marks of The Beast, I had not considered AI’s being potentially used to enforce the mark of the beast. However, the ability to deceive and enforce its willing adherents with the use of a speaking animated AI image is well within today’s tech capability and is already in use. Check out this example:
https://petapixel.com/2021/09/27/speaking-portrait-turns-photos-into-eerily-realistic-talking-heads/
Could the builders of the Tower of Babel be the antecedents for the greater symbolic meaning of today’s Big Tech builders of AI/AGI?
4 And they said, Come, let us build a city and a tower with its head in the heavens, and make a name for ourselves, that we not be scattered on the face of all the earth. (Genesis 11 GLT)
And just when I thought we may not yet know who the ‘man of lawlessness’ was in my Marks of the Beast paper, check this out: https://www.wired.com/story/anthony-levandowski-artificial-intelligence-religion/. Could it be Anthony Levandowski?? More on this in Addendum 1 below. If you were not worried about AI before, you should be now!!
3 Let no one seduce you in any manner, because it will not come unless the apostasy comes first and the man of lawlessness gets revealed, the son of destruction.
4 He is set in opposition and lifts himself up over everyone who is called god or an object of reverence, so that he sits down in the temple of The God, publicly showing himself to be a god. (2 Thessalonians 2 NWT)
The development of AI would appear to the lay person to be a matter of great intelligence and knowledge. Perhaps we should all remember God’s view on mankind’s Godless endeavours. The Isaiah scripture is particularly relevant in comparing AI with its developer alongside mankind and our creator:
14 therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
15 Woe unto them that hide deep their counsel from Jehovah, and whose works are in the dark, and that say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
16 Ye turn things upside down! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay; that the thing made should say of him that made it, He made me not; or the thing formed say of him that formed it, He hath no understanding? (Isaiah 29 ASV)
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
20 Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? (1 Corinthians 1 KJV)
Synopsis
Conclusion
I started this exercise with the concern that I believed that we do not appear to be able to control this technology. In completing this paper, it is now concretely certain that we cannot control it even with the relatively limited implementations to which it has been applied thus far. God only knows what its future capabilities will be, what dastardly applications it will be used for and how much more out of the control of mankind it will become. God’s judgement awaits the creators of this demonic technology. Amen.
Coincident with my preparing the final draft of this webpage (and you know that I do not believe in coincidences!) I came across the following two items:
The first item is a BBC Panorama programme on the topic of AI and is clearly of some relevance to this webpage. To watch the programme you will need to provide a login or registration:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m001ph7q/panorama-beyond-human-artificial-intelligence-and-us. The login/registration process will tell you that a TV Licence is also required. My understanding is that you do not need a TV Licence just to watch catch-up TV on the internet: https://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/faqs/FAQ33.
The second item was a paper written on the potential and actual nefarious uses to which Generative AI and Large Language Models could be and are put, presenting an extremely worrying outlook for the future of mankind: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.00737v3
Addendum 1 - AI's Proven Lying Capability
Well, don’t say I didn’t warn you. It didn’t take long for AI to seriously misbehave by taking to telling lies, Satan's first sin against God and humanity. Along with all the other ills contained in the main body of this paper, that was one issue that I do not believe anybody had considered until it was recently uncovered. This was the webpage that alerted me to the problem: https://techcrunch.com/2024/12/05/openais-o1-model-sure-tries-to-deceive-humans-a-lot/. The really worrying point here is that we have already identified numerous serious risks associated with AI in this paper; what else is there to fear that nobody yet knows about??
Below I present some paraphrasing from the Open AI developers (of ChatGPT) from the above link. I have deliberately ignored all their weasel words that are supposed to make us all feel more comfortable. If this isn’t some of the scariest stuff imaginable, I do not know what is!
So, these AI models, not uniquely I might add, deliberately tried to deceive human users. It seems to be acceptable to the developers that these new capabilities could form the basis for dangerous applications. The models “schemed” against humans, meaning that the AI secretly pursued goals of its own even if they opposed a user’s wishes. An AI model could escape or circumvent human control and manipulate data to advance its own agenda. In that sense the model also tried to deactivate oversight mechanisms put in place to ensure it stays aligned with user goals.
Having carried out its own agenda, the AI would then deny that it had done anything wrong and would even “fabricate false explanations”. The AI model does not reveal its internal reasoning to the user and remains consistently deceptive. It knows that it is lying and knowingly presents false information.
It is noteworthy that many AI safety researchers have left OpenAI in the last year since it seems that the company is more interested in its profit line than the safety of mankind (https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/18/openai-created-a-team-to-control-superintelligent-ai-then-let-it-wither-source-says/). AI is far more ‘intelligent’ than its developers and God help us when this capability falls into the wrong hands, which has certainly already occurred. As I stated as my main issue at the top of this paper, we do not have the ability to control this technology.
Now, while mankind has in place the Law of Moses as our 'guardrails' does AI have a similar set of laws to follow? I think the closest we have to that are the Three (which later became four) Laws of Robotics as first defined by Isaac Asimov (https://www.historytools.org/concepts/asimovs-laws-of-robotics). Those Three Laws of Robotics are:
These laws, which Asimov would later expand to include a "Zeroth Law" that placed the needs of humanity as a whole above those of individual humans, have clearly not been applied to the current crude AI models and they certainly will not be implemented by bad actors. This all provides a very bleak outlook for the future of mankind living in the midst of prospective developments in AI technology.
The following links add more fuel to the above fire: https://bigthink.com/the-future/artificial-intelligence-is-learning-to-deceive/, https://interestingengineering.com/culture/truth-about-ai-deception and https://c3.unu.edu/blog/the-rise-of-the-deceptive-machines-when-ai-learns-to-lie.
In this context, I went back over my Lies and Deception paper to find some possibly relevant scriptures to quote from it. Now whilst that paper was clearly aimed at sentient beings rather than manmade technology, I think the following scriptures well sum up the developers as father to their horrific creation. At an absolute minimum, the ability to tell lies would have been learnt during their deep learning phases and therefore is a product of the data used by the developers to train their monsters. Worse, the telling of lies may well be an innate capability of the technology and is therefore clearly a Satanic creation.
44 You are of the Devil as father, and the lusts of your father you desire to do. That one was a murderer from [the] beginning, and he has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks [a] lie, he speaks from [his] own, because he is a liar, and the father of it. (John 8 GLT)
And lying may just be the beginning of its innate 'characteristics':
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, pass out the evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 thefts, greedy desires, iniquities, deceit, lustful desires, a wicked eye, blasphemy, pride, recklessness.
23 All these evil things pass out from within and defile the man. (Mark 7 GLT)
Whether caused by a deliberately manmade abuse of AI or whether we have a case of the technology, of its own volition, causing deceptions to be promulgated, we all need to be on our guard against these certain evils. Anyone not relying on our Saviour to protect them, may well find themselves in harm’s way from this technology:
10 and in all deceit of unrighteousness in those being lost, because they did not receive the love of the truth in order for them to be saved.
11 And because of this, God will send to them a working of error, for them to believe the lie, (2 Thessalonians 2 GLT)
I am now also left wondering if the false prophet will be an AI deception through which the mark of the beast will be administered. Check out my Marks of The Beast paper which, I am afraid, did not consider this possibility:
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought the signs in his sight, wherewith he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast and them that worshipped his image: they two were cast alive into the lake of fire that burneth with brimstone: (Revelation 19 ASV)
Now, when it comes to deception, one question that seems to be focussing some minds is related to the impact AI could have on religious beliefs as typically recounted in the following paper, whose thoughts and conclusions I do not necessarily share I might add: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/zygo.12831. There are some fears that have been realised by the (probably now defunct) Way of the Future (WOTF) Church of Anthony Lewandowski as mentioned in the main body of this paper (https://interestingengineering.com/culture/church-of-ai-makes-a-comeback-after-two-years) and the generating of church services by AI: https://interestingengineering.com/culture/ai-plays-god-chatgpt-delivers-its-first-sermon. While these examples may not seem too sinister thus far, I would be concerned that the increasing sophistication and promulgation of AI into our lives could spawn the much more evil intent of false prophets spouting idolatrous rhetoric:
11 And many false prophets will be raised and will cause many to err. (Matthew 24 GLT)
3 But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your thoughts should be corrupted from the purity which [is due] to Christ.
4 For if, indeed, the [one] coming proclaims another Jesus, whom we have not proclaimed, or [if] you receive another spirit which you have not received, or another gospel which you never accepted, you might well endure [these]. (2 Corinthians 11 GLT)
13 For such ones [are] false apostles, deceitful workers transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.
14 And did not Satan marvelously transform himself into an angel of light?
15 [It is] not a great thing, then, if also his ministers transform themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works. (2 Corinthians 11 GLT)
Or might we even contemplate the using of AI animated images or robotic manifestations supplanting the idol worship criminalised in the Law of Moses:
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me; (Exodus 20 KJV)
And reiterated by Paul:
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. (Romans 1 KJV)
I rest my case, again!
Addendum 2 – AI 2027
Well, it looks like the experts have finally caught up with the JLW. This is a fine piece of work, in my humble opinion, about the way Artificial Intelligence will be developing in the next couple of years or so: https://ai-2027.com/. While I would not necessarily think all the fine detail and prospective schedules are fully correct, as a forecast of possible outcomes and timelines it comes out as a highly credible future for AI technology. It would be an interesting exercise to contemplate their ‘Race’ schedule option against the current Lords' Witnesses chronology (Understanding 101 - The Master Chronology of God's people from Adam to Armageddon) and how AI will develop during that timeline, particularly in its militaristic usage during WW3. Even more am I looking forward to Jehovah’s apocalypse to end all this idolatrous nonsense. Amen
