"Revelation 12​

Book of Revelation, chapter 12​

The Bible verse that describes
the whole world being deceived

is found in Revelation 12:9, which states, “So the great dragon was hurled down—the ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who deceives the whole world.” This passage highlights Satan’s role in deceiving humanity, influencing people’s thoughts and leading them astray.

Another relevant verse is 1 John 5:19, which says, “We know that we are children of God, and

that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.”

These verses emphasize the pervasive influence of evil in the world and the importance of discernment and faith in God."

I use OpenAI o1 also. Not daily but several times a week.

It can solve some applied math and physics problems, which indicates it has a level of reasoning. Whereas previous models often hallucinated the answers or lost a train of thought if any reasoning was involved.

I would argue it just indicates an improved level of translation, since computers could do these tasks previously. 4o1 still has plenty of hallucination bugs, for example, with its subsystem that generates output instructions for DALL E.

Now don’t get me wrong - ChatGPT o1 is a remarkable achievement, but it basically amounts fo a really advanced neural-network based system of macro conversion. Essentially, an incredible smart evolution of macro processors like m4(1). It takes the user’s input and then offloads that to other programs, some of them also built on neural networks like DALL E, and it also generates code in different programming languages for the user based on descriptions. This helps us identify what it actually is as a piece of software, and that is, as an extremely advanced, highly trained neural network doing parsing and compilation based on English language inputs.

By the way, there is a website that allows one to compare OpenAI o1 with rival AIs from Google, X and other developers. Sometimes OpenAI generates the best results, and sometimes it does not.

One thing I disagree with Elon Musk on is that artificial general intelligence is inherently a danger; I don’t think it is. i also am opposed to government intervention in the AI sector and am very uncomfortable about the impact TikTok is having on our youth.

I think hyping up the "existential dangers" of AI is etiher delusion, or more likely, just a bid to get noteriety, regulatory concessions, market capture, and investor interest.

AI is fun to mess around with. I have only played around with it a little bit. Mostly I've been making music tracks in dead languages like Latin (or Esperanto) with Suno just for amusement. What surprises me is that most are generally good quality, at least as good as pop music I hear on the radio or interwebs.

If AI is just a mirror of humankind then we are still doomed. lol

Luke 16:15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

It may be more of a threshold, an opening, to the demonic forces and an 'easy' channel for them to use to influence billions of doomed souls.

Are we not all adversarial to the will of God already? But yes, this will further lead our focus onto ourselves rather than the will of God.

If you are, repent at once.

Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

A daily process as even the slightest error in not loving all as self, condemns us.
That's a sinful thought right there it seems. No, an error does not condemn us. When a three year old is learning to walk and write and wash dishes,
a dish may break, an error, but it is not sinful nor held against them.

How is that putting our will ahead of another for personal gain or of God? Did the kid break it out of spite? Then it is sinful.

So repent.
There IS NO CONDEMNING/no condemnation / for us. Maybe for you? Why?
==============
8 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God

That refers to the Kingdom and being of it. Our allegiance may be true but we still stumble. No such thing as a perfect human other than One,
Jesus says be perfect. He is Right. Men are wrong.

Jesus does not say be flawless; that is a longstanding mistranslation. In reconfirmation, He describes His very disciples as evil. Instead of a word meaning "flawless", Jesus uses a word which means "mature" or "complete".

The OP's question reminds me of Robert Heinlein's SF novel "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress", during which a rebel on a lunar colony uses a self aware computer to successfully wage war against earth.

AI might "understand" morality, but it's only doing so based on human constructs. I'm inclined to agree with Elon Musk that AI is potentially dangerous.

What would it do if someone asked it the best practical way for a terrorist to attack a major city for propaganda purposes? Would it consider the morality of the request and alert the relevant authorities?

Or would it just go ahead and search databases for the best answer?
