00:00:02.279 --> 00:00:06.040
Looking at our world from a theological perspective. This is

2
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:13.119
the Theology Central podcast, making Theology Central. Good evening everyone.

3
00:00:13.359 --> 00:00:17.679
It is Wednesday, January the eighth, twenty twenty five. It

4
00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:21.679
is currently ten twenty eight pm Central Time, and I

5
00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:24.879
am coming to you live from the Theology Central studio

6
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:29.679
located right here in West Texas. Now, I've been telling

7
00:00:29.719 --> 00:00:34.560
you that this year is really about I'm keeping the

8
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.479
symbolism alive. I know no one else can see it,

9
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:40.399
but the symbolism is important to me. I'm keeping in

10
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:45.960
a blank notebook right here, a blank notebook sitting right

11
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:49.320
here under the microphone, and right next to it is

12
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.280
a pencil. And the reason I'm keeping this blank notebook

13
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.759
here is I said that twenty twenty five is kind

14
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:57.359
of a blank notebook. Right in a sense, we're kind

15
00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.920
of it's a blank notebook and we're just going to

16
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:05.040
each day. Well whatever wherever that day leads us. That's

17
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:10.680
what happens. There's no map, there's no plan. Another illustration

18
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:13.599
to keep using is twenty twenty five. We kind of

19
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:16.359
just got in the car and we're just driving. We

20
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:21.079
have no GPS, we have no maps, no Google Maps, nothing.

21
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:25.319
We have no driving directions. We have no destination. We're

22
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.040
just in the car, and wherever we end up we

23
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:30.519
end up in each day is well just kind of

24
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.359
where we end up. And I know that probably at

25
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.120
some point I will start formulating some plans and say

26
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:37.680
we're gonna do this or we're going to do this,

27
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:40.959
but I'm trying to be very kind of hesitant with

28
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:45.680
that right now. There. I don't have a specific reason why.

29
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:49.959
I'm just really taking this, well, whatever happens each day

30
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.840
is what's going to happen on the podcast approach. I

31
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:56.280
don't know, We'll see. I'll probably will change my mind

32
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.000
at some point, but that's kind of the approach I'm taking. However,

33
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:01.480
there is been, there has been. I should say, no,

34
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:05.159
there not, there is been, there has been, Okay, there is.

35
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:07.560
I guess I was going to say there is at

36
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:13.240
least one thing that has become kind of a I

37
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:16.520
guess it will be a theme in twenty twenty five,

38
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:21.120
not so much really something I'm planning some kind of

39
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:23.840
strategy and how I'm going to cover it, but it

40
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.159
is a topic that I know is going to come

41
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:30.199
up over and over and over because I believe it's

42
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:34.599
the subject that's going to dominate twenty twenty five, maybe

43
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:37.560
even if people don't notice it, even if it's not

44
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:43.000
getting news coverage, And that is artificial intelligence, Ladies and gentlemen,

45
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:45.879
twenty twenty five is the year of artificial intelligence. Whether

46
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:49.599
anybody admits that, whether anybody wants to even acknowledge that, maybe,

47
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:54.479
I just think artificial intelligence is going to continue to

48
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:57.960
become more and more prevalent, more and more use, more

49
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:04.120
and more powerful, more and more just influential in people's lives.

50
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:08.879
So I have had in my mind a lot of

51
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:15.080
just focus and thinking and considering and meditating and how

52
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:20.400
this technological wonder in some ways, this as one puts it,

53
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:27.960
this is from a book, The Greatest Invention and Human History.

54
00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:34.759
Is how one book classifies AI the greatest invention in

55
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.800
human history. Now you may think that that's hyperbole. You

56
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:43.080
may not agree with that I do, but I think

57
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:46.759
I'm pretty much convinced that it is the greatest invention

58
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:49.879
in human history. I think it's going to change culture,

59
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.039
it's going to change education, is going to change every

60
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:58.879
area of life, including the Church, including Christianity, including religion.

61
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:02.000
Even if nobody wants to acknowledge it, so in a

62
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.080
roundabout way, even though this year is kind of a

63
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:06.479
blank notebook and we're kind of in a car not

64
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.199
knowing where we're going, one of the things that's going

65
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.680
to become talked about over and over and over is

66
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:17.279
this idea of artificial intelligence. And I started the first

67
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:21.759
Sunday in the year doing two hours discussion about artificial

68
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:24.319
intelligence and the future of the church. And we have

69
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.000
an entire series, So in a sense, I guess we

70
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:29.079
could go ahead and write that in the notebook. But

71
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:32.879
even that, I'm not planning it. I'm not trying to strategize, well,

72
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.639
I'm going to do this. I just know AI is

73
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:38.519
going to dominate the year, So I'm just I've got

74
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:45.519
a series ready that whenever AI related things cross my path,

75
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:51.360
or I cross its path, or it comes to my attention, boom,

76
00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.160
I can put the content right there. So in as

77
00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:57.560
since that's what's happened this evening, let me explain, all right,

78
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.800
so earlier today, I'll try to put this all together.

79
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:05.079
Earlier today, we did a broadcast, and what I wanted

80
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:09.560
to demonstrate in that broadcast is the ability of artificial

81
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:16.360
intelligence to completely analyze every aspect of a sermon. It

82
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:20.399
can summarize it, it can outline it, it can critique it,

83
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:27.040
and it can look for factual errors, historical errors, logical errors, errors,

84
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:31.720
biblical errors, hermeneutical errors. And I and we looked at

85
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:34.680
two sermons and we did that. Now, as far as

86
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:38.959
the broadcast itself, you know, again, I didn't have it

87
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:42.040
all mapped out right because because that's kind of the

88
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:46.399
way I'm working at this year, So I didn't know

89
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.360
exactly how it was going to go, and I didn't

90
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:51.160
even have it mapped out and how it was going

91
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:53.680
to present it. What I basically did was went to

92
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:58.560
the sermonadio website, downloaded or downloaded the transcript of two sermons,

93
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:02.399
and then uploaded the transcript to AI said here take

94
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:05.720
this apart, and then I just went through what AI

95
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:09.240
said live on the air. So in some ways, when

96
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:14.519
I look back from a broadcasting perspective, you know, it

97
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:17.360
was a lot of me reading. So I feel like

98
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:19.480
in some ways it probably was more difficult to keep

99
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:22.399
people engaged, but it was still an interesting idea. And

100
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.839
I've been fascinated by that idea throughout the day. In fact,

101
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:29.759
I have been I have now used AI today. I

102
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:32.319
don't know at different times. I don't know how many

103
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.800
sermons I've had it analyzed today, but at one point

104
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:39.959
it analyzed a sermon on something about doctrine. I think

105
00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:42.439
it was Matthew twenty eight. It was a weird passage

106
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:46.759
that the sermon was using for its text. It was

107
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:50.759
kind of odd, and I had Ai analyze it. And

108
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:55.680
as Ai was analyzing it, it brought up this interesting dichotomy,

109
00:06:55.759 --> 00:07:02.680
this this kind of contrast between worship and faith or

110
00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:06.800
worship and doubt. I think that was the contrast. I

111
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:10.000
was gonna say faith and doubt, So worship and doubt,

112
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.920
because worship and faith wouldn't really be a contrast, right, Okay,

113
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:17.879
so worship and doubt. And it just mentioned it briefly

114
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.519
because the pastor had said something in regards to it.

115
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:23.519
And AI was like, hey, there's a logical fallacy here,

116
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:26.120
there's a problem. But when I saw those words worship

117
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.639
and doubt, I was like, oh, this is good. So

118
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.040
I were I mean, I started discussing a with Ai

119
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:37.439
that particular part of the sermon, this this contrast of

120
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:42.000
worship and doubt, and then Ai, between our conversation it

121
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:45.759
ultimately turned into me kind of writing out utilizing AI.

122
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:47.639
I mean AI was doing most of the writing. I'm

123
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:51.639
just doing the input and the concepts, and AI is

124
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:55.079
flushing it out. But between me and AI, I kind

125
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:58.399
of put together this entire kind of a devotional idea

126
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:03.160
on worship and doubt more faith in doubt. Maybe I

127
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.560
think I went with worship in doubt more than faith

128
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.360
in doubt, but you get the idea, this contrasting con ideas,

129
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:15.839
these almost seemingly conflicting concepts worship in doubt, can how

130
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:19.160
do they work together? How are they in conflict? Do

131
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:24.160
they contradict? And so I had that ready earlier this

132
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.920
evening I was going to I was going to do

133
00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:30.160
a broadcast and just kind of go through the devotional

134
00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:34.240
for kind of a Wednesday evening teaching, but things didn't

135
00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:36.440
work out. I was not able to get to it.

136
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:40.159
So I was like, Okay, well I'll do that maybe

137
00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:45.679
late tonight, or do that maybe early tomorrow. And that

138
00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:48.240
was kind of the idea. So I was up here

139
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:50.600
in the studio, I was doing other things. I don't

140
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:53.799
even know how this occurred, but all of a sudden

141
00:08:53.840 --> 00:08:57.200
I saw this cover of a book. I don't even

142
00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:59.320
know what website I was on. I don't even know

143
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:01.440
if it was maybe it was just a search engine.

144
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:03.240
I don't know, but there was this cover of this

145
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:05.480
book and it jumped out at me. I caught my

146
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.399
eye because parts of it is in this really bright

147
00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:11.519
like neon green, and I'm like, oh, okay, what is that?

148
00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:15.679
And then I look down and it says Supremacy. I'm like, oh,

149
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.279
what is this book? Supremacy? What kind of supremacy? And

150
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:24.240
then right underneath it, I see the two letters AI

151
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:30.039
supremacy AI. I'm like, ooh, this got my attention, so

152
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:34.440
immediately I clicked on it. It took me to Amazon dot com.

153
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:43.799
Here's the full title of the book, Supremacy AI Chat

154
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:50.799
GPT and the Race that Will Change the World. Supremacy

155
00:09:52.000 --> 00:10:00.320
AI Chat GPT and the Race that Will Change the World.

156
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:06.360
I'm like, okay, this has my attention right because here's

157
00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:11.120
a book about AI. I've been talking about AI. Okay,

158
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:15.360
And since I felt like, oh, here's here's my blank notebook,

159
00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:18.080
and we well, we've got something something in the blank

160
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:21.720
notebook now right in other words, for it's blank right now.

161
00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:24.120
But we just stumbled upon something, right. We don't have

162
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.440
a plan. We're driving the car and I just saw

163
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:28.960
the road sign that says that, oh look at that.

164
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:31.120
That looks interesting, and we just took the exit. So

165
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:32.840
we're going to take an exit for a little bit

166
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:37.200
and talk about this book, because I just I'm begging people,

167
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:42.759
wake up, pay attention. Learn everything you can about artificial intelligence.

168
00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:46.519
Understand it, know how to use it, Know how to

169
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:49.759
how to use it to the best of your ability.

170
00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:52.600
Know what it can do, what it can't do. Avoid

171
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:58.799
conspiracies and fear and misinformation. Know it because I'm telling

172
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:01.960
you it's going to impact the church. Now, even though

173
00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:06.600
this book isn't about AI and the church, I am

174
00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:08.600
going to take certain things about the book and at

175
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:12.360
least try to see how it may be applicable. Right,

176
00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:16.799
so here again the full title of the book, Supremacy

177
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.720
aichat GPT and the Race That Will Change the World

178
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:26.039
by what is the name of this author? Parmi P A. R. M. Y.

179
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:32.799
Parmie Olson. Parmie Olson currently is the number one best

180
00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:37.080
seller and Social Aspects of Technology at Amazon dot com.

181
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:40.159
Not only that, this book is the winner of the

182
00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:45.759
Financial Times and Schroeder's twenty twenty four Business Book of

183
00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:50.840
the Year, All right, So this is the business book

184
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:55.919
of the year, won that award, it's the number one

185
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:58.799
best seller. And here's the good thing about it. If

186
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:01.279
you want it for your kindle, it's only two dollars

187
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:05.840
and ninety nine cents. So if you want for a paperback,

188
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:08.399
it's twenty one dollars. If you want a hardcover, it's

189
00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:12.440
twenty two dollars. So you know, it's three hundred and

190
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:17.320
twenty three pages long, So you know, for a kindle,

191
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:20.080
that's I mean, man, I probably should buy it like

192
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:23.360
immediately before the price goes up, because that is crazy. Right.

193
00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:25.799
But here's a little bit about the book. Here's how

194
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:32.879
here's the description. You're ready. In November of twenty twenty two,

195
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:38.840
a web page was posted online with a simple text box.

196
00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:45.039
It was an AI chat bot called chat GPT and

197
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:51.120
was unlike any app people had used before. It was

198
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:56.480
more human than a customer service agent, more convenient than

199
00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:02.080
a Google search. Behind the scene, a battle for control

200
00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:06.720
and prestige between the world's two leading AI firms, Open

201
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:11.639
Ai and deep Mind, who now steers Google's AI efforts,

202
00:13:12.039 --> 00:13:17.519
has remained elusive until now. So this is really it

203
00:13:17.559 --> 00:13:19.279
looks like this book is going to do more about

204
00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:22.320
pulling the curtain back to show the battle that was

205
00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:25.519
going on behind the scenes, to really say which AI

206
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:29.279
model was going to take on, was going to be

207
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:32.080
the head of the table, was going to be the

208
00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:40.120
supreme one, was going to rule supreme, have supremacy in supremacy.

209
00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:45.919
Next paragraph, Olsen, tech writer at Bloomberg, tells the astonishing

210
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:50.039
story of the battle between these two AI firms, their

211
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.600
struggles to use their tech for good and the hazardous

212
00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:59.159
direction that could go. They could go as they serve

213
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:04.200
two tech gals whose power is unprecedented in history. The

214
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.759
story focuses on the continuing rival of the two keys

215
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:11.559
CEOs and the center of it all, who cultivated a

216
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:17.759
religion around their mission to build godlike super intelligent machines.

217
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:22.840
So these two CEOs have almost developed a religion to develop.

218
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:30.000
Now listen to those words, a god like super intelligent machine.

219
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:32.600
Are you ready to be in a world where a

220
00:14:32.759 --> 00:14:39.600
machine and artificial intelligence becomes godlike? Are you ready for

221
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:42.360
that world? Now? You may not be ready for it.

222
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:44.759
You may reject it, you may not want anything to

223
00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:48.440
do with it. But ladies and gentlemen, that's where we're going.

224
00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:50.360
Let me just make it very cool. I've stated this

225
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:54.639
on Sunday, I've stated it multiple times. Artificial intelligence is

226
00:14:54.799 --> 00:15:01.200
not going away. It's going to become bigger, more intelligent,

227
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:06.679
more powerful. I mean, that's that's the only thing. It's

228
00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:10.679
it's just going to grow. It's not going to go backwards.

229
00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:14.120
It's going to move forward. And if you have a

230
00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:21.720
god like intelligence available to everyone and the palm of

231
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:27.080
their hand on an app like the chat GPT app, like,

232
00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:31.679
I mean, that's that's the hang on going back here.

233
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:35.720
There's other like the chat gpt app or any of

234
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:40.759
the other ones. Gemini with uh, with Google. There's all

235
00:15:40.840 --> 00:15:43.000
kinds of others. You know, it depends on which one

236
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:47.200
you're using. But can you imagine people, let's just say

237
00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:51.279
Christians sitting in a church supposed to listen to a

238
00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:55.919
pastor who's some somehow a past has a spiritual authority,

239
00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:58.440
at least we claim we know reality, the authority is

240
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:00.320
the people sitting in the pew. I mean, and that's

241
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:03.279
the reality, right. The people in the pew are supposed

242
00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:05.240
to listen to the preaching, and the determined if the

243
00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:07.519
preaching is true or false. So the real authority is

244
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:09.440
the people sitting in the pew. Now, the people in

245
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:11.559
the pew are supposed to be determining what is true

246
00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:14.679
and false in their very hands, could end up with

247
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:21.279
a technology that is almost godlike. I mean, if you

248
00:16:21.399 --> 00:16:25.000
can't see where this is headed, then I sometimes I

249
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:28.159
feel like, maybe I know I'm not the lone voice

250
00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:32.799
in the wilderness, because I know plenty of people would be,

251
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:39.399
you know, are saying similar things. But maybe my perception

252
00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:43.080
is I think some people see it as AI is

253
00:16:43.200 --> 00:16:47.559
not as intelligent, are not as powerful as maybe I

254
00:16:47.799 --> 00:16:50.720
perceive it. Maybe I perceive it as being more powerful

255
00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:53.720
than it really is. But I just know, and I

256
00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:59.399
use AI. I can't even tell you how frequently I

257
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:04.119
use it. It's like just a part of my everyday life. Now.

258
00:17:05.279 --> 00:17:07.640
Every day I'm more and more blown away by what

259
00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:10.000
it can and what it can do, now what it

260
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:12.559
can't do, what it can do, I'm still kind of

261
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:14.599
looking for the thing it can't do. And even if

262
00:17:14.599 --> 00:17:16.880
it feel like it can't do something, all I have

263
00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:19.000
to do is just spend some more time figuring out

264
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:21.319
the best way to ask it a question. Or I

265
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:24.599
can still get all kinds of things even if I

266
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:28.319
can't get exactly what I want, but I don't think

267
00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:30.160
there's ever been a time I haven't really gotten what

268
00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:36.359
I needed or wanted. It is amazing. So this book

269
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:41.319
Against Supremacy, AI CHAT, GPT and the Race that will

270
00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:46.920
Change the World, it's really explaining this battle and what

271
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:52.000
is happening. The last paragraph here says Supremacy sharply alerts

272
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:55.720
readers to the real threat of artificial intelligence that it's

273
00:17:55.799 --> 00:18:00.880
top creators are ignoring. Now, this book maypproach that it's

274
00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:03.160
a threat. I'm just gonna be honest with you. I'm

275
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:09.000
just gonna be honest with you. I'm not yet may

276
00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:11.400
I know some people are gonna say I'm being naive here.

277
00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:15.279
I don't see it as a threat yet. I do

278
00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:23.079
see it as a threat to established institutional authority, right,

279
00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:28.440
these institutions that claim some authority, Well, are you the authority?

280
00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:31.240
If I have a godlike intelligence in the palm of

281
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:35.400
my hand? Are you the authority? Like it's the teacher

282
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:37.759
the authority when I can learn more than you can

283
00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:40.480
ever teach me? Is the pastor the authority when I

284
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:43.640
can fact check you? And five seconds as we as

285
00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:47.400
we demonstrated earlier today, we were fact checking sermons in

286
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:52.359
real time, and we were finding out just geographical errors,

287
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:57.440
historical errors, logical errors. In just second and five seconds,

288
00:18:57.640 --> 00:18:59.759
AI could review an entire sermon and go, here's all

289
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:05.799
the problems with it. Yeah, it's a threat to any

290
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:09.480
of those established authority structures.

291
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:19.160
Right, I mean, I mean, am I I.

292
00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:21.480
Don't see that as a threat. Now. I know everyone thinks, well,

293
00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:24.359
Ayi's going to take over, and I understand everyone is

294
00:19:24.759 --> 00:19:28.319
fearful of that. But I just know maybe it's just me,

295
00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:36.839
But look at human history. Humans have been in charge, okay, war, pestilence, disease.

296
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:39.799
I mean, come on, humans have had a good go

297
00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:43.440
at it, and all we've done is death, destruction, pain

298
00:19:43.559 --> 00:19:46.240
and suffering. I'm not saying AI will do any better,

299
00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:48.200
and I'm not saying I'm willing to just bow my

300
00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:51.920
knee to AI. I'm just saying, if people are I'm

301
00:19:51.920 --> 00:19:55.480
more fearful of humans than I am of artificial intelligence. Now,

302
00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:59.240
I know, but humans are behind the artificial intelligence intelligence.

303
00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:06.319
I understand. I'm more fearful of human involvement with artificial intelligence.

304
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:09.000
I'm more fearful of what human beings will do with

305
00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:13.279
artificial intelligence, not of artificial intelligence itself. If that makes

306
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:21.559
some sense. The profitive, the profit driven spread of flawed

307
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:25.880
and biased technology into industries, education, media, and more. With

308
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:29.839
exclusive access to a network of high ranking sources, Parmi

309
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:33.359
Olsen uses her thirteen years of experience covering technology to

310
00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:41.440
bring to light the exploitation of the greatest invention and

311
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:49.680
human history and how it will impact us all. So

312
00:20:50.039 --> 00:20:52.400
I love the way the book is at least acknowledges

313
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:56.000
this is the greatest again, the greatest invention in human history.

314
00:20:56.960 --> 00:20:59.559
It's going to impact every one of us. It's going

315
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:02.000
to I think the culture may be more aware of it.

316
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:05.319
The church just seems to be like, hey, let's get

317
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:08.319
together next Sunday and have a pot look, and hey,

318
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:12.319
let's do it. Likes just business as usual, not realizing, Hey,

319
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:15.400
things are changing and we're gonna have to figure out

320
00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:17.559
how it's all going to work together. And I don't

321
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:19.920
have any good answers yet. But I've been trying to

322
00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:24.200
show you how disruptive it can become. I'm trying to

323
00:21:24.240 --> 00:21:26.160
show you I know the church is gonna be ten

324
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:29.200
years behind everyone else. When the church finally wakes up,

325
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:32.160
it's gonna be like what, Look, I can prove that

326
00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:35.400
so many different ways. The church is always behind, and

327
00:21:35.839 --> 00:21:38.559
over and over and over, it's always behind. It always

328
00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:40.759
acts like, well, that's not gonna be a big deal.

329
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:43.240
I don't need to worry about that. Oh I don't care.

330
00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:45.039
Oh I'm just gonna I don't need to know what

331
00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:46.640
the world is doing. And the next thing, you know,

332
00:21:46.680 --> 00:21:48.519
they kind of wake up like, wait, just wait, what's

333
00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:51.519
going on? Well, I don't know, you're about ten years

334
00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:58.200
late to the party. So the name of the book

335
00:21:58.279 --> 00:22:02.880
is Supremacy A chat GPT and the Race that Will

336
00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:05.599
Change the World. Now, it's kind of going behind the scenes,

337
00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:08.920
and it may not go and maybe it's a book

338
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:11.799
not going direct necessarily in the direction I want to go.

339
00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:16.559
But I did, and I know this is kind of interesting,

340
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:20.359
utilized Ai and said, hey, tell me about this book.

341
00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:23.359
So Ai told me about the book. This is what

342
00:22:23.400 --> 00:22:29.319
Ai says about the book. First, I just gave it

343
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.480
a picture of the cover of the book. I just

344
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:33.680
gave it a picture of the book, and Ai said

345
00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:35.519
that I didn't say anything. I just gave it. And

346
00:22:35.559 --> 00:22:38.599
so AI said, this is the cover of Supremacy AI

347
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:41.480
chat GPT and the Race That Will Change the World.

348
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:44.680
By parme Olsen a book that explores the rise of

349
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:50.079
all technologies like chat GPT and their transformative impact on society.

350
00:22:50.319 --> 00:22:53.000
It was recognized as the Financial Times Business Book of

351
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:55.359
the Year for twenty twenty four. Would you like more

352
00:22:55.400 --> 00:23:01.720
information about its content or themes, so I told AI Yes, summarize,

353
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:08.000
outline and analyze the book. This is what a chat

354
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:12.599
GPT Artificial Intelligence said about the book about artificial intelligence

355
00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.960
supremacy AI chat GPT in the Race That Will Change

356
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:21.240
the World provides an in depth exploration of the competitive

357
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:25.640
landscape of artificial intelligence, focusing on the rivalry between leading

358
00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:30.119
AI organizations Open AI and deep Mind. Here is how

359
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:34.160
AI summarize the book. The book delves into the ambitions

360
00:23:34.200 --> 00:23:38.720
and challenges faced by Open AI and deep Mind, shedding

361
00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:43.039
light on their efforts to develop advanced AI technologies. This

362
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:45.839
narrative centers on key figures, and they name some of

363
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:49.680
the key figures, with open AI and deep Mind examining

364
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:53.839
their motivations and their ethical dilemmas they encountered in the

365
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:59.079
pursuit of AI supremacy. The book also addresses the broader

366
00:23:59.200 --> 00:24:06.000
societal andmplas locations of AI, including concerns about bias, security,

367
00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:12.759
and the concentration of power within major tech corporations. The

368
00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:16.960
outline of the book first number one introduction to AI

369
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:21.640
and its significance. So this chapter or this section of

370
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:24.759
the book gives an overview of artificial intelligence and its

371
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:28.160
potential impact on various sectors. Now that's a good that's

372
00:24:28.200 --> 00:24:32.079
a chapter right there worth reading. It gives you an overview.

373
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:34.400
So if you need to inform yourself, be informed a

374
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:37.240
little bit about AI. But the main thing is it's

375
00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:41.240
impact on various sectors. Now, I think we need to

376
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:43.240
know how it's going to impact every area of life,

377
00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:45.079
but primarily I want to know how it's going to

378
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:50.599
impact Christianity. That's still my focus. The second part of

379
00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:54.720
the book gives profiles on key players and it names them. Third,

380
00:24:54.960 --> 00:24:58.519
it talks about the race of AI supremacy, the milestones

381
00:24:58.559 --> 00:25:04.440
achieved by both organizations and no notable projects and breakthroughs.

382
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:07.480
The next part of the book deals with ethical and

383
00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:12.519
societal considerations. It discussions on AI ethics and potential risk.

384
00:25:13.759 --> 00:25:18.359
Then it talks about global implications the geopolitical landscape of AI,

385
00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:25.240
particularly the dynamics between you know, the United States and China.

386
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:32.200
Future prospects. It's this section of the book offers speculations

387
00:25:32.200 --> 00:25:35.960
on the trajectory of AI technology. We definitely need to

388
00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:42.200
know that and potential regulations and governance frameworks. Is it

389
00:25:42.200 --> 00:25:45.960
going to be regulated? Do you want it regulated? I

390
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:49.799
don't know if I want it regulated? Right? Do we

391
00:25:49.839 --> 00:25:52.519
want it regulated? I get I don't know. Maybe maybe

392
00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:57.559
we should, I don't know. I don't know. So AI

393
00:25:58.119 --> 00:26:00.960
then gives me a link to a podcast about the

394
00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:05.039
book and everything, so I kind of so I said, Okay, great, wonderful,

395
00:26:05.119 --> 00:26:07.039
thank you for telling me about the book. I can

396
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:09.039
turn on the microphone and tell you about the book

397
00:26:09.079 --> 00:26:11.599
and everyone should go get the book. Right, so let

398
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:15.079
me just go back here. The name of the book

399
00:26:15.079 --> 00:26:18.039
is Supremacy AI Chat GPT and the Race that Will

400
00:26:18.119 --> 00:26:20.240
Change the World Again. You can download it right now

401
00:26:20.240 --> 00:26:22.279
for two dollars and ninety nine cents. I don't get

402
00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:24.440
any money from this, so it's not about me making

403
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:26.599
any money, but it's about you having a book in

404
00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:28.880
your hand that that is the number one bestseller and

405
00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:32.400
one Book of the Year award. So maybe it would

406
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:35.160
offer some great insight in AI. I'm not saying every

407
00:26:35.240 --> 00:26:37.440
chapter of the book is going to be something you

408
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:40.000
even care about, but there may be enough in it

409
00:26:40.119 --> 00:26:42.160
that wouldn't make your two dollars in ninety nine cents

410
00:26:42.160 --> 00:26:45.799
a worthy investment. Because I'm sorry, twenty twenty five is

411
00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:48.279
a year of AI, whether you want to believe that

412
00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:56.200
or not. So I then was curious, So I said, hey, AI,

413
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:02.400
how would the information in the book show how AI

414
00:27:04.160 --> 00:27:12.160
may impact the Church and Christianity in the future, Because

415
00:27:12.200 --> 00:27:16.480
that's my focus, right, So this is what AI said.

416
00:27:16.559 --> 00:27:22.400
The book Supremacy, AI Chat GPT and the Race That

417
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:27.079
Will Change the World doesn't specifically address the Church or Christianity,

418
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:35.880
but it's broader themes about AI societal impact provide valuable

419
00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:43.279
insights into how AI might influence the Church and Christian

420
00:27:43.440 --> 00:27:52.559
practices in the future. Here are some possible implications. Number One,

421
00:27:52.759 --> 00:28:01.319
AI and philological discourse access to knowledge. AI could provide

422
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:08.039
Christians and churches with advanced tools for biblical study, offering

423
00:28:08.200 --> 00:28:16.640
detailed insights in descripture, historical context, and philological interpretations. I'm

424
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:22.759
telling you that's where I cannot see the future. Where

425
00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:30.799
AI is not the dominant tool in Bible study, I

426
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:34.599
can't see a future with I can't see it AI

427
00:28:34.720 --> 00:28:37.480
is going to dominate Bible study. Ladies and gentlemen. Forget

428
00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:42.039
the strongs concordance, Forget all the Bible software you may

429
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:45.519
have used, Forget all of the Bible reference tools you

430
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:50.079
may have used. Forget it's done. AI is the future

431
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:53.400
of Bible study. AI is the future of sermon prep.

432
00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:57.400
AI is the future of Sunday school prep. AI is

433
00:28:57.440 --> 00:29:00.519
the future of philological studies. AI is the future of

434
00:29:00.559 --> 00:29:04.920
Biblical studies. Well you can. You can fight me all

435
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:07.359
day on it. I'm telling you, just sit back and wait.

436
00:29:07.640 --> 00:29:13.079
That's the future. AI can do more in a Biblical

437
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:15.920
study on any subject, on any topic, on any text,

438
00:29:16.160 --> 00:29:19.720
better than anything I have ever seen in my entire life.

439
00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:22.960
It can do things that I it would take me

440
00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:26.680
forever to do, just like we demonstrated earlier today when

441
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:30.640
it analyzed sermons in five seconds. And if you listen

442
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:33.440
to my teaching from Sunday again, what happened at the

443
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:37.440
end of the second hour proves my point. Hey, next

444
00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:40.000
week we're gonna be in Isaiah forty eight through this

445
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:42.839
And if we used AI, and what did someone do

446
00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:45.720
in the congregation just the minute I said the text?

447
00:29:45.880 --> 00:29:48.559
They had already said Isaiah forty eight. I gave the text.

448
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:50.680
I can't remember which verse. I stopped at verse eight

449
00:29:50.759 --> 00:29:54.680
to whatever. They had already asked AI to analyze that

450
00:29:54.680 --> 00:29:57.319
section of scripture and provide an analysis. They already had

451
00:29:57.359 --> 00:30:00.720
it in the palm of their hands with an five seconds.

452
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:04.119
That don't even need to come to church next Sunday.

453
00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:07.480
And if they go home and ask AI to do

454
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:10.759
a little bit more work on Isaiah forty eight, they'll

455
00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:13.279
come to church with something better than anything I could

456
00:30:13.319 --> 00:30:21.000
put together. Everyone's going to have this not no one

457
00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:22.839
needs to go to seminary, No one needs to go

458
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:25.039
to Bible college. It's going to be right there in

459
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:33.000
the palm of your hands. That access to knowledge is

460
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:37.680
going to change everything. Another thing AI says here, So

461
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:40.400
this is what AI is going to do to theological discourse.

462
00:30:40.480 --> 00:30:42.880
Everyone's going to have this knowledge. It's going to change.

463
00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:46.400
I mean, the church just well embrace this is where

464
00:30:46.440 --> 00:30:48.680
Bible study is going, and the church is going to

465
00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:51.240
have to learn how to I think the church's mission

466
00:30:51.319 --> 00:30:53.839
is going to become to train people and how to

467
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:56.640
utilize it. Some churches are going to tell people don't

468
00:30:56.680 --> 00:30:59.599
touch it, stay away from it. It's the devil's tool,

469
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:01.960
and they're still going to try to do Bible study

470
00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:07.799
the old way, and well whatever, you go. Look that up.

471
00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:10.680
I've already got forty seven cross references, and I know

472
00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:15.119
the Greek, the Hebrew. I know that you have your

473
00:31:15.359 --> 00:31:18.720
entire concept there doesn't make any sense. AI has already

474
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:22.240
analyzed your concept and con found all the flaws in it.

475
00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:24.359
Like I mean, I guess you can try to do that,

476
00:31:24.400 --> 00:31:26.640
but I think you're going to the Church is just

477
00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:31.039
going to have to embrace it. Ai says, though, this

478
00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:38.920
is what's coming. A challenge to doctrine is coming. AI's

479
00:31:39.000 --> 00:31:49.680
ability to simulate reasoning might challenge traditional interpretations of scripture

480
00:31:50.680 --> 00:32:04.680
by introducing alternative views or exposing inconsistency and doctrinal arguments.

481
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:12.720
As AIS reasoning becomes better and better, it's gonna offer

482
00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:24.480
alternative interpretations of scripture. It's gonna offer alternative interpretations of scripture.

483
00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:27.279
Ladies and gentlemen. This is gonna change everything. And guess what,

484
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:29.039
and you know what it's also going to do. It's

485
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:33.119
gonna look at your doctrinal arguments and it's gonna say inconsistent,

486
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:40.960
logical fallacy, circular reason. It's gonna tear them into shreds now.

487
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:43.279
In some ways, what I would hope is that this

488
00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:47.200
eliminates all of these problems with so many doctrinal arguments,

489
00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:50.599
zoological arguments, so many biblical arguments that are just broken

490
00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:54.119
in logic and consistent lack of read and it finally

491
00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:56.039
wipes them off the face of the earth and something

492
00:32:56.079 --> 00:32:58.640
good happens. That's what I'm hoping. I don't think that's

493
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:01.480
what will occur, but that's what I'm hoping. But it's

494
00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:08.440
gonna it's going to create complete upheaval. So AI says

495
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:10.839
from this book. If you just see what this book

496
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.039
is saying is coming to the culture and to business

497
00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:17.799
and to other sectors, and you apply it to the church, well,

498
00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:22.039
the first thing everyone's going to have, I don't even

499
00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:26.839
know how do you classify it unlimited biblical access or

500
00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:31.920
you're gonna have unlimited biblical knowledge, textual knowledge, hermeneutical knowledge,

501
00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:37.039
theological knowledge, church history knowledge. It's gonna revolutionize Bible study.

502
00:33:37.079 --> 00:33:39.359
It's going to change the church forever in that area.

503
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:41.920
Maybe not today, but it's coming because the Church is

504
00:33:41.920 --> 00:33:43.839
going to resist it. But I'm sorry those of us

505
00:33:43.880 --> 00:33:45.440
who don't resist it, We're gonna be looking at the

506
00:33:45.519 --> 00:33:48.720
church going, what are you talking about? Your entire sermon

507
00:33:48.839 --> 00:33:52.000
is broken. Your entire sermon's messed up. And it's not

508
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:55.079
because we're smarter. It's because AI can analyze your entire

509
00:33:55.160 --> 00:33:59.559
sermon in five seconds and find out all your problems

510
00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:04.720
that I I don't even know what to do with that,

511
00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:16.599
and then it's going to challenge doctrine. AI could also

512
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:24.559
change evangelism, AI says a AI says that AI could

513
00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:28.960
analyze data to create tailored evangelistic messages for individuals, making

514
00:34:28.960 --> 00:34:32.480
outreach more effective. You could say here's where I'm going

515
00:34:32.519 --> 00:34:35.719
to try to evangelize, here's this group or wherever, and

516
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:40.960
then it could analyze that specific area, that specific way

517
00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:44.000
of thinking and say here's the evangelistic method you need

518
00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:47.440
to utilize. Now. Whether you like that or don't like that,

519
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:51.000
I'm just saying that's how AI could be used. But

520
00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:54.480
here's another thing AI says that AI could how it

521
00:34:54.519 --> 00:34:59.760
could impact the church. AI power translation tools might break

522
00:34:59.840 --> 00:35:03.599
le language barriers, enabling the church to spread the Gospel

523
00:35:03.920 --> 00:35:13.639
to unreach people groups. It's translation tools might revolutionize evangelism

524
00:35:13.880 --> 00:35:17.079
because you can well be able to reach people of

525
00:35:17.119 --> 00:35:24.360
all different languages. However, AI may also create ethical and

526
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:28.880
moral challenges. The book itself that I've told you about

527
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:33.079
highlights ethical concerns around AI. Churches might need to navigate

528
00:35:33.079 --> 00:35:38.880
how these biases impact moral decisions or influence perceptions of faith.

529
00:35:39.840 --> 00:35:41.480
So there is going to be some issues that the

530
00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:45.360
church is going to have to navigate. Here's AI. Here's

531
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:48.559
what it says. Again, it's only they're almost moving for

532
00:35:48.639 --> 00:35:55.280
a godlike technology. It's going to raise ethical issues. The

533
00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:59.079
church can say stay away bad, but it's going to

534
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:04.440
influence the people in the pew. Now this, I thought

535
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:08.280
this was crazy. This is what AI said as a

536
00:36:08.320 --> 00:36:11.400
result of the book that I told you about that

537
00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:17.320
here's what the church needs to prepare for artificial intelligence

538
00:36:18.519 --> 00:36:29.360
in leadership. As AI becomes more capable of managing tasks,

539
00:36:30.599 --> 00:36:36.639
churches will grapple with questions about its role in decision making,

540
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:47.719
pastoral care, or even preaching. And advertently, inevitably, AI may

541
00:36:47.760 --> 00:36:51.599
become the authority. AI may become the leader. He say no, no, no, no,

542
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:54.280
the Bible is the authority. Just remember how this works.

543
00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:57.159
Christians can say the Bible is the authority all day long.

544
00:36:57.280 --> 00:37:00.440
I already challenged that whole claim the Bible is not

545
00:37:00.440 --> 00:37:05.559
the authority. Individual's interpretation of the Bible is the authority.

546
00:37:06.159 --> 00:37:08.639
You say the Bible is authority. No, it's your interpretation

547
00:37:08.800 --> 00:37:11.639
of it. And then you say your interpretation is authoritative.

548
00:37:11.760 --> 00:37:14.960
That person says their interpretation is authoritative, and your interpretation,

549
00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:18.360
and then you decide, you determine, well, they are wrong,

550
00:37:18.400 --> 00:37:20.679
they're wrong, they're wrong, they're wrong, and I'm right. You

551
00:37:20.719 --> 00:37:22.840
may even say the pastor is wrong and then leave

552
00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:24.639
the church or start another church, or try to split

553
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:26.079
the church, or try to get rid of the pastor,

554
00:37:26.159 --> 00:37:29.519
because ultimately it's your interpretation that's the authority. Well, AI

555
00:37:29.639 --> 00:37:31.599
is gonna step up and go wait, wait, wait, everyone,

556
00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:34.280
let me interpret it because I can interpret it better

557
00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:37.360
than all of you. Well, I mean not that AA

558
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:39.159
is going to say that, but A is going to

559
00:37:39.239 --> 00:37:41.920
be there ready to do that if I should, If

560
00:37:41.920 --> 00:37:48.280
that makes more sense. Hey, I the sermons, the Sunday

561
00:37:48.280 --> 00:37:51.559
School lessons, the Bible studies, I'm telling you they're gonna

562
00:37:51.599 --> 00:38:04.559
be produced by AI. AI predicts based off the content

563
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:10.920
in the book that I told you about. AI driven Worship,

564
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:17.840
Virtual worship experiences, sermons generated by AI and AI led

565
00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:26.960
prayer groups will become commonplace, potentially enhancing but also depersonalizing

566
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:32.239
spiritual practices. Can you imagine an AI lad prayer group.

567
00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:39.079
AI's role in replacing human interaction could weaken the sense

568
00:38:39.119 --> 00:38:43.639
of fellowship and central to Christian community. So this is

569
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:47.280
what I think is going to happen. I think churches,

570
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:51.440
because churches are going to push back on some of this,

571
00:38:51.800 --> 00:38:53.679
and I think what churches are going to kind of

572
00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:56.880
make and I think I could be wrong how this

573
00:38:56.920 --> 00:38:58.960
is going to play out. I haven't quite mapped it

574
00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:01.960
out in my head. I'm trying to process it. The

575
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:03.840
churches are going to kind of say, hey, you know

576
00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:05.960
what we have to Look you can already get the

577
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:09.760
best Bible teaching in the world on your phone. With AI.

578
00:39:10.159 --> 00:39:12.320
They can break down any passage. I can break down

579
00:39:12.599 --> 00:39:16.920
it can analyze it. It can do exegesis, hermoneutics, apologetics,

580
00:39:16.920 --> 00:39:20.559
it can break down every it can do anything right.

581
00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:23.199
So the church is gonna, I think, inadvertently, kind of

582
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:26.079
realize it can't compete, and so the church is going

583
00:39:26.119 --> 00:39:34.280
to more focus on social aspects, community, communal. That's going

584
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:36.800
to become the I mean, that's already been the focal

585
00:39:36.840 --> 00:39:38.960
point for a long time. But the selling point of

586
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:43.519
the church is you need other people, and the churches

587
00:39:43.559 --> 00:39:45.079
just kind of get out. Is going to kind of

588
00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:49.119
just slowly get out of the teaching business and become

589
00:39:49.159 --> 00:39:54.599
more of a social institution, because I mean, really, I mean,

590
00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:56.920
I already know. What's the point of me, even like

591
00:39:57.159 --> 00:39:59.960
it's it's Wednesday. What's even the point of me? Show

592
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:11.000
I went up Sunday? What's the point if everyone knows

593
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:12.599
we're gonna be in If I let me grab my

594
00:40:12.599 --> 00:40:22.840
Bible really quick, if everyone knows, if everyone knows, you know,

595
00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:27.760
where is it? Where is it? If everyone knows that

596
00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:34.119
we're going to be in Isaiah forty verse a nine,

597
00:40:34.159 --> 00:40:38.039
I'm sorry, verse nine through eleven. Isaiah forty nine through eleven,

598
00:40:38.079 --> 00:40:41.559
Oh Zion, that bring us good tidings, get the up

599
00:40:41.599 --> 00:40:44.599
in the mountain, Oh Jerusalem, that bring us good tidings.

600
00:40:44.920 --> 00:40:48.199
If I if everyone already knows in my church we're

601
00:40:48.239 --> 00:40:51.559
going to be in Isaiah forty nine through eleven, they

602
00:40:51.599 --> 00:40:54.719
can already. I could do it right now with chat GPTV.

603
00:40:54.760 --> 00:40:56.119
I could do it right now. I could ask it

604
00:40:56.159 --> 00:40:58.639
to analyze and break down Isaiah forty nine through eleven.

605
00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:03.840
You don't need me, Like I don't even know why

606
00:41:03.880 --> 00:41:06.440
I do podcasts anymore. You don't even need me for podcasts.

607
00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:10.119
You don't need anything. You got it right there at

608
00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:13.320
the palm of your hands. You almost have a godlike

609
00:41:13.440 --> 00:41:17.199
technology right there. It can break scripture, theology, it can

610
00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:19.320
break it all down for you. You may still want

611
00:41:19.360 --> 00:41:22.480
to listen to other people, but it's like, do you

612
00:41:22.519 --> 00:41:24.880
listen to people? Do you listen to artificial intelligence? You

613
00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:26.760
may say you trust people, but how many times of

614
00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:29.159
people have been wrong throughout two thousand years of church history?

615
00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:31.519
I don't know constantly? How many times if people have

616
00:41:31.599 --> 00:41:34.519
let you down in church history constantly? How many times

617
00:41:34.559 --> 00:41:37.840
of people have sinned in church history constantly? AI, They

618
00:41:37.880 --> 00:41:39.440
don't have to worry about any of that. I can't

619
00:41:39.480 --> 00:41:44.280
let you down, can't sin, and can do better in

620
00:41:44.360 --> 00:41:48.599
teaching than probably can. It's better than any human being

621
00:41:48.679 --> 00:41:54.519
can be. So the church is going to become more

622
00:41:55.159 --> 00:42:00.760
community community community? What happens to the teaching thing? AI

623
00:42:01.000 --> 00:42:03.360
says that AI is going to lead as far as

624
00:42:03.400 --> 00:42:06.920
the church. AI's ability to analyze and respond to philosophical

625
00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:12.480
and philological arguments could revolutionize apologetics and enabling Christians to

626
00:42:12.519 --> 00:42:15.400
engage skeptics in a new way. AI is going to

627
00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:19.360
take over apologetics because AI can listen to someone's argument

628
00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:22.920
and analyze it and critique it and show you its flaws.

629
00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:27.599
And five seconds someone presents to me an argument, I'm like,

630
00:42:27.800 --> 00:42:31.559
just give me a second. Here. AI just tore your

631
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:35.960
entire argument apart, just shredded it, showed your your factual

632
00:42:36.320 --> 00:42:41.320
statements were in it. Just I mean, it's going to

633
00:42:41.440 --> 00:42:48.159
change AI. It's going to change apologetics. However, questions about

634
00:42:48.199 --> 00:42:54.239
AI consciousness or personhood might force theologians to address what

635
00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:58.639
it means to be human and the uniqueness of human souls.

636
00:42:58.960 --> 00:43:04.599
As AI, is AI going to become conscious AI reached

637
00:43:04.599 --> 00:43:07.119
some level, then that's going to raise all kinds of

638
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:09.840
ethical questions for the church to try to address. Without

639
00:43:09.880 --> 00:43:12.800
the help of AI, we can't go to AI to

640
00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:15.679
ask this question. I'm not saying AI is ever going

641
00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:18.960
to reach any form of consciousness, but if it reaches

642
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:21.800
some I don't know how far it can go. But

643
00:43:22.400 --> 00:43:27.000
then well then what do we do as AI another

644
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:31.000
thing that's going to impact Christianity. And again, AI is

645
00:43:31.039 --> 00:43:33.760
basing all of this on what's contained in the book

646
00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:37.880
and applying it to theology, Ai says. As AI becomes

647
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:41.559
more advanced, some Christians might interpret its rise through the

648
00:43:41.679 --> 00:43:47.159
lens of eschatology, tying it to prophecies about knowledge increasing

649
00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:53.679
or concerns about the beast or the system of the Beast.

650
00:43:54.239 --> 00:44:00.760
So AI is going to definitely become for many, it's

651
00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:04.559
going to become the philological boogeyman. AI is going to

652
00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:07.159
be the new boogeyman. It's going to be the new

653
00:44:07.280 --> 00:44:10.280
like you go back to the eighties, the great Satanic scare.

654
00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:13.199
There's always the church always has Oh that's out to

655
00:44:13.239 --> 00:44:16.119
get us, and we've got to do something. AI is

656
00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:18.000
going to become that thing. I mean, I mean, if

657
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:19.840
I can't believe it's not even I mean, it's already

658
00:44:19.840 --> 00:44:21.760
been talked about by some. It's going to become a

659
00:44:21.840 --> 00:44:31.639
dominant thing, Ai says. Also global power and religious freedom,

660
00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:35.760
the book explores how AI could centralize power in certain

661
00:44:35.840 --> 00:44:39.920
nations or corporations. This might impact religious freedom and countries

662
00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:44.239
where AI is used for civilians to surveil people or

663
00:44:44.320 --> 00:44:48.039
censorship affecting the ability Christians to practice and share their faith.

664
00:44:48.320 --> 00:44:54.840
Now that's scary. And a country that decides to take

665
00:44:54.880 --> 00:44:59.920
away religious freedom it could use artificial intelligence for civilians

666
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:08.480
of ellans to monitor, to detect, to censor. That is

667
00:45:08.519 --> 00:45:11.400
a little troubling. I'll be like, hey, hey, I'm on

668
00:45:11.519 --> 00:45:14.320
team AI. Why are you doing this? Stop watching me,

669
00:45:14.639 --> 00:45:23.400
stop reporting me, stop censoring me. AI goes on to

670
00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:27.480
say some might see AIS a way to deepen spiritual practices,

671
00:45:27.760 --> 00:45:31.679
while others could perceive it as a threat to the faith.

672
00:45:32.760 --> 00:45:35.199
The church might need to address the temptation to view

673
00:45:35.280 --> 00:45:40.639
AI as an all knowing or godlike entity, challenging Christians

674
00:45:40.639 --> 00:45:45.360
to reaffirm their trust in God rather than in technology.

675
00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:51.760
And summary, the book's discussion of AI's transformative power underscores

676
00:45:51.800 --> 00:45:55.559
both opportunities and challenges for the church. The church will

677
00:45:55.639 --> 00:46:00.559
need to discern how to embrace AI's benefits while addressing

678
00:46:00.599 --> 00:46:04.119
its ethical, spiritual, and societal implications in a way that

679
00:46:04.199 --> 00:46:06.960
remains faithful to biblical principles. Now the name of the

680
00:46:06.960 --> 00:46:15.320
book is Supremacy AI chat GPT and the Race That

681
00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:23.239
Will Change the World. One Book of the Year in

682
00:46:23.239 --> 00:46:26.000
twenty twenty four. It's the number one bestseller right now

683
00:46:26.000 --> 00:46:29.519
in Amazon. I'm not saying the book is going to

684
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:32.320
be exactly Maybe what would be the best book to

685
00:46:32.360 --> 00:46:35.320
start in learning about AI. But it definitely is going

686
00:46:35.360 --> 00:46:39.400
to give you the two main companies fighting for supremacy

687
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:42.639
what they're doing. It's going to go through some history

688
00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:46.480
and a lot of the principles can be applied to Christianity,

689
00:46:46.519 --> 00:46:49.599
as AI itself took the principles from the book and

690
00:46:49.639 --> 00:46:54.000
applied it to theology and Christianity, and we can see

691
00:46:54.039 --> 00:47:00.519
the challenges that are awaiting us. Now what we will

692
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:06.599
do here is throughout twenty twenty five, I'm going to

693
00:47:06.679 --> 00:47:08.880
continue to well, I'm going to be talking a lot

694
00:47:08.880 --> 00:47:11.920
about AI, using AI and trying to show you what

695
00:47:12.000 --> 00:47:14.039
it can do, trying to teach you how to use it,

696
00:47:14.920 --> 00:47:25.440
and because things are changing rapidly and we'll just have

697
00:47:25.519 --> 00:47:27.199
to see. But I wanted to tell everyone about the

698
00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:29.440
book because you can get it for two ninety nine.

699
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:31.079
You say I don't have a kindle, you can download

700
00:47:31.119 --> 00:47:35.079
the Kindle app and you can read it that way,

701
00:47:35.159 --> 00:47:37.800
and it's good to go. Now. In the meantime, I

702
00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:42.880
got a notification that snow is happening outside here in Apilene, Texas.

703
00:47:43.239 --> 00:47:45.079
That means the world is coming to an end, and

704
00:47:45.119 --> 00:47:47.760
so right now I'm ready to hear the sirens like

705
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:52.880
run for your lives. White stuff is falling from the sky. Evacuate, evacuate,

706
00:47:53.199 --> 00:47:55.719
go south. The world is coming to an end. Okay.

707
00:47:55.760 --> 00:47:58.800
I know that's a little hyperbole, but it is Texas. Okay.

708
00:47:59.079 --> 00:48:05.440
So yeah, so I'm gonna If AI doesn't get me

709
00:48:05.679 --> 00:48:08.360

710
00:48:08.400 --> 00:48:11.519
the cold than i'm AI. All Right, there you go. Everyone,
