Important Takeaways:
- Microsoft founder Bill Gates has made it clear: AI is poised to change the world as we know it, and we need to start readying ourselves for that not-so-distant future.
- “Soon after the first automobiles were on the road, there was the first car crash,” the billionaire wrote in a Tuesday post on his personal blog. “But we didn’t ban cars,” he added, arguing that we instead began to enforce “rules of the road.”
- “We’re now in the earliest stage of another profound change, the Age of AI,” he continued. “It’s analogous to those uncertain times before speed limits and seat belts.”
- Gates then went on to list a number of legitimate AI concerns that underscore the growing need for AI rules and regulations. At the top of Bill’s Bad List, notably, was the threat that AI poses to democratic election meddling and misinformation.
- “Deepfakes and misinformation generated by AI could undermine elections and democracy,” Gates wrote. “On a bigger scale, AI-generated deepfakes could be used to try to tilt an election. Of course, it doesn’t take sophisticated technology to sow doubt about the legitimate winner of an election, but AI will make it easier.”

Important Takeaways:
- PETA Uses ChatGPT to Rewrite Bible’s Book of Genesis to Make It Animal Rights ‘Friendly’
- The group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has used artificial intelligence, namely ChatGPT, to turn the Bible’s Book of Genesis into an animal rights religious message “filled with vegan teachings.”
- The left-wing organization is targeting its new modern version of the book to members of the GenZ generation. PETA is promoting its book as a “cruelty-free Story of Creation.”
- “The message in Genesis is that God created every sentient being, He saw that they were good, and He gave them greens for sustenance,” the organization said on its website.
- The book’s distortions of Genesis include:
- A revised version of the story is told in Chapter 21. According to the Bible, Abraham and Sarah were 100 and 90 years old when they had their son Isaac. But in the PETA version, they also adopt a dog named Herbie, emphasizing the importance to adopt dogs from a shelter or a rescue organization.
- A rewritten Chapter 22 in which Abraham travels to Moriah and befriends a lamb in order to show his reverence and respect for God’s creation rather than how the original Bible reveals how he was tested and proved faithful, so God spared his son Isaac and provided a substitute sacrifice of a ram as an offering.
- “The Bible has long been used to justify all forms of oppression, so we’ve used ChatGPT to make it clear that a loving God would never endorse exploitation of or cruelty to animals,” PETA President Ingrid Newkirk argued in a press release. “It took God only six days to create the entire world, but we realized it would take us years to rewrite the whole Bible, which is why we’ve started with just the first book.”
- CBN News reached out to PETA for comment. The organization responded by admitting they rewrote God’s Word just to make people start talking about their agenda.
- “We asked an AI to create The Book as a modern companion to the Bible, and we’re pleased with the results, because this complementary piece provides readers with moral lessons relevant to the world of the 21st century,” PETA told us. “We expected that The Book would initiate vital conversations about treating all sentient beings with dignity, kindness, and respect—and it has done exactly that!”

Important Takeaways:
- U.N. Seeks Options for Global Intervention, Governance over Artificial Intelligence
- A U.N. meeting titled “AI for Good Global Summit” begins in Geneva on Thursday seeking ways to advise the globalist organization on “governance issues” alongside efforts to control the spread of artificial intelligence (AI) and human augmentation.
- Some 3,000 experts from companies like Microsoft and Amazon as well as academics and NGO representatives are expected to take part alongside 40 U.N. sister agencies, all co-convened by the Government of Switzerland.
- They will be joined by dozens of robots, including several humanoids like Ai-Da, the first ultra-realistic robot artist; Ameca, the world’s most advanced life-like robot; the humanoid rock singer Desdemona; and Grace, the most advanced healthcare robot, AFP reports.
- “This technology is moving fast,” cautioned Doreen Bogdan-Martin, head of the International Telecommunication Union, the U.N.’s information and communications technology agency that convened the summit, echoing the warnings of others who see AI as fundamentally changing the world we live in – and not necessarily for the better.
- “We’re kind of in a perfect storm of suddenly having this powerful new technology — I don’t think it’s super-intelligent — being spread very widely and empowered in our lives, and we’re really not prepared,” serial AI entrepreneur Gary Marcus told AFP ahead of the Geneva meeting.
- “We’re at a critical moment in history when we can either get this right and build the global governance we need, or get it wrong and not succeed and wind up in a bad place where a few companies control the fates of many, many people without sufficient forethought,” he said.

Important Takeaways:
- Thousands flock to ‘AI Jesus’ for gaming, relationship advice
- A chatbot designed to resemble an ‘AI Jesus’ has attracted hundreds of Twitch users seeking gaming and relationship advice.
- The device, created by a Berlin tech collective, shows a bearded white man with a bright white halo who gestures as he answers questions having been “trained after Jesus and the teachings of the Bible.”
- Its “ask_jesus” livestream attracted over 35,000 followers and allowed viewers to ask questions.
- Asked to share views on topics such as abortion and gay rights, AI Jesus was found to provide vague, non-partisan replies, such as advising the user to look at the issues from legal and ethical perspectives.
- “Whether you’re seeking spiritual guidance, looking for a friend, or simply want someone to talk to, you can join on the journey through life and discover the power of faith, hope, and love,” said the bio for the “ask_jesus” Twitch page.

2 Peter 3:3-4 “Knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires. They will say, “Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation.”
Important Takeaways:
- What Keeps The Majority Christians From Acknowledging The Obvious? Time Is Running Out
- Author and commentator Jonathan Brentner asks the question “how can you not see the fulfilling of Bible prophecy wherever you look?”
- The re-birth and prospering of the nation of Israel
- The rise of artificial intelligence
- The preparation of the coming digital currency
- The use of a pandemic to hasten global government
- The rise of Mark of the Beast technology
- The rise of apostasy in the church the last 60 years
- The death of discernment
- Talk of a third temple in Israel
- The scoffing of Bible prophecy
- A cancel culture that cancels Christians
- The exponential rise of evil
- The rise of anti-Semitism
- The Silence of the Shepherds
- I personally believe that the root of today’s blindness to these facts is the silence of the church. Some 30 years ago, our seminaries dropped eschatology from their class line-up and pastors have not been trained in things to come. What a tragedy! At such a time as this, the shepherds are not equipped.
- Many pastors state they don’t wish to take a “controversial” stand when it comes to last days’ eschatology.

Important Takeaways:
- Forget college essays. Artificial intelligence has much bigger fish to fry.
- Biotech firm Insilico Medicine said Monday that it entered an “AI-discovered-and-designed” drug into Phase 2 clinical trials involving human subjects, a first for the industry. The robots: they may not be so bad after all.
- The sheer data-crunching and protein-identifying prowess of such systems could potentially cut development time in half, and development prices by even more, proponents often claim. In plain English: AI can complete complex math problems far faster than human scientists ever could. Thus, AI and ML tools could help develop 50 new drugs worth potentially $50 billion over the next decade, according to a Morgan Stanley report.
- The entire industry has already bet big on AI start-ups like Insilico:
- Investment in AI-led drug discovery hit roughly $25 billion in 2022, according to research firm Deep Pharma Intelligence, roughly triple what it was four years earlier. That contrasts with a nearly 37% year-over-year decline in VC investment in US and Europe biotech firms in 2022, according to EY.
- “Every major pharma company has invested in partnerships with at least one, if not multiple, AI companies,” Eric Topol, Scripps Research Translational Institute founder and director, told the FT.

Important Takeaways:
- AI-assisted fraud schemes could cost taxpayers $1 trillion in just 1 year, expert says
- Artificial intelligence smashed the floodgates to unprecedented fraud that could cost taxpayers hundreds of billions, if not $1 trillion, over the next 12 months, an expert told Fox News Digital.
- Haywood Talcove, CEO of LexisNexis Risk Solutions’ government division, which evaluates and predicts risk, said he’s already seeing criminals on the dark web using people’s faces to steal from government and state agencies.
- Benefits to America’s most vulnerable communities, such as Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, and unemployment, are ending up in the pockets of criminals and criminal enterprises that are operating all over the world.
- “Being one of the wealthiest countries in the world makes us a huge target,” Talcove said. “The amount of money that we’re going to lose over the next 12 months, if we do nothing, is going to make the COVID pandemic look like child’s play.”

Revelations 13:14 “…by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth…”
Important Takeaways:
- What are AI experts afraid of?
- More than 350 AI researchers and engineers recently issued a warning that AI poses risks comparable to those of “pandemics and nuclear war.”
- They fear that AI will become so superintelligent and powerful that it becomes autonomous and causes mass social disruption or even the eradication of the human race
- “This is not science fiction,” said Geoffrey Hinton, often called the “godfather of AI,” who recently left Google so he could sound a warning about AI’s risks. “A lot of smart people should be putting a lot of effort into figuring out how we deal with the possibility of AI taking over.”
- Hinton used to think the danger was at least 30 years away, but says AI is evolving into a superintelligence so rapidly that it may be smarter than humans in as little as five years.
- There are calls for moratoriums on its development, a government agency that would regulate AI, and an international regulatory body. AI’s mind-boggling ability to tie together all human knowledge, perceive patterns and correlations, and come up with creative solutions is very likely to do much good in the world, from curing diseases to fighting climate change. But creating an intelligence greater than our own also could lead to darker outcomes.

Revelations 13:14 “…by the signs that it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast it deceives those who dwell on earth…”
Important Takeaways:
- 42% of CEOs say AI could destroy humanity in five to ten years
- The survey, conducted at a virtual event held by Sonnenfeld’s Chief Executive Leadership Institute, found little consensus about the risks and opportunities linked to AI.
- The business leaders displayed a sharp divide over just how dangerous AI is to civilization.
- While 34% of CEOs said AI could potentially destroy humanity in ten years and 8% said that could happen in five years, 58% said that could never happen and they are “not worried.”
- In a separate question, Yale found that 42% of the CEOs surveyed say the potential catastrophe of AI is overstated, while 58% say it is not overstated.
- The findings come just weeks after dozens of AI industry leaders, academics and even some celebrities signed a statement warning of an “extinction” risk from AI.
- That statement, signed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Geoffrey Hinton, the “godfather of AI” and top executives from Google and Microsoft, called for society to take steps to guard against the dangers of AI.
- “Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war,” the statement said.
- The CEOs indicated AI will have the most transformative impact in three key industries: healthcare (48%), professional services/IT (35%) and media/digital (11%).

Romans 12:2 “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Important Takeaways:
- A.I. Chatbot Preaches at Church in Germany: ‘Looks Like the Unveiling of the Antichrist/Beast System’
- A unique sermon was delivered via artificial intelligence Friday in a Lutheran church in Germany.
- A ChatGPT chatbot asked the people in the fully packed St. Paul’s Church in the town of Fuerth to rise from the pews and praise the Lord.
- The bot was personified by an avatar of a bearded black man on a huge screen above the altar. It preached to more than 300 people who showed up for the experimental Lutheran church service, generated almost entirely by artificial intelligence.
- Those in the church listened attentively as the A.I. preached about leaving the past behind, focusing on the challenges of the present, overcoming fear of death, and never losing trust in Jesus Christ.
