Any number of things have the potential for much death, but God is indeed in control and we who are 'In Christ' have read the last chapter--so we share "the reason for the Hope that is in us". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

("Why are they disquieted in vain?" Psalm 39:6) It's actually akin to an old sales technique, to get people to react emotionally and hopefully buy whatever is being peddled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike plagues and natural disasters it's not threatening when taken at face value, but lost jobs when the AI grows more advanced will certainly create problems. I imagine it's going to be another can of worms when people start using it to study and mimic people who were incredibly charismatic speakers and then that's used to deceive the masses. But again, God knew it was going to happen in advance so nothing is happening that He hasn't allowed and planned for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
