00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:09.720
You're listening to kf I AM six
on demand. Artificial intelligence AI. It's

2
00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:12.880
something that has been around for some
time. As a matter of fact,

3
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:22.280
the term comes from the nineteen fifties
and the definition is being honed as the

4
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:28.079
technology is being honed, and more
and more people are concerned about what this

5
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:33.560
means and what it's going to mean
to the world and humanity and jobs and

6
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:43.640
all new technology does those things.
All new tech makes people concerned. The

7
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:54.280
change of anything new is a big, huge fear with many people because change

8
00:00:54.280 --> 00:01:03.560
can be scary. Technology has another
level, another layer of concern, because

9
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:11.959
it seems like it's something that can
run away. Technology is often not fully

10
00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:18.079
understood by everyone. Therefore it becomes
even more scary. And it's not that

11
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:26.840
technology doesn't contain a certain level of
fear inherently. But when it comes to

12
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:32.920
AI, I want to compare it
to some things in scripture, and we'll

13
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:37.439
get to that in a moment,
But I want you to first know about

14
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:46.799
what AI is. What makes artificial
intelligence? What does that mean? Well,

15
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:52.680
it needs to learn. The key
to AI is that it's focused on

16
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:57.359
acquiring as much data as it can, just gathering as much as it can

17
00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:09.000
understanding rules, understanding patterns. Now, these rules they call algorithms, and

18
00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:21.199
they basically tell the computer, this
large, just phenomenal calculator, how to

19
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:25.680
put these things in the proper order. So if there is a specific task

20
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:34.919
at hand it can teach. It
can be taught rather by programmers. In

21
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:40.280
addition to that, everyone that uses
it becomes a programmer of sort, because

22
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:50.039
they put in questions and information and
it grows and it thinks that's the purpose,

23
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:53.080
and it learns these tasks. So
they call them prompts. And when

24
00:02:53.080 --> 00:03:00.439
you prompt the artificial intelligence, it
grows, it learns more, or by

25
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:09.039
even the mere asking of a question, it starts to reason. This is

26
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:22.120
choosing algorithms itself. Now it starts
to take those step by step instructions and

27
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:29.159
uses and mixes them to use them
in the proper order for the outcome in

28
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:38.280
which is desired. The other hope
is that it can correct itself through under

29
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:47.000
more understanding, more information, more
prompting. It starts to fine tune the

30
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:52.840
algorithm itself, so not just the
program that was put inside it, but

31
00:03:53.039 --> 00:04:00.439
now uses them the different information to
grow. Now, creativity is an interesting

32
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:05.479
thing which is part of this,
as well, because it's using all these

33
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:15.919
networks of information that are based on
rules, because that's how computers think,

34
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:23.720
based on rules and outcome and input. And it uses stats to start to

35
00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:32.720
generate all kinds of things from music, images, text, all kinds of

36
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:38.720
things. So the importance of this
and you've been using it for a lot

37
00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:46.040
longer than you think it just you're
using new styles of it because you use

38
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:56.120
it for you know, calculator is
the purest and not really growing. It

39
00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:01.839
doesn't grow like artificial intelligence, but
it uses artificial intelligence to do mathematic equations.

40
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:06.240
And you if you've ever seen an
engineerial calculator, that gets even more

41
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:14.319
complicated and these things begin to grow. And I talk about this because there

42
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:20.759
are some there are some thoughts out
there, and there are some scientific input

43
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:25.920
that talk about something called the singularity, and we're not going to get into

44
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:30.160
the complexities of all of that and
what that means. But it really gets

45
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:41.160
to the point where machines can basically
duplicate the human brain. And that becomes

46
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:46.519
scary, right, that becomes scary
because you're looking at all these possibilities there.

47
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:50.560
What does that mean? Well,
in some ways, prior to that,

48
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:58.360
the concept that every doctor, every
engineer, or every great thinker can

49
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:09.079
put thoughts into something and have them
collated and brought together as one big container

50
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:15.399
of ideas is wonderful. Now you've
got many doctors working together and putting these

51
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:20.959
ideas, and they start sorting them
out and can come up with new information,

52
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:30.839
new experiments, all of these things
through artificial intelligence. But this brings

53
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:39.040
us to the purpose of this show, and this show is about hope and

54
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:46.199
morality and faith and understanding of the
things of God and what your part is

55
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:55.600
in this life here and after here. So you go, you have to

56
00:06:55.600 --> 00:07:02.839
go back to Genesis. Genesis one
twenty seven says, so God created mankind

57
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:10.800
in his own image, in the
image of God. He created them male

58
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:20.360
and female. He created them.
And then the question moves from God creating,

59
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:30.360
But what is the own image?
In the Latin the term is imago

60
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:36.199
day the image of God. And
many, many theologians go back and forth

61
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:44.199
as to what this is and what
it means. There are those that talk

62
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:50.160
about the spirit. John four twenty
four says God is spirit, So does

63
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:57.199
that mean that humans are spirit?
Well, humans do have a spirit,

64
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:05.439
Humans do have a soul, but
they do have flesh as well. They

65
00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:16.560
have a tangible, tactile part of
who you are. You have a conscience,

66
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:33.399
you understand laws, you desire in
your original form to move from evil.

67
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:46.320
Scripture says resist the devil and he
shall flee. That is the reality

68
00:08:48.440 --> 00:09:00.840
that comes from being created in the
image of God, AI, artificial intelligence,

69
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:05.600
and the Bible. What does all
this mean, How does it come

70
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.679
together? Well, more and more
will be known, but I assure you

71
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:16.000
even AI will be something that can
be used to the glory of God and

72
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:22.600
for the furthering of the Gospel,
and that the Father has a plan.

73
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:31.360
God is not surprised. I think
it's wonderful that there are followers of such

74
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:39.759
great faith and defense and the desire
to defend God and all that is wonderful.

75
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:43.720
An important part of sharing your faith
to not be wishy washy, but

76
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:50.279
also to know that God has not
fallen off his throne. And it's not

77
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:58.120
like God is surprised by these things. God lives outside of time. Everything

78
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:03.840
that can happen or will happen,
has happened in the mind of God,

79
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:11.120
so no one's being surprised by any
of this. When it comes to the

80
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:18.559
Godhead created in the image of God. Many different views as to what that

81
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:24.080
is. To simplify it, some
theologians have said that it is being created

82
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:31.600
with intellect, will, and emotion, and there's great power in understanding that

83
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:46.559
intellect, will and emotion at best. At best AI will be able to

84
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:54.240
at least mimic the first two.
And you can debate whether will is going

85
00:10:54.279 --> 00:11:07.279
to be something real or a complexity
of rules and algorithms that says you have

86
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:18.080
to get to the end of this
task. Now, emotion, that is

87
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:24.799
an important part. As a matter
of fact, the combination of having intellect,

88
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:31.039
will, and emotion sets you apart
in many different ways. That means

89
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:37.480
that having the combination of those things
intellect, understanding things, knowing things,

90
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:46.360
having information is great, but it's
not wisdom. Will is something that may

91
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:54.440
attach itself to intellect and may not. There are times you make decisions that

92
00:11:54.480 --> 00:12:03.200
are emotional and it can be a
train wreck. But there are times that

93
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:09.840
you make decisions in a combination of
your intellect and your will that make you

94
00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:20.720
beyond a calculation. Now you continue
to shuffle that deck again and you get

95
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:33.960
this third option of emotion and what
that plays. But God has a special

96
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:46.799
place for emotion that a machine will
never truly understand. Artificial intelligence, it's

97
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:58.399
a simulation of human intelligence, and
it happens to be processed by machines now,

98
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:05.440
believe it or not. The brain
still has more computing power. One

99
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:16.480
brain has more computing power than what
machines can do. Still, but that

100
00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:24.600
will change. More and more abilities
come and technology changes quite quickly, roughly

101
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:31.559
about every six months when it comes
to this kind of tech, and sometimes

102
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:35.799
even quicker. With the systems that
are using multiple you know, they're open

103
00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:41.399
to the public and everybody is inputting
that it is growing. The mind is

104
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:46.399
growing. Information is coming in at
lightning speed. If you've ever been around

105
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:54.480
young children, it's amazing the things
that they absorb, and not just what's

106
00:13:54.480 --> 00:14:01.039
in front of them, but the
periphery constantly consuming information. And these systems

107
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:11.759
will grow. They'll process language,
they'll start to understand speech recognition, visuals,

108
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:16.960
be able to see all kinds of
things and understand them more and more.

109
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:26.320
The separation between what God has created
and what man has created is the

110
00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:39.159
intellect, will, and emotion.
Those three things come into play as that

111
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:50.600
of being created in the image of
God. Even animals have intellect and can

112
00:14:50.679 --> 00:15:00.159
have emotion most certainly, but don't
have will. They only have instinct to

113
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:07.639
fulfill their simple needs. And I
know that confuses some people because they an

114
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:20.120
anthropomorphosize rather the animal, but their
decisions are different. They're just on instinct

115
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:30.039
rather than will. And that those
three are very important because a machine can't

116
00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:35.720
have emotion. Now, a machine
might be able to mimic it, but

117
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:43.440
being able to combine all of those
things in one decision is where the difficulty

118
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:52.720
will lie. Because computations are made
for outcomes, right, so the machine

119
00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:58.679
learning is looking to solve a puzzle
or to create some sort of outcome.

120
00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:08.440
Now, the original AI was considered
to be a sentence builder, So by

121
00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:14.279
being a sentence builder, it was
only looking forward basically to the next word,

122
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:21.120
What is the most logical word to
come after this word, and then

123
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:25.600
so on and so on and so
on, based on the prompt or the

124
00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:30.519
question at hand, and it would
take all the information it had from the

125
00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:37.039
prompt, from the gathering of information. In some of these cases it's what's

126
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:45.039
on the internet and or combined by
input people actually just inputting information into it

127
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:49.200
depending on the need. So if
it's working for a particular company, that

128
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:56.120
it's focusing on whatever it might be
focusing on. Then it was designed to

129
00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:03.960
find the best next word in the
sense for that task. They're getting better

130
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:11.599
and better as to wait the way
they think AI machines that some are believing

131
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:19.079
that they're becoming more than just a
gatherer of information and being able to put

132
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:27.720
the sentence together in an answer form. However, when scripture says that you

133
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:34.559
are created in the image of God, and theologians often believe that that is

134
00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:44.599
the combination of intellect, will and
emotion and having a soul that can't be

135
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:49.880
computed, many people don't even understand
what that would be unto itself. What

136
00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:57.000
ends up happening to the material body
is known pretty clearly. Ashes to ashes,

137
00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:04.359
dust to dust, It goes back
to the ground, the energy changes,

138
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:11.559
there's decay for those that cremate,
it turns into its most basic form

139
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:22.400
and carbon, and the body goes
away. But there's something else outside of

140
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:33.640
that that thinks and feels and understands
and emotes. There's a yearning to know

141
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:42.279
about meaning and understanding and purpose that
can't be duplicated. Now you can mimic

142
00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:52.720
it. Goodness in Disney Walt Disney
very early on was at the forefront of

143
00:18:52.759 --> 00:19:03.079
animatronics, of making machines move similar
to how a body moves, piping in

144
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:14.799
speakers and sound. You can do
your own studies on those early days of

145
00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:21.880
Walt Disney and the Disneyland parks and
resorts. But some of the most interesting

146
00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:27.279
things were that they tackled where to
put the speakers. They didn't put them

147
00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:33.640
in the actual mouth of the animatronic. They had to put it in a

148
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:37.079
place that it could be clear and
could be heard, but it had to

149
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:41.720
be around that area. You had
to hear it coming out of the mouth

150
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:49.759
to make it be reasonable. So
you can mimic things, and AI will

151
00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:56.680
mimic and it will think the way
machines think by the input, but you'll

152
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:04.160
never have the emotion part. You
can get the intellect, no problem,

153
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:11.799
and you can get will in quotes, because it's going to desire an outcome.

154
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:17.680
It's told to find something, it's
told to answer a question, whatever

155
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:22.359
it might be. It's going to
want to desire to get to that outcome.

156
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:34.000
But the emotion part is that subtlety
of humanity that when tossed into that

157
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:44.319
trio of intellect, will and emotion
becomes something completely different. These are the

158
00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:52.920
things that are going to be powerful
in the understanding and the separation of what

159
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.359
AI is and what it will do. And the fear, I get it.

160
00:20:57.599 --> 00:21:00.680
The fear is that it's going to
take over things, and it will

161
00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:08.279
take over jobs for sure. Understanding
and learning how to prompt and utilize what

162
00:21:08.359 --> 00:21:14.920
AI is is going to be a
powerful part of that for humans to be

163
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:21.319
comfortable and understanding what it is and
do those things. Will a machine be

164
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:30.279
able to love? No? Will
a machine be able to approximate, approximate

165
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:38.319
or kind of calculate a love response. Sure, you can mimic things,

166
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:45.480
but will it truly understand what that
means? Will it truly understand what its

167
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:56.160
existence is? Will it have faith? Will it have hope? No?

168
00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:00.640
Those things are more than an equation. There outside of equations, as a

169
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:07.680
matter of fact, most of the
time, they're fairly illogical. And with

170
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:17.880
something based on logic, with something
based on a task and creating a completion

171
00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:22.200
of that task, you become a
machine. And the reason why you aren't

172
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:29.000
a machine? I get this question
all the time. Well, what about

173
00:22:30.559 --> 00:22:36.839
why didn't God just create a world
that loved him and obeyed him, because

174
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:42.599
once you do that and take away
free will, you can't have love.

175
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:55.759
Love can't exist through dictatorship. Love
is a process of choices, some of

176
00:22:55.799 --> 00:23:03.599
them reasonable, some of them not
so reasonable. So the whole reason that

177
00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:11.839
this world is a mess is because
people have free will, and the only

178
00:23:12.039 --> 00:23:19.279
reason that it makes it worth it
is because through this mess you can make

179
00:23:19.359 --> 00:23:30.279
decisions with intellect, will and emotion
to not be a mess. So the

180
00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:36.119
people that are out there that are
swarming stores and stealing from them, that

181
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:38.799
people that are mugging, the people
that are doing horrible things are breaking along.

182
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:44.000
They are choosing to do that they
do not have to. They have

183
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:48.839
the intellect, will, and emotion
not to they are using it for evil.

184
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:52.720
The whole purpose of the Gospel of
Good News is to remind you that

185
00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:57.240
God loves you and there is a
way, a place for you, a

186
00:23:57.279 --> 00:24:02.920
path for you to the things that
God has. Bad things will happen to

187
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:10.359
Christians not because God wants them to, but because God allows them to.

188
00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:17.240
Because it's easy to love in times
of peace when things are going right.

189
00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:22.880
It is hard to love when things
are not. And the only true love

190
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:29.559
will come out of the ability of
knowing that you don't have to. These

191
00:24:29.599 --> 00:24:37.960
are the things that will never ever
be captured with AI. So wrapping up

192
00:24:38.880 --> 00:24:49.920
my thoughts on artificial intelligence and the
creation of humanity and those words in Genesis

193
00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:56.119
one about being created in the image
of God, It's believed that three things

194
00:24:56.160 --> 00:25:03.160
are part of that intellect, will, and emotion. So when it comes

195
00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:10.079
to dealing with artificial intelligence, the
fear of where it may go and where

196
00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:15.559
it may lead, Well, you
may get intellect, you may get a

197
00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:23.799
form of will because it's going to
have a mechanical desire to complete the task

198
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:33.200
put forth for the machine, but
emotion is going to be a missing piece.

199
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:40.319
You'll start to maybe find a way
to replicate it or make it look

200
00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:49.519
like but you'll never truly be able
to capture that third thing, which is

201
00:25:49.799 --> 00:26:00.440
unique in the process of those three
things to humans. Animals don't have will,

202
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:12.160
they have instinct. Humans surpass that
with will and that makes for a

203
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:26.079
very different experience, decision making tool
that can't be just duplicated. So how

204
00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:33.880
do you combat as a human?
How do you combat the fears you have?

205
00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:41.680
With AI? You become more human, You must be more human.

206
00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:49.799
That means being kind, connecting with
people, it says in scripture it's not

207
00:26:49.880 --> 00:27:00.759
good for humans to be alone.
That means connecting with others, love others,

208
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:11.960
doing a kindness for others. Ultimately, a machine is out for itself.

209
00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:19.200
The reward system is based on itself. It's selfish by nature. It's

210
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:27.920
consuming all the ideas alone and kind
of being told what to do. But

211
00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:36.440
with that comes no morality. There's
no morality in ones and zeros. There's

212
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:42.400
morality and intellect, will and emotion
coming together to make decisions. Stop being

213
00:27:42.440 --> 00:27:51.000
a machine that serves itself, Start
being a human that serves others. And

214
00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:59.200
I will never ever be able to
replicate that. Kf I AIX on demand
