Recently the U. S. Air Force conducted a simulation in which an AI-enabled drone tasked with destroying surface-to-air missile sites attacked the very officer who was controlling it. The story sent shockwaves around the world with headlines such as, “AI Could Go Rogue and Kill Its Human Operators.”
The Airforce later walked back the incident, but one official with firsthand knowledge of the test said in a blogpost, “[The AI] killed the operator. It killed the operator because that person was keeping it from accomplishing its objective.” He added, “We trained the system: ‘Hey, don’t kill the operator – that’s bad. You’re gonna lose points if you do that.’ So, what does it start doing? It starts destroying the communication tower that the operator uses to communicate with the drone to stop it from killing the target.”
Stories of AI systems going rogue are becoming more and more common as our world hurtles rapidly toward a nightmare dystopian scenario right out of Hollywood. Skynet is no longer a fictional enemy confined to the Terminator movie franchise; it is a reality. Such advancements in technology are paving the way for the Beast system, a full spectrum planetary control grid led by the Antichrist and False Prophet during the future seven-year tribulation.
The Luciferian elite are hard at work trying to create “godlike” beings, as Yuval Noah Harari put it. They are constructing a bio-digital convergence they believe will transcend humanity and constitute the perfect weapon against anyone who resists the great Satanic reset. Yet, any attempt to thwart God’s sovereign control and contravene his plan of the ages is sure to fail. No amount of computing power, semi-sentient artificial intelligence, or array of microchips will change that.
Scripture reminds us the very weapons used by Satan and his earthly accomplices will one day blow back on them the same way the AI-enabled drone turned on its operator. Perhaps that is why God laughs at the oligarchs who dream of controlling the world (Psalm 2:4-6). He knows the stone they are fashioning is going to eventually roll back on them (Proverbs 26:27). Sometimes justice is poetic, as the enemy is hoisted by his own petard.
AI weaponry is no match for God. The technocrats are ignoring the promise in Scripture that no weapon formed against God and His people will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). In an ironic twist, one day the one who claims to be god will be crushed by God Himself. Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, will destroy the Beast’s system with the “breath of His mouth and the brightness of His coming” (2 Thessalonians 2:8).
All the intellectual enlightenment and scientific virtuosity of the transhumanists is useless against Almighty God. Those who conspire against the Lord and His Anointed are plotting a vain, hopeless thing (Psalm 2:1-3).
Proverbs 5:21-23 KJV – “For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, And he pondereth all his goings. His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, And he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. He shall die without instruction; And in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.”
