Yesterday, I posted on  CAN YOU CHAT WITH AN AI GOD ?       That seems somewhat frivolous in the world of Artificial Intelligence when there are more serious existential threats. Ongoing is a race for  Artificial General Intelligence  ( AGI ) that is beginning to impact on the geopolitical world as  First Strike  and the resultant  Nuclear Winter  did during the late Cold War in the mid-1980s. It is debatable whether AGI has attained an operable state, but countries and companies are taking this quite seriously, as a prelude to ASI, or Artificial Super Intelligence, when machines surpass human capabilities on cognitive tasks, when we are outperformed across every domain by a wide margin. When?   The timing of AGI ranges from very soon to the late 2020s to mid century to never. The uncomfortable fear is that AGI represents an existential risk. AI has already surpassed humans on a variety of language, understanding and visual ben...

About the matter of speaking to God, the Pew Research Center reports that  75% of Americans talk to God , and a little more than a third said God talks back.  From 1995,  Neale Donald Walsch  began to write a series of books called  Conversations with God ?   Struck a nerve. Book 1 became a publishing sensation, staying on The  New York Times  Best Sellers list for 137 weeks. He purported to actually speak to God, and his readers believed him. Recorded three thousand pages of material in nine books. So for my more modern Artificial Intelligence look at religion, where better then to search for AI spiritual chats by asking  Google AI Overview : Apps like   Bible Chat, Chat with God AI, and Text With Jesus   offer AI-powered chatbots for conversing with biblical figures or accessing scripture-based answers to spiritual questions.   These apps provide a platform for users to find comfort, guidance, and inspiration, though they are...

GPT-3 was asked, does God exist?   You can click on that to get the answer.  Very closely reflects my views.  GPT-3 is the third generation Generative Pre-trained Transformer developed by OpenAI. Okay, but before I delve further into this subject, what do some human thinkers think about the existence of God and an afterlife? Here is  Michio Kaku 14 years ago on God .  Close to my thoughts. Today, he says he believes in the  God of Einstein . So what is the  God of Einstein ? Einstein was an agnostic, but not an atheist. He also did not believe in an afterlife. But he believed in Spinoza's God. So what is  Spinoza's God ?  Good luck attempting to comprehend this form of metaphysics. What about the richest person in world, Elon Musk?   We have similar conceptualizations. What about  ChatGPT , which is a chatbot developed by OpenAI ( Sam Altman's company ) and has over 100 million users.  Here is where it gets somewhat abstruse: C...
