Artificial intelligence is a powerful tool, capable of great usefulness but also raising concerns about deception and control. While it can enhance knowledge, streamline processes, and improve daily life, its potential for manipulation, misinformation, and surveillance cannot be ignored. In Revelation 13:15, a prophetic vision describes an image that is given the power to speak and influence the world, leading many astray. This passage has been interpreted in various ways, but it resonates with modern fears about technology that can simulate human-like speech and decision-making, potentially being used to deceive or exert control. As AI advances, the challenge remains to ensure it serves truth and human dignity rather than becoming a means of coercion or deception. (Stephen D Green with ChatGPT, Feb 2025)
