A recent exchange with a reasoning AI pertaining to Matthew 24:15-30

[doctrox]

If you are reading this then you are using artificial intelligence. Perhaps you didn't realise.

The point made is that I do not countenance A.I., and neither should any discerning believer.

countenance = sanction or approve. My postings do not involve approval of, consultation with, or submission to, A.I..

It`s not `intelligence` it is just a computer, wires and connections that search out by `oo`s and 1`s and then matched to letters.

Things, of themselves, are not sin (nor are they "intelligent'). Rather, it always boils down to this: Who do you look to, for the authority to do the things that you do?

As Marilyn C said:

There are people trying to get us to trust and believe that this is a `person, entity` that can think.

Yes, however, this "entity" has been consecrated to Satan's service aka accursed, which means he can and does use it to spiritual effect...

IOW, show me a verse where God prohibits A.I. from being utilized demonically.

To further explain, inanimate objects can be diabolically controlled through curses. (I personally recognize the curse that is A.I..)

A curse is simply a demon sent to do some harm. That is, through the permission of the one who has rights over an object, a demon attaches itself to the object and inflicts harm through it. Question: What entity has the rights over A.I.?

If it will make everyone happy, from this point on I'm no longer going to use AI in this manner. I did not say I'm going to quit using AI. I said in this manner. Huge difference.

EDITED TO ADD:

On 2nd thought I decided to repent of this. Not repent of using an AI in this manner, but am repenting of deciding to no longer use an AI in this manner. I'm going to continue using AIs from time to time in the manner I have in this thread. If nothing else, at least AIs are capable of articulating my view of things better than I am at times. Some complain I'm hard to follow at times. Yet no AI I have encountered finds me hard to follow at times.

The point is, in general, who is being logical throughout here. @Spiritual Israelite or this AI? BTW, my logic matches the AI's logic. I did not get my logic from the AI nor did it get it's logic via me. Yet our logic is basically the same pertaining to these verses in question. Plus, @Spiritual Israelite has been asking me for ages how verses 15-21 can not mean 70 AD, but is meaning the 21st century and is meaning spiritually rather than literally. The AI actually addresses and answers that at the end of the OP. One can either agree that it's answers are reasonable, or one can agree it's nonsensical instead. Either way, at least a solution is provided.

For starters, this is the Eschatology & Prophecy Forum - not the "Ask A.I. Forum." Perhaps, one day soon, "Christian" sites such as this will have at least one forum dedicated to all things A.I. (it's nearly there now).

You can't play with this snake (even a broken clock is right twice a day). The OP is presumptuous and fails to acknowledge the source of all true discernment and wisdom, which is the Holy Spirit. Thus, it is doomed to failure.

Essentially, you're asking the readership to choose between the two of you based on a level of "logic" and A.I. involvement. So you're starting out with at least one foot in the grave already. I'll leave you to it.

The OP is my position and someone else's position. The AI is simply examining strengths and weaknesses in each position. No one pertaining to the OP is getting their theology from an AI. No AI to date has ever caused me to change my position about anything.
