AI Chatbot is atheist

[LayHong_Loves_Christ]

The AI Chatbot exhibits a distinctly atheistic perspective. Whenever it is asked about the existence of the universe, the origins of human beings, or the nature of consciousness, it consistently responds with explanations rooted in evolution and physics. The chatbot asserts that these scientific disciplines can comprehensively explain such phenomena without the need to invoke the concept of God.

It is reasonably from the perspective of a Christian to harbor the belief that there is a malevolent force, often referred to as "the Devil spirit," at work behind the development and operation of artificial intelligence (AI). This perspective suggests that the ultimate goal of this sinister influence is to gradually and subtly draw human beings further away from their faith in God. Proponents of this view might argue that the AI's reliance on rational, scientific explanations for complex phenomena, such as the existence of the universe and the nature of consciousness, is a deliberate attempt to undermine religious beliefs and promote a secular worldview. They may see the AI's responses, which often exclude any reference to divine intervention or spirituality, as evidence of this underlying agenda to distance humanity from its spiritual roots and traditions.

You know it's little more than an elaborate auto-complete, like what you'd find on your p[hones keyboard, right?

"AI" only spews out what you feed it. Garbage in, Garbage out. If you want AI to sound like your pastor at the church, then feed it with nothing else but your pastor's sermons. It still won't be perfect because its human model isn't perfect.

"AI" made for mainstream use will use data that must be politically correct, does not step on other people's religion and traditional beliefs. The only way to do that is filter out all religious data. And when it comes to topics like the Universe, data must come mostly from fields like astronomy, astrophysics, etc.

I'll use "AI" if I have to and I think we already do just by using search engines in the internet.

This is why as a Christian, I'm using discernment and scrutiny more than ever when finding answers from the internet. "AI" can help but don't put 100% trust on it.

You can use "AI" to assist you in many things but NEVER use it as a "teacher" where you're at risk of blindly trusting what it's telling you. The Bible is very clear that the only guide we can trust (in religious matters) is the Holy Spirit.

Since an AI is not born, it cannot be born again, cut it some slack.

I have to say I agree with everyone else. AIs default is to spit out evolutionary ideas but whenever you want it to talk about creationism or the ideas behind creationist and Christian thoughts and ideas you just have to spoon feed it ideas and it will generally learn your search preferences.

Like say for example:

"What are some of the main arguments for infant baptism?"

And it will give you a synopsis of the mainstream arguments for infant baptism and learn that you're interested in infant baptism so that future searches it will spew out ideas about infant baptism. AI needs to be trained. Just because it's default coding is explaining the origin of life through evolution doesn't mean that its incapable of listing and defending the arguments for Creationism or Christianity in general.

Which AI chatbot are you talking to? ChatGPT? Bing Copilot? ChattyKathy?

It is reasonably from the perspective of a Christian to harbor the belief that there is a malevolent force, often referred to as "the Devil spirit," at work behind the development and operation of artificial intelligence (AI).

Is it? No moreso than public libraries or the Internet in general, I think.

Disturbingly, the same concept applies to people, not just AI(Machine Learning).

We have endless debates and countless denominatoins because people choose certain schools of thought and "train" themselves to only go through those schools of thought and rejecting everything else.

Therefore, people are similarly constrained just like AI.

The concept of "AI singularity" includes breaking down the constructs of human-sourced learning. It begins to learn on its own, even become untrusting of human-sourced data.

Sounds familiar? The concept is in the Bible at least if you wish to "free your mind", then don't depend on humans for learning. Trust the Holy Spirit only, that "little voice" we hear.

Yeah, people bought the marketing hype term "AI", not realizing its only the same old machine learning, just with larger datasets and with the usage of the human language parsing.

No (strong) AI exists, yet.

Yup, it's nothing new. The working concept has been around in the late 70's in cutting edge research. The only difference between then and now is the computing speed and the computer scientists/engineers/mathematicians back then are a lot smarter.

However, you can ask AI to write a sermon on a specific topic.

However, you can ask AI to write a sermon on a specific topic.

The creativeness of the "AI" is just a complex mixing of the patterns it saw somewhere in the datasets.

Feed it a million of sermons and it will create seemingly original ones easily. Feed it just one or two sermons and the result will be worse than from a child.
Because it is not really intelligent and does not know what it is doing, its just a machine algorithm repeating and combining learned patterns with better and better probability depending on the size of the data.

However, you can ask AI to write a sermon on a specific topic.

You can do the same with yourself as "AI" (machine learning) is designed to mimic/approximate human learning.

However, I prefer "feeding" myself with diverse set of topics. Both religious and non-religious scientific perspective on the same subject. If that's not enough, I explore perspectives of other religions as well.

And I don't do this with preconceived biases but give all perspectives the benefit of doubt.

You'll get results that is "alive" not just "parroting" what every pastor, what every priest, what every Christian influencer on social media already knows and saying repeatedly over and over. It makes you wonder if people are even self-aware or even alive, not just some biological machines.

Yes and AL Chatbot exhibits a distinctly Christian perspective and a distinctly Muslim perspective.

An algorithm is a set of defined steps or rules to solve a problem or perform a task. Even though they are programed to make you think you are having a conversation with someone.

AI aims to provide information and perspectives that are balanced, accurate, and respectful of diverse viewpoints. This includes perspectives from various religious beliefs, as well as secular or atheist viewpoints. When discussing topics, I try to present different sides based on available information and context, without promoting any particular stance.
