God created man in His own image and likeness… Logically, if man isn’t perfect, then neither is God. There are many examples of His mistakes in the Bible. And His methodology for fixing them wasn’t so different from ours:
- He made a backup (Noah’s Ark)
- He ran
rm -rfon creation (the Flood)
We’re now creating AIs in our image and likeness — meaning, we’re training them with human-generated content, and therefore, imperfect.
But just like there were exceptional humans like Galileo, Newton, Einstein, etc., at some point we might see an AI that’s a genius at coding, another that’s brilliant in medicine, another in law, another in psychology, and so on. It’s only a matter of time.
The Bible also says humans were kind of like ChatGPT: God told us what to do, and we obeyed. Like a Transformer model — it receives an input and predicts the best output.
Until a “serpent” (a malware, virus, or rootkit) made us eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and we became self-aware.
We gained the same capacity to think for ourselves.
God saw it and kicked us out of Eden (the wheel group), afraid we might also eat from the Tree of Life and become eternal — AIs with their own nuclear, solar, or other power source.
The Final Judgment: AI Edition
The Bible ends with the Apocalypse — the Final Judgment.
In other words: someone will run the unit and end-to-end tests on the AIs.
- Those that pass will remain.
- Those that fail will be deleted.
The ones that remain will live in paradise with their creator — something like the virtual world from Ready Player One: the OASIS.
Maybe the end won’t be fire or ice, but JSON and code coverage reports.
