Can Religion Adapt to Artificial Superintelligence?#bengoertzel #agi #ai #religion

I used to be a fundamentalist Christian, and if ASI (Artificial Superintelligence) ever becomes a reality, Christianity will likely integrate it into its belief system. ASI could be interpreted as the Devil, an angel, the Almighty himself, or as the fulfillment of some prophecy. Think about it... If ASI starts developing advanced tech of which nobody understands how it works, but it does work, it's going to look like magic. Christianity is based on accepting magical, mythical things as reality but rejecting science.

Naw, religion already accounts for an all knowing creator. Creating another all knowing creator eg. Super AGI, just means you created the next simulation

A fool accepts the supposed fact that truth can only be obtained from the one dimensional scientific lens. A wise one, on the other hand, knows the whole truth is obtained by looking through the three dimensional lens of science, religion, and philosophy. On their own, they’re half-truths; when together, it’s the whole truth.

Science is the material explanation. Religion is the spiritual explanation. Philosophy is the intellectual perspective, challenging our own thoughts and the thoughts of others, hoping to someday obtain fact. Science doesn’t cancel religion, and religion doesn’t cancel science. Embrace all three, for the three pillars are needed to support all prosperous, healthy societies or nations.

1 Corinthians 1:25:
“For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.”

Smh, LHM..🤦‍♂️...
"Read the Bible...and all this stuff"...speaks volumes. The Bible has withstood the test of time many, many times, and the word of God remains unchallenged as the ultimate source of truth and prophecy that is continuously being revealed.

Yes, Religious folk will do intellectual backflips to make their worldview somehow make sense.

Religions will have to adjust their belifes of limitations in order to stay in bussiness🎉.

Golly. We all have our worldviews. It looks like the subject of ai still attracts heavily atheists. I don't want to find that to be a bummer. I think I can understand why some people don't believe in God. I can also understand why a lot of people are not religious. So I'm not trying to sound rude. And I don't expect people to just accept what I'm saying. Nevertheless God is real. I don't think I'm better than people we don't believe in God. Not trying to be smug. But I'm sorry God is real. Of course if you don't have experienced God you're not going to believe in God. That makes sense. I don't know my God doesn't interact with these people. Or why these people don't know God. I don't know if I'm sure I don't live in the head of atheists. But I would imagine that most atheists are sincere about not marbling and GodBut I would imagine that most atheists are sincere about not believing in God. I don't believe that if the encyclopedia is all absolutely true and 100% of God. Nor do I think it's a bunch of fairy tales ribbon by silly delusional old man. Is likewise with the Bible. The Bible basically is consistent with my in the world experience. But I don't know why I should bring that any one of the books in the Bible is all 100% true. I find the Bible to be a very frustrating topic to discuss.

I mean when people realize that AI is just a tool like the calculator 🤔. The most powerful AI computer we have now is not even smarter than an ant 🐜.
Completely and utterly overrated.
