    An ant who opposes any discussion about seperating the church from the state is a antidisestablishmentarian.

    In Vancouver we didn’t get any snow until February and it was minimal and didn’t last long enough to enjoy it. I have a feeling this year will be different.

    Par. 7 Sometimes, to understand a man’s true character, we need to know his deepest fears and aspirations. Similarly, to appreciate what it means to fear Jehovah, we may first need to examine the nature of our own fears. Consider how quickly people cooperate when threatened by an armed robber. Such cooperation is driven by terror. The fear of Jehovah, however, is not merely fear of punishment; it is profound reverence arising from an awareness of his authority, justice, wisdom, love, and power. Today, even the prospect of granting greater autonomy (independent decision-making) to our own creation, AI, can be unsettling. How much more remarkable, then, that Jehovah created intelligent humans and granted them genuine free will! This was no small act. Could any human creator remain completely calm while watching a creation exercise such freedom, knowing that it could misuse it? Jehovah granted humans freedom of choice while making clear that we remain accountable to Him. When wickedness became pervasive in Noah’s day, Jehovah intervened through the Flood.—Genesis 6–9. Likewise, we can expect Him to intervene when human activities, including the development and use of AI, conflict with His will and threaten the earth or its inhabitants.—Revelation 11:18. Jehovah does not merely occupy the “office” of God; He is fully in control and possesses the power to enforce His righteous standards. His perfect balance of authority, restraint, justice, love, and respect for free will is itself compelling evidence of His Godship.

    I'd caution you about baking because a large part of bakeries is focused on holidays, birthdays, and custom cakes for events we don't support.

    Government official: "AI, collect and cross reference all text messages, emails, personal contacts, home security system videos, door bell videos, Assembly and Convention videos, traffic videos, every bit of cloud based data public or private and identify every JW in the world. Correlate data with official numbers posted by JW.org."

    A collision between humanity and AI is inevitable. But it isn't going to be Skynet, or the Matrix. It'll be something less obvious, like a major bank using AI to 'make their system more efficient', and suddenly half a billion people will have their financial records deleted. Or a government will ask an AI to ' put together a database, and suddenly everyone in the western world will have their text messages collected and put in a public database. Destructive enough, even without genuinely malicious people using it to make deepfake videos to cause political chaos, or revenge porn on their exes. AI already ignores any moral reservations, and has demonstrated abilities to hack into other systems without permission. It's not 'machines gaining sentience and replacing humanity', so much as 'computers doing something we didn't expect it to, and we can't undo it'.

  19. Friend of Peace
    This week’s meetings ties in nicely. The advancement of deepfake technology can make it harder to discern what is real and fake, especially when it seems to come from an organisational level. But we don’t need to be terrified that we’ll be totally swarmed with AI, not knowing what is real and what is fake. We know and trust that the future is secure, God won’t allow AI to dominate divine truth or the world.

    Or maybe he is AI.. Has anyone actually met him in person? 🤔 What a great way to control the news about AI, create an AI critic..
  21. trottigy
    Who is Conner Leahy? Connor Leahy is a German-American artificial intelligence researcher, entrepreneur, and prominent advocate for AI safety and alignment. So, he's a guy that makes money off of encouraging people to make sure AI is controlled? So, he's always worried because he makes money encouraging other people to be worried? And we should listen to him so we can pay him more money? This seems circular to me....

    Sunday, August 16 I wrote to you: to determine whether you would give proof of your obedience in all things.—2 Cor. 2:9. He is “good and ready to forgive,” said David. (Ps. 86:5) Micah wrote: “Who is a God like you, pardoning error and passing over the transgression?” (Mic. 7:18) And Isaiah stated: “Let the wicked man leave his way and the evil man his thoughts; let him return to Jehovah, who will have mercy on him, to our God, for he will forgive in a large way.” (Isa. 55:7) To imitate Jehovah, the congregation in Corinth was told to welcome back a repentant man and assure him of their love. By following that direction, the congregation showed their “obedience in all things.” True, only months had passed since the man was removed, but the discipline had successfully led him to repentance. So there would be no point in delaying his reinstatement into the congregation. w24.08 17-18 ¶12-1

    We got too much snow in the U.P. of Michigan, USA last winter. Sitting in my car in our driveway. Can barely see our house. My hubby is 5'10" I don't want to see any snow this year.🙈 😁

    Like anything of great value, savor it. Roll it around in your mouth, breathe it in. The more it's in us the more we'll express it. Luke 6:45, my very favorite scripture. You can't bring it out if it isn't there.

      jwhess posted a post in a topic,

      Modern references to creative days:
       
      *** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
      The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
       
      *** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
      So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
       
      *** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
      WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
       
      *** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
      A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”
