Ay Yi Yi AI

It is weird to be in this world where it is both advantageous for us to have smarter computer algorithms (whether they are truly “AI” Artificial Intelligence or not) – and yet in this “learning phase” we are forced to look at JUNK offerings in how we might use it… (some are amazing and good (especially spell check whew! and some are just way off as my email below triggered my rant)… It is the same as TV surely – there was always junk and good stuff. Ah telephones – great to have but then all that spam… We had the same thing for the US Mail – send in one donation and then 30 companies spam you with mailings (except most can’t afford the mail costs these days…)…  Worst is the spam mail we now get from organizations where you thought your $25 donation was saving someone but how could they if they are sending 1000 mailings now… hmmm…. SORRY for digressing…

Sorry, I digress from my original disgust. What triggered my “Ay Yi Yi” – I just like saying that – was an AI response prompt to an email I got from a new person I met at my college reunion who happens to live in my home town (that is not unusual as my college is not THAT far from my hometown)…  He said it was nice to meet all of us from our reunion class – his class was 15 years more – at the 50 year mark – and I invited him to join us at the local watering hole that evening after dinner and the fireworks – was a really nice opportunity to meet new people the whole weekend – simply nice to have nice people… ANYWAY – he did email me from when I gave him my networking business card and nice email but the AI-generated response was terrible – so weird that it would assume and presume – and I sent in a rejections comment to google – yeah – whose going to teach these bots about the NOT!

The response replied to him in a nickname not his formal name. It made an assumption about me at the farm not my aunt – which granted was also not clear in the beginning text but the conversation was so short that evening about the farm – but still – the AI overstepped. And the funny totally not true part was that the AI replied as if the person in the email offered me a job – he didn’t – he just complimented and then gave me advice which I appreciate and adhere to – I am being “choosy” – for good reasons… Maybe later I won’t be choosy but right now I am…

Here is a screenshot. It would be so un-authentic to use it – and totally wrong. And I am all about being authentic and cautious at the same time.

WELL – how do I think we will get better in AI – or any of this – and honestly – how in this time in our lives will we just be authentic. Isn’t that the most complained about trait about humans or about society? We just want AUTHENTICITY not Artificial Invasions. 

Well, there is no Greater REAL that God Himself – and although we wonder the plan in life for all our computers and bots and bothers – we must again and again look to God for path – plans – positioning – pondering – promise.

God said to Moses: I AM

God says to us: I KNOW YOU – I MADE YOU – I LOVE YOU

Jesus came to earth to forgive us – to cover us – to not judge us but save us: “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” (John 3:17)

As for AI, this scripture of Jesus’s teaching (John 3:6) reminds in a different way that human stuff won’t ever reach God stuff. Jesus said:  “That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.”

God knows where we are going – even when we go off track – and He offers us the most Authentic Influence – Almighty Interest – Awesome “I AM” – yes yes.

And as we are to remember – check back everything we hear as bible to the actual  bible – believe Jesus Immanual over Imagination…

And AMEN to Jesus’s teachings in all of John 3:1-21 NKJV (below)

AMEN

John 3
New King James Version
The New Birth
There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”

Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”

Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How can these things be?”

Jesus answered and said to him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things? Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness. If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”

AMEN AMEN
