As AI continues to impact everyone’s lives in some facet already, it’s need and acceptance will also continue to be emphasized. Those who don’t accept it will be viewed as a denier of science, technology, advancement, revolution, progress, and human evolution.
Joe Doran, author and contributing author for The Trends Journal, makes the case that being disparaged as an “AI-denier” will happen in the foreseeable future.
The following report is by Joe Doran:
We’re hurtling toward a future where political representatives, as well as average citizens, will be subjected to ridicule and pressure when they espouse policies or opinions that run counter to an “AI consensus.”
Artificial Intelligence is already being embedded as an oracle and assistant into core business and creativity processes across a spectrum of businesses and institutions.
And this past week, the Biden administration issued an Executive Order requiring Federal agencies to formally assess ways to integrate and utilize AI in all government operations.
It’s only a matter of time before anyone who doubts the “science-based,” dispassionate insights and recommendations of AI on a given issue or course of action automatically will be seen as “anti-science” and otherwise illegitimate.
How long before those who resist the advisements of AI are termed “AI deniers?”
In that future, who controls what and how AI learns, will have great power indeed. Right now, the most sophisticated publicly known AI rests with a handful of the world’s most powerful tech corporations.
Even at this point, in a drive to push AI to a point where it achieves an unprecedented new level of superior synthetic intelligence, AI is also being built with the ability to self-learn and advance, in ways that can’t be completely controlled by humans.
It seems that a certain amount of autonomy or “self-will” is inseparable with the kind of advanced intelligence being sought in the current AI arms race.
And that means that at some point, the AI consensus may amount to rule of average humans not by (relatively) free representatives accountable to the people, but by some alliance of technocratic human elites, with an increasingly sophisticated, autonomous AI that can outthink any human.
Biden Dictates Will Speed the Embedding Of AI Into Government Decision-Making
Many might see President Biden’s latest directive as just a prudent way to leverage technological innovation.
The trouble is, AI represents synthetic intelligence. And what AI proscribes or recommends, may be viewed as more knowledgeable and objective than human intelligence. And as AI is given greater credence and deference, effective rule or policymaking by an AI consensus, may become the de facto norm.
Another problem is the kind of power that AI is already allowing human government operatives to wield.
A Post Millennial story on the Biden AI initiative detailed how intel agencies are using AI to upgrade their powers to surveil Americans. (“Biden admin moves to implement use of AI across federal agencies,” 26 Oct 2023.)
The Department of Homeland Security is utilizing AI in “autonomous surveillance towers,” which can identify and surveil “items of interest” without a dedicated human operator.
Meanwhile, the CIA said it was developing AI to “sift through an avalanche of public information.” Division director Randy Nixon, recently told Bloomberg in an interview:
We’ve gone from newspapers and radio, to newspapers and television, to newspapers and cable television, to basic internet, to big data, and it just keeps going. We have to find the needles in the needle field.
One Small Step From Fauci’s “I am Science” To The AI Consensus
At one point during the COVID War, top U.S. technocrat Dr. Anthony Fauci declared that his pronouncements were beyond criticism, since he perfectly reflected and embodied the scientific viewpoint with regard to COVID policies.
“I represent the science,” Fauci infamously remarked at one point in 2021, when questioned about troubling and even bizarrely illogical COVID policies.
The idea that any framework purporting to help make sense of human experience is untouchable and not to be questioned, is exactly the shibboleth that the scientific method was long touted as providing a check and antidote for.
But especially over the 20th century, with rapid advancement and endless products and innovations made available by science and engineering, science has morphed from a method to a belief system in itself.
I have called this phenomenon “scientism,” and detailed some of its core tenets.
The scientific method confines itself to particulars, and to ascertaining what is, and how what is is, is.
As science has grown increasingly speculative, it has gone into the business of predicting what will be. This is fraught with opportunities for ideologies, subjective notions and desires, and manipulations to enter the picture, in the name of science.
Since the 1950’s, and accelerating with advances in computing technology ever since, so-called scientific modeling has sought to drive political and social policies on a more and more grandly comprehensive scale.
Scientism is now used to drive radical policies related to the environment, education, and biology and genetics.
Transgenderism, wholesale genetic modification of plants and animals, and even the dawn of humans—and AI—genetically engineering ourselves—are all proceeding at an alarming pace.
The institituting of AI in public policy decision-making is part and parcel of this ceding of “progress” to something other than natural human provenance.
Generative AI systems have already shown themselves capable of swallowing practically the whole of human knowledge.
This represents information acquisition and leveraging that no human can match.
While AI has yet to demonstrate a “general intelligence” or self-cognizance (ie. self-awareness) that is comparable to humans, many AI experts believe it’s only a matter of time before such a moment—which some have termed the Singularity—is achieved.
In the year since OpenAI first offered its sophisticated ChatGPT to the public in a free preview, humans have already become dependent on AI, much as they have become dependent on other technology like smartphones and computers.
AI is being used to power financial software for stock and crypto trading. It’s creating award winning art and blog posts, in response to simple natural language prompting. It’s being used to analyze business data and processes, in order to advise and streamline operations.
A recent Politco article observed that AI was being utilized to solicit advice at medical facilities, with little or no regulation concerning the quality of the advice. (“AI has arrived in your doctor’s office. Washington doesn’t know what to do about it,” 28 Oct 2023.)
Perhaps Washington doesn’t want to do anything about it.
As the Biden AI directive shows, government is rushing headlong into its own slavish reliance on AI consensus.
The Trends Journal has long predicted that AI would be used sooner or later to guide and even dictate political and social policies, in an assault on human agency and democratic political rights and freedoms.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[17] But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; [18] How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. [19] These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. Jude 17-19
I think Mr. Doran raises a good point and this is probably what’s going to happen soon enough, if not even already.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Typical of these wicked, slippery clowns to think up those endless labels. “King James Onlyism”, “bible thumper”, “conspiracy theorist”. Some of our hard-earned wages pay for these people’s omega-3 brain supplements. Even a salmon poop’s wasted on these psychos.
Scientism, the worship of false science.
I’ll be the first; AI is complete garbage; only a moron would believe that a computer generated intelligence could answer all the questions of man
Ecc 6:12 For who knoweth what is good for man in this life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?
I don’t deny AI: I just deny its legitimacy as savior and God as the idolatrous humanists & the leaders & spirit they blindly follow would have it, with the usual sacrificial death toll that spirit demands, and God allows as men sort themselves to blessing or loss. I used to wonder ‘why’ as computers & computing came in & was tolerated & retained no matter what when hard accounting & truth were so much better & more accurate, provable. Now I see it. But it’s bigger than the supposed ‘success’ of the wicked, or what they’re ‘getting away with’, because God is allowing & using it to his own ends of fulfilling his word & will, & even by the free will choices of many who went along with it without resistance or ‘letting’. Their success, our apparent loss, is only temporal when we lift our eyes to eternity & the big picture of God’s eternal plan & salvation.

This thing is the cruel and idol shepherd’s precursor having neither soul nor conscience. The chosen intermediary of men who’ve seared their consciences & sentenced their own souls to destruction & death which will bring them their ultimate solution through compromise, their sin-thesis process through which they think they progress & evolve, and climb to heaven: trying to shift the blame even as the self-righteous used & manipulated the Roman, Pilate, equally self-serving & self-righteous, though he superstitiously and vainly washed his hands as he gave over Christ in unjust judgment. What a picture!
–
They don’t like hard copy paper & skin, things made of once-living things made of carbon, things that were kept in the Ark & shared with the people, or burned on the altar of brass signifying judgment & trial. Those perishable, corruptible things with imperishable & incorruptible words on & in them, but instead they cling to ‘bits’ & pieces of truth, of information: even as RNA is to DNA if you think about it….those weak & beggarly elements the Galatians were being tempted to go back to, & faithfully warned of.
–
AI is just another ‘step’ on their ladder leading to destruction, death & Hell. Another ‘brick’ in place of plain, God-created stones in their road, their via, their way and web-fig leaf-lambskin apron that won’t cover them in the end.

It’s naught but the deceiving, seducing & flattering corruption of the prince of the power of the air & his children (just look how clever you are and what you have crafted, he says….while being every bit & more as willing to sacrifice them as that wicked Idumean toady of Rome, Herod the Great, was his own wife & children….or today’s feminist & her partners in sin, in bondage to their idols & sin…..think about it), that changeling who ‘evolves’ as his ‘purposes’ drive him & them…..that old father of lies.
–
It’s naught but their next ‘evolution’ away from even the twisted, corrupted, ever-changing words of their multitude of perver$ion$ with their false christs and gospels. No wonder Paul bursts out in amazement at the end of Romans 11 at how God fulfills his will….or, that John ‘wondered’ at the sight of that thing it serves, & is served, by. It is amazing. And terrifying. Who can but fear him, serve, worship & adore him for making a way for us? Equally unmeriting….warning and saving us whilst we were yet sinners. Such holiness, & such love, truly is beyond our ken.
I haven’t read the comments yet, so if I repeat what someone has already said, I apologize in advance.
This is all part of the mark of the beast system; the second part…the “image that speaks”. A.I. has been used worldwide for a very long time. As is the governments’ custom, they use new technology for at least 20-50 years before they make it public. Any veteran who’s been in for a long time can confirm that statement.
The war in Israel is being used to distract people from the serious global issues that are going to engulf us in the next few weeks. I.e. cashless society, death to normalcy, and bloodbaths in every city and town! Total chaos and murderous mayhem. This has to happen so they can “build back better”. The war is also being used to usher in the Rapture of the Church, followed by the revelation of the Antichrist. Either way, we don’t have much longer to wait to see Him face-to-face!
If Jesus tarries much longer, He won’t have to have quite so many seats for those “who are alive and remain”… Let’s put that in our pipe and draw a long smoke out of it. The world is now a ticking timebomb; Christ is the Head, waiting to unite with the rest of His body.
Isn’t it ironic, that the Church would be called “the body of Christ” and Christ, “the Head”…in light of the barbarians that love to separate the two! Maybe I think too much…
