Pastor John Iowa was tinkering around the other day with chat GBT, and I asked it to spit

out a tweet for me about artificial intelligence and Christian joy.

And to write it all in your voice, here's what I said quote, artificial intelligence may

bring new levels of convenience and productivity, but let us not mistake it for true joy.

Our ultimate satisfaction can only be found in Christ, who alone can satisfy the deepest

longings of our hearts, in quote, simplistic connections here, but not too bad.

It does actually sound like you, but get this.

This that second sentence has its written, our ultimate satisfaction can only be found

in Christ, who alone can satisfy the deepest longings of our hearts.

That statement has never appeared in your written works or anyone's.

It has never appeared online anywhere, according to Google.

From what I can see, it's an original sentence, which is wild.

As you know, we're in the early stages of AI when large data sets can be crunched and

synthesized and computers can essentially spit out what appear to be thoughtful responses

to prompts.

Your ministry has produced one massive data set to put it crudely, and a day is not far

off and maybe it's here already when people will be tempted not to go to this podcast

or to your sermons or to books to hear from you.

They'll simply prompt for a summary answer to what John Pepper might say on a given

ethical dilemma or Bible text.

And some AI model will spit out a summary response in text or maybe even one day in your

own spoken voice or even in a video-generated response that looks like you talking.
