How do you know anything?

Because so-and-so said so.

Where did so-and-so learn it?

From so-and-so.

And him?  Where did he learn it?

From school.

Where did they learn it?

There are different forms of learning

Research scientists as we know them are a more modern invention.

There is trial and error.  You cook the cookies too long.  They burn.  You course correct and do better next time.

When it comes to some historical things, how did man learn?

He ate a berry and died; the rest of society learned the berry was poisonous.  That’s one way. Or maybe he listened to God and didn’t eat the poisonous berry.

In the case of Adam and Eve, God told them what to eat and what not to eat. They failed the test and got evicted from Eden.

Early man was closer to God.

Man did not come up from the slime. Man did not evolve from the slime.

Man was created by God.  God walked with man in the cool of the day in Eden.  Then man fell by listening to the serpent, the devil, satan who tempted man to disobey God.

Man had created abilities from God and then de-volved after the Fall in Eden. De-volved is the opposite of evolved.

Man has gone downhill, not uphill.

God is the source of original “witty inventions.”

Proverbs 8:10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.

Since man came from God, there is a soul, there is a conscience, there is an inner ability to hear when something is wrong.

But modern man ignores his conscience. Instead he makes decisions based on funding, bottom lines, board decisions, politically correct trends, what he thinks will promote the brand image, or other reasons than the voice and conscience from God that either directs him to move ahead or tells him to stop.

I Timothy 1:19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

Romans 14:23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.

At certain points in history, a number of voices speak similar things since they are individually listening to their consciences and coming up with the same message.

Society has doubt that AIs are a good thing. Society should listen to misgivings that are coming from many people, including those who are most trained in the field of AI, and shut it down.
