Nephilim End-Times Strategy: Artificial Intelligence’s Role in the Last Days

What will life be like in 20 years? What forms of energy will be available to us?

Breakthroughs in science will transform our lives. Many of the innovations will use atomic energy. There will be quantum computers billions of times more powerful than today’s PCs. Some inventions are already interfacing with contact lenses that will beam data into our eyes.

Technology is advancing from every direction and is moving faster with each passing day. There will be an increase of knowledge in the last days:

“... close up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge” (Daniel 12:4, NIV).

The Hebrew word, “to increase,” means to multiply. In other words, there shall be an explosion of knowledge.

3-D Printing

Imagine printing a solid object, into a 3-D format. 3-D printing is a device that manufactures a three-dimensional object, layer by layer. Instead of ink, it uses plastic, metal, nylon or other substances. On a standard printer, a nozzle passes over the paper that builds a picture line-by-line. The nozzle on a 3-D printer lays down layers of material that builds a solid object.

Most manufacturing processes produce things by cutting and drilling, removing material until what remains is the desired size or shape. 3-D printers do the opposite, adding to the item in stages until it’s complete. This makes it very efficient, as there is almost no waste.

The potential for 3-D printing is huge. Some have described it as the third industrial revolution. Today, companies use 3-D printing to make prototypes of items they intend to manufacture. For example, 3-D mockups of new shoe designs are printed in order for designers to see what works and what does not work. This allows them to make the necessary revisions before they create the actual shoe, which greatly speeds up the preproduction process and saves a lot of money.

But there is a dark side to this amazing invention. How do you stop people such as criminals or terrorists from using 3-D printers to produce illegal items? Guns, which were built from over 30 stainless steel and nickel parts, have already been printed and tested in Austin, Texas. They are lethal weapons and can be used by good or evil people.

Self-Driving Cars

There are technologies that exist on vehicles today such as cruise control, lane guidance, assisted brakes and automated parking. Self-driving cars are being tested on U.S. roads, and there is already an automated car system in place at Heathrow Airport’s Terminal Five in England. Even with all of the questions we might ask, self-driving cars around the world are proving to be more capable than human-driven vehicles.

Power Without Wires

Technological advancements mean there will be no need for cables to plug into your mobile devices to charge batteries. The future of wireless power is on the horizon. Presently, one is able to place their phone on a charging mat and the battery replenishes itself. This is an important invention for charging electric car batteries. Electric cars will refresh their batteries while they drive past a recharging station without stopping. A wireless future could be more imminent than we think.

The Rise of the Robots

Robot vacuum cleaners roam the house without human supervision. Today, robots can run like a cheetah and even make their own decisions. Amazingly, they can even look like real human beings. One robot, if it’s knocked over or stumbles, can regain its balance, as well as walk on slippery ice without falling.

Hollywood movies about robotic creatures are a dime a dozen. The progressive growth of robots and drones pose a serious threat to society, which could limit one’s personal privacy and civil liberties, as well as basic human rights. The benefits of such innovations will be eroded by the development of new robot technologies for monitoring, checking and following humans. How do you think the antichrist will use such technology?

Soon, we are told, fully autonomous machines could be fighting our wars and selecting kill targets with no human intervention. How robots affect our future remains to be seen, but the fact is they provide us with the possibility to go beyond the limits of human progress. It may not be very long before colleagues are made of steel, rather than flesh. The U.S. military is pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into bionics research, partly because of military victims who have lost their limbs.

Artificial Limbs

Technological innovation is advancing the limits of what modern prostheses can do. For salamanders, losing a limb isn’t so bad because they just simply grow another one. Scientists are busy studying salamanders in order to pin down the biological process behind the regeneration capacity, in the hope that one day it will be replicated in humans. Recently, a man who lost his nose to cancer had it replaced with one that grew from stem cells. In a north London hospital, scientists are growing noses, ears and blood vessels in the laboratory in a bold attempt to make body parts by using stem cells.

Man-Made Limbs

The human brain makes 100 trillion calculations per second. By 2050, we are told a desktop computer will have the equivalent processing power of 9 billion brains. We are in the midst of a powerful acceleration in computer technology, and when computers gain artificial intelligence, with the ability to reason and communicate ideas like a human can, it will change everything. The question is, will computers dominate humans or will humans still control the Earth? Within 30 years, science will produce the hardware and the software to create super human intelligence. These machines will be vastly superior to human intelligence.

Quantum Computing

Quantum models could one day replace today’s supercomputers. We are heading toward smaller, faster processors with more hard drive capacity. The number of transistors on integrated circuits is doubling every two years. Quantum computing harnesses the power of atoms and molecules to perform memory and processing tasks. The potential of quantum computing is light years faster than the conventional computer used today.

Nanotechnology

Just what is a nano? A nano is one billionth of a meter. A nano is to a meter as a marble is to the Earth. Scientists are working on tiny computer chips called smart dust, which will cover the infrastructure of a city or town and monitor everyone’s moves to know when and where each and every person is at any given moment. When one enters their office building, the smart dust will boot up their computer and open doors automatically for their every move, including opening the elevator door and ringing their floor. The iPhone is an early sample of what is to come. Technology not only involves non-living microchips. It also involves biological “chips.” Nanotechnology includes duplicating microscopic molecules like the one cell bacteria flagellum for the purpose of attacking deadly diseases in the human body such as cancer cells. Nanotechnology is inevitable and is going to be a huge part of our lives soon.

The Human Genome Project

The human genome project was one of man’s greatest scientific achievements in the 20th century. The aim of the project was to map all of the genes that make up the human being, which carry the detailed instruction manual of our bodies that is within every cell. This hereditary information is coded in the DNA. It is in the DNA where the human genes are found that provide instructions essential for life. The DNA molecule contains around 24,000 genes. The project mapped the function of each gene. The benefits of this project will help in preventing disease.

This mapping will be common knowledge, just as one’s blood type can be known. As a result, medical breakthroughs offer hope to those who are suffering from inherited diseases. A defective gene can be replaced, eliminated or made inactive and a gene can be introduced into the body to help fight a disease. The genome project was an international venture with scientists from 20 countries working on it. The job was completed in 2003, 50 years after the discovery of the DNA molecule.

The dark side of this amazing endeavor is when mankind begins to tinker with human genetics, where are the boundaries? Can an embryo with a defective gene be treated before birth? That would be wonderful! But the potential side effects producing lasting complications are unknown. In humanistic hands, mankind will be able to manipulate the human body to be altered from God’s original plan.

Becoming Biological Machines?

Are we already becoming machines? We wear digital earpieces. We seem lost without our wireless devices. Contacts are now being created to fit over one’s eye to connect to the Web. Robotic exoskeletons are now being made to perform everything man does manually with great ease.

Technology empowers the disabled to live a normal life. Robotic legs can allow an individual to walk who has no physical legs. Sightless individuals now have the ability to see. Contact lenses are now being created that will provide a stream of data to guide one through life—data that is literally projected in front of their eyes. They are called electronic contact lenses. The display will not be confused with one’s perception of the world. Voiceless people now have the ability to speak, and now, we can implant chips in the brain of a stroke victim, which allows them to control a robotic arm. The computer decodes the victims’ neural signals in the brain that connects with the implanted chip. Technology is reshaping human history.

Tattooed Tech

Scientists are also working on creating an electronic tattoo that would be implanted on the throat of an individual enabling him or her to communicate with smart phones via Bluetooth connections. The tattoo would include a microscopic microphone and power source. The invention would allow individuals to communicate via voice commands without having to wear an earpiece or headset. The device would allow one to communicate in a crowded noisy room, as well as listen to music without earphones. In addition, Google’s glass technology is producing a wearable computer with a smartphone display that lets the user text, browse the Web, take photos and run other apps, all hands-free.

Artificial Intelligence

In a few decades, living beings as we know them might not be the only intelligent life on our planet. But what does that mean to us? Will these intelligent machines be able to think? Thinking is what separates men from the machines. In the latter, what goes in goes out. Whatever the machine is programmed to do, it will do, which allows it to make calculations that can even outsmart mankind. For example, artificial intelligence really captured the public’s imagination in 1997, when the supercomputer Deep Blue beat world champion Gary Kasparov at chess. The society we live in already has plenty of functional intelligent-design systems. Have you ever used the Siri app on the iPhone? It’s just a matter of time before artificial intelligence runs our lives, even though it doesn’t respond emotionally with feelings of gloom and despondency.

Artificial intelligence is inevitable. Digital creatures have been created in the computer. These computerized images make decisions on their own— when to turn, eat, rest, etc. They are able to pass on this info in their digital brains to their offspring. Each generation gets smarter, so they can survive longer. Experts claim by the year 2035, human level intelligence will exist in these robotic creatures.

Robots will look and act more and more like humans. In Japan, humanoids are being produced today in the laboratories. They respond exactly like their human twin. They speak identically to their creator, even mirroring every twitch of the eye. Robots will be commonplace in the future society with realistic humanoids, whose intelligence will rival our own. We will not know which is human when we pass one on the street or in the office.

Teleporting A Human

Most everyone has heard of Star Trek’s science fiction technology of a person being transported to a distant location through what is called a teleportation machine, commonly known as being “beamed up.” Is such an idea possible from a scientific standpoint? We all know how easy it is to copy and cut-and-paste a phrase using a computer and then send it through cyberspace on the Web. Is it possible that quantum mechanics can “cut and paste” and then transport living matter?

In 1997, a team of scientists at the University at Innsbruck in Austria demonstrated quantum teleportation, transmitting and reconstructing the state of a photon over a distance. It seems that science is attempting to accomplish what we read about in Scripture. The Bible provides examples of what mankind is attempting to accomplish in the natural—the prophet Elijah being translated in a fiery chariot (2 Kings 2), Philip being translated from place to place (Acts 8:39), and Christ Jesus’ ascension into the heavens (Acts 1:9).

Nanotechnology, Robotics and Genetics

Mankind is developing three technologies that will eventually converge and function together. First, there are nanotechnologies, which involve molecule-sized machines. These are tiny, tiny biological and mechanical microscopic machines. Second, there is the technology of robotics, which is self-modifying (altering, changing) sentient (conscious) machines. These machines are computer-driven devices that can reprogram themselves. Third is genetics, and this involves self-replicating (copying) entities (humans) that can manipulate and maneuver other mechanisms and devices.

These three technologies are destined to converge and interconnect with one another. The goal to converge these technologies is to create self-copying, conscious machines that can be directed to target diseases or specific groups or individuals. For example, a virus will be engineered that will attack only certain combinations of DNA. The evil side of this is the misuse of such technology in the hands of fallen man.
