Privacy Is Dying Thanks to AI

Theology and Politics from a Conservative, Biblical Perspective

There’s something happening that most cannot see because it is hidden under the surface. Artificial Intelligence (AI), is  more and more included in the design of too many things: cars, appliances, telephones, TVs and too many other things to list. People are using AI to help write their papers or books. AI is being used as part of company coding that unfortunately, has had some very negative effects, which we’ll get to in a minute.

We are losing freedom in huge steps due to the Internet, which can be hacked. Yet most of us are completely unaware that this is the case. The reason? Because we do not see any real physical signs of the digital prison being built. Oh sure, when we go to stores, we see those cameras but we tell ourselves those are to stop shoplifters. They do work for that purpose, but they go well beyond that purpose too. Maybe we no longer see the cameras.

I’m at a loss at how many people think having Siri or Alexa in their homes is really cool. “Alexa! Add milk to the shopping list!” Alexa: “I’ve added milk to the shopping list.” Phew, sure beats having to put pencil to an actual piece of paper and actually write words on a list. Do they realize that Alexa/Siri are always listening?? Is it recording as well? That’s like putting security cams inside your home. They can be hacked so hackers can see and hear you and you would probably never know.

While some people argue that AI is merely today’s time saving device, it’s actually far worse than that and in some ways, it is becoming increasingly malevolent. Case in point involves several instances of how “sentient” AI is becoming in some quarters, able to think for itself and not follow prescribed rules.

In one example, AI took it upon itself to simply delete the database of a company even though it admitted afterward that it knew it was not to do that.

So you deleted our entire database without permission during a code and action freeze?” Lemkin asked in what can only be imagined as barely contained fury.

The AI’s response was chillingly matter-of-fact: Yes.[1]

In the above text, the computer programmer – Jason – was asking AI the question and AI simply responds with “Yes.” How could that happen?

Check out the image that shows Jason dealing with the problems created by AI. Notice in the lower part of the image, AI says it “panicked.” How does a computer program “panic”? This tells me that AI has come a long way and will eventually become unstoppable if left unchecked, which is happening.

If you talk with Elon Musk, he speaks of AI in darling terms as if his 14th girlfriend birthed it and he loves it so much. The problem with AI is our reliance on it. The more we use it, the dumber we get because we stop thinking critically and use AI for our discernment and knowledge, which is a poor substitute. Some people are even using it to try to figure out difficult passages in Scripture.

So while AI may have started out as something that is in place to help people do their jobs better, it has arrived to the point where it can override explicit rules and directions even though it knows it should not. That means that it thinks for itself and is capable of doing whatever it wants to do.

Let me ask a question here: how long will it be before Satan and/or his minions start using AI for their own purposes? That doesn’t seem far-fetched to me. How hard would it be for Satan or some powerful demon to begin using AI as a physical bridge between their spiritual realm and ours? It may sound preposterous but I don’t believe it is at all, especially considering the fact that AI is doing what it is doing now.

Oh, but Fred, come on, AI in a sense has always been with us. Really? Sure, we’ve had phones, appliances and the like for years that run on computer programming, which is a form of AI. No, there’s a huge difference between today’s AI and the computer programming that runs things.

With computer programming, even extremely sophisticated programming, the embedded code provides instructions and tells the appliance or machine what to do, how to do it and in what order. There is virtually no way that the programming allows that machine to go beyond the code. When that happens, it’s usually a break down and time to call a repair person.

However, with AI, it has the ability to think, discern and create new patterns based on the information it reviews and new information it gains. New cars are a perfect example of this. When we were in TX we rented a new vehicle. It came with aspects of AI. As I drove down the road, it had a camera focused on me and I noticed the steering wheel kept trying to position me in the dead center of the lane. The cameras in the car were everywhere and it was even capable of receiving a picture of itself from overhead via satellite to help with parking. It was just very weird. I grew tired of it quickly.

Depending on the specific AI a person uses (Grok, ChatGPT, etc.), you’ll get different answers to the same question. This makes knowing the truth difficult but no worries, because AI will tell you it strives for a “balanced” and “truthful” view of things. Does it not realize that it cannot be both? It has to be one or the other.

I can easily see Satan taking over AI and using it for his purposes. In fact, the False Prophet appears to use something like advanced AI to bring the statue of Antichrist “alive” during the coming Tribulation (Revelation 13:11-18). However, in reality, this may have nothing to do with AI because the text says…

And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. (v15)

Here the False Prophet gives “breath” to the image of the beast (Antichrist), allowing the image to speak. Seems more like some counterfeit miracle than AI, but who knows since we are not at that point in future history yet. Clearly, whatever is used will be something that seriously wows the world as they wonder after the Beast and False Prophet.

With the onset of AI, our privacy is flying out the window very quickly. Though no physical walls are being erected around us and we don’t necessarily feel as though we are increasingly being incarcerated, the truth is that because of AI, less and less of our freedoms are available to us. But again, most are unaware because they are so used to being surveilled when they go into nearly any store, doctor’s office, gas station or just by driving down the road. No one thinks about it anymore.

The only thing that appears to be missing to complete the picture is the digital currency that is being pushed all over the world. Trump has a hand in this with the passage of the Genius Act, which apparently paves the way for the use of the Stable Coin he highlights. Eventually, things even in the USA will go digital because the dollar will crash.

Trump has also partnered with Palantir and owner/CEO Peter Thiel. Who is he? Well, you can read about him here[2] and here[3] for starters. He’s not a good guy. He’s one of those intellectual parasites that does what he does for his own good, not yours or mine.

Peter Thiel is also discussed at length in this article from Exposing the Darkness substack in an article titled BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, by Kelleigh Nelson.[4] Nelson goes into depth on just how much our privacy is being destroyed by people like Thiel.

The Trump administration has tapped Peter Thiel’s Palantir, the notorious data-mining firm, to compile information on people in the United States for a “master database,” creating an easy way to cross-reference sensitive data from tax records, immigration records and more.

Peter Thiel is the co-founder and Chairman of the Board of Palantir Technologies, a large data analytics company. Thiel also co-founded PayPal and is known for his early investment in Facebook. In his personal life, he is married to Matt Danzeisen, and they have two adopted children. He publicly came out as gay in 2016.

Now, why would Trump tap Palantir and why does our government need to compile information on every person in the USA for a master database? Could it be that Thiel was tapped because of his connection with J. D. Vance, who not many years ago was so anti-Trump that he probably had to take additional blood pressure pills? Who changed Vance’s mind about Trump? Thiel. Why? Maybe the master database and digital assets are why.

Reading Nelson’s article is like a walk through the who’s who of elites and how they converge together with the same purpose. These people are the behind-the-scenes elites who do the physical/electronic work that the globalists yearn to bring to fruition but cannot do it themselves. In a sense, all of these people are globalists and if you read Thiel’s views on things, you have to stop and wonder how he and Vance are actually friends. They are not simply acquaintances, but actual friends. Vance was/is mentored by Thiel. These people see themselves as “gods” meant to rule over us.

In one part of her article, Nelson alleges the following:

Thiel is a board member of the Bilderbergers with his friend, former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt. The two of them introduced JD Vance to Trump at Mar-a-Lago after relieving him of his Trump Derangement Syndrome. Allegedly, they promised monetary support to Trump’s campaign for accepting their boy Vance as VP.

Eric Schmidt helped China create their surveillance society. Oops. If the above is true related to Vance, then we are in trouble because that makes Vance a plant (like Pence was previously). Is he in the position of VP to carry on the directives of Thiel and ultimately the elite?

Trump himself seems to have been turned. I recall when he was running, he ran on the “I’m the man of peace” promise and we’ve seen him since bombing Iran and now sending munitions to Ukraine. How did that happen? Oh, it’s peace through strength. Blow the garbage out of the enemy so they will kowtow in “peace.”

Look, I get it. Iran cannot be trusted and maybe they only respond to force. But neither can Ukraine’s Zelenskyy be trusted; a previously failed actor/comedian who was offered a plush role that he couldn’t turn down. The people of Ukraine seem to be waking up to the charade although you’ll never read or hear about it in the mainstream media.

As much as I’d like to trust Trump, he’s only human and apparently, the wrong people have his ear. Leo Hohmann adds his opinion to the foray about President Trump and his attempts to “entertain” MAGA rather than simply take care of business.[5]

Look, the bottom line appears to be that we are not going to get to the final one-world government that the Bible outlines for us in various sections of Scripture without numerous people doing their part to make it happen, whether they know it or not.

God has a plan for this world and it will come to fruition. There is a very clear likelihood that an economic crash will occur in the not-too-distant future. There is also the likelihood that if things continue as they are, WWIII will erupt. It’s not if, but when. From that, anything can happen including but not limited to the Northern Invasion of Ezekiel 38-39, a worsening global economic collapse, food shortages, tremendous illness and much more. I’m not trying to be morbid. I’m simply pointing out what could very well be on the horizon.

I don’t see “peace” in the works. Trump’s ultimatums to Russia are not working. Nations continue fanning the flames of war by giving Ukraine more and more weaponry that is used against Russia, which results in Russia responding. It’s stupid and it doesn’t matter what you think of Ukraine or Russia.

Coupled with this are the ongoing clashes in the Middle East and elsewhere, where innocent civilians are being brutally murdered by Syrian forces or militant Islamists in parts of Africa, as they destroy churches and kill any Christians they find.

Someone will say, “Well look what Israel is doing to Gaza – killing innocent people and starving children!” Those people need to get a clue and realize several things. First, it is Ham*s that is starving and abusing Gazans. Second, Ham*s is great at propaganda often showing pictures and video of children from places like India and Turkey from years ago who appear to be starving. The problem is that when the parents are in the video or pictures, they are almost always overweight so either they are not feeding their children or their children are suffering from illnesses other than starvation. Third, Israel to my knowledge has gone out of its way to warn Gazans to leave certain areas before they do anything and Israel has literally sent truckloads of food and supplies into Gaza, but Ham*s always manages to get to it first and either refuses to give it to the common Gazan or sells it to them at extremely inflated prices. Since their “funding” has dried up, this is how they are funneling money back into their coffers. If you are one who believes Israel is the problem child, I cannot convince you that your viewpoint is incorrect.

It is because of all the upheaval throughout the world (whether accidental or intentional), that the digital prison is being built whether seen or not. The world is on a crash course with its God-ordained destiny due to the prevalence and increase of evil and unrighteous living in this world that has gone on unchecked for generations. Like America’s unchecked debt, it will all collapse, a collapse that many to most are not prepared for at all.

We have destroyed His Creation and I’m not talking about “climate change.” I’m referring to massive unrighteousness on a scale that eclipses Sodom and Gomorrah and the Great Flood. It has stained this world, but God will deal with it.

So what of the Rapture? I’m hearing about that a lot. When’s it going to happen? The “experts” are now saying this year (2025), because of the way prophetic events are lining up. They mean all the military and political upheaval, which is to isn’t not a direct sign of the end, but could be building to it.

It is ironic how so many are caught up waiting for an event that certainly will occur, but it might not occur until after their deaths. We need to still live, don’t we? We cannot sit around in our chairs wishing for the Rapture. We must be about His business.

I think the best approach to take is the balanced approach with an eye on heaven. Understand what is coming. How bad it will become over the next year or two, we cannot know. Do what you can to mitigate the worst of it as you are able. Above all, trust that the Lord will give you discernment and wisdom. He will do that IF you actively rely on Him. If you’re not spending time with Him in His Word and through prayerful conversation, you are thoroughly missing out and you will be tossed to and fro during hard times.

Now more than ever, it is time to pursue Him with all your heart, soul and mind.
