AI FOR THE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY

When one of America’s most influential tech leaders champions AI for the Christian community, it’s a story worth your attention.

In this exclusive interview, Christian Post sits down with Pat Gelsinger, former Intel CEO and current Executive Chairman and Head of Technology at Gloo, who’s on a mission to ensure artificial intelligence serves—rather than side-lines—the Church. From his early pull to ministry that led him into the tech world, to his vision for “values-aligned AI,” Gelsinger shares why he believes we’re living through a “Gutenberg moment” that Christians cannot afford to miss.

After leading one of America’s largest technology companies, you’ve now taken on the role of Executive Chair and Head of Technology at Gloo, a faith-based AI platform.

What drew you to make this transition — and why focus specifically on AI for the faith community?

I’ve always lived my life at the intersection of faith and technology. Early on, I actually felt a strong pull to enter the ministry. But I discovered that my calling was to be a workplace minister in the tech industry seeking to make the lives of everyone on the planet better through technology. AI is the biggest technology shift of our time; it’s a Gutenberg moment. Since AI will profoundly impact people’s lives, it is essential for the faith community to actively shape its development in ways that promote human well-being and serve the common good.

Gloo’s mission is to “catalyze the faith ecosystem through AI and other breakthrough technologies.”

Practically speaking, what does this look like for a typical church, ministry, or Christian organization?

Historically, the Church has been slow to adopt technology, and it has also been radically underserved. Organizations across the Christian ecosystem need access to the right technologies that truly serve their needs. Gloo is filling this gap, by offering a trusted technology platform that connects and meets the needs of the entire ecosystem – from churches, ministries and frontline organizations to the growing network of trusted providers that serve them. At the center of these efforts is Gloo AI, Gloo 360 and Gloo Workspace. From better understanding and supporting members of a congregation to connecting various channels and partners through underlying technology, Gloo is creating the digital backbone that will shape technology for good and help the Church thrive.

Many Christian leaders feel overwhelmed or even intimidated by emerging AI tools.

What would you say to those who are hesitant to explore AI in their ministries or day-to-day operations?

AI is yet another monumental technology shift that is both confusing and scary. Much like the printing press, radio or television, the Church must learn how to shape this technology and ensure it supports our communities instead of harming them. AI is just a tool – it’s not inherently good or bad. It’s our responsibility to shape it for good. If pastors and Church leaders are not already familiar with the technology, I encourage them to start small but… get started! Start exploring AI tools, consider joining ministry-centered learning groups, talk with your staff about how to use AI in Godly ways, and follow faith leaders who are exploring the space.

You’ve spoken about the potential for AI to enhance core functions of the Church.

How do you see it transforming areas like pastoral care, discipleship, community building, or evangelism? What excites you most about these possibilities?

AI can be a force multiplier for the Church’s core mission; sharing Scriptures, guiding people towards resources, and meeting people where they are with personalization. It can help with the low-impact work of running a church or faith organization and free up more time for Church leaders to minister to their flock. It can translate and localize materials (and even help with Biblical translations) to help with outreach and evangelism.

One of Gloo’s unique differentiators is its focus on developing “values-aligned AI models.”

What does that mean in practice, and how do you ensure these systems reflect Christian values and biblical principles?

I’ve always been vocal that technology must support human flourishing and align with human values. It’s not enough to show the absence of harm, you must show the presence of good. A “values-aligned” AI model should be based on human values, and its answers and actions should encourage human well-being.

At Gloo we’re working to build this. Core to that mission is understanding how AI and large language models (LLMs) impact human wellbeing. Based on the work of the Human Flourishing Project of Harvard, Baylor and Gallup, we created the Flourishing AI Benchmark. FAI measures how industry LLMs perform across the seven key areas of human flourishing, which includes faith and spirituality. By better understanding that dynamic, we can work as a community to build standards that will improve AI’s impact on humanity.

Beyond church operations, there’s also potential for AI in Bible translation, theological education, and content accessibility.

How do you envision AI expanding the global reach of Christian resources and training?

This is one of the areas that I find most inspiring.  AI can already translate across hundreds of languages, but we could soon see Scriptures in languages for every person on this planet. There are approximately 7,000 languages with most yet to be conquered—AI will dramatically accelerate our ability to present God’s word to every single language and people group on the planet in text, speech and cultural relevant manners.

I see this also as a huge accelerant to educate every person on the planet. Today, we are close to 70% connected and we’re projected to reach over 90% by decades end. AI will also dramatically improve teacher productivity. With the trifecta of language, connectivity and teacher productivity, we can envision teaching every child on the planet, including all 333 million living in extreme poverty today. This will be the single most powerful way to eliminate extreme poverty.

For accessibility, AI can adapt content for the hearing and visually impaired and those with special learning needs. That’s the work of the Kingdom—so that all can hear the teachings of the Bible.

Gloo frames its annual “Gloo AI Hackathon” as a space to create redemptive technology that supports human flourishing.

What do you ultimately hope to accomplish through these events — and what are you most looking forward to seeing emerge from this year’s hackathon?

Hackathons bring together creators, innovators and dreamers in a powerfully collaborative way. We want participants to think outside the box and push the boundaries of what AI can do in an ethical, faith-driven environment. I’m looking forward to seeing young developers and seasoned leaders come together, fueled by faith, to build technology that will help people flourish. That, to me, is a glimpse of the future of the Church. I can’t wait to explore their builds and use cases.

The Church’s AI Moment

gloo church 1

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape our world, the question isn’t whether AI will impact the Church, but whether the Church will impact AI. Pat Gelsinger’s vision of “values-aligned” artificial intelligence offers a compelling alternative to the often dystopian narratives surrounding this technology, presenting instead a future where AI amplifies human flourishing and advances God’s Kingdom.

From accelerating Bible translation to every language on earth to freeing pastors from administrative tasks so they can focus on shepherding their flocks, the possibilities are as vast as they are inspiring. But realizing this potential requires Christian leaders to overcome their hesitation and engage with AI tools—not from a place of fear, but from a position of faith-driven leadership.

The Gutenberg printing press didn’t just change how information was shared; it democratized knowledge and accelerated the Reformation. Similarly, AI’s potential to personalize discipleship, expand global evangelism and eliminate barriers to theological education could usher in a new era of Christian impact.

The question that remains is whether the Church will shape this technology or be shaped by it. As Gelsinger reminds us, “It’s our responsibility to shape it for good.”

WHAT IS AHEAD FOR 2025?

The AI and Robotics technological breakthroughs in 2024 set the stage for 2025 as outlined in my previous post: Review of Economic Events for 2024.

The chart below shows exponential growth but not the kind we like to see. In fact, it’s the kind that can result in the outright debasement of a national currency and a collapse in its bond markets. U.S. national debt-to-GDP now stands at 123%. The U.S. government is already running a cumulative fiscal deficit for fiscal year 2025 (starting October 1) of $622 billion. Current forecasts for fiscal year 2025 exceed $2 trillion.

When the fiscal irresponsibility of any government reaches this level, there are usually only two choices to address the problem: Austerity, which is the least politically desirable. Reductions in spending and entitlements always have a degree of economic impact and certainly don’t make voters happy. Devalue the national currency. This is obviously what has been taking place. About 27% of U.S. national debt has been created in the last four years. Money “printing” always results in the devaluation of U.S. dollars and reduced purchasing power.

JEFF BROWN (BROWNSTONE RESEARCH) SUGGESTS THERE IS A BETTER WAY OUT OF THIS MESS

A large productivity boom would accelerate economic growth, lessen the impact of the current debt load, help reduce interest rates, and – if done right – could result in a fiscal surplus.

The USA is on the cusp of the greatest productivity boom in history. And it will be entirely technology-driven. Artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and automation technologies will be the underlying productivity drivers. With cheap energy, the USA will compete with China as robotics beats cheap labour. Robots operate 24 hours a day 7 days a week: no time off, sickies, or holidays, and do not make mistakes.

With Trump at the helm, the U.S. regulatory environment will shift quickly in support of technological innovation, investment, onshoring of manufacturing, blockchain technology as the next generation of payment and settlement rails, and energy production to support economic growth.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will materially reduce the fiscal year 2025 deficit by at least $250 billion, and by more than $1 trillion by fiscal year 2026 under the leadership of Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk.

The Centers for Disease Control, the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institutes of Health, and the Food and Drug Administration will return to evidence-based medicine practices and streamline the clinical trials process with higher standards for drug approvals, driven by the leadership of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya. This will be a net benefit for the biotech industry.

Interest rates will decline mostly in the second half of the year by another 50–75 basis points. It will take some for the fiscal and economic policy changes to tame inflation. The larger cuts will come in 2026, an even better year for the economy and the markets.

Not surprisingly, AI will continue to be the hottest growth trend in 2025. Hundreds of billions will continue to be spent on the hyperscale “AI factories” being built to train AI foundation models. Jeff believes that we’ll see at least one company develop an artificial general intelligence (AGI) by the end of 2026. We’ll see the equivalent of genius-level IQs from the foundational models of OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta (Llama), Alphabet (Gemini), and xAI (Grok). And the outlier – the big surprise in 2025 will be from Elon Musk and his team at xAI. The entire industry has discounted xAI because it was a bit late to the game of building a foundation model for AI. That’s a mistake, for two reasons. Within a few months, xAI will have the largest training cluster of GPUs, at least 200,000 GPUs developing Grok 3.0. xAI is also developing a “maximum truth-seeking AI.” When training an AI, the quality and accuracy of a model’s outputs depend heavily upon the quality and accuracy of the inputs. Other companies trying to program their foundational models with clear bias and/or political narrative actually slow down their own technological development. Doing so adds complexity. xAI is avoiding that trap by designing, building, and performance training. This is a large competitive advantage that will catch the rest of the industry off guard. xAI’s Grok will outperform the rest of the industry.

2025 will also be the year when we experience Level 5 autonomous transport without any geofencing, entirely driven by vision models. This is different than Waymo, Cruise, or others that are heavily dependent upon LIDAR and require very precise maps allowing them only to operate in geofenced areas. And there is only one company capable of this technology – Tesla.

This year will be the first year when we experience unsupervised full self-driving technology. Unsupervised means that no one will have to sit in the front seat and monitor the full self-driving software for safety. Tesla will succeed in “turning on” this technology in at least one U.S. state this year. This will also enable Tesla to launch a robotaxi network, enabling Tesla owners to opt their Teslas into the network, enabling their electric vehicles to earn income. This will change the entire dynamic of the automotive industry, as Teslas will become affordable to an even larger percentage of the market. And it will, of course, be bullish for Tesla as the only EV company capable of this technology.

Humanoid Robots Overtake Offices & Factories

We’ll also see impressive advancements in AI in the manifested form of humanoid robots. Again, Tesla will lead here with its forthcoming release of Optimus Gen 3, which will be capable of autonomous operations in both industrial and consumer settings. While I don’t expect Tesla to start external sales of Optimus until 2026, it will widely use its production of Optimus in both its own office and factory settings. Optimus will set the standard for humanoid robot productivity, and investment will increase dramatically in other major players in this field. 1X Technologies, Agility, and Boston Dynamics will work hard to catch up to Tesla’s technology.

LLM’s (Large Language Models): The Year of Agentic AI

Let’s define agentic AI. Unlike traditional AI, which linearly executes commands, agentic AI systems interact with tools and databases autonomously and in logical order to achieve more reliable and robust results. If you were to query an agentic AI system with a multi-step problem, it would parse your request in the most logical order instead of moving from the top down.

These Agentic AI agents will be capable of reasoning and solving tasks that require multiple steps to complete. Agentic AI will be capable of transacting on behalf of anyone. The technology will be able to interface with the internet and fill out fields to complete assigned tasks. This technology will extend even further to the blockchain industry, where AI agents will be capable of managing smart contracts and engaging in self-directed economic activity. Blockchain technology is particularly conducive to agentic AI technology because of the ease of transacting with digital assets and the construction of smart contracts using blockchain technology. Which brings us to the digital assets industry.

The Year of Digital Asset Revitalization

The Trump win means pro-crypto, pro-innovation, and a plan to put clear regulations in place for digital assets. Fortunately for the digital assets industry, we’re already seeing a complete revitalization of the blockchain industry concerning investment in the U.S. 2025 will be a big year for crypto.

New regulations will be put in place, providing clarity and clear guidance on industry rules. And the enforcement of baseless and antagonistic actions against the leaders in the industry will come to an end. This will be bullish for high-quality cryptocurrencies. We should expect to see a lot of speculation in the industry, as well.

Jeff has relaunched his Neural Net Profits research service. It is powered by a sophisticated neural network that Jeff’s team developed at a cost of more than $1 million, called The Perceptron. It picks up on short-term trading signals in cryptocurrencies. Additionally, we’ll see U.S. dollar stablecoin projects thrive this year, as more and more financial transactions happen and settle on blockchain technology.

Lift Off for the Space Economy

Jeff expects that Boom Supersonic will succeed in flying its one-third-scale aircraft supersonic in the first half of this year. Boom is the most advanced aerospace company in building a supersonic commercial aircraft capable of traveling at Mach 1.7 with 64-80 passengers. It is an answer to what comes next after the Concorde.

The Trump/Musk partnership will also put NASA back on track for its return to the moon program – Artemis – by 2026. SpaceX will launch at least 15 Starships this year, as it refines the technology of the largest rocket and spacecraft in history.

Radical Shifts in Defense Spending

The U.S. will stop the absurd spending and funding of overseas wars and focus instead on rebuilding a technologically advanced defensive capability for the U.S. military… a peacekeeping military. Representative companies will be Anduril and perhaps General Atomics. The key will be uncrewed, autonomous drones and aircraft. Given the advancements in artificial intelligence and autonomous technology, the nature of warfare has dramatically changed. The use of autonomous drones and uncrewed aircraft will be an explosive trend in 2025, as will the development of intelligent cybersecurity agents to protect against nation-state attacks – most notably those of China on U.S. infrastructure that has commanded an alarming number of headlines in 2024.

Investment will accelerate in advanced technologies in the defense sector, as opposed to the more traditional technological approaches. Western adversaries are using unconventional weapons to infiltrate and fight, and the industry must adjust. We’ll also see an increase in spending on defense as it applies to the U.S. Space Force. The progress with hypersonic technology in 2024 will make space-based defense systems and communications that much more critical as a deterrent to war.

Nuclear’s Next-Generation Renaissance

Energy policy will also become a cornerstone development in 2025 for the new administration. The “pause” that we witnessed in natural gas production in the last four years will be lifted and the industry will start to invest heavily again in natural gas. Energy produced from coal will drop, just as it did during the first Trump administration. There will also be a major policy push to bring both oil prices, and thus gasoline prices, down. The last four years seriously depleted the U.S.’s strategic petroleum reserves – to levels that we haven’t seen since the early ‘80s. Lower prices will be critical to refill those strategic reserves and to ensure energy security for the U.S. economy.

In parallel, there will be strong regulatory support for the recommissioning of nuclear reactors in the U.S., as well as for the commissioning of new fourth-generation small modular reactors (SMRs) to address the shortages in energy production. Nuclear energy will experience a rebirth in 2025. That will be true for both nuclear fission as well as nuclear fusion technology.

Front runners in the nuclear fusion race are General Fusion, Helion, Zap Energy, Commonwealth Fusion, and China-based private company ENN. There may even be a national laboratory in South Korea, China, Japan, Germany, or the U.K. that may make the claim. Jeff predicts record levels of investment in nuclear fusion companies in 2025… precisely because the path is so clear toward net energy production. Institutional capital can now see a path toward commercialization – and ultimately returns – on their invested capital.

The solar power industry will continue to thrive. Investment will continue in solar in markets where it makes sense. And as interest rates come down, solar will benefit from improved project financing.

Energy production from wind, however, will suffer, as it should. Wind power is not economical and environmentally destructive. The carbon footprint of wind turbines is terrible when considering all the minerals that need to be mined, and petroleum needed to keep the wind turbines turning. Not to mention the short lifespans and the fact that turbine blades cannot be recycled. They simply end up in a dump.

AI WILL DRIVE A BIOTECH RESURGENCE

Novel therapies will be developed in a fraction of the time and for a fraction of the cost of the traditional drug discovery process. The use of AI will also reduce toxicity and improve the safety of drugs. When we couple the positive impact of AI on the drug discovery process with the cleanup and streamlining of the relevant health agencies in the U.S., we will naturally see an increase in investment in the biotech sector.

Jeff is confident that 2025 is the year when the government will step back from destructive policies, restore trust, and push ahead on pro-energy, pro-growth, and pro-innovation policies.

How does all of the above fit into Biblical end-times prophecies? It doesn’t, Biblical end-times prophecies is Middle-East centric with Satan’s focus still on destroying Israel. The next major battle is given in Daniel 8, the goat (Yvan) Sunni Turkey putting down (Persia) Shia Iran in an attempt to re-establish a Neo-Ottoman Empire. Watch for it and use it to prove the Bible is God’s word. We know how this ends.

REVIEW OF 2024 ECONOMIC EVENTS

It was a pretty remarkable year in the world of high-tech: The shining light and path towards a world of abundance. 2024 marked the beginning of what Jeff Brown of Brownstone Research calls manifested AI. It is a good framework for how we think about this concept. It is that we humans will manifest artificial intelligence (AI) into forms that will be easy for us to understand and interface with and this is an unstoppable trend and it will be the key driver behind the gains in the NASDAQ in 2025.

The composite index rose an impressive 32% this year. The rise wasn’t across the entire market. The Magnificent Seven, Alphabet, NVIDIA, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Tesla, and Meta had an outsized impact on the index returns for the year. A further rise was fueled by the explosion of artificial intelligence (AI), which defined the year’s performance. And of those seven stocks, it was really NVIDIA, Tesla, and Meta – that drove the average returns of the seven of almost 70% this year.

OpenAI’s ChatGPT became a household name this year. Generative AI from various tech companies is now common in households and workplaces across all demographics and industries. Further, the rate at which AI technology is advancing is astonishing.

Microsoft has been closely linked to the success of OpenAI due to its “controlling” interest in the private company. Meta has developed one of the leading large language models (LLMs). NVIDIA has released its new Blackwell GPUs, which is an impressive jump in performance compared to last year’s model. And Tesla has not only manifested AI in the form of its latest self-driving cars, trucks, and now robotaxis and robovans using its full self-driving (FSD) software – version 13.2, It has also manifested AI in the form of its humanoid robot, Optimus, which will ultimately become a market larger than that of electric vehicles. The incredible investment in AI and the application of AI in businesses is what drove the best gains in the stock market. For reference, hundreds of billions of dollars were spent this year building “AI factories” – data centers designed to both train – and run – AI applications. This has driven outsized share price gains for the key companies powering this trend forward.

The energy required to power these AI factories is huge. The USA with its oil and natural gas reserves and commitment to nuclear energy is well placed to maintain its leadership in the AI space.

Nvidia (NVDA) is finishing up the year with a gain of about 183%. And several of Jeff’s recommendations in Exponential Tech Investor have done even better: AppLovin (APP) is up 732% for the year (and it was up as high as 935% in early December). Credo Technology (CRDO) is up 276% in 2024. Real Brokerage (REAX) has gained 206% this year. In addition, Vertiv (VRT) is up 152% this year. The bottom line is that the right AI stocks were the place to be in 2024.

A look at the video below reveals the big issue facing the USA in the years ahead: robots and AI replacing workers. Amazon was the first to introduce robots to replace workers in their warehouses and now Walmart, Costco, and others are following their lead. Also, imagine the impact driverless cars and trucks will have on jobs. 2025 will be a year of massive change and I am not including the spiritual battle that is coming to a final showdown between Jesus and Satan at the Battle of Armageddon.

In the next post we will take a look at what Jeff Brown thinks of 2025.

NOBEL PRIZE WINNER ISSUES DIRE WARNING ON AI

Geoffrey Hinton and John Hopfield were awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics on October 8th, 2024.

Hinton was awarded the prize for his work on “foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.” It’s why he’s known as the “Godfather of AI.” Hinton is responsible for laying the groundwork for how AI functions today.

Since May 2023, he’s been warning folks about the dangers posed by this burgeoning technology. In fact, he publicly resigned from Alphabet Inc. (GOOG) to be able to speak out more freely about it.

And last Tuesday, when asked about the effect that AI would have on our society, he said:

It will be comparable with the industrial revolution. But instead of exceeding people in physical strength, it’s going to exceed people in intellectual ability. We have no experience of what it’s like to have things smarter than us.

Thanks to AI, we will soon ride in Robotaxis, have personalized treatment plans for major diseases, and much more… totally transforming the way we work, live, and play.

However, some things will change for the worse…

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about the dockworker’s strike and how one of their aims was a total ban on further automation at the nation’s ports. I believed that this was a hopelessly futile endeavor – that AI-driven automation was eventually coming whether they liked it or not. Just as Amazon and Walmart warehouses are becoming totally robotic. They can function 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with no people, no mistakes, no meal breaks, no sickies, and no holidays.

But it’s not just the dockworkers that should be worried. AI is coming for tech jobs, too. In fact, TechCrunch reported that Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Meta, and Microsoft laid off roughly 94,400 people in 2023! And so far this year, the total for tech layoffs is about 141,076! Some of these layoffs are due to workers who were reluctant to return to the office. But many of these layoffs are related to AI as companies rely on software, rather than people, to become more efficient.

Unfortunately, this is just the beginning. We will see layoffs in law enforcement, customer service, medicine, mining, transportation, and much more. Up to 800 million global workers could lose their jobs by 2030, according to a McKinsey study, and 70% of all existing occupations could see a pay cut, according to Wired magazine. We’re talking about a massive wave of economic and societal change.

City-sanctioned safe sleeping site on Fulton Street between Hyde and Larkin Streets in San Francisco, Calif., on Friday, June 12, 2020. Four years later it is much worse.

Governments that have jettisoned God and His commandments are already unable to cope with the consequences. Lawlessness, even anarchy will abound exactly as Scripture prophecies for the last day before Jesus returns to Earth.

Government debt levels are already astronomical so they will not be able to provide relief for AI-induced unemployment. The stage is being set for the Antichrist and a one-world government.

Jesus warns us that increasing persecution is ahead for Christians and we need to trust God no matter the circumstances confident that He will see us through it.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.Matthew 24:9-13

THE IMPACT OF AI & ROBOTICS ON JOBS

Amazon, the online retailer behemoth, is the second-largest private employer in the U.S. – 1.5 million people. It’s also one of the largest investors in AI. It’s building out fully autonomous warehouses… It’s working to automate the delivery process with self-driving vans and delivery drones… and 30% of its “workforce” are already robots.

Robots don’t sleep. They don’t take vacations. They never need a break. So, let me ask you this: How much longer until Amazon decides these robots are ready to take on the full workload of its 1.5 million remaining workers? And what do you think will happen when 1.5 million hardworking Americans are suddenly out of a job?

Amazon is far from the only giant that has done this. Walmart Inc. (WMT), the largest private employer in the U.S., is rolling out fully automated distribution centers using a combination of AI and robots. The company’s distribution centers come with one big catch: No people.

Finding good critical thinkers is one of the most difficult things in business. I’m talking about “knowledge workers” – i.e., accountants, business strategists, lawyers, and doctors – who make optimal decisions, are good at problem-solving, can strategize, and always act in the business’s best interests.

The only thing more difficult than finding one good knowledge worker… is finding multiple. For most of the modern era, knowledge work was difficult to scale. These professions typically require years of education, on-the-job training, and experience. That adds up to lots of time and money.

But now, ChatGPT and other forms of AI are killing that paradigm. It makes it so that businesses can scale critical thinking and knowledge work. It doesn’t matter if you have a blue or white collar: AI could threaten your job.

The Quantum Leap

AI is more of a threat now than it was when ChatGPT made its debut in 2022 because of quantum computing.

In classical computing, data is encoded in binary bits. Transistors are like tiny switches that can either be in the on or off position – represented by ones and zeroes.

Every app you use, website you go to, and photo you take is made up of millions of combinations of ones and zeroes. However, a new kind of computing power surpasses the binary limitations of classical computers.

Quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can represent both 0 and 1 simultaneously due to a concept called superposition. If this all sounds a little confusing, don’t worry. Here’s the critical thing you need to know… Quantum computers allow for multiple computational pathways to be explored at the same time, opening new avenues and speeds for solving complex problems.

Imagine you have a large library and you’re trying to find a specific book. In classical computing, you would search for the book by examining each bookshelf and book one at a time until you find the right one. This approach can be time-consuming, especially if the book you’re looking for is in the back of the library. But imagine a computer so powerful it can explore all the books at once… That’s quantum computing.

It’s been said that the differences between quantum computers and classical computers are even more vast than those between classical computers and pen and paper. That may be an understatement.

We’re talking about machines so advanced that they can instantly execute calculations that would take the world’s most advanced supercomputers nearly half a century to process. It’s not like the transition from the horse and buggy to the automobile. It’s more like horse and buggy to the SR-71 Blackbird… the fastest jet ever made. The difference is utterly mind-blowing.

Quantum computing is real and it’s here. You can think of it as the turbocharger for artificial intelligence. It makes AI faster, more efficient, and more precise.

Quantum computing will give us the ability to solve intractable problems that take so long to tackle using today’s computers that no one even bothers trying. We’re talking about the ability to create, replicate, and commercialize complex analytical thinking and precise physical movement on a scale never seen before… This is the next huge leap forward for the digital elite… the people who have been getting rich while most Americans have been getting left behind.

With quantum computing, the digital elite will have AI that is not constrained by computational speed. Quantum-powered AI will drive efficiencies by getting rid of human workers and driving up corporate profits. No matter the job, robots, software and AI – powered by a new breed of computer – will be able to do it better and cheaper.

I expect that in the quantum era, we will see more technological progress in one month than we are seeing in three years from now. This is the societal and economic equivalent of a 10,000-foot mega-tsunami. It’s about to slam into our world and alter the trajectory of our country forever.

Governments that already have a debt problem that is out of control will be unable to address this unemployment problem and anarchy and lawlessness will be the outcome. The scene is being set for the Biblical prophesied rise of the Antichrist and a one-world government. The recent UN Pact for the Future where world leaders made a landmark declaration pledging concrete actions towards a safer, more peaceful, sustainable, and inclusive world for tomorrow’s generations is a significant move towards a one-world government. My next post will give more detail on the Pact for the Future.

A WORLD IN CRISIS: GOVERNMENT DEBT OUT OF CONTROL AND WORKPLACE CHAOS IMMINENT

One week from tomorrow, Elon Musk and Tesla will hold its “We, Robot” event

It’s expected that the company will reveal its first dedicated robotaxi. This is being heralded as a “game changer” for the future of autonomous transportation.

“We, Robot” is expected to be a watershed moment for Tesla wherein the company introduces its first dedicated robotaxi, tentatively called the “Cybercab.” Tesla is also expected to showcase groundbreaking advancements in Full Self-Driving (FSD) software and artificial intelligence as the company pushes toward a future where human drivers are obsolete.

At the heart of this transportation revolution is a convenient, driverless ride at a fraction of the cost of traditional services. If it’s everything it’s cracked up to be, this will send ripples throughout the automotive, technology, and investment sectors.

Consider what a rollout of Tesla’s robotaxi would mean… With the tap of a button, you can have a car at your disposal, 24/7, at a much lower all-in cost than owning a car (or purportedly, calling an Uber).

Today, car ownership can be a major financial burden. AAA reports that last year, the average annual cost to own and operate a car in the U.S. was about $10,000. A fully autonomous, reliable, ever-present robotaxi would enable consumers to save thousands of dollars by eliminating the need for car ownership.

Yes, there will be plenty of Americans who will still want their own. But if you’re one of the 66.2% of Americans living paycheck-to-paycheck today (according to MarketWatch in August), are you not going to seriously consider letting go of your car to free up thousands of dollars per year?

According to a 2022 study by McKinsey & Co., 25% to 30% of urban dwellers would consider using shared autonomous vehicles as their main transportation mode if it were widely available. And if 25% to 30% of Americans decide to stop buying cars, get ready for a financial earthquake.

First and obviously, we have the major car manufacturers that would be rocked by this size of a reduction in auto demand. We’re talking unprecedented disruption that would require a business-model pivot, and potentially, enormous layoffs.

Cars are parked 95% of the time. If you’re merely “renting” your car, when you’re done with it, it speeds away to service someone else. Such collective ownership of cars will radically explode car efficiency, reducing how many are needed, which would impact how many workers are required. Also, you do not need a garage at home or at work.

Now, consider the knock-on effects… With 25% to 30% fewer drivers (at the beginning – expect this percentage to grow), what happens to the auto insurance industry? According to Benzinga, U.S. auto insurance premiums amount to more than $308 billion per year. So, what happens with far fewer car owners? Do we lose loads of related insurance jobs? Or does the insurance model switch from vehicle coverage to some sort of ride-based individual coverage? What would be the impact on business models?

Next, what about car mechanics and chain repair shops?

What happens when autonomous driving hits our trucking industry? In the U.S., that’s a $216 billion market with roughly 3.5 million drivers. Think “robotrucks” might be disruptive there?

Now, consider the investment implications, good and bad… What will be the impact of all this on the share prices of not just Tesla, but Ford… Alphabet (which owns Waymo, another autonomous driving company)… Uber… Insurance companies… Auto parts manufacturers, and retailers, the list goes on and on… And what about the stocks of the companies that make the components for Tesla’s fleet or robotaxis? All the sensors and semiconductor chips? The plastics? The electronic circuitry?

It is all about technology replacing the need for humans. In 2013, Amazon used about 1,000 robots in its warehouses. Last year, that number clocked in at 750,000 and the savings have been incredible. The warehouses work 24 hours a day non-stop and seven days a week.

Think about the coming impact of AI and automation on, well, everything… It’s already affecting jobs for customer service agents… paralegals and legal assistants… accountants… medical diagnosticians… radiologists… financial analysts… journalists… recruiters… insurance underwriters… and marketing specialists… to name a few. Should we expect it to stop?

It will lead to a chaotic workplace as shown by the International Longshoremen’s Association strike that began yesterday, with dockworkers demanding assurances that the United States Maritime Alliance will never replace human workers with automation? As well, the Screen Actors Guild/Writers Guild of America strikes in 2023, wherein Hollywood workers demanded protection from the rising capabilities of artificial intelligence. Unions will not stop the use of AI and robots and lawlessness and chaos will erupt across cities.

In Matthew 24:12, Jesus told his disciples what will unfold in the end times before He returns to Earth. He says, “And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold”. Christians know what is coming and we need to use Biblical end-times prophecies to evangelize the lost. As these end times prophecies are fulfilled, people will realise God is real and the Bible is God’s word.

HOW AI AND QUANTUM COMPUTING WILL IMPACT EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Amazon and Walmart are good examples of how AI will adversely affect employment opportunities.

The online retailer behemoth, Amazon, is the second-largest private employer in the U.S. – 1.5 million people. It’s also one of the largest investors in AI.

It’s building out fully autonomous warehouses… It’s working to automate the delivery process with self-driving vans and delivery drones… and 30% of its “workforce” are already robots.

Robots don’t sleep. They don’t take vacations. They never need a break. So, let me ask you this: How much longer until Amazon decides these robots are ready to take on the full workload of its 1.5 million remaining workers? And what do you think will happen when 1.5 million hardworking Americans are suddenly out of a job? Biblical prophesied end times lawlessness will be the outcome. Young people will be marching on the streets causing havoc.

And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.Matthew 24:12-13

And Amazon is far from the only giant company doing this. Walmart Inc. (WMT), the largest private employer in the U.S., is rolling out fully automated distribution centers using a combination of AI and robots. The company’s distribution centers are in operation but come with one big catch: There aren’t any people.

What about “knowledge workers” – i.e., accountants, business strategists, lawyers, and doctors – who make optimal decisions, are good at problem-solving, can strategize, and always act in the best interests of the business?

ChatGPT and other forms of AI are killing that paradigm. It makes it so that businesses can scale critical thinking and knowledge work. It doesn’t matter if you have a blue or white collar: AI could be a threat to your job. The reason why AI is more of a threat now than it was when ChatGPT made its debut in 2022 is because of quantum computing. Quantum computers allow for multiple computational pathways to be explored at the same time, opening new avenues and speeds for solving complex problems.

We’re talking about machines so advanced that they can instantly execute calculations that would take the world’s most advanced supercomputers nearly half a century to process.

It’s not like the transition from the horse and buggy to the automobile. It’s more like horse and buggy to the SR-71 Blackbird… the fastest jet ever made. The difference is utterly mind-blowing.

With quantum computing, the digital elite will have AI that is not constrained by computational speed. Quantum-powered AI will drive efficiencies by getting rid of human workers and driving up corporate profits. No matter the job, robots, software, and AI – powered by a new breed of computer – will be able to do it better and cheaper.

This is the societal and economic equivalent of a 10,000-foot mega tsunami. It’s about to slam into our world and alter the trajectory of our world forever. It is amazing that 600 years before Jesus Christ came to Earth for the first time, Daniel was told that the time before Jesus’ second coming to Earth, two of the signs would be that people would be travelling a lot and knowledge would increase. This must have sounded strange to Daniel as he had no concept of air travel and the internet, AI, and quantum computing.

But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.Daniel 12:4

QUANTUM COMPUTING AND HOW IT WILL IMPACT THE JOB MARKET

Look what happened in the 1970s. Robots started becoming widely used in manufacturing… Corporations began using computers to automate routine tasks… record keeping, database management, accounting… Spreadsheet software could do the work of dozens of entry and mid-level workers…

This put incredible downward pressure on our value as workers… and pay. Technology slashes the number of people needed to do a job or complete a task. Technology is a deflationary force on wages.

The blame for America’s huge and rapidly growing wealth divide is often pinned on politics, race, interest rates, or our money. The truth is, it’s a force FAR larger and more powerful than any of those things. And it’s rarely talked about. The ROOT CAUSE of wealth inequality is technology.

The American worker hasn’t received a meaningful raise in pay since the 1970s. Americans have no money anymore because they’re not being paid. One of the most fundamental ideas of America itself is the belief that anyone who works hard and perseveres can get ahead. That is just no longer true. No matter how hard they work – or how well their investments do – people struggle to get ahead… while going deeper and deeper into debt.

In the modern digital economy, a rising tide no longer lifts all boats… just the mega yachts.

This is the biggest problem our country now faces. Being drastically underpaid and underappreciated is something people can only take for so long. America’s streets are quickly becoming ground zero for a class war that’s been building for years. As this crisis worsens, everyone left behind will turn to more extreme measures, creating an upheaval like we’ve never seen before. It will be a war between the haves and have nots. The people who understand this technology and everyone else.

This will have huge implications for the political landscape in the coming years. The outcry over low pay, joblessness, and wealth inequality will lead to American political power tilting more and more towards big government… towards socialist thinking.

Now, large percentages of wealthy households don’t earn enough income to repay their debts. The single-digit millionaire is the new middle class. Politicians will never allow tens of millions of citizens to go bankrupt. The only plausible solution is a nationwide program from which all citizens receive a regular minimum income, without a need to work… A Universal Basic Income. Some might think “There’s no way this could really happen… Not here.” However numerous pilot programs are already underway across the country. Many are being touted as huge successes… with full support from Tech’s top business leaders… And why wouldn’t they? Universal basic income is a dream come true for Big Tech. It’s like a subsidy for the digital elite. Why pay the salaries of millions of hard-working Americans when Uncle Sam will do it for you? That’s the new era into which we are entering.

Certain things are inevitable right now. Corporate bankruptcies will increase as AI and quantum computing go mainstream. New technology drives out old. Not everyone will adapt. Not everyone can adapt. Many of the companies that won’t make it are sitting in retirement accounts, IRAs, and 401(k)s as we speak… We saw this with the Internet revolution. Amazon killed hundreds of retail chains… Uber destroyed cabs… Netflix killed Blockbuster… The iPhone was the death knell for Kodak.

The percentage of stocks that produce good returns is about to go way down. The percentage of stocks that turn out to be losers is about to go way up. It’s like a wealth divide in the stock market. This has already started.

Millions of high-paying jobs will be reduced or eliminated as well… Regardless of what you do… Sometime in the next 5 years, you or someone you know will be replaced by a robot or an algorithm that does that job better. One that never sleeps, never vacations, never gets sick, doesn’t need healthcare or a 401(k).

As it worsens, we’ll see more and more people falling behind. There will be riots, protests, and violence on a scale we’ve never seen before. This is prophesied in God’s Word, the Bible, as the state of the world before Jesus returns to restore righteousness and rule and reign on the Earth for another 1,000 years. Bible prophecy warns us that we are approaching the last seven years before Jesus returns. It will be a time of intense persecution of Christians.

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away, betray, and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.” Matthew 24:9-13

AI IS DEAD IN THE WATER UNLESS RELIABLE SOURCES OF ENERGY ARE AVAILABLE

AI Could Soon Need as Much Electricity as An Entire Country


This graph reveals that for decades the power demands for A.I. closely followed Moore’s Law, doubling roughly every 20 months. However, Moore’s Law was shattered in 2010. And the processing power required to train AI went from doubling every 20 months to doubling every six months. To put this in perspective for you: that’s a 16 trillion percent increase over the last 13 years alone… This growth shows no sign of slowing down. In fact, Epoch AI, a research institute warns: The amount of [computing power] developers use to train their systems will continue increasing at its current accelerated rate. That means in one year, the amount of computing power required to train AI systems will increase by 300%… In 3 years, by 6,300%… In 5 years, by a staggering 102,300%.

Operating and developing new artificial intelligence systems requires unparalleled energy demands… energy demands we cannot currently meet. Consider this: ChatGPT already receives an average of 10 million queries per day. That’s roughly 300 million queries per month. Research from the University of Washington shows it costs around one gigawatt-hour of energy to answer these queries. One gigawatt-hour is roughly the same energy consumed by 33,000 households! And that’s for only one AI program.

The problems are FAR worse at scale. The University of Massachusetts Amherst found that “training a single AI model can emit as much carbon as five cars in their lifetimes.” That’s not operating, just development. And that’s for just ONE of the thousands upon thousands of AI models that are being trained every single day. That’s why, The New York Times reported, by 2027 AI servers are predicted to consume as much as 134 terawatt hours annually. In less than three years, AI will have the same annual energy consumption as countries like Argentina, the Netherlands, and Sweden.

If you really want to make the biggest, most capable super intelligent system you can, you need high amounts of energy.” SAM ALTMANCEO, OPEN AI

The world is actually headed for a really bad energy crisis because of AI unless we fix a few things.” ARIJIT SENGUPTA, FOUNDER, AIBLE

Elon Musk predicts that by 2045 the power demand in the U.S will have tripled from current levels – largely driven by AI’s needs.

Those in the know, understand that unless the insatiable energy demands of artificial intelligence are met, the industry will never go mainstream.

Fossil fuels are the primary energy source used to train and operate AI systems and could continue to meet the growing energy demands…

But that would require the woke Silicon Valley tech companies and progressive politicians to turn their backs on the religion of Climate Change. And with the activists already up in arms about the environmental impact of artificial intelligence, this is untenable to the ruling class. So they’ll argue that renewables like wind and solar should be used to meet the energy demands of AI…

But the reality is that there is ZERO chance of these renewables producing enough low-cost energy to meet AI’s needs. As The Manhattan Institute reported: “Thinking that wind and solar can ever replace fossil fuels is nothing but an “exercise in magical thinking.” Of course, those who have decided that fossil fuels are quite literally the end of humanity don’t care for these facts.

The Ivy League elites continue to lecture us that wind and solar are the ONLY way forward. But let’s look at the data: Recent research has shown that after two decades of intense support for increased clean energy… The proportion of energy provided by these “clean sources” went from a paltry 13-14% to… get this… 15.7%. That’s after global investment and spending on these clean energy solutions hit an estimated $1.4 trillion in 2022. Tell me, after more than twenty years of failure, do you think these green “solutions” will suddenly be able to meet the exponential energy needs of AI. Of course not. Just consider the projected energy consumption of artificial intelligence we discussed earlier, 134 terawatt hours annually. To generate this amount of energy from wind power alone would require almost 17,000 wind turbines. That would take up roughly 2,284 square kilometers, about 1.5-times the size of London – a city of 8.9 million people.

And that’s assuming all this energy went to AI. This is why it’s obvious to me that renewables like wind, solar, and hydro will NEVER meet the energy demands of AI. And this has created a unique situation… The economic, social, and geopolitical incentives behind AI are far too powerful to be stopped.

Even the Biden administration is not incompetent enough to halt the progress on AI development and cede power to our rivals like China and Russia. However, for artificial intelligence development to continue and reach its full potential vast amounts of energy will be required. And there’s only one solution

The U.S. Secretary of Energy, Jennifer Granholm, a radical who makes inane music videos about ending fossil fuels… …has come to admit that… the future of nuclear energy is here and should be protected. JENNIFER GRANHOLM, U.S. SECRETARY OF ENERGY

Hence the U.S. government is adopting nuclear power and recently passed the ADVANCE Act (the Accelerating Deployment of Versatile, Advanced Nuclear for Clean Energy)

Its stated mission is to: “Boost development and deployment of new nuclear technologies, incentivize expansion in America, […] and help position the U.S. as the world’s leader in nuclear energy.”

Miraculously, this is one of the only bills this year that made it through the Senate with bipartisan support… which highlights the importance of nuclear energy, not just for the future of AI, but for the country. In fact, the US Department of Energy recently went so far as to say: Nuclear power is intrinsically tied to national security.”

While it’s refreshing to finally see D.C. pass legislation that is grounded in reality and that will benefit the country, there’s a problem. After decades of negative attention and pressure from the mainstream media, the U.S. has been closing nuclear power plants.

In 1998, the number of operating reactors declined to 104 and remained there through 2013… When the number then declined even further to 92 in 2022. On top of that, nuclear power has only provided 20% of total annual U.S. electricity generation from 1990 through 2021- that’s 31 years of stagnation. In fact, Plant Vogtle in Waynesboro, Georgia, will be America’s first new nuclear plant since the 1990’s.

The only catch? It took 15 years to build… and it cost more than $30 billion. This is a massive milestone for Waynesboro and the country. The plant is projected to power 500,000 homes and businesses for the next 60 to 80 years… but Plant Vogtle’s story exposes a brutal truth: Building nuclear power plants is expensive, time-consuming, and complicated.

This means that traditional nuclear power plants will be unable to meet the exponentially growing energy demands of the AI sector. It could take decades for the U.S. to build out the necessary infrastructure.

However, thanks to a single decision on February 21 last year… a new type of nuclear energy will be able to provide practically endless clean energy all across the country. A new technology was recently approved by the U.S. government… and it’s THIS technology that will act as the Keystone for the AI industry. It enables AI companies to use nuclear energy – easily, quickly, and without spending years and billions of dollars to develop power plants. It’s a revolutionary new technology that allows us to build hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of nuclear facilities all across the country. At 1/50th the cost and in 1/5th the amount of time. To say this is a historical development would be an understatement. It is a generational achievement that, according to former Presidential advisor David Durham is A game-changing technology. DAVID DURHAMFMR. PRESIDENTIAL ADVISOR

It’s something that former White House Deputy, Matt Bennett, believes will… Save the world. MATT BENNETT FMR. WHITE HOUSE DEPUTY

So what is this technology that I believe will be the Keystone of the artificial intelligence industry for decades to come. It’s a nuclear power plant named after a Nobel-prize winning scientist named Enrico Fermi. Fermi was one of the greatest geniuses of the last 100 years and is considered the father of nuclear energy. it was the world’s first small modular nuclear reactor (SMR). As the name implies, an SMR is a nuclear reactor that produces nuclear energy but is MUCH smaller than a typical reactor. It has all the advantages of a nuclear reactor, with almost none of the disadvantages.

  • It can produce electricity without overheating.
  • It can self-regulate.
  • It can be paired with renewable resources.
  • It can be built in two years (as opposed to ten).
  • It can be deployed on top of shuttered coal plants, of which we have 300 in America right now… This is what Bill Gates’ nuclear company – TerraPower – has done. They’ve staked their claim at the site of a retired coal plant.
  • An SMR can produce energy for 10 years without being refueled, whereas a typical reactor has to be refueled every 18 to 24 months

This is why, as our energy needs continue to surge, SMRs are gaining the attention of governments all around the world. They know green energy can’t meet the demands so hundreds of billions of dollars are pouring into the development of SMRs. Right now, 80 different SMR designs are being developed in 19 different countries. Three have already begun operating. Others will soon follow. And when they do, the world will never be the same again.

For the first time ever, we will be able to provide nuclear energy to ANYONE, ANYWHERE, AT ANYTIME. And we’ll be able to do it WITHOUT having to spend billions of dollars on reactors that take a decade to build. And this is why Small Nuclear Reactors (SMRs) are the Keystone technology to the AI industry. It’s the ONLY way tech companies can meet the energy demands of artificial intelligence without fossil fuels.

In five… ten… even fifteen years from now… When we’re looking back on the craze of the AI boom, the top investments won’t be the company with the best artificial intelligence. The real winners will be those who master the SMR. Consider Sam Altman’s SMR startup, Oklo. He plans to take it public this year for upwards of $500 million dollars. Why? In his own words: “If the use of artificial intelligence scales up, it will demand a lot of energy… I don’t see a way for us to get there without nuclear.” SAM ALTMAN CEO, OPEN AI

He not only serves as the chairman of Oklo, the startup working to commercialize nuclear fission with microreactors… But he’s also invested $375 million in Helion – that’s right; another nuclear company – marking the “biggest investment [he’s] ever made” Helion is a nuclear energy startup working on systems that are “smaller, a lot faster to iterate, and then gets […] to commercially useful electricity […] as soon as possible.” Sam Altman – is ALL-IN on nuclear microreactors.

In addition to Oklo, a number of other companies are working on “new breeds” of advanced microreactors… Including GE Hitachi, Holtec, Kairos Power, NuScale Power, TerraPower, and X-energy. However, despite the potential of these companies, I don’t recommend you go near them. You see, there is one major roadblock each of them faces. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). In November 2022, the NRC denied “without prejudice” Oklo’s application to build and operate the company’s Aurora microreactor in Idaho. The reason? “Failure to provide information on several key topics.” Vague, confusing, and totally unhelpful – classic bureaucrats!

The company that is building small nuclear reactors is BWXT and it’s got the backing of the US government. BWXT will build the first advanced full-scale transportable nuclear microreactor in the USA under a contract awarded by the US Dept. of Defence (DoD) Strategic Capabilities Office. To be completed and delivered in 2024 for testing at the Idaho National Laboratory.

Poland’s first two nuclear stations will be BWRX-300 small modular reactors. By the end of the year, 20 locations will be presented to local communities, with the first SMR reactor set to be built between 2028 and 2029.

BWX Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BWXT) today announced a two-phase, two-year contract with the Wyoming Energy Authority to assess the viability of deploying small-scale nuclear reactors in the state as a source of resilient and reliable energy to augment existing power generation resources. 03/21/2023

Man taking God’s place in controlling His universe will soon end. In Australia, the present government has ruled out the use of nuclear energy and is charging ahead with wind and solar. What madness. We need Holy Spirit-led people in power who can make Godly decisions. Fortunately, Biblical prophecy tells us that Satan and man’s control of Earth is coming to an end.

What energy sources will Jesus use during His Millennial reign to power the world? Will nuclear fusion be perfected for energy use? God uses nuclear fusion for the sun to provide the heat needed to sustain life on Earth so I think it is a natural alternative energy source..

                                                                                                        

TECHNOCHASM PART 2 – MORE ON AI

Some technologies possess such incalculable and unpredictable power that their impact can extend far beyond the wildest guesses of their inventors. AI is one of those technologies.

But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase. Daniel 12:4

This prophecy given by the Angel Gabriel to Daniel 600 years before Jesus Christ is astounding. Young people today are travelling like no generation before it and knowledge is increasing exponentially like no generation before it, We are living in the prophesied end times prior to Jesus Christ’s return. Lawlessness is increasing, persecution of Christians is increasing, apostasy/falling away – many church denominations are compromising with the world, the number and intensity of natural disasters are increasing, all of these are prophesied end times signs.

Last Monday, executives at International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) said they expect to freeze hiring for jobs that they believe AI can do. In an interview with Bloomberg, IBM CEO Arvind Krishna estimates that up to 7,800 jobs could be affected by the freeze. Then on Monday evening, during his company’s earnings call, Chegg, Inc. (CHGG) CEO Dan Rosensweig said: In the first part of the year, we saw no noticeable impact from ChatGPT on our new account growth and we were meeting expectations on new sign-ups. However, since March we saw a significant spike in student interest in ChatGPT. We now believe it’s having an impact on our new customer growth rate. The online education company’s shares tumbled a massive 48% on Tuesday. With AI, we’ll see more wild news like that out next week… and the week after that… and every week after that.

Just five days after the release of ChatGPT, more than 1 million people tried it out. Shortly after that, ChatGPT reached 100 million active users, making it the fastest-growing computer application in history.

Companies that are beginning to use so-called generative AI like ChatGPT and DALL-E (a tool for AI-generated art) are seeing huge success.

In the most recent round of Big Tech earnings, the CEOs from Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) and Alphabet, Inc. (GOOG) talked at length about the potential for AI, from building their own models to rapidly integrating AI into their products.

Bank of America, Corp. (BAC) noted in a recent report on AI trends that “Big Tech is now engaged in an AI arms race developing their own ChatGPT-like chatbots and incorporating AI into their search engines.” They go on to say they estimate that AI could contribute up to $15.7 trillion to the global market by 2030.

So the uses and implications of AI are beyond enormous. At its core, AI is a technology that has the ability to analyze trillions of data points, in real-time, to make stunningly accurate predictions about the likelihood of future events.

The AI assault on jobs and businesses is starting. Even lawyers are feeling the pinch. AI is better at drawing up contracts than lawyers.

What about the use of AI for investment advice: harness the power of AI in your Portfolio says Louis Navellier of Investor Place: “My AI-powered stock selection system can predict a stock’s success OR failure – weeks and even months ahead of time. It is designed to identify the optimal entry and exit points for fast-moving stocks.

Look what Investor Place is saying about AI and major corporations such as Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet.

 The AI world consists of two broad categories: AI creators and AI appliers.

Within the former category, many of the leaders are either private companies or small divisions within large public companies. So the universe of investible AI creators is relatively small.

On the other hand, AI appliers are everywhere… and growing by the day – companies as diverse as beauty-products purveyors, manganese miners, industrial-solutions providers, and renewable-energy managers. Each of these companies is applying specific AI technologies to its processes. But that doesn’t mean these companies are “AI plays.” Although they are all utilizing some type of AI – and will continue to do so – AI is not yet a significant contributor to their overall profit growth trajectory.

Big Tech names like Microsoft Corp. (MSFT)Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), and Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) are best positioned to capitalize on the early phases of the coming AI boom. For one thing, these companies have been quietly investing billions of dollars in AI during the last several years. AI is building an entirely new foundation for explosive growth – a growth of such incalculable proportions that it could add trillions of dollars to the trillion-dollar market values Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet already possess.

Two years ago Microsoft spent nearly $20 billion to buy Nuance Communications, “a pioneer and a leading provider of conversational AI and cloud-based ambient clinical intelligence for healthcare providers.” Incredibly, 90% of the world’s hospitals use Nuance’s solutions.

Earlier this year, Microsoft poured $10 billion into OpenAI, the creator of the ChatGPT bot that has become an “overnight” sensation. Microsoft previously invested $1 billion in the AI company in 2019.

Alphabet Inc is also investing billions into AI technologies of various sorts. Obviously, the company invests heavily in the AI that powers its Google search engine. But Alphabet has also become a major investor/player in healthcare AI. Its GoogleHealth division is investing in cutting-edge AI applications like genome analytics, deep learning from individual health records, and accelerated diagnoses of certain ailments.

Amazon’s AWS web services division may be its single greatest AI asset. AWS offers the industry’s most comprehensive set of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine-learning services, infrastructure, and implementation resources. More than 100,000 customers use AWS for their AI/ML workloads. And since AWS is the world’s largest cloud service provider, it is not hard to imagine that the nascent AI boom will produce an echo boom of profit growth at AWS. Already, Amazon’s “Intelligent Cloud” division is the company’s largest source of revenue and profit.
