ROBOTS EVERYWHERE IN OUR SOCIETY: INDUSTRY, HOMES, TRANSPORT, EVEN ENTERTAINMENT

Posted on by

According to Chinese media, The Economic Observer, the CEO of Nvidia, Jensen Huang, arrived in Beijing on January 19th 2025, for Nvidia’s branch annual meeting, where he dined with Xingxing Wang, CEO of humanoid robot maker Unitree Robotics, and He Wang, founder of Galbot (Robotics). Both are representatives of a younger generation of Chinese tech entrepreneurs born in the 1990s, now in their early 30s.

Chinese media China Star Market also reported that Xingxing Wang shared a photo with Huang on social media, captioned: “New year, new beginning, let’s go!” The report highlighted that Huang held meetings with high-level representatives from several leading Chinese robotics companies during his time in Beijing. Aside from Unitree Robotics and Galbot, attendees included executives from LimX Dynamics, Booster Robotics, and Kecheng Huang, co-founder of Emerging AI.

Another media outlet China Entrepreneur noted that Huang and Unitree’s Wang are not strangers to each other. In March 2024, during the GTC conference, Huang showcased nine humanoid robots, including those from Unitree. At CES 2025, Nvidia also announced its partnerships with Chinese robotics companies such as Unitree Robotics and XPeng Robotics.

We should not be surprised that China has many companies making robots as it is the largest market for robots, followed by Japan, and America third. This seems strange in a country with so much cheap labour compared to the rest of the world.

Peter Diamandis, a serial entrepreneur, futurist, technologist, and New York best-selling author, says that by 2026, we should have humanoid robots in private homes helping with laundry, vacuuming, and dishes, at least in beta testing. By 2040, there could be as many as 10 billion globally in all areas of the economy, and their labour might be as cheap as $10 a day.

In the future, they’ll be everywhere in our economy, Diamandis says: in healthcare, manufacturing, the service industry, public and urban spaces, transport, and even entertainment. This is such a transformational change that analysts don’t yet really understand how to estimate its value: Goldman Sachs says selling humanoid robots will be a $38 billion space by 2035, while Ark Invest says the resulting economic value of their labour could be as high as $24 trillion.

Judging by the debt levels of most governments in the Western world, they are out of control and unable to manage effectively. Imagine the impact of massive job losses due to companies replacing employees with robots. Currently, Amazon’s warehouses are already set to replace human workers with 100,000 robots. This is just one more reason governments will accept giving over governance to the Biblical prophesied one-world government. In September 2024, world leaders adopted the U.N. Pact for the Future, a landmark declaration pledging concrete actions towards a safer, more peaceful, sustainable and inclusive world for tomorrow’s generations. The Pact’s five broad focus areas include: sustainable development, international peace and security, science and technology, youth and future generations, and transforming global governance.

We are fast approaching the last seven years before Jesus returns first to rapture His church and then to pour out His wrath upon an unrepentant world. The speed with which end-times Biblical prophecies are being fulfilled is exciting and proof that the Bible is the inspired word of God.

THE FUTURE WITH AGI AND THE MARK OF THE BEAST

Posted on by

AI is improving at an exponential rate. And we’re quickly reaching a tipping point where the future will look nothing like the past. This point is known as artificial general intelligence (AGI). It is the top level of artificial intelligence. Some even call it humanity’s final invention.

Artificial general intelligence refers to AI that can mimic human cognitive abilities. To put it simply, AI is becoming smarter than the smartest human.

There are already some  signs of what AGI will look like. Last month, OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, claimed that its most advanced AI models are now bordering on the second of five levels of “Super AI.” Many people can no longer tell the difference between AI chatbots and human-generated text responses. 

AI will turbocharge the robotics trend. Last week, OpenAI-backed robotics startup Figure AI released a two-minute video of its humanoid robots completing tasks at a BMW plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina (see video below). These machines are now capable of learning from their mistakes and, unlike their robotic arm predecessors, are designed to move in spaces made for humans. That allows them to take on directly competing roles. 

Back in January, Elon Musk’s Neuralink company implanted the first N1 device in the brain of a quadriplegic patient… and it worked. The patient could play chess online and browse the internet with only his mind.

Now, one of Musk’s R1 robots has successfully implanted one of Neuralink’s N1 chips in the brain of a second paraplegic patient. According to Neuralink, the N1 interprets neural activity and makes it available for computers. Then, the person can control external devices with their mind, alone. Musk and his team of researchers and engineers call this “electrophysiological recording.”

According to Musk, Neuralink initially aims to restore mobility in paralyzed people, with subsequent goals of restoring sight to the blind and hearing to the deaf. In short, the N1 device could benefit millions of people with miracle-like cures. If things go as Musk’s team predicts, the paralyzed will walk, the blind will see, and the deaf will hear.

Musk does not know that we are fast approaching the time when the Antichrist and the False Prophet force everybody to take the Mark of the Beast on their right hand or forehead. Could Musk’s Neuralink technology play a role in implementing the Mark of the Beast?

“Also it (False Prophet) causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.” Revelation 13:16-17

Church time is short: let us make sure we are in step with the Holy Spirit. He will direct our steps if we allow Him. Like Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, we need to say not my will but yours be done this day and every day until Jesus returns.

“Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” Luke 22:42

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM 2024 AGENDA & AI

Sam Altman is looking ahead to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) — and a quiet life

The CEO of OpenAI made a big splash this year in Davos, where AI was referenced in nearly every session. As part of the official WEF agenda, Altman sat on a panel in Congress Hall, the event’s largest meeting venue, with the CEOs of corporate heavyweights Accenture, Pfizer, and Salesforce, along with British finance minister Jeremy Hunt. On the conference sidelines, at a lunch hosted by Salesforce co-founder Marc Benioff, Altman was the surprise guest speaker — and the victim of a minor grilling by Benioff about his personal goals for the next 10 years.

“In our industry, people are always overestimating [what they can accomplish] in a year but underestimating what they’re able to do in one decade and certainly in a couple of decades,” Benioff said. “So tell me, in one decade, where is your mind? What would you like to have under your belt, fully accomplished? Where do you see yourself? Where would you be living? What would you be doing? … What is going on? Give us the full picture now.”

After the laughter died down, the recently married Altman replied, “I think the definition of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) has become so fuzzy, it’s sort of irrelevant. But I think in a decade we will have made something that most people will consider AGI. I hope to be working on that, watching this wonderful world unfold, living on our ranch, raising our kids, having as quiet of a life as I can.”

Somebody needs to tell Altman that the only way he can have a peaceful life is when he acknowledges God as our Creator, fears Him, and accepts His offer of salvation by accepting Jesus as his Lord and Saviour.

God has told us what will unfold in the years ahead and it is not peaceful. It will be a time of escalating tribulation for Christians and Jews that the world has never experienced before. God will use the persecution to purify His church. Already we are seeing much of the institutional church, falling away, compromising with the world on issues such as homosexual pastors, gay marriage, and transgenderism.

God gives us a picture of the apostate church. It is the Church of Laodicea (Revelation 3:14-22). Jesus comes to rapture His church (Church of Philadelphia – Revelation 3:8-13) before God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet (Revelation 8&9) and Bowl judgements (Revelation 16).

Our unrepentant family and friends need to be warned of what they are facing if they do not repent of their rebellion against God and accept His offer of salvation and eternal life achieved by God’s son, Jesus.

“For our sake, he (God the Father) made Him (Jesus Christ – God the Son) to be sin who knew no sin so that in Him (Jesus) we might become the righteousness of God.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

The judgements escalate as we proceed through the Trumpet and Bowl judgements. Let me show you what people on Earth face at the fifth Trumpet judgement.

“And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit… Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. They were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.” Revelation 19:1, 3-6

This is what is called apocalyptic evangelism. Using the many end times Biblical prophecies to show the truth of God’s Word and the consequences of not fearing the God who created them in His image to be in relationship with Him.
