Look Up:

● What do these scriptures say about God?
●What do they say about people?
●How will I apply this to my life?
Look Ahead: Honestly examine the tools and technologies you use most. Are
they enhancing or replacing your dependence on “Divine Intelligence”?
Notes
As we learn more about AI, we need to make sure we are not forgetting
divine intelligence. We need to remember that Artificial Intelligence is
“artificial” and learn to use it carefully. We can use AI to prepare and
analyze, then let the Spirit direct our decisions. We may use AI to find
resources and let God’s Word guide us. We can use AI to investigate,
however never let it settle a question that belongs to God to answer.
Tools are useful and community matters, but there is no substitute for
connecting directly with God. Only humans can pray. That is not a
limitation God forgot to fix – it is a gift He gave exclusively to us.
