ChatGPT INTEGRATION PLEASE🔥🔥🔥

The law of the handicap of a head start (original Dutch: Wet van de remmende voorsprong), first-mover disadvantage, or dialectics of lead, is a theory that suggests that an initial head start in a given area may result in a handicap in the long term.
The lesson that Blackberry learned.

Logos,

you integrate AI by catching up FAST or you could be obsolete. No time for lunch breaks.

But I will still use Logos, with or without AI, because I paid big bucks for this.

Very interesting, I haven’t experimented too much with google bard, but I love all the opportunities that chatgpt is opening up and how easy it is to learn things through the software. Does google bard provide footnotes or sources? I’ve become very familiar with inputting prompts for chatgpt that restrict what resources it will acquire its answers from, but does google bard do this? of course all this technology is still very much in the early phases. Exciting years to come!

I also tried this questioning:

Analyse Colossians 2:12 in a morphology matter and give me an exegetical report of it and hermeneutical insights. And are there any textual variants in Colossians 2:12 and what do scholars says about the plausibility or ambiguity of this? Can you mention where you got the information from?

Renold’s question: 

Analyse Colossians 2:12 in a morphology matter and give me an exegetical report of it. 

Google Bard AI:

Sure. Here is a morphological analysis of Colossians 2:12:

Renold's reaction:[:O]

Can you believe this? If this is true then we must get ready for a revolution in studying our bible. There more differences between the morphology Bard suggest and what Logos states. 

Observation:

Google Bard:

• Present participle active: συνταφέντες (suntafentes)

Logos Bible Morphology 

• Aorist participle active: συνταφέντες (suntafentes)

I prompted these three separate questions? I already know the answer of it but I was curious to find out what Google Bard can come up with to test it's reliability. 

1. What is the background of the words, 'No friend of Caesar' in John 19:12
2. How did the words, 'No friend of Caesar' in John 19:12 relates to Pilate and Roman Empire?
3. Are there peer reviewed journals about the phrase, friend of Caesar? Explain, summarise.

It gave me an explanation and summarised it with some sources included. Go ahead and check it out.

.

I have been using Google sheets already to provide  things - like  background information... key observations... sermon ideas... questions people ask about the text etc.. I can type in a verse and quickly get an overview of the chapter of Scripture I am studying.. I am not wanting it to create content -- but to help me research quicker... If this was part of Logos... I wish that logos library could be accessed in this manner.. I understand the cost of AI is crazy... so don't expect it.

AI was brought up at the SBC yesterday, and a resolution put forward.

3: ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES
WHEREAS, All technology, including powerful tools such as artificial intelligence (AI), is created by human beings with the gifts and abilities that
God has granted to us as the pinnacle of the created order (Genesis 1:26-28, 2:7, 5:1-2) and can be harnessed for human flourishing as we seek
to love God and neighbor (Deuteronomy 6:4-5; Leviticus 19:18; Matthew 22:37-39; Mark 12:30-31); and
WHEREAS, Although these tools are designed with distinct values and purposes in mind and shape us in subtle, yet meaningful ways—including
our understanding of God, humanity, and the world around us—we alone, as distinct moral agents created by God, bear the moral responsibility
for their development and use (Romans 12:1-2); and
WHEREAS, The Fall has adversely affected every aspect of creation, including the development and use of these powerful innovations; and
WHEREAS, AI raises deep, crucial questions that challenge society’s false assumptions about what it means to be human which are often rooted
merely in human capacities rather than in divinely granted ontological status; and
WHEREAS, AI and other emerging technologies afford us unprecedented opportunities for advancement across industries and throughout our
societies, but may also have dangerous and dehumanizing outcomes if not utilized with godly wisdom and discernment; and
WHEREAS, Technologies are often developed and deployed merely to maximize profit, efficiency, and productivity, including at the grave cost of
the dignity of our fellow image bearers; and
WHEREAS, These emerging technologies will increasingly perform tasks once reserved for humanity and even surpass human ability in particular
ways; and
WHEREAS, The Baptist Faith and Message states that “[a]ll Christians are under obligation to seek to make the will of Christ supreme in our own
lives and in human society” and that we “should seek to bring industry, government, and society as a whole under the sway of the principles of
righteousness, truth, and brotherly love” (Article XV); and
WHEREAS, The 2019 Evangelical Statement of Principles on AI, led by our own Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, states that Christians are
“called to engage the world around us with the unchanging gospel message of hope and reconciliation” and that “[t]he church has a unique role
in proclaiming human dignity for all and calling for the humane use of AI in all aspects of society”; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the messengers to the Southern Baptist Convention meeting in New Orleans, Louisiana, June 13-14, 2023, acknowledge the
powerful nature of AI and other emerging technologies, desiring to engage them from a place of eschatological hope rather than uncritical
embrace or fearful rejection; and be it further
RESOLVED, That we affirm that God’s unchanging Word is more than sufficient for whatever ethical challenges, questions, and opportunities we
may face today or in the future as these technologies continue to be developed and deployed in our communities; and be it further
RESOLVED, That we state unequivocally that our intrinsic value is as image bearers—not rooted in what we do or contribute to society—and that
human dignity must be central to any ethical principles, guidelines, or regulations for any and all uses of these powerful emerging technologies;
and be it further
RESOLVED, We must proactively engage and shape these emerging technologies rather than simply respond to the challenges of AI and other
emerging technologies after they have already affected our churches and communities; and be it further
RESOLVED, That we call upon civic, industry, and government leaders to develop, maintain, regulate, and use these technologies with the utmost
care and discernment, upholding the unique nature of humanity as the crowning achievement of God’s creation; and be it further
RESOLVED, That we encourage all who employ these tools to do so in honest, transparent, and Christlike ways that focus on loving God and loving
our neighbor as ourselves, never seeking to willfully deceive others or take advantage of them for unjust gain or the accumulation of power; and
be it finally
RESOLVED, That we confess that God alone has the power to create life, that “God, in His own time and in His own way, will bring the world to its
appropriate end” (Baptist Faith and Message, Article X), and that no innovation or emerging technology will ever be able to usurp the sovereignty
and power of God.

Although not a SBCer myself. Kudos for their well-thought-out and sane response to AI, choosing to look at the Word of God instead of jumping on the cultural bandwagon and perpetuating a narrative of fear around AI. The existing technology is amoral, even if it can "mimic" human behavior, like ChatGPT. The development or use of technology can be helpful (morally good) or harmful (morally evil). We need to be discerning, which I think was part of the SBC resolution. I don't think anyone should accept a technology before weighing the benefits against the risks. As new technologies arise, and they will, we need to understand the benefits and dangers before judging their suitability.

Back to ChatGPT

Even though ChatGPT seems to be a catchall and target for all things AI, the truth is that AI apps for both good and bad uses have been around for a decade or so. It is sad - that both the government and private citizens are just now becoming aware of AI. We are way behind the curve in understanding it and have chosen to focus on only one or two of its dangers. This is not surprising because, historically, the need for government regulation of a technology is often years behind. We continue to put up with email and phone spam technology year after year without seeing any effective government regulation to reduce or stop it. Anyone using Google, Facebook, Spotify, Alexis, Cantona, and the list goes on and on is using an app that interfaces with AI. By my count, I am up to at least 400 AI apps using AI. AI is already heavily integrated into social media and non-social media apps. Please check it out yourself. I digress. I apologize.

Suppose LOGOS adopts AI to up their game in content retrieval from their libraries, and they use their own proprietary AI app that they configure and maintain. They should not have to be concerned about using AI programming. Again it goes back to the development and use of the technology.

In case you are wondering. This response was generated by ChatGPT - NOT!!!! But I did use Grammarly, and if you guessed correctly, Grammarly uses AI.

OH I fully expect AI is more deeply integrated into our lives than we'd expect. This mac I'm writing on has a chip with a neural engine built in. AI will most likely be an increasingly obvious part of life going forward. The genie is out of the proverbial bottle. Hopefully we use it in good ways.

While watching the convention in the acts2 app, I saw a QR code on the convention screen, paused, scanned it, and got the link to the paper they give out at the convention which had all the resolutions on it. I'll see if I can find the link and see if it's still up. 

Wonderful, thanks guys! What an incredible time in church history God has placed us. It's exciting to see everyone thinking through this stuff, from this little forum post to denominational conventions!

Only if you want false information fed to you while studying the scriptures ... If I could not turn this off, it would actually dissuade me from purchasing further Logos resources.

Same here. And I'm taken back at how everyone is clamoring for this new tower of Babel to be constructed.

Knowing how riddled with errors AI is everywhere, I'm not impressed; as I care to know who I am getting my information from, and it is not some lame aggregator that also haphazardly concocts "new" ideas.

Needless to say, I don't want that anywhere near my Bible studies which is based on the pursuit of truth, and an endeavor to escape errors, while desperately trying not to introduce more errors.

Should Logos throw in some junk AI engine, then I'm retreating back to some other Bible software with basic searches... even without the plethora of resources I have purchased already.
