Revelation 13:14-15 ChatGPT and giving life to the image of the beast
1. Revelation 13:14-15 ChatGPT and giving life to the image of the beast
2. Revelation 13
3. Revelation 13:14-15 ChatGPT and giving life to the image of the beast
In early 2023, the software-based system called ChatGPT developed by a company called OpenAI.
We’ve trained a model called ChatGPT which interacts in a conversational way. The dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer followup questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests. ChatGPT is a sibling model to InstructGPT, which is trained to follow an instruction in a prompt and provide a detailed response. From their web site at
https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt (as of 2023-01-27).
The "
GBT" stands for
GPT = Generative Pretrained Transformer.
4. Wikipedia
Although the core function of a chatbot is to mimic a human conversationalist, ChatGPT is versatile. For example, it has the ability to write and debug computer programs; to compose music, teleplays, fairy tales, and student essays; to answer test questions .. to write poetry and song lyrics ...

5. Statistical pattern matching
AI (Artificial Intelligence) is a field that might be better phrased as "
Machine intelligence". There are two main approaches to
AI with mixtures used in practice.
Rules-based (right-brained)
Pattern-based (left-brained)
ChatGPT uses a lot of statistical pattern-based recognition and generation using, behind the scenes, a lot of "
source text" as examples.
6. Google Translate
Such pattern matching has been used for many years by Google in Google Translate.
ChatGPT takes these ideas to a new level.
Note that since ChatGPT is server-based, the company has access to all queries providing feedback for improvement of the system.
7. Arthur C. Clarke: Magic
Arthur C. Clarke (science fiction author) has said that "
Sufficiently advanced technology and magic are indistinguishable.".
Arthur C. Clarke was the author of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Sometimes artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc. seem like magic.
8. Realistic images and sound
Revelation talks of "
beasts" and the "
Beast" and deception and makes technology statements whose "
magic" appears to be getting closer and closer.
Revelation 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [kjv]
και πλανα τους κατοικουντας επι της γης δια τα σημεια α εδοθη αυτω ποιησαι ενωπιον του θηριου λεγων τοις κατοικουσιν επι της γης ποιησαι εικονα τω θηριω ος εχει την πληγην της και εζησεν [gnt]
How can one give "life" unto the "image of the beast"?
Can we make realistic moving images in real time?
Can we make realistic voice sounds in real time?
9. Revelation 13:14
KJV: And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
Greek: και πλανα τους κατοικουντας επι της γης δια τα σημεια α εδοθη αυτω ποιησαι ενωπιον του θηριου λεγων τοις κατοικουσιν επι της γης ποιησαι εικονα τω θηριω ο ος εχει την πληγην της μαχαιρας μαχαιρης και εζησεν
10. Realistic images and sound
Revelation 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. [kjv]
και εδοθη αυτη δουναι πνευμα τη εικονι του θηριου ινα και λαληση η εικων του θηριου και ποιηση ινα οσοι μη προσκυνησωσιν τη εικονι του θηριου αποκτανθωσιν [gnt]
What is the "
power to give life unto the image of the beast"?
Virtual reality technology now makes this possible.
Animation of human features are becoming more and more life-like.
11. Revelation 13:15
KJV: And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Greek: και εδοθη αυτω αυτη δουναι πνευμα τη εικονι του θηριου ινα και λαληση η εικων του θηριου και ποιηση ινα οσοι αν εαν μη προσκυνησωσιν την εικονα τη εικονι του θηριου ινα αποκτανθωσιν
