Artificial Intelligence asked question about God/Trump/2 AI argue

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Artificial Intelligence will become more human like ability as we get closer to the Tribulation they will play a part in the Prophetic word of God in the book of 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.****In this video an AI named Sofia will be called an Image.****these AI will be worshipped as they become more advance; even to the point of having relations with these advance AI…don’t be surprise its been taking place already in Japan; its is evil; man thoughts the bible says is evil continuously.

Spiders can fly hundreds of miles with the help of the electric fields on Earth

Posted by in category: futurism

Air conducts electricity. In the vicinity of the Earth, the electrical conductivity of the atmosphere is — fortunately — very low. However, already about 50 km above the Earth, air becomes a good conductor of electricity.


By this method, spiders can float away from their predators or any competitors. They can even go to any new land where there is an abundance of resources. It is an effective way of traveling for spiders a report by The Atlantic explained. The spiders have been observed to have gone as high as two-and-a-half miles up in the air and as far as 1,000 miles out in the sea.

It is generally believed that ballooning can work as the silk strands catch the wind and tend to drag the spider along with the flow. However, it has been observed that spiders balloon only when there is light wind speed. But such low wind speed can barely move the silk strands let alone move the entire spider or provide high acceleration.

The Machine — A Thought Experiment That Changes Your Life

Posted by in category: futurism

Thank you to the data skills learning platform DataCamp for sponsoring this video. Use my link to try the first chapter of any course for free: https://bit.ly/3bo9Uq7

(This story is inspired by Robert Nozick’s “experience machine” thought experiment, which can be found in his book, “Anarchy, State, and Utopia.”) In this story, we follow one of the future’s most influential thinkers as he encounters a new technology that changes everything and forces him to rethink his entire life and work.

A new, genetically modified purple tomato may hit the grocery market stands

Posted by in category: genetics

It tastes like a tomato, smells like a tomato, and even looks (mostly) like a tomato. There’s just one catch: It’s purple.
