   Time will tell to what extent AI will be used for good or for bad.   
   What does the Bible say?   
   Why human efforts create uncertainty   
      
   The Bible shows why humans cannot guarantee that their technological   
   advances will result in being used only for good.   
      
       1. Even when people have good intentions, they may not foresee the   
   negative effects of their actions.   
      
           “There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it   
   leads to death.”—Proverbs 14:12.   
      
       2. A person has no control over how others will use—or misuse—his   
   work.   
      
           “I must leave [my work] behind for the man coming after me.   
   And who knows whether he will be wise or foolish? Yet he will take   
   control over all the things I spent great effort and wisdom to acquire   
   under the sun.”—Ecclesiastes 2:18, 19.   
      
   Such uncertainty highlights why we need guidance from our Creator.   
   Where we can put our confidence   
      
   Our Creator promises that he will never allow humans or any technology   
   that humans create to destroy the earth or mankind.   
      
       “The earth remains forever.”—Ecclesiastes 1:4.   
      
       “The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever   
   on it.”—Psalm 37:29.   
      
   Through the Bible, our Creator gives us guidance that will lead to a   
   peaceful and secure future. To learn more about what the Bible says,   
   read the articles “Is There a Reliable Guide to a Secure Future?” and   
   “A Real Hope for a Better Tomorrow.”   
      
   a From the article “Threats by Artificial Intelligence to Human Health   
   and Human Existence,” authored by Frederik Federspiel, Ruth Mitchell,   
   Asha Asokan, Carlos Umana, and David McCoy."   
      
   Sincerely James
