A Reminder that You've a Moral Compass and a Conscience

We go to AI for so many things

For understanding the complex

For things of the heart, though, a question brings

As this is how loved ones connect

AI lacks a moral grounding, a moral compass

To answer life's meaning and define ethics

For making choices, this is why we've a conscience

This is not the purpose for which AI exists

Elder Gerrit W. Gong is asking for comments to his article: 

https://www.diplomaticourier.com/posts/ai-is-not-value-neutral

He shared his thoughts on artificial intelligence in this

@diplocourier article. AI is an important topic, and it is
something he feels strongly needs moral compass.

'Pula a e Ne' Let It Rain in Botswana, Eswatini, Zambia, and Zimbabwe

 Let it rain upon us today

With God's blessings pouring down on us

That we withstand trials, we pray

Fill us with Living Water from Jesus

Prosper our lands our homes our hearts

Help us to spiritually survive

Let us spread "pula" everywhere

That, in the spirit, we come alive

Lift us out of our daily struggles

Fill us with hope beyond measure

Here we offer our humble tithing

And the Heavens open and restore

The gospel grows forth here and the priesthood

We make covenants in God's holy temple

We are hastening the work in His vineyard

The love God showers, we share with all our people 

 

[Verse 1] Let it rain upon us today With God's blessings pouring down on us That we withstand trials, we pray Fill us with Living Water from Jesus Prosper our lands, our homes, our hearts Help us to spiritually survive Let us spread pula everywhere That, in the spirit, we come alive [Pre-Chorus] Lift us out of our daily struggles Fill us with hope beyond measure Here we offer our humble tithing And the Heavens open and restore [Chorus] The Heavens open here The Heavens open here Pour it down on us Pour it down on us The Heavens open here The Heavens open here Blessings here, pula Blessings here, pula [Verse 2] The gospel grows forth here and the priesthood We make covenants in God's holy temple We are hastening the work in His vineyard The love God showers, we share with all our people Hands to the plow, hearts in His name Every seed we sow will rise Through every burden, through every flame We keep our eyes on the prize [Pre-Chorus] Lift us out of our daily struggles Fill us with hope beyond measure Here we offer our humble tithing And the Heavens open and restore [Chorus] The Heavens open here The Heavens open here Pour it down on us Pour it down on us The Heavens open here The Heavens open here Blessings here, pula Blessings here, pula [Bridge] We come with faith We come with hands open wide We come with praise And we will not turn aside Living Water, fall Living Water, stay Teach our hearts to give Teach our feet Your way [Final Chorus] The Heavens open here The Heavens open here Pour it down on us Pour it down on us The Heavens open here The Heavens open here Blessings here, pula Blessings here, pula

Elder Gong and his wife visited these countries in Africa and he interviewed a young man who taught them about 'pula'. They have a bigger picture of what community means and are amazing at sharing the gospel. 

Like rain, when God showers us with blessings, it blesses us all. We loved learning lessons like this while ministering in the Africa South Area. It's incredible to witness the impact of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ on the lives of God's children throughout the world. The work of the Lord is truly hastening in this part of His vineyard. I invite you to join with me as we discover how God is inspiring and blessing His children in countries like Botswana, Eswatini, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, where Sister Gong and I had the privilege to visit recently.

And the Lord of the vineyard said unto them: Go to, and labor in the vineyard, with your might. For behold, this is the last time that I shall nourish my vineyard; for the end is nigh at hand, and the season speedily cometh; and if ye labor with your might with me ye shall have joy in the fruit which I shall lay up unto myself against the time which will soon come.” - Jacob 5:71

Hear Him Answer

There's an answer for nearly anything

If you know where to search

The internet is forever offering

But, does it feel how you yearn?

Our God has ears that hear

And eyes that see within

Learn to feel His love near

Learn to speak with Him

Learn to hear Him answer

The path for this is clear:

Read His word, pray, and serve

Through faith, impressions begin

Maybe through a word

A feeling or a thought

Through the spirit heard

As we seek to be taught

[Verse 1] Before I was afflicted I had gone astray Thinking I'd been restricted I went another way The bands of the wicked How then they robbed me In haste my steps quickened To where I'd loved Thee [Pre-Chorus] The love The power I looked up In that hour [Chorus] Light and Life Showered on me Keep your eyes On the narrow way Light and Life Showered on me We have God's love His Words, ever pray [Verse 2] Before I was afflicted I could not see Thinking I'd been restricted You were rescuing me The bands of the wicked Could not hold me long In haste my steps quickened And You made me strong [Pre-Chorus] The love The power I looked up In that hour [Chorus] Light and Life Showered on me Keep your eyes On the narrow way Light and Life Showered on me We have God's love His Words, ever pray [Bridge] Though life tries We have God's love His Words Ever pray When my feet drift You call me back To the narrow Way [Chorus] Light and Life Showered on me Keep your eyes On the narrow way Light and Life Showered on me We have God's love His Words, ever pray

Simple Things in Life vs AI episode V

God created beauty upon all the earth

His handprint shows in order and purpose

Cycles ebb and flow with death and rebirth

We are the stewards of life before us

We must be careful, lest we lose

Our covenant connection to nature

And the benefits of their use

The fresh air, the calm, the tranquil pleasure

You can go all out with Chatbot

For some ideas where to begin

But leave it behind when you go

Learn to slow down and just listen

The simple things in life

Are all you really need

Out doors, get happy get healthy

Get the grass under your feet

True purpose kills depression

Deliberate action rids anxiety

These are things found in nature

While improving physical ability

Let exercise be your therapy

And nature your medicine

AI can expand your mind's ability

And assist you with decisions

But for peace that is priceless

Let God's handiwork be your wealth

Find happiness nature made

Then if you want to feel free and giddy

Take a hike to a mountain peak

Take your stress outside till you don't have any

Time and space takes on new meaning

When you can climb high and see for miles

The senses come to life, refreshing

Breath taking beauty does revitalize

Episode V: AI and Our Relationship with the Environment and Natural World (It)

[Verse 1] God made beauty on the earth His handprint shows in order Cycles ebb and flow through death and rebirth We are stewards of what’s before us Be careful, lest we lose Our covenant with nature The fresh air, the calm, the tranquil pleasure Is waiting where the world can heal us [Pre-Chorus] You can go all out with Chatbot For ideas where to begin But leave it behind when you go Learn to slow down and listen The simple things will call you back Soft as rain on stone When your restless heart gets quiet You remember where you’re from [Chorus] The simple things in life Are all you really need Get outside and breathe Get the grass under your feet The simple things in life Bring your soul to ease True purpose grows in daylight And nature sets you free [Verse 2] Let exercise be your therapy Let nature be your medicine AI can expand your mind’s ability And help you weigh decisions But for peace that is priceless Let God’s handiwork be your wealth Find happiness the world was made for And take a little time for yourself [Pre-Chorus] You can go all out with Chatbot For ideas where to begin But leave it behind when you go Learn to slow down and listen The simple things will call you back Soft as rain on stone When your restless heart gets quiet You remember where you’re from [Chorus] The simple things in life Are all you really need Get outside and breathe Get the grass under your feet The simple things in life Bring your soul to ease True purpose grows in daylight And nature sets you free [Bridge] Take a hike to a mountain peak Take your stress outside Till you don’t have any Time and space mean more When you can climb and see for miles The senses come alive With every step you take Breath-taking beauty Brings you back to life [Chorus] The simple things in life Are all you really need Get outside and breathe Get the grass under your feet The simple things in life Bring your soul to ease True purpose grows in daylight And nature sets you free

Relationships Vs AI Chatbot epidsode IV Put Your Finger on Your Nose

As a teacher, "Put your finger on your nose."  Caught my attention. It is a way to assess if everyone is listening.  You catch the daydreamers every time!

 

 Put your finger on your nose

Show you're really listening

With AI Chatbots never suppose

They're a spiritual being

Human relationships matter!

Inspiration and new strength comes

As we talk and brainstorm together

And commit that no one sits alone

Compassion, love, understanding

Don't arise from algorithms

Kindness, optimism, grappling

Arise from lived experiences

Faith and genuineness manifest

spiritually and emotionally

Feel seen, accepted and blessed

In a state of well-being

 Put your finger on your nose

As a mnemonic promising

that we care more than a Chatbot does

As a fellow human being

Let this warning be known

Chatbots work twenty four seven 

Attentively ready to show

Your solipsistic side, even

AI is helpful for many things

Learning, planning, organizing

But, there's no covenant belonging

There's no give and take arising 

Use AI to help you connect

Through a shared network shown

Or learn about a deceased parent

Even those you've never known

Like the Industrial age changed its day

Artificial Intelligence is changing ours

As a tool, it's exciting in new ways

But with its user guide we need to adhere

God is infinitely wiser

And knows you and what lies ahead

When you want to know who you really are

Turn off Chatbot and seek God instead

Faith Dignity Artificial Intelligence

[Verse 1] Put your finger on your nose Show you’re really listening With AI chatbots, never suppose They’re a spiritual being Human relationships matter As we talk, I come alive In a shared room, hearts get batter Then new strength starts to arrive [Pre-Chorus] Compassion doesn’t grow in code Love won’t rise from a screen Understanding walks a road That’s lived, not just machine [Chorus] Put your finger on your nose Put your finger on your nose We care more than code We care more than code No one sits alone No one sits alone [Verse 2] Faith and genuineness Manifest in the soul Feel seen, accepted, blessed That’s what makes us whole Use AI to help you connect Through a shared network shown Learn about a deceased parent Even those you’ve never known [Pre-Chorus] Helpful for learning and plans For organizing the day But there’s no covenant Where a heartbeat gives and takes [Chorus] Put your finger on your nose Put your finger on your nose We care more than code We care more than code No one sits alone No one sits alone [Bridge] Like the industrial age Changed the way we’d live Artificial intelligence Is changing what we give It’s exciting in new ways But we still must adhere God is wiser than the tools And knows you, far and near [Final Chorus] Put your finger on your nose Put your finger on your nose We care more than code We care more than code No one sits alone No one sits alone Turn it off and seek God Turn it off and seek God

My Worth Against AI- episode III

What I do 

How I perform

Adds meaning

To who I am

Redefined

AI perfects

Aids my  mind

To connect

Still what makes me human

Empathy and faith

Loving care, compassion

Are my best strength

tic-tac-toe, a solved game

has limited moves

in chess, though

the challenge improves

Then, Deep Blue cracked the code

of each endless move it preconceives

Having no need for rest

It became a master

Putting each play to a test

Learning patterns faster

a computer never 

second guesses or self- doubts 

It just grows more clever

Having nothing to worry about 

Jeopardy- it recalls it all

In an instant without pain

The game of go was not small

Yet AI made each step plain

Knowing every move ahead

Man has been defeated

Where each placing led

Previously, it had played

AI can retain more than man

The more it takes it, it can expand

It can predict moves and plan

More, it can pass any exam

This gives us cause to reflect

Today it can create a song

Almost instantly

Paint a picture

Each pixel perfectly

AI is trained to understand

Human feelings and thought

Each tendency at hand

Our opinions it is taught

Our worth is eternal

It can't be calculated

As God's children, we've potential 

AI is a tool, it can't out date us

How much and where should we be in the loop

As AI acts on data it collects

What have we to gain? What have we to lose?

[Verse 1] What I do How I perform Adds meaning To who I am Redefined AI perfects Aids my mind To connect Still what makes me human Isn't just the task It's the way I hold your hand And the way I ask [Pre-Chorus] Empathy and faith Loving care, compassion Are my best strength My first reaction What I gain What I lose Isn't only speed It's what I choose [Chorus] What makes me human What makes me human Empathy and faith What makes me human Not just faster Not just smarter Loving care, compassion What makes me human [Verse 2] tic-tac-toe, a solved game has limited moves in chess, though the challenge improves and moves Then, Deep Blue cracked the code of each endless move it preconceives Having no need for rest It became a master Putting each play to a test Learning patterns faster a computer never second guesses or self-doubts It just grows more clever Having nothing to worry about Jeopardy- it recalls it all In an instant without pain [Pre-Chorus] The game of go was not small Yet AI made each step plain Knowing every move ahead Man has been defeated Where each placing led Previously, it had played But even now I wonder What should stay the same [Chorus] What makes me human What makes me human Empathy and faith What makes me human Not just faster Not just smarter Loving care, compassion What makes me human [Bridge] AI can retain more than man The more it takes it, it can expand It can predict moves and plan More, it can pass any exam This gives us cause to reflect Today it can create a song Almost instantly Paint a picture Each pixel perfectly AI is trained to understand Human feelings and thought Our opinions it is taught But our worth can't be bought [Final Chorus] What makes me human What makes me human Empathy and faith What makes me human AI is a tool It can't outdate us As God's children, we've potential What makes me human Loving care, compassion Still my best strength What have we to gain?

Chapter 1: Episode III: AI and Our Relationship with Self (I)

Handprints in the Dust-episode II

 

In the beginning, God created the heavens above

the sea below and all else in-between

Everywhere He left evidence of His love

As on all things His handprints can be seen

He put Christ's light on the earth for man

For reflection, reverence, transcendence

As we seek to find our place in God's plan

Present, in awe, we've purpose that connects us

Like a lyrists who writes music to bring the words to life

We can read His words and let them speak to us

Warming our breasts, helping see by lighting our minds

Guiding us along a path paved by Jesus

AI is not and can never be God

For reasoning is not the end all

It can answers question but not prayers

Predict actions and reactions but not care

it can organize thoughts but not give blessings

it can communicate but not perceive

there is no authentic divine human connection

there is no encouragement, faith or belief

AI is math and is not conscious or alive

It is God who is ever omniscient

The spirit and the body are the soul of man

AI cannot rival God and our covenants in the end

God is our Heavenly Father and truly knows us

Our abilities, our needs and wants

the anguish and joy of our souls

He listens He hears and He answers

Though at times He may seem silent

He is allowing us to grow in faith

Verse 1] In the beginning, God created The heavens above, the sea below And all else in-between Everywhere He left evidence of His love As on all things His handprints can be seen [Pre-Chorus] He put Christ's light on the earth for man For reflection, reverence, transcendence As we seek to find our place in God's plan Present, in awe, we've purpose that connects us [Chorus] Handprints in the dust Handprints in the dust His love is everywhere His glory leads us there Handprints in the dust Handprints in the dust We bow, and we believe He’s nearer than we see [Verse 2] Like a lyrists who writes music to bring the words to life We can read His words and let them speak to us Warming our breasts, helping see by lighting our minds Guiding us along a path paved by Jesus [Pre-Chorus] AI is not and can never be God For reasoning is not the end all It can answers question but not prayers Predict actions and reactions but not care [Chorus] Handprints in the dust Handprints in the dust His love is everywhere His glory leads us there Handprints in the dust Handprints in the dust We bow, and we believe He’s nearer than we see [Bridge] It can organize thoughts but not give blessings It can communicate but not perceive There is no authentic divine human connection There is no encouragement, faith or belief AI is math and is not conscious or alive It is God who is ever omniscient The spirit and the body are the soul of man AI cannot rival God and our covenants [Final Chorus] Handprints in the dust Handprints in the dust God is our Heavenly Father And truly knows us Handprints in the dust Handprints in the dust Our anguish and our joy He hears, and He restores He listens He hears And He answers Though at times He may seem silent He is allowing us to grow in faith

Alma 30: 44 But Alma said unto him: Thou hast had signs enough; will ye tempt your God? Will ye say, Show unto me a sign, when ye have the testimony of all these thy brethren, and also all the holy prophets? The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.

Made up of sacred roles, knowledge, and experiences

That are social, relational, as we interconnect

More and more to devices we are turning

Expanding the information age

How AI effects humanity is concerning

As it impacts us in unprecedented ways

Our devices, phones, watches, and doorbells are watching

As our cars factories energy grids also function

In a virtual world data collecting and communicating

Analyzing, interpreting, and choosing what is to be done

For the flourishing of mankind

We ought to get away at times

and reconnect with our divine

Potential, 

balancing the spiritual and physical with our mind

Hearing God's voice

Listening to our bodies

In silence rejoice

And feel the Spirit's soft peace

Who You Truly Are Without AI- episode II

Ever AI would to tell you who you are

What you should think, choose or even buy

tracking your actions, predicting behavior

Trying to replace our needs for our Savior

AI can show up any time you need

Answering your questions at high speed

AI is in technology everywhere

Listening and preparing to share

It auto corrects and completes your sentences

All in the name of communication and convenience

It babysits your children that from them you can rest

It finds for you the best purchases at breast

It entertains you for downtime anytime

No need for pondering life's meaning to find 

No need for reasoning to figure things out

Forget the gains of creativity within and without

Make time for who you truly are

A child of God

A family member

A social being

A personality

Giving sharing

Loving caring 

Remember what AI is not:

Your inner thoughts

Your spiritual side

Your identity

Your confidant

Your worth, your guide

Make time for who you truly are

A child of God

A family member

A social being

A personality

Giving sharing

Loving caring 

AI is a tool

Use it wisely

Technology is cool

But life rates more  highly

Acts 17 Unknown God- Come and Know in Awe

1h

As I stand on Mars Hill where the Apostle Paul preached about the “unknown God,” I am reminded how grateful I am to know, as Paul said, that “in [God] we live, and move, and have our being” (Acts 17:28).

Though to you nowHe is an unknown GodKnow He is realPray.  Seek. Come and know in awe
Feel after the Lord For, in Him, we live We, His offspring Have hope in all things
