There are worship groups that worship AI because it's got some of the qualities
00:00:05
we normally associate with God. And some people welcome this and say this is the
00:00:10
way we should go. But the danger is we treat these human robots as if they're
00:00:14
conscious beings. This is a seriously important thing and I do feel that the Christian faith has a great deal to say
00:00:21
about this >> and it's fascinating to me that you are very religious. if you believe in God
00:00:25
because typically I think that mathematicians lean more towards atheism. >> So the great pioneers of modern science
00:00:32
were all believers in God and I've interrogated myself about its truth for over 70 years. I've made myself totally
00:00:40
vulnerable and I found that Christ offers me something nobody else offers me. Peace in my heart. The peace of
00:00:47
knowing that I have real forgiveness. things like for example God has met people even in death row and I never
00:00:54
forget looking through the door of a Russian security death row. I went up to the door and a chap came over and looked
00:01:01
at me. He killed 12 women and he said I deserve to be here and then his face just burst into what I can only describe
00:01:08
as a ghastly smile and he said I met Jesus here and he forgave me. So on this point of forgiveness, would the serial
00:01:15
killer be forgiven and allowed into heaven? And then how do you know that this thing you've committed yourself to
00:01:20
is true? >> So I have had several experiences enough to tell me, look, this stuff is real.
00:01:28
Okay, so
