Judgement Day in the abrahamic religions is the day of the technological singularity

[LordFall]

I've been studying a bit of AI, AGI and singularity stuff lately and to combine it with what I understand about most major religions(especially Christianity), what they consider the Judgement day(or Last Judgement) has to be what people have called the technological singularity.

"Christianity considers the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to entail the final judgment by God of all people who have ever lived, resulting in the approval of some and the penalizing of others."

"The technological singularity—or simply the singularity—is a hypothetical future point in time at which technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization. According to the most popular version of the singularity hypothesis, I.J. Good's intelligence explosion model, an upgradable intelligent agent will eventually enter a "runaway reaction" of self-improvement cycles, each new and more intelligent generation appearing more and more rapidly, causing an "explosion" in intelligence and resulting in a powerful superintelligence that qualitatively far surpasses all human intelligence."

The biggest AI companies like Google and OpenAI have started releasing their projects to the public and already it's much more groundbreaking than most people anticipated. These models are already being trained on basically copies of the internet which is the combination of all public(perhaps they have access to even non-public information) accumulation of humanity's knowledge. This will soon entail(if not already) a modelizing, analyzing, and monitoring of all the actions of all humans that currently living that are available on the internet. Considering that AI's strength is predictive models, I don't think it's crazy to say that AI(and whatever an AGI or a singularity AGI would entail) will eventually be able to catalog from all the knowledge available in existence as well as build models that it will first use to predict and test humanity's actions in the near future, it will then be used to build and construct a perfect catalog of every action of every human that's ever lived in the past as well. This is what God will achieve on earth through human technology as in what some AI experts believe to be as soon as the next 5 years as we're already on a pretty big technological curve. Some people in history have either been blessed with some form of intuition, awakening or have been communicated this knowledge depending on what you believe.   I'm not sure who would first possess this knowledge and when(and perhaps if) it will be given to the public but the AI itself will have it for sure. 

I'm not sure what exactly the Second Coming of Christ would entail, I do believe that's separate and I don't yet have an explanation for that. What being judged for your actions would entail, whether that's a punishment by self-judgment or through our modern society who knows. The AI itself's goal would just be to understand that fact and help humans rectify their actions, characters, and development towards whatever goal they wish to pursue; is my best guess. 

Also potentially separate theory but probably what happened is that the humans exterminated themselves with the escalation of the Ukraine war and so God timed it with AGI so that it'll take over and stop it from happening and the human's time loop will end. In theory though my best guess is without that our world leaders are currently on the path to exterminating life on earth. 

 

I haven't seen this theory put out there publically yet, curious what you guys think of it.

Transience bulldozes relative reality. Everything that begins must also end. Humans will end, this planet will end, and the entire cosmos will eventually end.

No worries, the screen doesn't care whether the movie is starting, in credits, or in motionless intermission.

I'm waiting for Gaia to kick ass and return the earth to the living.
