More and More Christians Say AI Is Demonic

futurism.com Unknown 2026-01-22 18:27:14

Like many conservatives, evangelicals have broadly begun to embrace artificial intelligence — but at the same time, a growing subset of the Christian world is claiming that the technology is quite literally demonic. In a recent Medium blog post — yes, people still post on that site — self-proclaimed "biblical Christian author" and regular AI user Zack Duncan suggested that an image generator's cartoonish outputs regarding Satan may be the result of some demonic influence.

Edward Burtynsky's monumental chronicle of the human impact on the planet

If there was one absence in Burtynsky’s account of our time, however, it was the single greatest result of all that mining, burning, and consuming: the transformation of the atmosphere. Nothing else comes close in scale to the chemical disruption of the air—the flood of CO 2 now rapidly overheating the Earth and producing a series of changes so titanic they dwarf even the forces that these photos depict.

The Webb Telescope captures a mesmerizing view of the Cat's Paw nebula

Feast your eyes on the most mesmerizing feline foot known to humankind. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) captured this image of the Cat's Paw nebula. The European Space Agency (ESA) shared the picture to honor the telescope's three years of service. The Cat's Paw nebula is part of the Scorpio constellation.

From Point Clouds to Photorealism: How PRoGS Advances the State of Neural Rendering

What if a real-time automated decision-making process needs a computer vision system to produce photorealistic visuals in a mere fraction of a second? In many cases, this requires too much computational power — if it’s even possible at all. When computer vision uses 3D Gaussian splatting (3DGS), it provides a photorealistic image, but the process takes far too long.

Anamorphosis refers to a category of images that are intentionally distorted, making them unrecognizable when viewed directly. Their true form only reveals itself when seen from a specific viewpoint, which can be through some catadioptric device like a mirror or a lens. While the construction of these mathematical devices can be traced back to as early as the 17th century, they are only interpretable when viewed from a specific vantage point and tend to lose meaning when seen normally.
