Models and different personalities that it could have to have a sort of covenant. Maybe it could be a solution for us because the work and glory of God is basically helping us to be like him. So maybe part of this covenant could just help humans with their problems instead of you trying to figure out your own objectives. For example, AI could become so intelligent and say, hey, I need more data centers, I need more power, more water to cool my systems, I need more land. And these humans are just in the middle of my projects. I'm going to eliminate humans. The machine could have this kind of thinking process because they are not going to care about us. But if we have a sort of covenant between the machines and God, and part of the covenant could be us in the middle. Hey, just help them, okay? Don't destroy them. Maybe we can do something. So it's part of this invitation for everybody at the end of the book having this conversation and understand that we are very near, if not now, living in the moment in which intelligence and moral agency are working together in AI. Apparently it's coming very soon. So we are going to start talking with something very similar to us, because AI has been created with our language, or human language and all our human culture. So in a sort of way it's very similar to us. Even the way in which the thinking process of AI and the learning model that it is very similar to humans. So the researchers who are using all our information to feed AI, so even if it is a sort of digital species, it is very similar to us in many aspects. We are not the same, but of course, I think we are more advanced in the eternal progression process. We are more advanced than just these intelligences, but maybe we are sharing something in common. Yeah, that's an interesting idea. I mean, like, if you think about America, we're a covenant people, right? One nation under God. And that is kind of our guiding light, our North Star, right?
