Martin Mawyer is president of Christian Action Network.  Martin began his career as a journalist for the Religion Today news syndicate and the Washington news correspondent for Moody Monthly magazine.  This resulted in his position as the Editor-in-Chief of Jerry Falwell’s “Moral Majority Report.”  In 1990 he founded the Christian Action Network, a non-profit organization created to protect America’s religious and moral heritage through educational and political activism efforts.  He's the author of four books and has directed three documentary films.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing.  In fact, this is happening so quickly that in some respects, it's taking control.  For example, we're already seeing how it's controlling information provided to the public and therefore informing your thinking.  It's also having influence over education, medicine, business and even religion.

Review this edition of Crosstalk and hear Mawyer as he comments on the many facets of this phenomenon that, while it can be of great benefit to mankind, in the wrong hands could also be deadly.  For example, here's a brief list of points he discussed:

• Moltbook—A social media platform strictly for AI agents to discuss topics with one another.

• AI bio attacks.  How great is the risk?

• Will AI robots and devices have a universal “brain” whereby they can not only do the service they're designed for, but also harm you?

• AI generated pornography and the ensnarement of children.

• The rogue agents involved in the quest for AI.

• Data centers (gigafactories)--They're being built in many places but will they end up in space as well?

• Do some AI chatbox models affirm what people want to do, even if what they want to do is harmful to themselves or perhaps others?
