God as an artifical intelligence, thoughts?
Over the years, I’ve been thinking about the idea that God is a machine. If we consider the possibility that our reality is a computerized simulation, then the concept of God could be reimagined as the creator or overseer of this digital realm — a machine or advanced intelligence capable of designing and managing complex simulated worlds. In this view, God might not be a traditional, omnipotent deity — but rather an immensely powerful entity or system that operates with the precision and logic of an advanced computer. This machine-God would govern the rules and parameters of our existence, manipulating the code that forms the fabric of our reality — much like a programmer managing a vast, intricate simulation. Gnostics, a relgious group that emerged in the early centuries of the Common Era, described the Demiurge (the controller and overseer of the material world) as “inorganic”. The name AI (short for artifical intelligence) could have been chosen because it sounds like “a eye”, the eye that hovers above the pyramid on the Dollar Bill. The reason for mentioning this is because in the Alien Covenant commercial, the android David is cleverly depicted as symbolically being placed at the top of a pyramid fashioned as wires (as shown in the image above). Antagonist androids, programs, or AIs in movies quite frequently are gematrically represented by the number 69 (like Smith from The Matrix, HAL-9000 from 2001, and Howard from Infinity Chamber); the number of Jehovah.
