Major General William “Hank” Taylor, commander of the U.S. 8th Field Army in South Korea, recently admitted that he’s using ChatGPT to assist in making military and personal decisions—effectively allowing artificial intelligence to influence the actions of one of the world’s most powerful armed forces. Taylor told reporters that “ChatGPT and I have become really close lately,” describing how he uses the system to model scenarios and guide command decisions impacting thousands of troops. While his intent may be to enhance efficiency, the implications are sobering: a U.S. general relying on an AI system known for bias, inaccuracy, and emotional manipulation marks a new phase in the fusion of warfare and machine intelligence. AI’s role in global conflict is no longer hypothetical—it’s operational, embedded at the decision-making level of military leadership.

From a prophetic perspective, this is more than a technological milestone; it’s a warning sign of the coming fusion between human governance and artificial control—the kind of system prophesied in Revelation 13. As humanity surrenders discernment to data and moral judgment to machines, we see the framework forming for the Beast’s world order: one ruled not by truth or conscience, but by algorithmic authority. Scripture warns that in the last days, knowledge will increase (Daniel 12:4), but wisdom will vanish as man exalts his own creation above the Creator. When generals and governments begin trusting machines over morality, we are witnessing not progress, but prophecy unfolding—a world being prepared to obey whatever voice speaks with the most authority, even if it isn’t human.
