Wow. Every time I hear a story like this, where AI acheives some amazing feat in a flash - whether it is in art, in rephrasing concepts in the UB, or in music, like with your friend and his samba - I am amazed. But also I get a little niggling worry in the back of my mind that our machines are going... |

Hi Jim, and thanks for this post. I agree with you. None of us operates in a vacuum; we always need others to accomplish things of value. I have always loved the following passages that help explain how certain people are drawn together: 7:1.6 Spirit-gravity pull and response thereto operate not onl... |

Hello Jim...I agree that that is a good article, and shows a step forward in modern thought. The article came acrosss my notice, too, just a few days ago. I like it so much I recommended it for our front page. So, you might see it there in the coming weeks, with some UB citations, like this one: 65:... |

Hi redryder, Matthew Block has compiled a comprehenive resource guide for the human sources that the revelators used. You can find his work with a simple google search.

Hi redryder... Here is a resource that describes the authors of The Urantia Book - there are more than 20 authors, so it's a fairly good representation of some of the spiritual beings we read about in the book. It gives you a good description of the beings and their functions in the universe. Other ... |

Hi redryder, and thanks for another good question. In my experience, love is more than feeling. It is a decison that I can make. The UB teaches us that love is the desire to do good to another. I believe that we can love God by doing good to the brother/sisterhood of mankind. God lives in each of th... |

I’m curious about any experience of other members with querying ChatGpt about TUB. Do you think it’s a usefull tool? Can you get it to generate an incorrect answer? Here's one reader's efforts using AI to explain the Foreword of The Urantia Book: "The Urantia Book Foreword: Conceptual Expansio... |
