Ghanaian gospel musician and preacher, Sonnie Badu, has sparked conversation on social media after expressing strong views about the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its potential to undermine spirituality and the relevance of the church.
In a Facebook post on Wednesday, Badu warned that AI could soon challenge the authority of God, urging Christians to be spiritually alert in the face of rapid technological advancement.
“It’s always the creator and inventor that wins—not the people,” Badu wrote. “In this case, what will medical doctors do?”
He went on to suggest that AI might soon lead society to question the need for God altogether. “Artificial Intelligence will contend with God, and very soon they’ll say God is no longer needed,” he said.
Calling for a spiritual awakening, the UK-based performer appealed to what he described as the “sons of God” to rise and take their place to “limit the intelligence of man.” He further warned that if action is not taken, even sacred spaces such as church temples could be overtaken by AI.
“This is just a son of Issachar telling you the time and season we are stepping into,” he concluded, referencing the biblical tribe known for their understanding of the times.
