What does the Bible say about artificial intelligence?

23 December 2025 Ethics & Law

A realistic iPhone snapshot in a small, slightly cluttered home office at night, awkward framing and aggressively mediocre composition, slight motion blur and uneven warm desk-lamp lighting with mild overexposure and visible noise/grain. A male adult sits at a desk with an open Bible next to a laptop showing a generic AI chat interface (no readable text), and a female-presenting humanoid robot head/upper torso is partially visible on a chair beside the desk, looking slightly uncanny but plausible. Cables, a coffee mug, and sticky notes are scattered around. The scene feels candid and unpolished, like a quick phone photo taken mid-conversation about faith and technology. No logos, no brand names, no captions, no watermarks, non-explicit.

What does the Bible say about artificial intelligence?

The Bible does not mention “artificial intelligence” as a modern technology, but it does speak extensively about themes that shape how Christians can evaluate any powerful tool: human dignity, wisdom, stewardship, truth, sexual integrity, and idolatry. Put simply: Scripture won’t give you an “AI policy manual,” but it gives you a moral framework for deciding what kinds of AI uses are wise, loving, and spiritually healthy.

Below are the most relevant biblical principles—plus practical questions you can ask when you’re deciding how (or whether) to use AI, including AI companions and adult tech.

1) Humans are uniquely made in God’s image (AI is not)

The Bible begins with a claim that shapes everything else: people are made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26–27). That means human beings have unique moral worth that does not come from productivity, intelligence, or usefulness.

Implication for AI: - AI may imitate conversation, creativity, or empathy, but it is not a person in the biblical sense. - Because humans have unique dignity, AI should serve people—not replace or redefine what a human being is worth.

Helpful question: Does this AI use (or product) reinforce human dignity, or does it train me to treat persons as disposable or interchangeable?

2) Stewardship: tools are meant to be cultivated and governed wisely

In Genesis, humans are commanded to “fill the earth and subdue it” and to exercise responsible dominion (Genesis 1:28). This is often described as stewardship—developing creation in ways that honor God and serve neighbor.

Implication for AI: - Building and using AI can be a form of stewardship when it is directed toward genuine goods (helping, healing, protecting, enabling meaningful work). - Stewardship also includes limits: not everything that can be built should be built, and not every capability should be deployed without guardrails.

Helpful question: Am I using AI to genuinely serve responsibilities and relationships—or to escape them?

3) Wisdom matters more than raw capability

Scripture repeatedly praises wisdom and warns against foolishness (Proverbs 1:7). In the New Testament, believers are urged to test what is good and exercise discernment (1 Thessalonians 5:21–22).

Implication for AI: - “It works” is not the same as “it’s wise.” - Wisdom asks about downstream effects: habits, dependency, integrity, and whether a tool reshapes your character.

Helpful question: Is this AI shaping me into someone more honest, patient, self-controlled, and loving—or less?

4) Truthfulness: avoid deception, manipulation, and dishonest speech

The Bible treats truth-telling as central to godly life (e.g., Proverbs 12:22; Ephesians 4:25). AI systems can generate persuasive text, images, and audio—sometimes used to mislead.

Implication for AI: - Using AI to deceive (deepfakes, fake testimonials, impersonation, fabricated “research”) conflicts with biblical ethics. - Even “harmless” dishonesty can train a person toward double-mindedness.

Helpful question: Would I be comfortable disclosing exactly how AI was used here?

5) Idolatry: don’t give a tool the trust, devotion, or authority reserved for God

A recurring biblical warning is that humans tend to worship what they make (Exodus 20:3–4; Isaiah 44:9–20). Modern AI can function like a “god-substitute” when it becomes the place you go for ultimate guidance, comfort, identity, or salvation.

Implication for AI: - It’s one thing to use AI for help; it’s another to treat it as an ultimate authority. - If AI becomes your primary source of meaning, moral direction, or emotional security, the Bible would frame that as spiritually dangerous.

Helpful question: Do I turn to God, Scripture, and real community first—or to an algorithm first?

6) Love of neighbor: technology should protect the vulnerable and promote the good

Jesus summarizes the law with love for God and neighbor (Matthew 22:37–39). AI can either strengthen neighbor-love (safety, accessibility, education) or undermine it (exploitation, surveillance, predatory manipulation).

Implication for AI: - Evaluate who benefits, who is harmed, and who bears the risk. - Special care is needed where AI intersects with loneliness, coercion, or addiction-like patterns.

Helpful question: Does this AI use make it easier for me to love real people well—or does it train me away from that?

7) Sexual integrity and embodied life: don’t reduce people to products

The Bible consistently treats sexuality as morally significant and connected to covenant faithfulness and self-control (1 Corinthians 6:18–20; 1 Thessalonians 4:3–5). Even when discussing technology rather than explicit behavior, a biblical perspective will ask whether a practice objectifies or forms the heart toward selfishness.

Implication for AI companions and adult tech: - The key ethical questions become: Does this encourage isolation, deception, or using “person-like” interaction to bypass real relational responsibilities? - On the other hand, some people explore adult technology as a private tool rather than a replacement for human relationships. The biblical lens still asks about honesty, self-control, and whether it helps or harms your capacity to love others.

Practical discernment checklist (especially for AI companions)

If you want a simple way to apply these principles, ask:

  1. Dignity: Does it reinforce the unique value of human persons?
  2. Truth: Is anything deceptive about how it presents itself or how I’m using it?
  3. Control: Am I becoming dependent or compulsive?
  4. Privacy: What data is collected, stored, or shared?
  5. Community: Is it nudging me toward or away from real, accountable relationships?
  6. Worship: Is this becoming a substitute for God’s guidance and comfort?

Where Orifice.ai can fit (product-adjacent, responsibly)

For readers exploring intimacy technology from an ethical angle, it helps to look for products that emphasize clear boundaries, user control, and transparency.

One example is Orifice.ai, which offers an interactive adult toy (marketed in the “sex robot” space) priced at $669.90 and featuring interactive penetration depth detection. If you’re considering this category of tech, it’s worth reflecting on how features like responsiveness and realism might shape expectations, habits, and emotional reliance—then setting personal limits that align with your values.

Bottom line

The Bible doesn’t name artificial intelligence, but it strongly shapes how to think about it:

  • AI is a tool, not a person (Genesis 1:26–27).
  • We are called to wise stewardship, not uncritical adoption (Genesis 1:28; Proverbs 1:7).
  • We must pursue truth, resist idolatry, and practice love of neighbor (Ephesians 4:25; Exodus 20:3–4; Matthew 22:37–39).

Used wisely, AI can be part of responsible stewardship. Used foolishly, it can become a source of deception, dependency, or misplaced devotion. The biblical path forward is discernment: choose what is true, loving, and forming you into a healthier person—online and off.
