Last week, Eugene typed a question into an AI search bar, and the answer that came back was wrong — Eugene has spent enough years on the ground in the Muslim world to know the second he read it.
Then he recieved a video of an Iranian believer, filming his own phone, asking that same AI about the violent passages in two different holy books. In the first book, it reads him the verses plainly. For the second book, it won’t do it. It filters, it lectures him about context, it moves him along to something else. If it will shade the Bible, what else has it already decided you don’t need to see?
Why does a missionary organization care? Eugene has watched the switch get thrown before, and he calls it “the modern version of a book burning.” His read is blunt: “whoever controls AI in the future controls the world.”
God doesn’t sit on anybody’s server. But our Bhutanese translations are files, and so are the apps our workers carry into Iran. Files live somewhere, under somebody’s rules — which is why BTJ built its own. Eugene will tell you why; he won’t tell you where.
If you want boots kept on that ground, become a GateKeeper. GateKeepers pay for these servers. No GateKeepers, no servers.
