More About My New Novel The Prodigal Band Aftermath: The Plot to Tale Over the World Using Artificial Intelligence Apps and Operating Systems (Part Two)

In the previous post about two weeks ago, a main novel character, Morwenna, who has returned to Earth as a human—the spirit being set by angels to infiltrate the evil tech company called Origin as an administrative assistant with knowledge of several foreign languages—has stated at the end of the Part One snippet that she was there to discover what Origin and its head, named Dumlat, were up to, using artificial intelligence and a new operating system that would pretty much end the privacy and freedom of humanity…for his desire to control the world and institute a ‘mark of the beast’-type system for the sake of his evil ‘god,’ Corion (my Satan-like fictional character). Further, while Morwenna has become human again, she is also able to—as the angels will it on God’s orders—revert back to an invisible spirit being such that Dumlat and his company and stock-holding cohorts would not know she was listening and watching what they do or say at a special meeting Dumlat creates to lay out his ‘plan’ to take over the world, needing approval by his cohorts to carry out his plan. The fictional ‘plan’ he is trying to enforce is based on the World Economic Forum’s ‘own nothing and be happy’ scenario: by using various artificial intelligence apps and systems, the person desiring to ‘be happy’ can create his or her own little artificial world with AI ‘friends’ and ‘lovers’ or whatever to bring about artificial ‘happiness,’ all the while being enslaved in a fake world surveilled by ‘the beast system.’ For his or her ‘convenience.’

In the snippet below (copyright © 2025 Deborah Lagarde), Dumlat lays out exactly that ‘convenience’ ‘compliance’ that he believes all if not most humans will take part in for their ‘happiness.’ Their enslavement and emptiness is more like it! The snippet ends Chapter Two of The Prodigal Band Aftermath:

November, 2025: Dumlat meets with his major corporate shareholders and department heads—The Plan

After several bouts of arguing over what would comprise the ultimate plan that Origin would impose on humanity for their ‘happiness,’ Dumlat took over the meeting with this pronouncement.

“My fellows, this is going to be the Plan, out Plan for humanity.”

Quiet.

“Our new Origin Operating System will definitely replace all, and I mean all, previous computer and digital operating systems. Since we control the updating and upgrading these old systems, we will simply announce that these old systems will not only no longer be updated or upgraded, but will be made null and void by the end of this year. In other words, we will use our artificial intelligence bots to crash these old operating systems such that every computer and digital device will have to use our Origin operating system. And this is just the first step.

“After the older devices download our systems, and our systems are set-up in new devices that contain our Origin systems through purchase, users will be forced to only download the applications, or apps, we create. And all, and I mean all, of our applications, from writing to audio to video to music to…well, everything…will utilize artificial intelligence, AI, first and foremost, and there will be no way around this. AI will become supreme, for only AI can bring about the happiness humanity will seek. AI will create their happy world. AI friends. AI surroundings. AI creations for their happiness. What they once considered reality will disappear. The natural world will become the AI world that they create. As they create their world, they will become like gods. They will forget about the God that created all-natural creation!”

A shareholder, not quite sure this ‘plan’ of Dumlat would work out as Dumlat claimed it would, spoke up. “So, Dumlat, this ‘reality’ that users create will all be fake?”

Dumlat smiled then gave a haughty laugh. “Of course! As I constantly remind everyone here, what is being created is artificial! Not real, but artificial!”

“But—”

“No ‘buts’! Artificial, but will make the creator happy! And wouldn’t happiness bring about compliance? And isn’t that our goal? Our control over a compliant humanity?”

Several head nods, with the questioning shareholder cocking his head, wondering about the stated outcome.

However, not one person at this truly secret meeting ‘wondered’ if the ‘secret’ of this meeting would ever see the light of day. For neither Dumlat or anyone else knew or sensed that a person they would not notice had attended the meeting. In secret, of course!

Yet there was ‘someone’ who witnessed every single word or action that played a role at this meeting. It was Morwenna, in secret, in her previous ‘spirit being’ state, sent by the Tooters, to witness the truth of this meeting so she could relay to myself, Joe “Agent R” Phillips, Agent P, and Swinton, the ‘Plan’ to be used to implement Corion’s demonic agenda put forth by his ‘elite’ minions.

What Bible followers might call ‘the Beast system.’

Revelation Chapter 13 claims one will not be able to ‘buy or sell’ without ‘the mark of the Beast.’

Dumlat’s demonic ‘Plan’ is simply this: without the Origin ‘operating system’ on any digital device—computer, cell phone, whatever—the person will not be able to ‘buy or sell.’ Because the Origin operating system will control the bank accounts, which governments around the world will simply have converted to digital bank accounts. Cash or check will no longer be relevant within this system; it would have to be used ‘underground.’

I had a funny feeling ‘going underground’ was going to become popular among independently-minded, freedom-loving—and God-loving—people!

Coming soon, I hope, will be Part Three, which will be a snippet from Chapter Three of The Prodigal Band Aftermath, which will explain Dumlat’s family and personal history and his development of images and videos using CGI computer-generated images and more, and why he developed an evil mindset. Part Three, that is, Chapter Three, will likely be completed in early 2026. I will be quite busy with other events the rest of 2025, including Christmas.

More About My New Novel The Prodigal Band Aftermath: The Plot to Take Over the World Using Artificial Intelligence Apps and Operating Systems (Part One)

It has been over two months since my last post! Sorry about that, but I have been busy—camping/fishing trip, visiting a chiropractor in El Paso because I developed lower back and thigh pain while on the trip and even before it, birthdays, chores, and more. And also, finding the inspiration for the new novel overall plot with spiritual overtones as to how digital IDs and artificial intelligence (AI) is affecting life on Earth today….and all the posts online claiming we may be entering ‘the end times’….and fake this and fake that.

I had stated that it crossed my mind that the powers-that-be might be trying to configure a fake ‘rapture’ where fake bodies are seen heading into the clouds ‘to meet the Lord in the air’ (1Thessalonians 4:15-16) while believers on Christ are ‘left behind’ to wonder why they weren’t ‘caught up in the clouds.’ That way, Christians who believed in a ‘pre-trib rapture,’ not being caught up, would renounce their faith in Christ—which is exactly what the forces of evil want!

However, the notion of fake rapture is not going to be featured in the new novel. But the now infamous World Economic Forum saying telling us ‘useless eaters’ that “You will own nothing and be happy” does play into the plot.

In the novel, an evil corporation which (not too ironically considering the mess that Microsoft’s Windows 11 has become thanks to its ‘recall’ AI app which lets Microsoft control pretty much the entire computer device, and Apple’s Mac operating system isn’t much better…and Linux? Hmmmmm…..)…well this evil corporation called Origin, having designed a new operating system as the others have collapsed (remember, this is fiction…I’m not browbeating Microsoft or Apple or Linux or any other system for real…I still use Windows 10, okay?)…the collapse being fictional…has actually in fiction bought out the other companies such that Origin’s operating system was the only viable one around. The time frame in the following post is late 2025.

The snippet below (copyright © 2025 Deborah Lagarde) features Morwenna, former (and future as well) spirit being who communicates with the Tooters angels to message those she is told to message, such as the members of the prodigal band and other ‘missionaries of God.’ Morwenna, now fully human again (ordained by God), becomes employed by Origin since, having lived over 800 years as various humans in various nations, she is fluent in several other languages, thus Origin needs her as a translator and interpreter. Another woman, Rita, is her boss. Both are Christians. Then there is Dumlat, head of Origin and creator of various gaming and other applications since childhood years, and is from a very powerful ‘elite’ family. In the snippet below, Dumlat appears to consider Morwenna a key and valuable employee, not realizing Morwenna’s employment ‘mission’ was to infiltrate the company to find out what they were up to. Below is Part One of the snippet that deals with ‘the Plan’ Dumlat and his evil ‘elite’ cohorts have devised to enslave humanity into what I might call their ‘beast system.’

Origin Company, near Richmont, October, 2025

“Your resume’ speaks perfect for the job you will be assigned to here at Origin, Morwenna.”

Rita, assistant supervisor for Origin’s Human Resources Department, smiled from her desk as she told Morwenna her job as language interpreter within the same Human Resources Department was assured.

“Thank you. My knowledge of twelve foreign languages comes from my having lived all over the world my entire life.”

True, for while her time as a human instead of a ‘spirit being’ lasted over 800 years, Morwenna lived in France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Greece, Turkey (the Ottoman Empire days), Russia (during the time of Catherine the Great), China, India, and Arabia, besides Britain and America.

As for her resume’, it was ‘drawn up’ by the Tooters, who also placed her within walking distance of Origin hours before the job interview. Origin was ten miles north of Richmont, California, USA.

Rita continued. “And I love the fact that both your Digital Technology and your Foreign Language degrees are from Oxford University. I spent a summer there, taking two courses in foreign language—Arabic and Hebrew.”

“Hebrew, eh?” Morwenna burst out loud. “I really wanted to learn that ancient language.”

Eyes open wide. “Bible studies?” Rita followed with her own burst.

“True, which was a reason I also learned Greek.”

For the Old Testament was originally in Hebrew while the New Testament was originally in Greek.

Rita screwed her eyes on Morwenna. “Are you Christian?”

“Yes.”

Smile. “Well, so am I, Morwenna, and likely we may be the only Origin employees who are Christian. Most here are secular. The owner, Dumlat, has no religion, either.”

Morwenna cocked her head. “Will I meet Mr. Dumlat?”

Smile. “Yes, shortly, as he will introduce himself to all new employees later this afternoon in the conference chamber down the hall from here. You are one of twenty new employees, and you need to learn more about Origin.”

“Yes.”

Rita stood up behind her desk. “We here at Origin are setting ourselves up to become THE origin of audio and visual artificial intelligence software and applications in a world where more and more humans are becoming dependent on technological artificial intelligence communication and computer-generated images and graphics. Dumlat has been producing computer-generated images and videos since the age of ten, and he and I have worked together on building this company since our teen years, beginning when we both attended Stanford University and then Cal Tech.”

Morwenna stood up. “Then you are both about the same age.”

“Dumlat is thirty and I am twenty-nine.”

“Are you both from this area?”

Laugh. “I am from Richmont, but he is from Texas—where, by the way, Origin plans to relocate to sometime next year. Less bureaucratic mumbo-jumbo in Texas.

It would be when Origin moved to Austin, the state capital, that Morwenna would resign from the company.

Later, as Dumlat spoke of Origin to the New Employees

“You all here have joined us here at Origin to partake in a mission I am sure you have all wanted to participate in—the mission being to see all of humanity in a state of happiness and ultimate satisfaction. For we are here to help humanity live fulfilled, happy lives as we provide the tools all humans can use to bring about their happiness as they participate in creating their happy and satisfied living world. No matter what state of being a person lives in at the time, we must provide the tools for all persons to create for themselves their happy world. We will provide for each individual person the tools they will need for a happy and satisfied existence, tools that being part of a social group of fellow humans cannot provide. For the person, not the social group, will choose the happiness the person seeks.

“And what are these tools? Applications that the person chooses to create the world the person chooses—images that create the reality the person seeks, amplified by sounds the chosen applications create to enhance the images. Further, social groups of individuals working together can accomplish the same ideal for their group, for their happiness.”

And on and on, until Dumlat ended his presentation thusly—

“Therefore, fellow new employees here at Origin, you are partaking in making all human individuals and social groups live in the world they choose to create for themselves using Origin applications you will help design and build—for a happier world, for a happier humanity.”

Then the thirty-year-old man dressed in a cotton-with-leather suit and leather shoes, fair-skinned with straight-dark-brown hair to the back of his neck along with facial mustache, standing at about six feet tall, greeted each new employee.

He smiled as he approached Morwenna, and then said to her, “Welcome, Morwenna—”

“You know my name?”

“Indeed. You will be a very key employee, knowing several languages. After all, my dear, our apps will be applied world-wide, and, of course, in several different languages. You, my dear, are totally essential in our mission.”

Morwenna, wanting to appear to be enraptured in Dumlat’s so-called mission, bowed her head, then said, “And I will help bring about the mission.” Father God’s mission, that is, to counter your devilish mission, that is!

Coming soon, I hope, will be Part Two, which is pretty much the rest of Chapter Two of The Prodigal Band Aftermath, where Dumlat holds a secret meeting with his cohorts and key shareholders to work out ‘the Plan.’

An Introductory Look into My Up-Coming Novel, the Prodigal Band Aftermath

Beginning tomorrow, Sunday, September 7, 2025, I will be “away from computer” several days, so I wanted to post an introductory look into my up- and-coming novel based on both The Prodigal Band Trilogy and The Murder Rule. Broadly, the entire novel will feature the outcomes of the members of the prodigal band Sound Unltd as to their given missions-of-God, and the “aftermath” of those mission outcomes. Various so-called “end times” “prophetic” scenarios play somewhat into the novel, but I cannot say for sure what “the great tribulation” in the Book of Revelation will look like or when it will happen–only God knows for sure. I do not….but, I can speculate…. And since so many big tech oligarchs seem to be in play these days with their artificial intelligence (AI) programs, it seems to me that these folks and their programs (including that abomination called ‘transhumanism’…like the Days of Noah as Christ mentioned in various Gospels, when fallen angels mated with the daughters of men to produce ‘giants’ (aka nephalim)….not exactly human, right?)….these folks and their programs will likely play out in the actual “end-times.”

In the following snippet that opens Chapter One is included the novel’s narrator, pop culture pundit Lloyd Denholm (who narrated The Prodigal Band) and the prodigal band’s manager, Joe Phillips, under a fake name since he faked his own death in Part Three of The Murder Rule. The time-frame is the present: September, 2025. The snippet is below, and the event harkens back to the opening of The Prodigal Band, a jet explosion that the prodigal band survived–only this time, the outcome of a similar explosion was different. Below is the snippet (© 2025 Deborah Lagarde):

Richmont, California, September, 2025

I, Lloyd Denholm, was about to turn on the television for the nightly news as I finished preparing my supper of fried fish and crisps, when my phone rang—I still had a land-line phone.

“Hello,” I answered.

“It’s me, Joe,” the supposedly ‘dead’ Joe Phillips responded.

“Where are you, Mr. R?” For Joe had adopted the spy-agent moniker Agent R.

“At the usual place.” Meaning, his flat he shared with his former personal assistant, Swinton, within London.

“So, Joe, what’s happening?”

“You’ll find out!” he laughed with a shout of mystery. “I am sure the news will have a very interesting story which might remind you of an event back in July, 2001. You know what I’m saying!”

My mind reeled. Oh God, no!

“Yes, I will watch the news, and it should be about ready now.”

Joe rang off.

I nervously turned on the news.

“…over the Irish Sea on the way to Belfast where they would headline a Christian charity concert festival to aid Child Finders in locating missing children. Their Cessna was approximately twenty kilometers from the Ulster coastline when the plane suddenly exploded with debris crashing into the waters. Along with the pilots, none of Sound Unltd survived…”

Devastation clawed at me. I knew this would eventually happen! Then I heard the news desk co-anchor chime in. “This reminds me of what happened to their 757 jet when it landed at a London airport in 2001 and a bomb went off.”

Her desk mate replied, “Only this time, they would not survive the explosion.”

And on and on, as I rang Joe back up.

“So, Joe, did you suspect this would happen?”

“Yes, and the suspicion is due to their funding the Child Finder Charity at a large venue in Belfast to end all the child trafficking in Ulster by the Hellyons and Novordo Club. You know who is running that show!”

“You know, Joe, Sound Unltd’s been raising money to end child trafficking and other evil designs since they turned to Christ. For years, they’ve exposed the darkness that rules this world—”

“Ephesians 6:12, right?”

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

“Exactly. So, why now? Why, you know, ‘murder rule’ them now?”

Joe immediately answered, “Because, Lloyd, it was time to do so.”

I am still working on Chapter Two of this new novel. Chapter One is completed.

Finally, I Am Starting My New (and Maybe Last) Novel! Been Busy This Last Few Weeks…

I finally started creating my new–and final–novel which (so far) will be called The Prodigal Band Aftermath. It will feature the ending scenario for the prodigal band Sound Unltd which harkens back to when their jet was “bombed” in 2001 but failed to do any serious damage to the band, pilots or jet. Thus begins the novel, which, as with The Prodigal Band, is narrated by pop culture pundit Lloyd Denholm. The finality of The Murder Rule also plays into this final novel (also narrated by Lloyd Denholm).

Thus, the “prodigal band” reaches its end, and Denholm suspects why it reaches its end, which he explains, backed by what manager Joe Phillips–who faked his own death in Part Three of The Murder Rule and assumes a new identity as a “commoner person” who still has connections to the “elites” who had thought they controlled the “Super Six” for many years, and know why the act with their jet happened–in 2024, the same year The Murder Rule ended.

To end this post, I will state that a key character from the Prodigal Band Trilogy, the spirit being Morwenna, reappears in this novel–her being sent back to the world from heaven by those Tooters angels was necessary to complete the novel. Only this time, she will guide Lloyd, Joe, and the rest of the “good guys” against the evil that takes place in the latter 2020s…the “end times” maybe?

Finally, that control mechanism that Big Tech invented to trick folks into thinking the world was becoming a better place, Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a prominent role in this novel…fake images, fake “messiah,” and other ways to deceive believers on Christ so that they renege on their belief and side with the beast system. Strong delusion stuff…

Sorry this post is late, but I have been very busy with activities these past few weeks, including daughter getting married…finally! To a new believer on Christ no less…

Speaking of ‘The End Times’… This Scenario is Likely to Play Into My Next Novel (and Maybe the Last One).

This post will be short, but it is something I must write as I now do scriptural research regarding the so-called “end times” which likely leads to ‘the great tribulation.’ Of course, only God knows, but still….it just seems like we are heading into this time frame.

Do not assume the war between Israel and Iran sparked this scenario; after all, the two nations have been wanting to ‘war’ each other for years now. All those videos and pictures of Israeli PM Netanyahu claiming Iran is building a nuclear weapon….since the 90s! Then you have various US officials claiming Iran does not have nukes… but they have enrichment facilities that US president Trump wants them to shut down… There are time I wonder if Trump thinks he controls the Middle East… Hmmmmmmm….. He claims to want peace but seems to be threatening Iran’s government, which, right now according to videos and news sources, is bombing the heck out of Israel! My advice to Trump (not that he cares, but still….)–let these two nations fight it out and do not get the US militarily involved in this (you know, the draft? Remember Vietnam? I do, which is why I hate war! My brother lost one of his best friends…for nothing!)

Harking back to my previous post which states that the Bible claims there will be wars and rumors of wars and nations against nations and earthquakes in various places and famines (Gaza, but maybe also North Korea, parts of Africa, and other places) and also persecution of believers on Christ (including in Israel, where Christian broadcast networks show videos of Orthodox Jews spitting on Christians there), all of this is happening now; however, these events have been going on for many, many years. Can one recall any year over the past several hundred years that had no wars, no earthquakes, no famines, no religious persecution of believers, including persecutions of Christians…by Christians? Reformation and all that…. So, it isn’t as if these events are just happening now. But they do seem to be having a more negative effect.

Finally, technocracy is rising, which reminds me of what Christ said about ‘the days of Noah.’ During the days of Noah, what are now considered technocrats were, back then, folks who messed with human DNA. Genesis Chapter Six says it all: the sons of God (fallen angels) mated with the daughters of men to produce “giants” also called “nephelim”–part human, part non-human… Or, today it might be called “transhuman,” where folks are implanted with chips or whatever that changes DNA (uh, Covid “vaccines” maybe?). To where humans merge with “the cloud” or technology to “live forever.”

And another thing which is concerning: AI, or “artificial intelligence,” which can create whatever written paper or video or picture out of thin air with some form of human guidance…or not. This AI generation can possibly even create a fake “rapture” in order to get those believers of the so-called “pre-trib rapture” of the church–who see beings being “raptured” in the air but are not “raptured” themselves–to “backslide” against Christ because they thought they’d be raptured and were not–which angers them maybe into thinking all that Biblical prophecy stuff is BS and leave the Body of Christ behind….now wouldn’t Satan or the Anti-Christ love that one! It is this “fake rapture” possibility that is causing me to do more research on end-times prophecy and a likely conclusion there is no “pre-trib rapture.” It is more likely to happen AFTER the tribulation when the “wrath of God” takes place and Christ returns, the “second coming”…whenever that will be. Only God knows, and I suspect modern-day prophecy preachers have no clue.

More to come soon…but I will be busy this week and next week. Cheers!

Putting Together The Murder Rule….and the Fun of It!

I am nearly finished with the final edit of The Murder Rule, and, when the edit and any other info that needs to be included is complete, it will become a downloadable FREE PDF and will also become copyright registered with the Library of Congress. That way, no AI mechanism can “re-write” this novel, and hackers, beware. When a literary work is registered with the Library of Congress, one can sue to copyright violator.

Update: The Murder Rule has been finalized and registered with the Library of Congress as a published work. The finished FREE PDF novel will be uploaded soon, and the menu above will link to where it can be downloaded.

There is some Biblical scripture in The Murder Rule, but the scripture is from the copyright-free Authorized King James Version, so no copyright violation issues there.

And another thing—a couple of parts of this novel have sections of previously copyrighted manuscripts; two parts are featured in Battle of the Band, and one part, Chapter Two of Part Three of The Murder Rule is (with some changes) featured in The Prodigal Band. This is already copyrighted material I have authored in the original trilogy novels, so I will have to mention this within The Murder Rule. After all, The Murder Rule is a “spin-off” novel from The Prodigal Band Trilogy novels. But since I own the copyright to these sections (most of which were revised somewhat in The Murder Rule), no issues there.

Let me explain why I chose certain “spin-off” scenarios from the trilogy when I could have chosen other parts.

Why I Will Just Keep On Writing No Matter What: A Short Statement That is Part of My Mission to Promote Good and Expose Evil

Having just finished editing Part One of The Murder Rule, I am wondering about the course of action I should be heading toward after I finish editing the entire novel—just turn it into a FREE PDF? Just post it by chapters on this site? Post it on Kindle? And then what?

Further, while book sales are fine, I’m not really concerned about book sales, and, having reached well over one thousand downloads of the FREE PDF The Prodigal Band, I’m not really concerned about downloads either. Now, visits to this site have been down a bit lately, so I am wondering if some sort of censorship algorithm (or bots) are in play here, and the down-visits started right about the time I posted that post regarding ChatGPT, basically mocking the notion that some bot or even person would use ChatGPT to “re-write” my novels, which, BTW, are copyrighted and registered with the Library of Congress. Coincidence? After all, the so-called (Ephesians 6:12) “rulers of this world” and “wickedness in high places” don’t like the fact that Christ is my Lord and Savior and these evil forces do not want me to get this word out with the message that acceptance of this is by free choice and I would never force anyone to do this acceptance. But too bad. The forces of evil, spiritual or otherwise, are not stopping me.

And, having said that the forces of evil are not stopping me… One reason I am writing The Murder Rule is because I believe that the minions of the forces of evil—the evil governments and the evil leaders of them, oligarchies run by evil people who want to control you (which is why they crave money—control), leaders of evil ideologies (and I’m not just referring to ‘wokesters’ here…remember, the evil plays both sides using the “both sides of the same coin” control mechanism) —anyway, these evil leaders want to reduce the world’s populations as well as “transhumanize” us, as well as use the notion of transgender to confuse us, especially young people who may regret later their gender-changing “therapies,” as well as driving fear into our hearts and minds. And what better way to try to convince “the masses” that killing off millions of people is a ‘good idea’ than by murdering those opposed to their evil agenda or those who won’t toe their line or those who speak truth and spiritual goodness? (Example: think Tucker Carlson’s ‘dismissal’ from Fox News here, then ramp it up a few notches!) Thus, the whacked (or ‘dismissed’) truth-tellers cannot blog or video or report this evil to help the masses understand the truth so that the masses can resist the evil agenda and overcome the fear instilled in them.

But they have not “whacked” me yet, so I will continue to expose them, using fiction. After all, if George Orwell and Aldous Huxley and Alexander Solzhenitsyn and Kurt Vonnegut (“Harrison Bergeron” author) and others can do it…

Imagine This: Would I Let ChatGPT Write Another Spin-Off Novel? Hmmmmmmm…..

Instead of writing another Snippet-to-Spin-Off post about bad events leading to desired outcomes, this thought just popped into my mind after reading posts about writers or publishers re-working novels or non-fiction using the Artificial Intelligence AI app known as “ChatGPT” (regardless of version…I heard ChatGPT 4.0 was the latest) to rewrite the novels. If indeed this kind of activity is actually true. One thing I’ve come to realize in some online posts, is that some of it is just click-bait and some of it is only partially true. I know for a fact that folks use ChatGPT to create research or college term papers (but not myself…I don’t need AI if you know what I mean! I’m too “old school,” right?) Why pay someone who can actually write and spell correctly and do proper research to write your term paper when you can just download an app and get the app to do it? (Note: a local college student actually paid me to write a term paper back in the late 90s about animal husbandry…which I know little about, but the data online helped me out a bit…) And while this could be construed as “cheating,” it makes sense to some extent—if you can trust AI, that is. But there has been some criticism of ChatGPT, such as ‘it was created by leftist wokesters’ or ‘it isn’t equity-oriented enough’ or ‘it just writes what some tech oligarch tells it to’ or whatever, because if it’s just Big Tech then it’s nonsense, right? I know, I know…it’ll create the actual “Terminator”! Imagine…Arnold Schwarzenegger inventing ChatGPT! Or using it somehow…or maybe Sarah Conner… Bwahahahahahah! (Note: I’m joking, okay?)

But suppose I actually imagined downloading ChatGPT in order for it to actually write another Prodigal Band Trilogy spin-off novel (as is The Murder Rule I am in the process of completing, hopefully by this summer). First of all, could ChatGPT actually write a spin-off unless it actually read any of the trilogy books? Hmmm. Can this app read books by itself? Well, I wonder if it could come to this website and read all the snippet posts; then, maybe, it could accomplish that task. But ChatGPT still might have a problem considering all the spiritual aspects of this trilogy, whether good or evil—can AI actually recognize these spiritual aspects? Does ChatGPT actually think God, or Christ, or the Holy Spirit, or Satan/Corion/Lucifer, or demons, or spirit beings such as Morwenna/witch of the Hovels…does ChatGPT actually think (if it does actually “think”!) these entities actually exist? Or, since The Prodigal Band Trilogy is fiction, would ChatGPT think these entities are just fiction? (Considering many humans think these entities are actually fiction….Hmmmm….)

But here is what came into my head within the past 24 hours, roughly, starting with the fictional notion of ChatGPT writing me a message on MS Word all of a sudden. Remember—this is just a fictional event I imagined.
