Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is giving a chilling prediction about how the growth and expansion of AI could rapidly change the world we live in.
According to CNBC, Gates told Jimmy Fallon in an interview on the Tonight Show earlier this year that humans will not be needed “for most things” with AI’s continual progression. He noted that human specialists such as doctors and teachers, will no longer be useful.

“…with AI, over the next decade, that will become free, commonplace — great medical advice, great tutoring,” said Gates.
As CNBC noted, Gates previously discussed with Harvard University professor Arthur Brooks that we are going into a new “free intelligence” period.
“It’s very profound and even a little bit scary,” Gates said. “…it’s happening very quickly, and there is not upper bound.”
From a biblical perspective, these warnings about AI are not just technological predictions but signs that align with what Scripture foretells about the last days. Revelation speaks of a coming system where human life, commerce and even thought will be controlled and monitored (Rev. 13:16–17).
The idea of machines replacing doctors, teachers and human specialists points toward a world where dependence on technology could easily be manipulated into a global system of control—one that prepares the way for the rise of the Antichrist. Daniel also prophesied that in the end times “knowledge shall increase” (Dan.12:4), and we are watching this unfold at a pace humanity has never experienced before.

While AI may promise convenience and advancement, believers must recognize the deeper spiritual implications. As we witness these rapid developments, we are reminded of Jesus’ words in Matthew 24 that deception will increase in the last days. The chilling predictions of Gates may well be part of that prophetic picture, urging us to stay watchful, discern the times, and anchor our hope not in technology but in the soon return of Christ.
