Abstract

Throughout history, one of the greatest intellectual and philosophical challenges humanities has faced is the question of the existence of God. With technological advancements and the emergence of artificial intelligence, an opportunity has now arisen to approach this question from a new angle, utilizing the advanced capabilities of artificial intelligence. The research methodology of this study is applied in terms of its purpose and exploratory (simulation) in nature. In the first phase, it continued with responses from the intelligent system ChatGPT until reaching the saturation point of answers. In the second phase, using thematic analysis, each of the responses was semantically coded and placed in common themes. The findings were categorized and interpreted in four sections: philosophical, religious, perceptual, and scientific. The results indicate that, from a philosophical perspective, artificial intelligence has the capability to contemplate the concept of the existence of God. Religiously, it analyzes and interprets religious texts and concepts with precision. Perceptually, it has the ability to understand and recognize various types of experiences, feelings, and thoughtful reflections on God, analyzing and reconstructing these perceptions based on existing patterns in the data. Scientifically, it precisely presents the intersections and scientific relationships regarding existence and creation, exploration, and ultimate results.
