From Babel to AI (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798385241804)

From Babel to AI: Idolatry, Transhumanism, and the Crisis of Imago Dei confronts the profound questions of human identity and purpose in an age dominated by technological innovation. Drawing from biblical narratives like the Tower of Babel, this thought-provoking work explores how artificial intelligence, transhumanism, and other modern advancements echo ancient struggles with idolatry and hubris.
At its core, this book calls readers to rediscover the doctrine of the imago Dei--the belief that humanity is created in the image of God--as the foundation for addressing the ethical and theological challenges of our time. Through compelling analysis and case studies, it unpacks the dangers of dehumanizing technologies and offers a robust theological framework for engaging them while safeguarding human dignity and relationality.
Whether readers are a scholar, church leader, or thoughtful believer wrestling with the implications of AI and transhumanism, From Babel to AI will inspire all to think deeply, act faithfully, and reclaim humanity's divine purpose in a rapidly changing world.
