Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Humanity (feat. John Lennox)

What will the year 2084 hold for you–for your friends, for your family, and for our society? Are we doomed to the grim dystopia imagined in George Orwell’s 1984? The questions posed by AI are open to all of us. And they demand answers. John Lennox challenges his audiences, no matter their worldview, showing how the Christian worldview, properly understood, can provide evidence-based, credible answers that will bring you real hope for the future of humanity.

About the Book:  You don’t have to be a computer scientist to get involved in the discussion about where artificial intelligence and technology are going.

What will the year 2084 hold for you–for your friends, for your family, and for our society? Are we doomed to the grim dystopia imagined in George Orwell’s 1984?

In 2084, scientist and philosopher John Lennox will introduce you to a kaleidoscope of ideas: the key developments in technological enhancement, bioengineering, and, in particular, artificial intelligence. You will discover the current capacity of AI, its advantages and disadvantages, the facts and the fiction, as well as potential future implications.

The questions posed by AI are open to all of us. And they demand answers.
