Introduction

The increasing role and power of artificial intelligence in our lives and world requires us to imagine and shape a desirable future with this technology.

Context and Inspiration

Since visions of AI often draw from Christian apocalyptic narratives, current discussions about technological hopes and fears present an opportunity for a deeper engagement with Christian eschatological resources.

Purpose and Argument

This book argues that the Christian apocalyptic imagination can transform how we think about and use AI, helping us discover ways artificial agency may participate in new creation.
