Professor Chris Watkin: AI, the Biblical Worldview, & the Hope of Humanity

from Captured Imaginary · host Jeffrey Beaupre

Joining Captured Imaginary today is our first ever guest, Chris Watkin. In this episode we talk about AI, trying to take a balanced approach where both dystopian visions of doom, and overhyped tech-optimism are traded for the biblical worldview, where God gives grace to the weak, humans are irreplaceable, and Christianity will always be an embodied existence.Chris Watkin (PhD, University of Cambridge) is an Australian Research Council Future Fellow and associate professor in European languages at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia. He has written many books, including the award-winning Biblical Critical Theory: How the Bible’s Unfolding Story Makes Sense of Modern Life and Culture. He is also the host of the podcast Silicone Spiritualities, produced by the Gospel Coalition.#AI #Christianity #reformedtheology #AIethics #humanity #Godislove
