Publisher's Synopsis
"What Does It Mean to Be Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence?"
Artificial Intelligence is not just changing the world-it's redefining what it means to be human. From AI-generated art to algorithmic pastoral care, machines now mimic creativity, empathy, and even spiritual guidance. But can they truly know, love, or worship? Or do they expose the irreplaceable sacredness of embodied, relational life?
In this theological manifesto, Brendon Naicker confronts AI as an ontological earthquake, shaking the foundations of Christian thought. Drawing on Scripture, tradition, and cutting-edge philosophy, the book argues that AI's most profound threat isn't job displacement or privacy erosion-but the erosion of personhood itself. When machines simulate the imago Dei, they force us to ask: What, if anything, remains unique about humanity?
