Staying Human

Futurists Speculate That We Are Heading Towards A 'Singularity,' Where Ai Will Outsmart Human Beings, And Humanity Will Coalesce Into A Single, Ever-Expanding Mind For Which Data Is Everything. The Idea Mirrors Conceptions Of God As Everything, Singular, And All-Knowing. But Is This Idea Of The Singularity, Or God, Good For Humanity? Oneness Has Its Attractions. But What Space Does It Leave For Individuality And Difference? In This Book, British-Jewish Theologian, Harris Bor, Explores These Questions By Applying Approaches To Oneness And Difference Found In The Thought Of Philosophers, Benedict Spinoza (1632-1677) And Martin Heidegger (1889-1976), To The Challenges Of Religious Belief And Practice In The Era Of Ai. What Emerges Is A Dynamic Religion Of The Everyday Capable Of Balancing All Aspects Of Being, While Holding Tight To A God Who Is Both Singular And Wholly Other, And Which Urges Us, Above All, To Stay Human.
