Can AI Replace the Need for Belief in God?
In a podcast, "Does Revelation Talk About Artificial Intelligence?", he discusses with Robert J. Marks, director of the Walter Bradley Institute, the title question: "Can AI replace the need for belief in God?" Robert J. Marks (right): Let's talk about the theological implications of AI. You have a reputation, not only as a mathematician, but a Christian apologist. And I wanted to go into some of the apologetics that you gave in the book and how it relates to some of the modern perceptions of artificial intelligence. Generally, how will technical advances affect the way in which people, either believers or non-believers, think of God? John Lennox: Well, sometimes technological development has a very positive effect because if, like myself, you believe that God is the intelligence behind the universe, that he's made human beings in his image, so that we are to a certain extent creative and we can produce this technology. Then the existence of the technology and the need for science itself is evidence that there is a God behind it all. So that is a positive development.
