Aprašymas

Genesis in the Age of AI offers a new reading of the book of Genesis as a philosophy of consciousness. Bringing biblical interpretation into conversation with philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and artificial intelligence, it argues that Genesis presents human consciousness as the subjective inner life underlying creativity, moral agency, and human relationships.

Drawing on literary analysis, classical Jewish interpretation, and contemporary philosophy, the book traces the unfolding of consciousness across Genesis, from creation and Eden to the story of Abraham. It argues that the biblical concepts of the image and likeness of God are grounded in first-person subjectivity rather than intelligence, reason, or speech, offering a compelling alternative to computational accounts of the mind. Engaging thinkers from Maimonides and the Midrash to Gödel, Turing, Penrose, Nagel, and Chalmers, it presents the Bible as a profound phenomenology of consciousness that speaks directly to one of the defining philosophical questions of our time: what makes human consciousness distinct from algorithmic computation?

Written for everyone grappling with the philosophical, ethical, and spiritual questions raised by artificial intelligence, this book will appeal to scholars and students in the fields of religious studies and theology, philosophy of mind, biblical interpretation, the digital humanities, and AI ethics.
