Where did we come from? Where we are going? The answers to these questions inform both our understanding of who we are and what we live for.

Through the ages, people have turned to science, philosophy, religion, and politics to satisfy their curiosity and their cravings for answers. Now, in the twenty-first century, the question of where we are going has become tied to technological advancements and is given a new urgency by the development of artificial intelligence.

But what does the often unsolicited and unrestricted incorporation of AI in our lives mean for us? For our individual and corporate privacy? Our political and personal freedom? The security of our jobs? Indeed for the future of our species as a whole?

What implications do advances in AI have on our worldviews in general and the God question in particular?

In the new 2084 series, scientist and philosopher John C. Lennox addresses the questions of where humanity is going. It’s a thought-provoking, balanced, and engaging resource on technology, meaning, and what it means to be a human being created in the image of God.

The 2084 series shows you how the Christian worldview, when properly understood, can provide evidence-based, credible answers that will bring real hope for the future of humanity.
