Бог, человек, животное, машина. Поиски смысла в расколдованном мире

Бог, человек, животное, машина. Поиски смысла в расколдованном мире

Since the times of Newton and Descartes, scientific thinking has disenchanted the world: it has expunged mystical forces and replaced them with mechanical laws. Questions about the structure of the universe, which philosophers and theologians have pondered for centuries, are... now the domain of neurobiologists and artificial intelligence specialists. Is it possible to separate consciousness from the body and transfer it to a computer? Does free will exist? Is the universe a simulation?
American writer Megan O'Giblin grew up in a religious family and went through her own experience of disillusionment with faith. "God, Man, Animal, Machine" is a captivating story about how scientific discoveries and digital technologies change our understanding of ourselves. Dostoevsky meets Hannah Arendt, Niels Bohr, and Nikolai Fedorov here, AI developers resurrect the golem, and biblical prophets turn out to be forerunners of modern transhumanists and futurists.
