Book Review: Made in Our Image by Stephen Driscoll
Artificial intelligence is bringing changes quickly, and people have lots of opinions. It's not the easiest topic to get a handle on. If you're looking for an accessible book to help you see AI through a biblical lens, I recommend Made in Our Image by Stephen Driscoll.
There are several beneficial features of this book:
- It's biblical: Driscoll's primary concern is to help readers bring biblical principles to bear on AI.
- It's accessible: He doesn't presuppose a lot of technical knowledge, nor familiarity with other writing about the impact of technology on society. It's also not super-long (192 pages).
- It's reasonably timeless: Because his purpose is to apply biblical principle rather than describe the technology itself, what Driscoll says about AI should remain relevant for at least a few years (which is a very long time in the AI world).
- It's opinionated: he takes definite positions regarding some key questions about AI.
