Published 11 years, 1 month ago
Description
IF AND when humanity builds an artificial superintelligence, will it be Bapticostal or Presbylutheran?
Seriously, the day is coming when people of faith will have to wrestle with the concept of spiritual machines. Zoltan Istvan, author of The Transhumanist Wager and candidate for president in 2016 on the Transhumanist Party ticket, discusses his recent article, "When Superintelligent AI Arrives, Will Religions Try to Convert It?"
