God, AI and the End of History: Understanding the Book of Revelation in an Age of Intelligent Machines

Summary

A fresh interpretation of Revelation for the 21st century, exploring the connections between John’s visions and the terrifying prospect of an Artificial Super Intelligence that emerges to deceive the world and oppose the rule of Christ.

Are Artificial Intelligences the Future’s False Gods?

In God, AI, and the End of History, renowned author and Oxford mathematician John Lennox explores the explosive intersection of artificial intelligence, biblical prophecy, the Antichrist, and the end times.

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology advances at an unprecedented pace, many experts are asking: Could AI - or Artificial Super Intelligences (ASI) - one day dominate the world?

Unlike other books on AI or biblical prophecy, Lennox breaks new ground by connecting the rise of superintelligent machines with the apocalyptic visions recorded in Revelation. He warns that future developments in AI could deceive billions - just as foretold in Scripture - engineered by the one Jesus called “the father of lies,” and whom the apostle John identified as “the Antichrist.”

This compelling, deeply researched book offers a unique Christian perspective on AI, ethics, and eschatology, challenging readers to rethink how Jesus’ final message to his followers may speak directly to our rapidly changing technological world.

If you’re questioning AI and curious about what the Bible, prophecy, and emerging technologies reveal about end-time events, this is the essential guide you’ve been waiting for.
