Tech is Our New Religion And It Needs Reformation, with Greg Epstein

Added on December 17, 2024 by Jon Krohn.

In today's fascinating episode, Harvard/MIT's humanist chaplain (and bestselling author!) Greg Epstein details how tech has become our foremost religion... and why this new religion needs reformation 😈

More on Greg:

• Serves as humanist chaplain at both Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

• Wrote the bestselling book “Good without God: What a Billion Nonreligious People Do Believe."

Today’s episode focuses largely on Greg’s latest book, "Tech Agnostic", and should be interesting to everyone. In today’s episode, Greg details:

• How technology has supplanted traditional religion as society's most powerful belief system.

• Why Silicon Valley's promise of technological salvation parallels religious prophecies.

• The concerning parallel between AI's "singularity" and religious end-of-times narratives.

• How we can embrace technological progress while maintaining our humanity.

• Why building genuine human connections matters more than chasing technological utopias.
