AI Is Repeating the Bible's Oldest Lie — John Lennox Explains Why

Could the race toward artificial intelligence be reviving one of the Bible's oldest warnings? In this conversation, Oxford mathematician John Lennox discusses AI safety, technological surveillance, Revelation 13, the mark of the beast, humanity's attempt to “make God,” and the biblical claim that human beings were created in the image of God. In this edited and commented segment, The Christian Take examines Lennox's argument without turning it into prophecy sensationalism. Lennox isn't simply claiming that AI itself is the biblical beast. The deeper question is whether modern technology can amplify the same patterns of control, idolatry, and self-deification that Scripture warns about from Genesis to Revelation. This clip comes from David Perell's How I Write conversation with John Lennox. Watch the full original conversation below. Original video: https://youtu.be/7iD6n9bRZns?si=Z-waYRUNBm4mu_gf
