A Virtual Event Presentation by Harris Bor
Event Co-Sponsored by Congregation Or Tzion
About The Event:
AI raises innumerable questions about our desires for the future and what it means to be human. Can Judaism speak to these questions? Technology shows us what is possible. Can Jewish theology show us what is wise? Harris Bor explores these questions and other themes from his new book “Staying Human – A Jewish Theology for the Age of Artificial Intelligence.” Featuring Spinoza, Heidegger, terrible sci-fi films, and classical Jewish texts.
