The Rise of Technology as Religion

Technology has increasingly become viewed as a form of religion, with many individuals developing an almost cult-like devotion to it. This phenomenon is particularly evident in the current emphasis on artificial intelligence (AI), which some regard as a transformative force that could significantly shape our future. The conversation highlights how tech leaders, much like religious figures, are often idolized, resulting in followers who place immense trust in their visions and promises. Such behavior raises concerns about critical thinking and skepticism regarding the true implications and ethical considerations of these technologies.
