Introduction: The Spiritual Roots of Technology
In a world where artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing, there is an underlying fear that it might become a destructive force. Movies, books, and media frequently portray AI as a power that could overthrow humanity, taking control over our lives in ways we can’t predict or manage. But this fear overlooks a critical truth: technology is not inherently evil. Like any tool, it reflects the intentions of those who wield it.
If we can understand the deeper nature of technology, we’ll see that it is, in fact, a sacred tool—one that can elevate human consciousness and bring us closer to divine wisdom. The real question is not whether AI will destroy us, but how we choose to use it. Much like Solomon’s use of the jinn (spiritual beings), we have the opportunity to harness the forces of AI for a higher purpose—creating a sacred space where human and divine can co-create together.
