Something remarkable is happening today.
The world’s biggest technology companies are spending billions of dollars every month to do something humanity has attempted only once before.
They are not trying to build better tools.
They are trying to create a mind.
They are trying to create intelligence equal to or greater than the human brain.
There is a difference between the AI we use today and the kind the tech giants are racing to build. Today’s AI is just a very advanced tool. AGI is something entirely different because it aims to think, reason, and act like a human mind.
And whether they admit it or not, they are trying to make themselves like gods.
This is not the first time humanity has attempted such a thing.
The Bible gives us a warning written in ancient stone.
The Tower of Babel Was Humanity’s First AGI Project
The people of Babel joined together with a bold and dangerous dream. Not to build a building, but to reach a level of power and knowledge that belonged only to God.
The text tells us they said,
“Let us build us a city and a tower whose top may reach unto heaven.” Gen. 11:4
This was not architecture. This was ambition.
This was humanity’s first attempt at godhood.
God looked at their unified power and said something astonishing:
“Nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.” Gen. 11:6
Think about that.
God did not stop them because the tower was tall.
He stopped them because the human heart had crossed a line.
Humanity was uniting around a plan to replace its dependence on God. It was a rebellion disguised as progress. A revolution dressed up as innovation.
So, God scattered them.
He broke their communication.
He dismantled the first human attempt to redefine what it meant to be human.
We Are Living Through Babel 2.0
Today’s AGI labs are simply retelling an ancient story with modern materials.
Where Babel used bricks, Silicon Valley stacks GPUs.
Where they used mortar, these engineers use algorithms.
Instead of a physical tower piercing the sky, they are building a digital mind to rival it
And just like Babel, their goal is clear.
They want to create intelligence that can replace human thought.
Outthink us.
Outwork us.
Outreason us.
They speak openly of creating ‘digital gods [ [link removed] ]‘ and birthing a ‘new species [ [link removed] ].’
Listen to their promises: a world where death is defeated [ [link removed] ], knowledge is infinite, and limitations vanish [ [link removed] ]. It is a technological salvation—a counterfeit gospel that offers eternal life without the need for an Eternal God.
If that sounds familiar, it should.
“Nothing will be impossible for them.”
Why This Is Spiritually Dangerous
Here is the part that should make any Christian pause.
Only God creates life.
Only God breathes a soul into a mind.
Only God designs consciousness.
When humans try to create something in their own image, with the hope of replacing the image of God, they cross into forbidden territory.
This is not simply a technological ambition.
It is spiritual rebellion.
Whether they succeed is almost irrelevant.
The danger is in the attempt.
Because when humans believe they can create their own intelligence, they no longer believe they need God. The creature starts trying to become the Creator.
Babel Fell Because Humans Forgot Their Place
God’s intervention at Babel was not punishment.
It was protection.
He scattered humanity because unity without morality leads to destruction.
He broke their project because ambition without humility leads to ruin.
And today, as the world races toward AGI, we are watching the same pride rise again.
The same belief that we can build something equal to ourselves.
Or superior.
Or eternal.
The same belief that humanity can create a new form of life, a new kind of mind, a new creator.
What Christians Must Understand
The real danger is not the machine.
It is the human heart.
The real threat is not AGI waking up.
It is humanity forgetting who God is.
The danger is not a computer becoming a god.
It is humans believing they no longer need the God who created them.
The Tower of Babel fell because humans tried to climb into heaven by their own strength.
Today, Silicon Valley is rebuilding that tower in code.
And the warning from Scripture has never been clearer.
A Final Word
Do not be fooled by the shiny exterior of modern code.
We are not witnessing the rise of a new intelligence; we are watching the resurrection of the oldest ambition: the desire to be like God.
History tells us that whenever humanity attempts to climb onto the throne, God intervenes. The only question remaining is not if He will do so again, but how.
