S02 Ep055 | AI Supports the Bible, But Can It Save Humanity?
In Episode 55 of The Genesis Science Report, David opens with a compelling look at the laws of logic—the invisible rules that govern every thought, every conversation, and every scientific discovery. Are these laws merely human conventions, or do they point to something far deeper? David unpacks why logic cannot be explained by material processes alone and how its universality, immateriality, and unchanging nature point directly to the God who created an ordered universe. Even reasoning itself becomes evidence of design.
Next, world-renowned engineering professor Dr. Andy McIntosh joins the program to explore the astonishing design of the human brain. Far more sophisticated than any computer system ever built, the brain operates through a network of chemical and electrical “circuits” that enable memory, language, creativity, and abstract thought. Dr. McIntosh explains how these systems couldn’t arise gradually through natural selection—but instead reflect purposeful engineering. From information processing to irreducibly complex neural pathways, the brain displays a level of ingenuity that mirrors the mind of a Creator.
Finally, genomic researcher Dr. Jeff Tomkins addresses a troubling trend emerging from Silicon Valley: embryo screening for predicted IQ. With tech executives reportedly paying tens of thousands of dollars to select embryos with preferred traits, a new frontier of human customization is rapidly unfolding. Dr. Tomkins explains why IQ prediction from genetics is scientifically unreliable, why humans cannot be reduced to data points, and how attempts to “design” intelligence misunderstand the complexity of God’s design for life. He also examines the ethical dangers of treating children like products—and contrasts this attitude with the biblical truth that human worth is inherent, not engineered.
Also featured:
• A Kids Corner spotlighting the clever engineering of real-life shape-shifting animals
• A Genesis Science Minute revealing how glaciers and pressure can fracture mighty rocks
• A Featured Resource equipping viewers to engage with Scripture’s claims about creation
• Ministry updates and a fresh look at God’s handiwork in the natural world
This episode bridges logic, neuroscience, genetics, and ethics—reminding us that from our thoughts to our DNA, every part of creation testifies to intentional, purposeful design.
