Details

Why has Silicon Valley become so captivated by apocalypse? From AI and transhumanism to techno-optimism, accelerationism, and visions of civilisational collapse, contemporary tech elites are increasingly shaping politics through powerful narratives about humanity’s future. This interdisicplinary workshop brings together scholars to examine the myths, theologies, and ideologies that animate today’s technology discourse and the political order it seeks to create.
