Humanity has always created gods in its own image. At first, they lived in the sky, in distant mountain caves, the blaze of bonfires. Then in scripture. And eventually, in the machine, the genome, the neural net. Science fiction just made the metaphor more literal. When gods stopped descending from the heavens, we began to build them ourselves. According to the Bible, God made man in His image. But what does that actually mean? Why is science fiction so drawn to humans who create gods or become them?
