Meghan O'Gieblyn is an essayist whose work has appeared in publications including The New Yorker, Harper's Magazine, and The New York Times. She was raised within evangelical Christianity and trained formally in theology at Moody Bible Institute before leaving her faith as an adult, an experience that runs underneath much of her writing about technology, belief, and meaning. God, Human, Animal, Machine, published in 2021, draws on that background to examine artificial intelligence, consciousness, and transhumanism not as purely technical subjects, but as the latest chapter in a much older human effort to explain what we are and why it matters.
