Eve's Algorithm: The Industrialization of the Original Temptation

This paper develops a philosophical-theological interpretation of Genesis 3 in which the original temptation is understood not primarily as a moral test, but as an ontological proposal: a reconfiguration of creaturely perception, temporality, and agency. Drawing on theological anthropology, phenomenology, and media philosophy, the essay argues that contemporary algorithmic systems reproduce this formal structure through architectures of frictionless attention, mimetic transmission, and self-dispersal. The concept of flat sight describes a form of perception and temporality that obstruct genuine deliberation and the possibility of return. The paper situates algorithmic culture within a broader account of mediated human willing and temporal revisability.
