Artifical Intelligence: Tool or Takeover? Apr 18, 2024

Show notes

AI knows Godsplaining! Hear Fr. Patrick and Fr. Bonaventue discuss AI and what it means to us as humans.

Artificial Intelligence has plenty of uses, and is now a part of our daily lives. It was and is made by and for humans... but is it actually just a tool? Is it it's own thing? Does it help us, or replace us? What are its limits? Will its power make us forget what it means to be human? Is it a threat to humanity? How can it impact how we relate to Christ?
