Rapid developments in Artificial Intelligence are radically changing the world, raising serious questions about human agency, responsibility, and the future. How should we address the impending changes to our self-understanding, relationships, work, and nearly every other area of society? Although there is much to applaud in AI, Christianity’s commitment to the advancement of the human person requires fuller ethical and theological investigations of the meaning of AI’s advent. Join three UVA faculty to discuss a Catholic response to AI developed by a working group sponsored by the Vatican’s Centre for Digital Culture. All are invited to join us for this public and very necessary discussion.
This program is made possible through the support of grant #62372 from the John Templeton Foundation, “In Lumine: Promoting the Catholic Intellectual Tradition on Campuses Nationwide."
