Description
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a buzzword that is moving from science fiction to a real part of our everyday lives. We encounter big data and AI everywhere now. Whether advertising, summarizing internet searches or generating art, there’s an AI for that! As the abilities of AI grow at a rapid rate, there will be broad impacts to Christians and the church. The exponential increase in computing power and abilities will bring about rapid societal changes. Instead of waiting for these changes, the church needs to address them proactively. If the church is not prepared, these changes will outpace any response we may have. In this sectional, we will explore the realities of current and future AI. We will learn what exactly AI is, how it is made and what the future of the technology holds. We also will discover practical uses of AI in everyday life and church work. We will ask and discuss the tough questions about AI, seeking answers in God’s revelation to us in His Word.
