This course, developed by Kate Ott, PhD, cultivates robust discussion about how faith values guide ethical AI conversations. It is an opportunity to cultivate, what Felicia Wu Song calls a “realistic and motivating vision of our circumstance that helps us imagine the kind of life we are hoping to live and how it is we can get there” in her book Restless Devices: Recovering Personhood Presence, and Place in the Digital Age.
This course cultivates robust discussion about how faith values guide ethical ministerial approaches to artificial intelligence technologies use. AI is regularly used in religious communities, some studies show a 91% adoption rate of AI use in churches (of course, that’s any form of AI which is a broad range). Yet, most churches don’t have discerned practices or policies and most adopt the tools without applying a theological or ethical framework to how or why they are using them. This course helps participants develop their theoethical framework related to AI by increasing the participant’s digital literacy.
The course launches May 1. To register, visit https://enroll.garrettcollective.org/courses/ai-tools-for-ministry
