In this episode of Leaders of AI, hosts Julia McCoy and Dave Shapiro interview guest Jason Moore, author of "AI and the Church" and pioneering church technology leader, for an enlightening discussion on the intersection of artificial intelligence and spirituality.

They explore how faith communities can embrace AI while maintaining authenticity, debunk common fears about technology, and discuss practical applications for religious organizations with limited resources. Moore shares valuable insights from his experience helping hundreds of churches navigate the AI revolution, offering a balanced perspective that acknowledges both the opportunities and potential pitfalls. This conversation bridges the gap between traditional faith practices and cutting-edge technology, providing a framework for thoughtful AI adoption in spiritual contexts.

What's inside this episode:

  • Technology and Tradition: How churches and faith communities can leverage AI tools while preserving authentic human connections and spiritual experiences, with practical examples of implementation in resource-constrained environments.
  • Ethical AI Adoption: A thoughtful framework for categorizing AI applications into tasks AI should do, tasks AI can augment, and areas that should remain exclusively human, particularly in spiritual contexts.
  • Liberation Through Technology: An optimistic perspective on how AI can free up religious leaders and communities to focus more on meaningful human interaction and spiritual growth while maintaining the soul of their mission.
