This Episode is *Not* about Angels... Join us as we talk with Marie van Emerick and Oliver Wright: two scholars at Pembroke College Oxford who are working in the area of theology, philosophy, and artificial intelligence. They emphasize the role of the humanities in responding to and engaging with big questions raised by LLMs, especially when it comes to questions about what it means to be human. What do these technologies reveal to us about ourselves, and how are they shaping us?

Josh Lawman, a software engineer who works with LLMs, gives us the inside look at how they work. Are they really a groundbreaking innovation like the printing press and the internet? What are the dangers of thinking they can solve all the world's problems? What perspective does Christianity bring to the debate?

These and other questions are discussed in this episode. Enjoy!

Welcome to a new series on Artificial Intelligence!

In this episode Professor Ruth Okediji joins us on the show to talk about the rapid rise of Large Language Models (LLMs). Why have they been so quickly adopted by so many people? What ethical and legal challenges do they present? How can we use them wisely and responsibly to help us and our society become better from a Christian point of view?

This is the first of a wide variety of perspectives on AI from many different areas of expertise.
