Is AI A Tool For Love? with Cathie Caimano | Episode 287

Is artificial intelligence a threat — or a tool for love? Episcopal priest Cathie Caimano thinks it’s the latter, and she joins Dennis in making the case that most church conversations about AI are missing the point entirely.

Drawing from Pope Leo’s encyclical Magnifica Humanitas, Cathie argues the question isn’t whether AI is good or bad, but how each of us chooses to use it. While headlines focused on the Pope’s warnings about AI’s dangers, Cathie found something different at the heart of the encyclical — a call to examine our own values and ask how we are using these powerful new tools to love God and love our neighbor.
