Summary

Can a machine be sentient without being conscious? Should a pastor ever let AI touch his sermon? And what does a fourth-century hermit who lived to 105 in the Egyptian desert have to say about Ray Kurzweil? Chase sits down for a third time with C.R. Wiley, pastor, novelist, and author of the new Canon Press book Manmade: Saint Anthony's Guide to Surviving the AI Apocalypse, to work through what AI actually is and what it is doing to us. They cover Harari's claim that humans are hackable animals, the golem legends of Prague as the better metaphor for what we've built, why embodiment and vulnerability are the ground of moral intelligence, where the line falls between therapeutic and vanity uses of technology, and the hard pastoral question of whether AI belongs anywhere near the work of preaching. Wiley is neither a doomer nor a booster. He wants you to use the thing without being used by it.
