- In this captivating session, we explore the intriguing intersection of artificial intelligence and religion with our distinguished guest, Dr. Ilia Delio. Dr. Delio is a Franciscan Sister of Washington, DC, and the Josephine Connelly Endowed Chair in Theology at Villanova University. With two doctorate degrees in Pharmacology and Historical Theology, she is an award-winning author renowned for her works on evolution, AI, consciousness, quantum reality, and the integration of science and religion.
Dr. Delio's research is deeply influenced by Jesuit scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, who devoted his spiritual writings to bridging Christianity and evolution. Her impressive career includes teaching Science and Religion at Trinity College and serving as a visiting professor and Director of Catholic Studies at Georgetown University.

2. AI Bias and Regulation: What are your views on AI regulation and who should lead the effort if AI regulation is necessary?
3. Divine Action and Chaos: How do you see artificial intelligence contributing to or challenging our understanding of divine action in a world of chaos and the emergence of God in evolution?
4. The Omega Point and AGI: Does generative AI have a role to play in the evolution of human consciousness towards a final point of unification with the divine?
5. AI and Consciousness: How do you think AI challenges or complements traditional religious views on consciousness and personhood?
6. Interdisciplinary Dialogue: What role do you see for interdisciplinary dialogue in shaping the future of AI technologies, especially considering your work on the metaphysics of love as a bridge between science and religion?

Wao! Interesting. Loving it.
You should try to connect with Father Spitzers Universe podcast and interview him on this same subject.
Thanks for the suggestion. I am currently reading his book "The Spirit of Leadership: Optimizing Creativity and Change in Organizations" and reviewing some of his work on science and religion. I will definitely reach out to him for an opportunity for a conversation.
Very informative, and great questions with responses on connecting AI, and religion.
Seems befitting as a lot wonder if AI will eventually take over the world. Or AI itself a tool for recreation. I wonder.
Thanks for the feedback. AI can definitely relate with different fields and will continue to be an essential aspect of our lives.
Interesting point of view. The challenge with any new technology is how it is used. We have examples from other great technologies in energy, transportation, communication, medicine, etc. that have been used for both good and evil so I would expect the same from AI.
Spot on! AI, just like other technologies, is a dual-edge technology. While it has enormous benefits, the unfortunate reality is that some people will use it for crime and other negative things.
