Can a chatbot pray for you? 🤖🙏
When Abbot Ankido Sipo tells Fr. David Stephen that ChatGPT ended a conversation with “I’ll pray for you,” the pair launch into a wide-ranging (and surprisingly fun) Catholic deep-dive on artificial intelligence, art, personhood, and the future of the Church in the age of algorithms.
🔹 Key themes & takeaways
—AI is brilliant at mimicking language but incapable of real empathy or love.
—True creativity and beauty carry the “imperfection” of the human soul—something no prompt can produce.
—The Church has faced every major revolution—from printing presses to industrial factories—and has the moral framework to meet the AI age.
—Technology should serve our vocation to glorify God, never replace the growth that comes from struggle, sacrifice, and community.
