ChatGPT, Open AI, and Transhumanism [Ep.90]

CHAT GPT, OPEN AI, the MetaVerse, virtual reality("VR"), transhumanism, and artificial intelligence ("AI") are all buzzwords we have heard a lot of recently.
Particularly CHAT GPT. But what is all of this stuff? Should we take it seriously? The best approach is to run away from it all! No. It is currently an approach, but it differs from the one we promote.

In this episode, Logos confronts some of the profound questions and propositions of the rising technological revolution. Serious questions we consider, and you should too: What is technology? Is progress always positive? What distinguishes a man from a machine with a highly sophisticated information network? Are machines morally culpable?

Like most of our stuff, this discussion is just that; a discussion. As such, we invite you to dialogue with these concepts and realities emerging around us. Above all, to bring them into contact with THE divine Truth of Jesus Christ.

There must be something good, true, and beautiful about said advancement, but they are all rooted in something, in someONE. What are we to make of these developments?

Enjoy, and God Bless!
