Technology — A wise response to the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technology – especially AI – is changing the world in ways that would have seemed impossible until recently.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a new challenge to us all, and might bring profound changes to our patterns of work, and to our ethical responsibilities if we delegate decision-making to algorithms.
Artificial intelligence Leading a Lords debate in June 2026, Archbishop Mullally drew on Pope Leo's encyclical Magnifica humanitas to warn that we risk “unleashing AI into our lives and societies without the theological, philosophical and spiritual framework” to direct it.
I maintain that we will continue to see such a trend, and I expect a large influx into the church from the younger demographic, owing to ever-increasing pressures felt by all of us and in all areas of our lives, including the rise of social media, the development of artificial intelligence, political instability, and the climate crisis.
New issues will require our attention: safe and ethical use of Artificial Intelligence, resillience in the face of exponentially increasing climate impact.
Technologies such as artificial intelligence are rapidly reshaping how we learn, work, communicate and create.
Impact of Artificial Intelligence on human relationships and society During a House of Lords debate in June 2026 Archbishop Sarah Mullally’s central argument was that AI must be “pro-human”.
Artificial Intelligence and robotics
Younger generations are exploring faith and community differently, while developments in science, medicine, digital technology and artificial intelligence are raising new ethical and pastoral questions.
Artificial Intelligence and new technologies are changing our society, shaping culture and impacting individuals.
I am particularly interested in mission across class and cultural divides, the ministry of the Church in council estates and other underserved communities, and the ethical questions raised by technologies such as artificial intelligence and biotechnology.
Artificial Intelligence – AI is upon us and we are having to respond on the fly; the church needs to be a voice in challenging the ethics of AI.
It could seek to pioneer ethics of Artificial Intelligence and care for creation.
