What Does “Care of Souls” Mean in an Age of Artificial Intelligence?

Meghan Sullivan 

Wilsey Family College Professor of Philosophy, University of Notre Dame 

Webinar Description: 

This session explores emerging research on the foundational ethical and theological questions raised by artificial intelligence and rapidly evolving digital technologies. 

Drawing on the DELTA initiative—A Faith-Based Ethical Framework for Thinking About Powerful AI—the conversation will consider the common moral and spiritual pillars that unite Christian traditions as humanity enters an era shaped by powerful AI systems. The session will reflect on what “care of souls” means in a world where human identity, agency, and moral decision-making are increasingly mediated by technology.
