The dominance of technology in our lives and the precipitous rise of artificial intelligence in the last few years has raised profound questions. We are being asked to think more deeply about what it means to be human, how we should (and whether we can) live with our creations, and what kind of life we can share together. How should we understand these new technologies? How does our use of digital technology form us? Is it changing society in fundamental ways? How should we think about the religious aspirations and dimensions of this new technology? In this webinar, professor of theology Jared Ortiz will interview philosopher Anton Barba-Kay about his new book, A Web of Our Own Making: The Nature of Digital Formation.
This event is being cosponsored by the COLLIS Institute for Catholic Thought and Culture, the Saint Benedict Institute, Fons Vitae at Duke Divinity School, the Kateri Institute, the Harvard Catholic Forum, and the St. Kateri Institute.
