AI, Transhumanism, and Magnifica Humanitas: An Introduction to the Issues

Engaging Your Faith Online Series

Young people today can expect to live forever, but AI will run the world.” At least that is the view of some techno-enthusiasts. This session will consider artificial intelligence and transhumanism, and it will reflect on how Christians might think about future developments. As we do so, we will dip into Pope Leo XIV’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, which takes up these issues.

Engaging Your Faith is a series of short, online presentations that invite participants to reflect on what it means to be people of faith in the contemporary world. Experienced academics from Catholic Theological College present on a variety of topics.

Presented by Rev. Dr Chris Mulherin
