There is growing speculation and concern about the role of AI in the future of the arts. Surprisingly, many Christians have already embraced the use of AI to generate images of saints. In this episode, Thomas Black-Roberts and Susannah Black-Roberts discuss why AI art is a terminological contradiction. It is similar to pornography in that it stirs up the desire to “create” without actually achieving the object of the desire in question. Technology should not replace human expertise. “God will not accept worship that we outsource.” Furthermore, the danger of demonic influence through AI should not be overlooked.
Susannah Black Roberts is the next senior editor. plow He has written for publications such as. First time, fair forward, front porch republic, just orthodoxand american conservative.
