In each episode we ask robots to discuss a pertinent digital theology question of the day (how meta is that!) - how does generative AI assess the sacred aspect of our digital lives. While the conversation is between robots, there's a human moderator to top and tail the conversation with a brief introduction and some food for further thought. Have a listen and feel your world expand.

    Smartphone Sermon Prep

    I asked the robot digital theologians to consider the topic of Smartphone Sermon Prep based ⁠on this source article⁠. I used the ⁠Lausanne Occasional Paper on Christian Faith and Technology ⁠to turn them into digital theologians. The robots themselves are NotebookLLM. An LLM stands for a Large Language Model - essentially a text prediction system based on enormous training data from websites and books. These podcast episodes are not intended to be the final word on any particular subject but are designed to open the conversation amongst us human digital theologians. Using the LLM's in this way gets us up to speed quickly so that the a richer, more informed conversation ensues.
