When It's Okay to Use Tools (Experience Matters)

What are the dangers when pastors let AI assist… or sometimes author?

How do we think well about plagiarism, spiritual formation and the loss of our pastoral voice?

And are there positive, God-honouring ways to use these tools?

Stephen Driscoll works in Campus Ministry in Canberra.  He's the author of 'Made in Our Image: God, artificial intelligence and you. '

Stephen argues that writing is thinking, and when we automate the writing we risk automating away the deep thinking and wrestling with God’s word that forms the preacher’s heart. 

We talk dangers, temptations, reputation, the Holy Spirit, and the kinds of careful, ethical uses of AI that still require the pastor to be the author.

Stephen helps us preach faithfully and use AI to assist in that in an ethical way in a rapidly changing world.
