Augustine in the Algorithm: Can AI Ever Truly Be Conscious? with Guest Dr. Kevin Jung

from Deacs.AI

As AI begins to simulate human behavior, the lines between "processing" and "understanding" are blurring. But is an AI model actually conscious, or is it just a really efficient parrot? Join us as we welcome Dr. Kevin Jung to explore the philosophical and theological gaps between artificial intelligence and the human experience. Dr. Jung challenges the idea that AI can possess "personhood," arguing that while machines can out-compute us, they lack the private mental content required for true language and meaning. From the "colorblind" nature of Large Language Models to the Popes recent comments on technological innovation, we explore what it really means to be human in an automated world.
