Episode 8: Technology, Faith, and the Human Person | Dr. Joe Vukov, Loyola University Chicago

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I speak with Dr. Joe Vukov, a philosopher at Loyola University Chicago whose work explores the intersection of technology, ethics, and the Catholic intellectual tradition.Our conversation examines what it means to remain human in an age increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. We discuss the relationship between faith and reason, the importance of philosophical clarity in public debates, and how emerging technologies are not only changing what we do, but also who we become.We also look at the idea of the “post-human,” the role of Catholic social teaching in navigating technological change, and the moral responsibilities of institutions as AI continues to develop. Along the way, we reflect on human dignity, moral formation, and the deeper question at the heart of it all: what does it truly mean to be human?
