We live in an age of increasingly pervasive artificial intelligence, including Virtual Reality and the porn industry's many disturbing applications. When paired with a materialistic worldview, artificial intelligence can leave us more isolated and lonely. On today's edition of Family Talk, Jason Thacker, author of The Age of AI, addresses the Christian moral responsibility and accountability to our Creator. We're called to love God and our neighbors as we love ourselves, and we're created for physical community, not digital.
