As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly woven into daily life, many people are turning to AI-based chatbots and virtual companions for comfort, conversation, and emotional connection.
But behind the convenience and novelty lies a growing concern: What happens when technology begins to replace real human relationships?
Join us for an in-depth roundtable discussion exploring the social, emotional, psychological, and relational risks of relying on AI for companionship.
This event brings together counselors, relationship educators, and technology experts to help inform and present practical methods to help establish boundaries that can protect authentic relationships in a digital age.
This conversation is designed for parents, couples, educators, counselors, ministry leaders, and anyone concerned about the future of human connection!
Light lunch will be served.
Seating limited. Please RSVP by Monday, January 12th.
