Life Cannot Be Delegated: Why the Arc of AI Bends Toward Demoralization

The arc of AI bends toward the demoralization of the human person. As AI advances into more and more spheres of human life, we are invited to outsource an ever wider range of human activity to the solicitous technologies that promise freedom, efficiency, convenience, and optimization. But what we are invited to outsource—care, thought, judgment, action—these turn out to be essential to a fully and recognizably human existence, and together they form a virtuous loop that fuels our experience of meaning and purpose. In this talk, we'll explore these various human activities, how they are threatened by AI, and why we must take care to guard their place in our experience.
