Can artificial intelligence ever possess true consciousness, free will, or human agency, or does its simulation of personhood merely deepen modern moral confusion? On Driving Home the Faith, host Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Dr. Mark Mitchell, Dean of Academic Affairs and Professor of Government at Patrick Henry College, co-founder of Front Porch Republic, and author of Breaking Babel: How a Mysterious Biblical Story Can Help Christians Survive the AI Revolution (Creed and Culture).
Dr. Mitchell addresses the philosophical and theological boundaries between human persons and large language models. He critiques the contemporary reduction of human intelligence to mere computational calculation, emphasizing that true knowledge is inseparable from love and the exercise of moral prudence (phronesis). Drawing on the biblical story of the Tower of Babel, Dr. Mitchell warns against the "diabolical" confusion caused by AI companions and simulated relationships, calling Christians to safeguard human dignity and honor the unique, God-given responsibility of being languaged beings created in the image of the Logos.
