Upcoming events

Sheldon Fernandez: The Theological Implications of Artificial Intelligence

Apr 8, 2025 - Apr 21, 2026
Watch this thought provoking talk by Sheldon Fernandez, co-founder of DarwinAI and Regis graduate, explores the theological implications of this powerful and new technology.

Theology and Artificial Intelligence – rarely do these words appear in the same sentence. In mathematical jargon, they are orthogonal complements of one another: in different spheres or planes, lacking obvious conceptual connection. And yet there is a connection, one that is relevant, topical, and - in light of the aforementioned analysis - supremely important.
