My AI Policy
This is an AI-Free Blog & Website
The use of AI continues to depress me. This is especially true when it comes to creative work of the heart such as art, music, and writing, where AI most noticeably cheapens the process and product.
I've previously written on my concerns in using AI for sermon writing.
So, although ideally this goes without saying, I want to ensure the reader that to the best of my knowledge no AI has been or will be used to produce content, written or otherwise, on this site.
I write (or edit the design of this site) simply for the joy of creating and the process involved. It doesn't really matter to me if a lot of people read what I write (and I'm sure they don't!).
For more on my concerns about AI and why I choose not to use it, as well as for why I'm still hopeful for the church in the age of AI, you can view my message below or find it here.
