Right now, we’re witnessing one of the most revolutionary shifts in history—the rise of AI. However, another movement is happening at the same time. 80% of U.S. adults now say the role of faith and religion in our lives is shrinking, as shown by a Pew Research Center study. The question is…as we see secularism affect all AI discussion, what consequences will arise from leaving God out of these society altering conversations? There hasn’t been a place for world leaders to comfortably talk about God’s safe guidance as it relates to our next steps with AI—until now. Drawing on experience co-founding the Yale School of Management AI Association, my team and I founded Tech of Eden to bring together the world’s most influential AI stakeholders, thought leaders, and innovators to bring this missing conversation across the world. The forum is diverse and interdisciplinary, with registered attendees like the former Chief Technology & Innovation Officer of NASA, the Head of AI Strategy & Operations at Google, and the Associate Dean at Emory Law who founded the “AI & the Future of Work Program”. Tech of Eden offers a safe space where your faith-informed values and practical expertise unite to create real solutions in AI ethics for the benefit of all humanity.This is your opportunity to collaborate with other key AI stakeholders with hearts open to Christ. You can join us for an interview with another world leader, help us connect with potential partners, or sign up for our virtual conference on March 1st, 2025. If you feel the Holy Spirit’s whisper that you should get involved, please visit TechOfEden.com to learn more.
