Smith, a theologian who writes about artificial intelligence and robots from a Christian perspective. Listen as he answers questions discussed in his recent book, Robot Theology: Old Questions Through New Media, including: How are robots changing us? Should there be moral limits to the ways we utilize AI? Do robots, such as today’s Starship Robots, have rights? Should we fear being manipulated by robots? Is developing AI too much like playing God? Plus, hear Joshua discuss the dangers of sex robots and what this type of AI could do to society and human relationships.
