The Catholic Guide to Artificial Intelligence

• Examines artificial intelligence through Catholic theology and philosophy
• Explores the distinction between human intelligence and machine imitation
• Considers AI's potential benefits alongside its moral and social risks
• Draws on Pope Leo XIV's teaching on safeguarding the human person
• Encourages responsible engagement with technology rather than fear

As artificial intelligence changes work, education, and daily life, Eric Sammons examines what distinguishes the human person from a machine. 

Subtitled Preserving the Distinction Between Man and Machine, this book brings Catholic theology, philosophy, and the author's software development experience to questions about intelligence, consciousness, and the soul.

Drawing on Pope Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas: On Safeguarding the Human Person in the Time of Artificial Intelligence, Sammons considers AI's economic, social, and moral effects. He explores potential benefits alongside risks, including humanoid robots and transhumanism - the effort to use technology to move beyond human limitations. 

Readers will find a framework for approaching AI responsibly rather than fearfully, while keeping human dignity at the center.
