Dr. Fernanda Psihas, a professor of physics and computer science at Franciscan University of Steubenville, has published an opinion piece in the Washington Examiner addressing the ethical and spiritual implications of artificial intelligence. In her article, Dr. Psihas compares the current developments in AI to the historical moment when nuclear weapons were first created, suggesting both require serious moral reflection.

She states: "Drawing a striking parallel between today’s AI revolution and the moral reckoning that followed the development of nuclear weapons, Dr. Psihas calls on society to consider not just what AI can do, but what it may cost us if we fail to safeguard the dignity of the human person."

The full article can be accessed through the Washington Examiner.
