AI Resources for Episcopalians

Artificial intelligence and coding processes in virtual space SBI 350780264.Artificial Intelligence is a rapidly developing field. You can find information about what is happening, and plenty of analysis of what it means in pretty much any technology focused publication.

Some of the publications I have found particularly helpful for an overview are ArsTechnica and The Verge. Gary Marcus‘ and Simon Willison‘s blogs are excellent but much more technical resources as well.

There are two podcasts that I’ve found particularly helpful for keeping up with cutting edge developments: Hard Fork and Decoder. Bot of the podcasts regularly feature interviews with leaders from the AI industry and both are produced by professional journalists focusing on the tech sector. (There are plenty of podcasts by programers and users. While those are helpful, they don’t typically have the same level of access or broad insight.)

There are a number of efforts underway in the Episcopal Church, in the wider Anglican Communion and in other Christian traditions.
