The Sounds True Podcast Network. I think AI has really rapidly, you know, brought us all over the place. And there's a lot of fear, there's a lot of anxiety, there's this kind of dystopic view that AI is going to supplant us. And I don't think any of that's true. It can enhance
what we are, but we have to know what are we and what do we want. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, my guest is Sister Elia DeLio. Sister Elia is a Franciscan sister of Washington, D.C. who in her teaching work brings together a synthetic coherence of science and religion and offers a vision, a startling, in my sense, and empowering vision of human becoming. She's a trained scientist and theologian who holds the Josephine C.
Connolly endowed chair in theology at Villanova University. She's also the founder of the Center for Christogenesis and the recipient of two honorary doctorate degrees and the author of over 20 books, including The Not Yet God, Carl Jung, Tilhar Deshardin, and The Relational Whole, a book on re-enchanting the Earth, why AI Needs Religion, And her memoir, check out this title, Birth of a Dancing Star, My Journey from Cradle Catholic to Cyborg Christian. She's someone I think of as a person of the future who's here now, right here now with us.
