A prayer for those who develop and employ artificial intelligence technologies
Almighty and Everlasting God, who has given humankind the gift of intellect and the mastery to craft tools, we beseech thee to inspire and guide those who develop and employ Artificial Intelligence technologies. Endow them with wisdom and discernment that they may use these powerful tools to serve truth, justice, and the betterment of all humanity. Grant, we pray that these advancements may reflect the inherent dignity of all creation and foster a world that uplifts the common good rather than sowing discord or inequity.Keep us mindful, O Lord, of the profound responsibility that comes with these technologies. Help us guard against the perils of hubris, respect the privacy and autonomy of all individuals, and always remember that technology is a servant, not a master.Grant us the courage to ask hard questions, the humility to learn from our mistakes, the fortitude to make right what we have wronged, and the grace to celebrate the wonder of Your creation revealed through the lens of science and technology. All this we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord, who reigns with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
