As a business professor at @SamfordU University, I spend my days with the generation that will never know a world without AI. Some numbers from the past year have stayed with me:

* Four in ten young adults say spiritual advice from AI is as trustworthy as advice from a pastor.

* A third of teenagers have talked to an AI companion, rather than a person, about something serious and personal.

*Thirty-nine percent of Gen Z say they'd delay or skip a doctor's visit if AI told them their symptoms were low-risk.

What concerns me isn't that young people like AI. It's that a generation is learning to outsource the kinds of decisions that require wisdom, not just information, to a system that processes the world brilliantly but only ever from within it.

I wrote about this for The Gospel Coalition @TGC and to my own surprise, the framework I kept returning to was Ecclesiastes, a text roughly 3,000 years old. The Teacher ran his own experiment: pursuing knowledge and analysis to their limits, and found that even extraordinary wisdom, on its own, comes up short. I think that has something to say to our cultural moment.

Whatever your own convictions, I'd be glad to have you read it

AI may feel like a recent phenomenon, CBU has been preparing students to engage for more than a decade. In this #Baptist Press feature, Dr. Dan Grissom, prof. of #computerscience, discusses how #AI is creating new opportunities in #highereducation.

"My parents are fallible goofballs like anyone else. But there is something a bit different about the conversations at my dinner table—and something magical and rare about the people leading them."

Acknowledging what you don't know and asking for help is not weakness—it's maturity.

Today I was able to attend the 80th anniversary celebration for Pusan National University. It was a pleasure to speak during the ceremony and we also signed a new memorandum of understanding. I am grateful to President Choi Jae-weon for his support and leadership in this process.
