SUMMARY:Lecture (in-person and Zoom) and Reception on November 30 in Edmonton\, AB.
DESCRIPTION:The St. Joseph’s College Lecture\, co-sponsored by the Edmonton Chapter of SCS will be held at 4:00pm local time (CT+ ) on Thursday\, Nov 30\, in St. Joseph’s College Boardroom on the campus of the University of Alberta.  The lecture\, entitled “Toward an Integrative Account of the Human Person”\, will be given by Dr. Sofia Carozza.  Dr. Carozza is a postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard Medical School. She uses computational modelling to study the role of the early environment in the development of the human brain. \nA reception will follow the lecture. \nTo register to attend by Zoom go to https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYtf-Chpz0rHNLk8_GNKv9d0KQrv35LYkTy#/registration \nAbstract of Lecture: \nDiscourse at the intersection of neuroscience and religion often stalls at questions about their compatibility\, likely due to the prevalence of the (false) conflict model of science and faith. However\, moving beyond compatibility to integration opens an enriching expanse of inquiry. Specifically\, discoveries in the neural and cognitive sciences are increasingly characterizing the brain as a situated\, relational\, and dynamic organ. These data\, which accord exceptionally well with a Christian theological anthropology\, offer us the possibility of deepening our self-understanding as persons and improving our practical and pastoral decision-making.

SUMMARY:Gold Mass\, Reception\, Dinner\, and Lecture on Nov 19 in Madison\, WI.
DESCRIPTION:There will be a Gold Mass at 3:00pm on Sunday\, Nov 19\, in Blessed Sacrament Church in Madison Wisconsin (2116 Hollister Ave.\, Madison\, WI). Afterwards\, in the Friary\, there will be a social at 4:00pm\, an early dinner at 4:30pm\, and finally a lecture at 5:30pm.  The lecture\, entitled “The Human Simulacrum – The Good\, Bad\, and Ugly of AI”\, will be given by Prof. Tim Carone of the Univ. of Wisconsin – Whitewater. \nAbstract of the lecture: Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers a rich simulation of human cognition. This talk examines the implications of these technologies on society\, faith\, and our ethical compass. What is good about AI?  AI showcases human innovation and creativity. Mirroring human thought\, these systems illuminate the intricacies of our creation\, drawing parallels with divine artistry.  What is bad about AI? The unchecked advance of AI risks pushing society towards a latent totalitarianism. Its omnipresence and surveillance potentials may encroach upon our cherished freedoms\, challenging our moral convictions.  What is the Ugly? The spread of AI threatens societal bifurcation. It may amplify biases and\, worryingly\, amplify the existing rise in humanist atheist policies\, overshadowing faith’s guiding light.  This talk delves into AI’s interplay with society and spirituality\, underscoring the distinction between simulating cognition and embodying divine consciousness and faith.  We must remember\, while AI can simulate the wonders of human cognition\, the divine spark of consciousness\, morality\, and faith can never be replicated by lines of code. \n
