In today’s digital age, the launch of a new book can be a momentous occasion. On “The Ben Peterson Show,” we had the pleasure of celebrating the launch of Ben Peterson’s latest book, “When Intelligence Isn’t Human.” This book delves into the intersection of faith and technology, exploring how believers can navigate their spirituality in an ever-evolving tech world.
In the opening segment, Ben Zobrist shared his thoughts on how technology and artificial intelligence are rapidly changing the world around us. He expressed his concerns and hope for the young generation, particularly young athletes who are increasingly impacted by technology.
Zobrist passionately spoke about the importance of finding validation beyond our screens. He highlighted the risks associated with seeking self-worth through social media statistics, such as likes and follows, rather than through divine affirmation and genuine human connections.
Zobrist emphasized that the most authentic connections come from direct, human interactions,not algorithmically curated feeds. He believes technology and social media, while providing certain benefits, should not replace the face-to-face interactions that nurture our souls and faith.
He also shared personal reflections on his faith journey and how stepping back from technology occasionally helps him connect more deeply with God and appreciate the natural beauty of the world.
When asked if artificial intelligence might deepen the challenges faced during personal lows, Zobrist affirmed his belief that technology lacks the life and spirit needed to provide true support. Instead, it’s the human and divine connections that genuinely uplift and guide during times of struggle.
One of the core missions of Zobrist’s book is to reach over a million service members with its message. In the military, where technology is increasingly a part of everyday life, there’s a need for reminders that their value and validation lie beyond what machines can provide. Ben Peterson stressed the importance of supporting our military with resources that reinforce human connection and spirituality.
