Reflection

“In the end, the way we use [artificial intelligence] to include the least of our brothers and sisters, the vulnerable and those most in need, will be the true measure of our humanity.” –Pope Francis

Prayer

God of all,

More and more each day we see the influence of artificial intelligence in our lives, whether through our phones and devices that keep us “connected”  or through so many new applications affecting our work. It can be scary if we allow it to be. Yet if we are wise and proactive, we know we can guide the use of such tools to enhance the lives of many, especially those we care for each day in our clinics and hospitals and wider communities.  Help us, therefore, to leverage our technologies in service to the greater good of humanity and to bring good help to those in need. Amen.
