Скачать или смотреть Worldbuilding & AI: Discernment, Tools, and Human Imagination with Joe Vukov

Catholic philosopher Joe Vukov joins the LegendFiction conversation to explore “Staying Human in an Era of AI,” Pope Francis’ warning about the technocratic paradigm, and why creativity is bigger than output. From Star Trek’s Data to Brandon Sanderson’s pushback, we dig into discernment: when AI supports imagination, when it hollows it out, and how Catholic worldbuilders can keep the work rooted in vocation, relationship, and sub-creation.
