  • The AITheist

    On this episode, Raleigh sits down with Dr. Michael Svigel to discuss his new fiction book, "The AITheist." The book is an entertaining read bringing up concepts such as theology, faith, doubt, the problem of evil, forgiveness, and more. Dr. Svigel presents a dialog between a former professor of theology turned atheist who is hired to dissuade a sentient AI from believing in the Christian God. The book exposes several real to life issues that will have the reader invested and contemplating their own experiences and conversations.
