C.R. Wiley delivers his third lectureship at New Saint Andrews College, expanding on themes from his forthcoming book, St. Anthony and Surviving the Coming AI Apocalypse. He critiques Artificial intelligence's utopian and dystopian promises, warning of economic, theological, and existential threats, including transhumanism. Wiley highlights Ai’s psychological and social costs, from job displacement to chatbot-induced dependencies. He argues that humanity is being re-engineered under a posthumanist vision and proposes three disciplines—modeled after St. Anthony—to resist Ai’s encroachment. His solution: retreat from digital surveillance, reconnect with the physical world, and reclaim human vocation before AI reshapes reality itself.
