In this segment from the Beauty at Work podcast, Louis Kim—a former tech executive now training for chaplaincy and working at the intersection of AI, healthcare, and theology—describes a recent AI theology forum at the Vatican where physicians, ethicists, theologians, and industry leaders wrestled with one urgent question:

What are the final roles that must remain human as AI grows more powerful?

From hospitals without human staff to AI “chaplains” in elder care, the conversation exposes the real moral trade-offs behind claims that automation is “better than nothing.” Rather than offering easy answers, the forum surfaces a deeper challenge: how to navigate concrete situations where efficiency, cost, and dignity collide.

This is a rare inside look at how faith traditions are engaging AI not with fear or hype, but with moral seriousness.
