Palantir CEO Alex Karp joins'Fox News Live' to discuss his company's innovative approach to tech development and artificial intelligence. American Christians are more likely to be skeptical about artificial intelligence and are particularly apprehensive about using generative AI in church services, according to a recent survey. Just over a quarter of Christians (28%) surveyed by Barna this fall said they were hopeful about AI development, while 39% of self-identified non-Christians said the same. Only a fraction of Christians surveyed agreed that "AI is good for the Christian Church," according to the Barna survey, conducted through a consumer research panel. Just 22% said they agreed AI would be positive for the church, while 30% strongly disagreed and 21% said they somewhat disagreed.

Violet Crown City Church Pastor Jay Cooper said that using AI to conduct a service at his church did not capture the essential elements required for Christian worship. After using AI software ChatGPT to compose an entire service at his Methodist church, Pastor Jay Cooper says he will not be doing that again. The pastor of Violet Crown City Church in Austin, Texas told Fox News Digital this week he found himself uncomfortable with how AI presented Sacred Scripture during the service last month, claiming it was not "spirit empowered" and did not have the "human element" through which God communicates to his congregation. "It can get relative real quickly. But then, you know, some of it was just goofy. It would make these odd jokes, these kinds of metaphors or things they would try to tie in just did not make any sense," Pastor Cooper told the outlet about the AI-generated service he held September 17.
