Community is one of the few things that AI will not as easily replace yet. It can already write a better sermon outline than most, but it can't bring people together (yet). Community will be even more important in the future moving forward for both streamers and pastors when an AI can be live 24/7 or releasing content constantly.
And absolutely agree. The human element of community remains to be irreplaceable. The two priorities I'm seeing when it comes to AI is to begin educating ourselves on how to best utilize the tool and then to take the extra time we got back from that utilization to build relationships within a community.
This is amazing! I literally just quoted ChatGPT in my sermon this week (as in yesterday!) after prompting it to write a sermon on the importance of baptism in The United Methodist Church. For a quick response, ChatGPT pretty much had all the theology that I would be looking for in an response by one of my students or an incoming candidate for ministry. I was impressed, and I had to share that with my congregation.
I'm interested in how we can learn more from these models and programs in order to utilize them in a way that is more functional towards our ministries.
Love to hear about successful implementation. I'm constantly brainstorming ways to make the back-end of administrative tasks quicker. I'd love to explore more possibilities. Most recently, I'm using the sermon transcript to create engagement questions throughout the week. Excited to see if it works!
