Artificial intelligence continues to dominate Americans’ lives, with new technologies transforming the way people interact with brands, the Internet — and more. Nick Skytland, vice-president, AI developer, research and product at Gloo, recently explained the impact of artificial intelligence and why his organization is on a mission to investigate how AI contends with the Christian worldview.
Gloo recently launched its Flourishing AI effort, an effort to research benchmarks surrounding how faith is perpetuated and handled in the AI space. Skytland argues that mainstream AI models default to generic or secular advice rather than biblical or Christian guidance, even when faith-based prompts are given.
“Gloo is a technology company that serves the faith ecosystem, and, back in July, we had released some research that we call Flourishing AI,” Skytland said. “And it's just a benchmark that's really grounded in seven dimensions of human flourishing based on a lot of research that's out there." Gloo's focus is on the Christian worldview and understanding how this dynamic shows up through various AI tools. "We really think that this might be the first comprehensive framework of its kind, measuring AI alignment for human flourishing from an authentic biblical worldview," Skytland said.
The researcher said he tends to be a "half-full optimist" and believes "AI is incredible" and has a lot of promise. Still, there are some caveats and worries. "I think there's something that we really do need to understand here — that AI does have a built-in bias," Skytland said. "It does have a built-in, essentially hidden worldview, especially to the average user." This is why Gloo has gone so deep into its efforts to try and discern what is happening within the AI framework.
