In this episode of the Try Tank Podcast, Father Lorenzo Lebrija introduces a compelling keynote address delivered by Dr. Miguel A. De La Torre, a leading voice in contemporary Christian ethics, during the Faithful Futures Conference. 

In his keynote, Dr. De La Torre explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and ethics, calling for a liberative ethical framework that centers the experiences and voices of the marginalized. Drawing from his deep roots in liberation theology, he challenges listeners to confront the moral implications of emerging technologies and the socio-economic inequalities they risk perpetuating. 

Dr. De La Torre critiques dominant Eurocentric ethical paradigms, highlighting how they often ignore the lived realities of race, immigration, and class. He warns of the systemic injustices that unregulated AI can reinforce and makes a passionate case for a community-based, justice-oriented ethic.

With scholarly insight and prophetic urgency, Dr. De La Torre calls on people of faith and conscience to engage AI not just as a technological issue, but as a deeply spiritual and ethical one. His keynote is a clarion call to approach the future with courage, creativity, and solidarity.
