Today, our guest is Dr. Joseph Vukov, Associate Professor of Philosophy and Associate Director of the Hank Center for Catholic Intellectual Heritage at Loyola University in Chicago. His research and teaching explore questions at the intersection of ethics, neuroscience, and philosophy of mind, and at the intersection of science and religion. Joe is the author of three books, most recently, Staying Human in an Era of Artificial Intelligence. Dr. Vukov's writing has also appeared in venues including The Chicago Tribune, America Magazine, Religion News Service, Fox Opinion and many academic journals. He serves on the AI Research Group for the Dicastery for Culture and Education and is the current President of Philosophers in Jesuit Education. In 2025, he was awarded the St. Ignatius Loyola Award for Excellence in Teaching. We talk about what AI can and can't do, keeping humanity in our teaching, and much more!
