This is Behind the Blog, where we share our behind-the-scenes thoughts about how a few of our top stories of the week came together. This week, we discuss AI and spirituality.
JASON: I think we’ve generally carved out a pretty good lane for ourselves in the broader AI debate, writing about its current capabilities, its current harms, and the fact it was trained on stolen content without saying that it will never be able to do anything of use. We are often tinkering with AI so that we can write about it from an informed perspective, and so every once in a while, while I’m working on a story I will see something where it feels like AI could possibly be useful for some specific part of the reporting.
