Stuart Amidon (Page 50 Marketing & Media) and Tom Chaldecott (Knox Thomas) separate hype from reality in the AI boom. They define true vs. “marketing” intelligence, show how chatbots already slash a 10-hour task to 6 minutes, and explain why a biblical worldview turns panic into productivity. Topics include meeting-note bots, email drafting, image creation, job-market shifts, and the producer/consumer divide—all grounded in God’s sovereign limits on technology.
