Insofar as AI can streamline administrative tasks, that seems ideal. But there's something unseemly about using it for sermon prep: how does a pastor internalize Scriptures if AI is doing it for him? Reflection goes beyond the "time-saving" benefit of an outline processor or collaboration of Scripture passages.
I tend to agree with you. The preacher should steep in the Word of God and AI makes it all too convenient to skim it. This is part of the last posts I will do on AI. There are pretty important ethical issues to get right, too.
And now autocorrect, a subset of AI, has "corrected " me. I had written "collation of Scripture passages " but it *corrected * me with "collaboration...." Oy vey! A object lesson to beware using AI in sermon prep! LOL
