ONE YEAR OF CAMPUSWIDE AI 08 How is ChatGPT preparing students for interviews? How many messages have been sent to ChatGPT on campus? And what is a “MillerBot”?

HEART OVER HUSTLE 22 NICHOLAS CARRINGTON '10 | AI is contributing to growing feelings of isolation as people turn to artificial connection instead of godly community.

FEARLESS AND FAITHFUL 26 Dr. Rob McDole has been interviewed about AI, but he’s never been interviewed by AI. This innovative interview is full of practical wisdom about how to start using AI, discern healthy guardrails, and have productive conversations about AI use with family and friends. 02 22 WHY AI? ENGAGE: A CHRISTIAN FRAMEWORK FOR AI USAGE 16 JOHN DELANO AND ALINA LEO | Business professors John Delano and Alina Leo’s ENGAGE framework for AI usage has won awards in the business field and shaped minds in the classroom. Now, they’re bringing their framework to you with a user-friendly guide to ethical AI usage. The skyrocketing popularity of artificial intelligence (AI) is leading universities to ask themselves a big question: When information is easier to come by than ever before, how can universities adapt to help students thrive? The answer isn’t avoidance. It isn’t recklessness. Instead, Cedarville is engaging AI with biblical discernment — and encouraging students to do the same. Our goal is that each Cedarville graduate combines timely skills like AI usage with the timeless traits of wisdom and humility to reflect Christ well wherever their professional path may lead. “ Keep sound wisdom and discretion, and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck. Then you will walk on your way securely, and your foot will not stumble.” Proverbs 3:21b–22
