Abstract

Our paper presents an Artificial Intelligence platform with an integrated “moral compass,” perhaps an industry first on its own. It may be difficult to overstate the significance of this outcome, given the ever-greater ubiquitous use of Artificial Intelligence in society and the associated questions about responsibility and integrity. After the (temporary) demise of the public GDELT data platform, we started to build a replacement for GDELT, then set out to augment sentiment analysis in our own Artificial Intelligence platform with the notion of morality—and ended up with a treatise on Faith and Evolution. Inspired by the prolific Oxford scholar and author C.S. Lewis, our study suggests that morality is innate and that faith is a far stronger predictor of morality than evolution, perhaps even that faith is tantamount to morality.
