The Ethics, Psychology, and Theology of AI (1st Edition) presents an interdisciplinary examination of artificial intelligence psychology (AIPsy), investigating how automated systems impact human identity, mental health, and spiritual belief. Written for scholars, researchers, theologians, ethicists, psychologists, and policymakers, the volume explores the implications of a technological singularity in which artificial intelligence may surpass human intellect.

The thematic coverage encompasses human-AI interaction, trust in AI systems, and moral responsibility within varied religious traditions. The text analyzes the legal rights and identity of creative intelligent machines, alongside the concept of collaborative agency shared between human and machine reasoning.

Structured into four main sections and featuring nine black-and-white illustrations, the book combines psychological research with theological reflection to assess human agency and automated decision-making. It equips researchers and institutional decision-makers with a structured framework for examining the societal and philosophical shifts driven by advanced machine intelligence.
