Building faith in the age of AI: The talk, the tool, and the testimony
Artificial intelligence is everywhere – in classrooms (https://www.ksl.com/article/51608230/utah-teachers-embrace-artificial-intelligence-as-new-classroom-rules-take-effect), on phones (https://www.ksl.com/article/news/utah/science-and-tech/how-ai-and-your-cell-phone-data-decide-which-stores-come-to-utah/51588384), and now even in scripture study (https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/church-jesus-christ-artificial-intelligence). But is that a good thing? In this special, Ethan Millard and Alex Kirry explore where AI fits with today's youth when it comes to faith. Can AI be a powerful tool for preparing talks, diving deeper into scripture study, and helping kids who don't know where to start? Or does leaning on it too much take away the spiritual discovery and growth that comes from doing the work yourself? Join us as we navigate growing up and building faith in the age of AI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts5Z64A0Vv4).
Hosted by Alex Kirry and Ethan Millard; produced by Caitlyn Johnston

Celebrating Temple Square: Find out why Temple Square still draws the world to Salt Lake City
Join KSL NewsRadio for "Celebrating Temple Square," a one-hour special looking ahead to the year-long Temple Square (https://www.templesquare.org/eng/home) Celebration, welcoming the public back to the Salt Lake Temple (https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/temples/details/salt-lake-temple?lang=eng) before its dedication in 2027.
Tickets (https://www.templesquare.org/eng/ticketing) may be available already, but the event doesn't start until the spring, so we'll give listeners an early taste of what the revamped Temple Square will bring to Utah, to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and to the world. We'll explore the new visitors' center, give you a sneak peek of some of the artwork, and dig into the stories and symbolism that make Temple Square a spiritual and cultural touchstone. We'll also explore what the celebration means to Latter-day Saints and nonmembers alike, and how Temple Square continues to shape Utah's identity, economy and sense of community.
