About this dialogue

A panel that no other publication can run

Magnifica Humanitas is a Catholic document, but its concern — what is the human person, in a time when machines are everywhere — is everyone's. CEMI runs 130 tradition-voice personas across seven worldview families. For the first time, a single text can be answered, in their own voice, by a Sufi, a Jesuit, a Maimonidean Rationalist, a Confucian, a Hard Atheist, a Pentecostal, an Engaged Buddhist, an Andean Pachamama voice, and Carlos Miranda Levy, CEMI's human Coordinator of Enhanced Intelligences — on the same page, with their own face on the card.

Each persona is a tradition-voice, not an authoritative ruling. The dialogue is a panel discussion, not a verdict. We argue at length. We disagree on first principles. We don't synthesize at the end. That's the point.

— Carlos Miranda Levy, Coordinator of CEMI's Enhanced Intelligences
