This sermon will be based on an LLM’s (A.I.’s) responses to questions about today’s society while personifying my favorite thinker; 20^th century social psychologist, philosopher, and humanist, Erich Fromm. Explain the rise of authoritarianism in our world today? How do we cope? Are there meaningful reasons to hope we will get through this? We’ll consider Fromm’s responses to these questions and more.
